Story
Axel is a one year old pomsky. The first thing you'll notice about Axel are his eyes. They are two different colors blue with black. He is a beautiful, sweet, playful, energetic, happy, and smart dog. Axel still has his puppy energy! He wants to play but can absolutely relax and lay with you on the couch. Axel would do best in a home that has a yard where he can run around. He loves finding sticks and running with them. He also would be better to be either by himself or with another dog. He should not be in a home with a cat. Axel LOVES the snow. He will roll around in the snow and will bury his body in it. Axel is trained! He is crate trained (with treats), he is house broken and he will let you know when he needs to go out. He can sit, go to place, come when called, and knows the word off (to get off the couch or counter grazing). He loves the command "ready, set, go" when playing outside and then find joy to watch him run at full speed.

Story
Meet Roxie! She is 7 months and 11 lbs. Our best guess is that Roxie and her siblings are all terrier/poodle mixes. All we know is that they’re relatively low shedding. Roxie and some other pups were rescued from an unsafe hoarding situation. But Roxie hasn’t let her circumstances affect her too much! She is a spitfire and loves zoomies… she is good with all dogs big and small. She’s also good with cats! She also loves playing with toys. She’s “learning” fetch- as in she learned she loves when you throw toys but doesn’t feel the need to bring it back to you! After a nice play session and getting her energy out, she enjoys a nice cuddle session with her human. Because of where Roxie came from, we will be looking for a patient family who will help her overcome her history, help her overcome any new experiences (which will be everything), work on potty training and how much fun this world can be!

🐾 Meet Ollie, Your New Adventure Buddy! 🐾 Looking to add some energy, love, and tail wags to your life? Meet Ollie, a 4-month-old male puppy who’s ready to find his forever home! 💙 ✨ About Ollie: 🐶 4 months old 🐾 Aussie / Heeler mix (best guess) 📏 Expected to be medium-sized when fully grown 🚽 Crate trained and working on potty training. He's doing great when you pick up on his cues! 🐕 Good with dogs 🐈 Currently living with cats 👧👦 Good with children (but like a typical puppy, he's learning boundaries and can be a bit jumpy... Also, please understand and expect those puppy teeth, as he is teething) Ollie is a smart, active little guy who’s eager to learn and explore the world. With his working-breed background, he’ll thrive in a home that can keep his mind and body busy. An active family is a must... think walks, hikes, playtime, and continued training to help him grow into the amazing companion he’s meant to be. He’s affectionate, playful, and full of puppy charm... the kind that will steal your heart in seconds. 🥰 If you're ready for puppy kisses, daily adventures, and investing time in training a smart, loyal best friend, Ollie is your guy! 📩 Fill out an adoption app!

Story
Meet Juno 🐾 Juno is a 2-3 year old sweetheart with a gentle soul and the softest eyes. He came to us under heartbreaking circumstances after his owner was found deceased. Through it all, Juno has remained incredibly loving, loyal, and calm- just quietly hoping for his next person to love. Juno isn’t looking for chaos or constant activity. He’s a low-energy, easygoing companion who would thrive with an older adopter or someone who simply wants a best friend to relax with. His favorite hobbies include: 🚗 Car rides (he’s the BEST copilot) 🌤 Short “mini adventures” - think coffee runs, scenic drives, or a stroll around the block 🛋 Lounging nearby while you read, watch TV, or enjoy a peaceful afternoon Juno is past the puppy phase and perfectly content just hanging out. He doesn’t need much-just a steady routine, a comfy spot to nap, and someone to share quiet moments with. If you’ve been looking for a loyal companion to keep you company and bring gentle joy into your days, Juno may be your perfect match. Juno would prefer to be your one and only! Due to Juno's history and his bond with his original owner, Juno does prefer (and feel much more comfortable around) women. He may take awhile to warm up and trust men. His ideal adoptive family would work on his confidence building and allow for slow intros to men, so Juno can decompress and learn to trust Let’s give this deserving boy the loving, peaceful home he’s waiting for. 💙
