Story
Dog was left behind and never got in touch with an owner. She’s very very energetic but roughly two years old I would say. Playful with other dogs as far as I have seen. She chews on quite a bit and does not really prefer all her many chewing toys unless you interact with her with her toys. We let her roam but don’t prefer her on furniture so keep her in her cage. Won’t roam if someone is present and will stay in her general area. Sneaky in other words. But she’s sweet and good overall.

Story
Meet Riley 🖤🤍 Riley is a beautiful 6 y/o black Staffordshire Bull Terrier with white markings, born January 1st. She is house trained and knows basic commands. Her favorite thing is being outside, she could play fetch all day and would make the perfect outdoor companion. Riley is good with children but needs to be the only pet in the home, as she does not get along with other animals. She also needs someone willing to continue working with her on leash walking. She is not spayed and experiences anxiety in stressful situations, especially at the vet. Because of this, she has previously snapped while being muzzled during a veterinary visit. And requires anxiety meds in stressful situations. And does not do well in kennels either. This is an incredibly difficult decision, and my only goal is to find Riley a loving, experienced home where she can live her best life.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Hi my name is Mimi! Before you get all excited because I am a poodle, please read all about me. I am a sweet girl, but I must have been used mostly for breeding because I am cautious of new people. I will literally run away from you if you move too quickly and when you do pick me up, I will shake even though I eventually will lean into your touch. It was said that I was about 5 years old when I came into rescue. My teeth were so bad that it was rrally hard to tell. Unfortunately my foster recently noticed that I was coughing and took me back in for a other exam. The vet found a slight heart murmur this time and I am currently on medication for this. I am doing great and my cough has disappeared. I will be on this for the rest of my life. Otherwise I am a very happy and energetic girl. I get along well with all dogs and cats. I would do best with no children as it take me a while just to warm up to adults. I would like an older quieter family with a fenced in yard so I cam go outside to potty and run and play. I need someone who is going to be patient and allow me to trust them so they can spoil me like I deserve to be. Please consider giving me a life like I have never had and apply for me at www.allmuttsmatter.org.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.September 8, 2026, 12:41 am

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.My name is Cinny and I am looking for a forever family! I am your typical puppy full of energy and love. I would like to have an active family with a fenced in yard so we can play outside. I love running and zipping all around my foster family's yard. I do great with other dogs and I love people. I am doing well with house training as long as you can get me outside and listen to my cues. I am fully vetted including being spayed. Toys and treats are my next favorite things after my people. I can be the best snuggler once you play with me to get some of this puppy energy out, so long walks or play time in the yard is what I am looking for. If you think we are a fit please go to www.allmuttsmatter.org and apply for me!Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.March 17, 2026, 2:35 pm
