Story
Arlo is good with people, and he is 6 years old. He can be aggressive with other animals though. Recently he had an incident with a cat he has lived with all of his life. I work 7am to 7pm on most days, and unfortunately he is the product of a divorce. Arlo needs more room to run, more attention, and it seems that he would be better in a single animal home, however he might just need a change. He is very loving (lots of kisses/licks). This is heart breaking but unfortunately it is unsustainable and not fair to him. I would love to find him a great home where he can be the awesome dog that I truly know he is.

Story
Meet Cooper, a sweet and loyal 5-year-old pup looking for a calm, loving home. Hss a playful companion who enjoys spending time with his favorite people and loves a good game or walk. Due to some anxiety around young children, he would do best in a quieter, adult-only household where he can feel safe and relaxed. He has Addison’s disease, which is well-managed with daily medication and regular vet care, and he continues to live a happy, active life. He hasn’t had much interaction with other dogs, so slow introductions would be best if you have pets. If youre looking for a gentle, devoted friend to share your days with, cooper would make a wonderful addition to your home.

Story
Meet Mac! This handsome boy came to us in April 2024 ago when he was just 4 mos old. As with most black dogs, he gets overlooked time and time again. Mac is a sweet boy that is now 1 ½ yrs old. His story is a typical one in the South. He was picked up as a stray in Shreveport, La when he was just a little baby and brought to a high-kill shelter. We know the odds of him having a happily ever after were not very good. Mac is fully vetted (vaccines/microchipped/neutered). He is good with other dogs (as long as not dominant), cats unknown, and really good with kids! He is a sweet boy that just wants to be loved and appreciated. He is also housebroken and crate trained.

Medjai is a fun, loving, sweet companion that is ready to play or eat anytime. He is very affectionate and wants to be your shadow. He is your favorite cooking companion waiting for any bits to fall to the floor. He is extremely loyal, although cautious at first to new people once he gets to know you will be your best friend.
