Story
This dog is part of our shelter outreach program where we take dogs from overcrowded shelters in hopes of finding them a forever home here! We generally do not have much background info on them and cannot guarantee they are housebroken.  They are all up to date on vaccines, spayed/neutered and microchipped.    We’ve got 7 mystery mix pups (hound? terrier? cattle dog? who knows! ) — 10 weeks old, about 10 lbs now, and likely to grow into medium-sized dogs. A doggie DNA test would be a fun surprise with these cuties!    4 girls & 3 boys! Puppies require lots of training & exercise. They’ll need patient, active homes ready to tackle housebreaking, obedience training, and playtime galore. If you’ve got the energy and commitment, one of these adorable little nuggets might just be your new best friend.  Come meet them soon—puppies like these won’t last long! Looking for active homes, fenced yards, and pre set obedience training is a requirement.    *Per JSAC policy, puppies and kittens under 6 months will not be adopted to families with children under the age of 6 years.September 16, 2025, 6:30 pm

Story
Koji is an 11-year-young lovebug, born March 3, 2014, with a heart full of affection. He’s had one owner his entire life, and originally from Jacksonville, FL. Koji truly adores everyone he meets—he is friendly, gentle, and incredibly loving. He does wonderfully with dogs, cats, children, and adults, making him an easy and joyful addition to almost any home. (He actually lived with a cat for 10 years!) Koji is fully vaccinated, house-trained, and still enjoys walks, outdoor time, and play — followed by his favorite activity: cuddling. Koji would thrive in a loving home with a kind, attentive family. He’d be happiest with a backyard to explore or plenty of outdoor playtime and walks if a yard isn’t available. Koji would also enjoy having another dog companion and would make a wonderful furry friend for a home with a resident pup. If you or someone you know can give Koji the home he deserves, please reach out. Sharing this post could help him find his perfect match 💛🏡
