Story
Cali is a five year old lab/ hound mix. Cali is an amazing dog! She loves kids and is very calm. She loves to play in the yard. She is 100% house broken and doesn’t require a lot of maintenance. She loves her naps and loves to cuddle. I am sad writing this because our family just grew larger. We have twin girls and a 6 year old. I go to work in the office and my wife stays home with the kids. Unfortunately, my wife can’t handle three kids and Cali all at one time. I am looking for her to have a forever home with a lot of laughs and cuddles. She is an amazing dog!

Story
Meet Bass! He is a sweet large breed lab mix who was born in October 2021. Bass is a stupendous ball player.  He chases the ball, brings it back, and drops it at your feet so the game can go on and on! Bass was adopted when he was a young puppy and was hit by a car before he was surrendered back to the rescue.  Luckily, he only had superficial wounds and recovered in a few weeks time.  He doesn't let his past bother him at all and is a volunteer favorite! Bass prefers a home with a fenced in yard or an active lifestyle as he loves to run and play!  Bass is around 75 pounds of pure muscle and is tall which compares him to a Great Dane Size.  Bass loves to go for rides in the car and would be happy to accompany you on your errands.  He sits nice and loves to go anywhere.  Bass is an excellent watch dog and is quite strong.  He prefers a home with adults and older children who can handle this big mush.  Although Bass gets along with other dogs, it does take him a little bit of time to warm up at first.   Bass is housebroken, neutered, up to date on vaccines, microchipped, and knows basic commands. He is a little more cautious with men but once he smells you and trusts you, he is your new best friend. After he gets to know someone, he shows them love by snuggling next to them and asking for belly rubs.  You could not ask for a better dog to add to your family!
