Story
Hi there, I'm Apollo. I was pulled from a kill shelter in Kansas. I had so much more life to live! I'm a gentle soul, and I've been told looking into my eyes is like getting a warm hug...but not to worry, I also love to give snuggles! My favorite thing to do is to be with people. I love to ride in the car, go for walks, sit on the porch, or settle down for a snuggle session. I've been informed I'm a very faithful companion. I'm just looking for my special person. Until then, I'll be waiting on the porch keeping my eye out! If you're interested in Apollo, instead of emailing through this site, please fill out our adoption application at https://form.jotform.com/221395065454154. For the right family, we will arrange transport. No home is too far away when it’s forever.

My brother and I are a bonded pair looking for our forever home. We are 2 years young and around 50 pounds. Our family got us as puppies at the start of Covid and dumped us 2 years later when it was back to their "normal lives" that didn't include us. We love to be together, but even more, we love to be with our person. Let us know when you find them.....they are in for DOUBLE the snuggles!

Story
I sat in a kill shelter for as long as I can remember with a shattered pelvis and both of my hips broken. I couldn't even stand. I sat there for months and finally, my time was up. I didn't even have any pain meds, but I had so much love to give. Every time a shelter employee came by, I wiggled in hopes of getting a moment of their affection. I adore human love! The only thing that got me through it was thinking of a forever home. I got rescued just in time and went straight to a vet for surgery. Now, I have brand new hips and am back to the wiggle butt I was born to be! I am still waiting for my forever home though. Won't you please consider letting me dance around with you and show you all the love I have to offer? I am a HUGE KISSER and love to give smooches of gratitude all day long. I love other dogs, just ones that are really rambunctious scare me a bit, so I feel safer around more relaxed pups. I love toys and have so much fun throwing them around the yard. I also love laying and cuddling on the couch and could do that all day. I'm the most perfect girl, and I hope you will let me be yours!

Meet Benji, the most adorable lil’ spitfire! Absolutely nothing holds this boy back, especially not that his hind legs don’t move. He is absolutely the life of the party- a true social butterfly. He loves to roll up and introduce himself to everyone on his wheely walks and when out of his wheels, he loves to roll around and play with all the other pups. Benji will keep you laughing and so inspired! He can also curl up on your lap or in his bed with a bone for hours on end. Benji may need a little help here and there, but this boy is special for too many amazing reasons to list. He will be such a blessing to any home and a constant reminder of how wonderful life really is!

Story
Buddha is likely the absolute sweetest boy you will ever meet. Despite his horrible past and the many scars to prove it, this boy wants nothing more than to give kisses and get any cuddles and loving you will give him. He is quiet as can be and will often retreat to his cozy crate. Even more, he loves to curl up as close to you as possible for movies, sleep or just gentle reminders that he is safe and no one will hurt him ever again. Buddha needs a home that will be gentle, patient and committed to helping him understand he is safe and sound. Buddha was pulled from a kill shelter in Texas on his very last day, after months of waiting, which didn't help his battered confidence. Yet, he emerged wanting to learn and wanting to love. His resilience is just so inspiring! He is perfect on a leash, loves toys and chews and even gets along with other dogs. Buddha would make the very best at-home office buddy for anyone that works from home, as he loves to just curl up at your feet without ever a peep. Buddha is happiest with his person close- it keeps him feeling safe. But, if need be, when you have to leave, he will go curl up in his bed and patiently wait for your return, when which, his tail will thump exuberantly at even the sound of your voice saying his name, alerting him of your return. He is truly just such a happy, loyal and ridiculously loving boy that will cherish you! More and more, Buddha has adorable bursts of playful glee when he's outside in the yard but will retreat to your feet realizing he let his guard down, nervous he will get in trouble. Buddha deserves a home that will nurture his amazing, sweet spirit and remind him often, how safe and adored he is. He's an absolute angel, and he will be such a blessing to any forever home. If you're interested in Buddha, instead of emailing through this site, please fill out our adoption application at https://form.jotform.com/221395065454154. For the right family, we will arrange transport. No home is too far away when it’s forever.
