Story
This sweet girl deserves a second chance at the happy life she has always deserved. She was abandoned and thrown out on the side of the road, left behind through no fault of her own. Thankfully, we were able to take her in, get her the veterinary care she needed, and make sure she received all of her vaccinations. We have been fostering her and giving her the love, care, and safety she deserves while we search for the perfect forever family.Despite the rough start she had in life, we want her next chapter to be filled with love, security, and happiness. She deserves a family who will see how special she is and make her a permanent part of their lives — someone who will never abandon her and will love her unconditionally.We are looking for a responsible, loving adopter who understands that every dog deserves patience, kindness, and a safe place to call home. Adopting her means giving a deserving soul the second chance she needs and deserves. She needs a family she can count on forever!

Story
My nephew got kain from the shelter and when he moved he couldn’t take him with him so we tried to keep him but our health isn’t good and we can’t handle him he is a good loving dog but is hyper. He needs to be where he can run and play and needs someone that’s able to take up time with him if that were possible he would be the best dog anyone could ask for. Where we live he can’t stay outside and my wife works so I’m with him but I can’t handle him outside long because of my heart and lung condition

Story
My husband and I rescued “Rowdy” a few years back. We immediately changed to Murphy. We thought “Rowdy” was meaning he was ROWDY. He is DEFINITELY one that loves to run and boy oh boy can he run and I mean FAST!!! He’s EXTREMELY loyal once he chooses his “person”, but he can be a handful. Tugs while walking, etc. but listens at the same time. He’s a hard one to crack test wants and loves to sit on a lap lol. However, he can be aggressive sometimes or maybe we’re just “over worried“ so when we have guest over, we normally put him up just because my husband and I get worried. Sadly my husband has been ill for some time and I just don’t have to means,the ability (due to work hours etc..) to give him the outside time, exercise b,etc…he most certainly deserves. Becoming too much for me.Sidenote…we are unsure of his actual breed.

Good with kids, Good with dogs, Needs experienced adopter, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Bud is a handsome Siberian Husky estimated to be at least 5 years old. He has striking blue eyes and a fun, affectionate personality. He is energetic, playful, and loves spending time with people. Bud’s owner passed away earlier this year, and our family has been caring for him ever since. We are now looking for a responsible, loving adopter who can provide him with a permanent home where he will be treated as a member of the family. Bud would do best with an adopter who understands the needs of the Husky breed and can provide plenty of daily exercise, mental stimulation, attention, and structure. He is an active and intelligent dog and would benefit from additional training to help him stay calm and continue developing good manners. We would love to find Bud a home with someone who has experience with Huskies or other high-energy breeds and is committed to giving him the exercise, training, companionship, and love he deserves.

Not good with kids, Not good with dogs, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Our sweet feisty Roxie Bella is a huge ball of energy! She could run around and play for hours. She has the funniest little personality and truly a kind heart. Last year we welcomed our sweet baby girl and Roxie became very protective over her and I, and would become increasingly stressed out if our other dog was near. Now that our daughter is walking and touching EVERYTHING, I noticed Roxie seems to always be on guard and in a stressed state with our dog and baby. Roxie is truly a sweet girl and we love her dearly and that’s why this decision has been so hard to make. But after separation and trying to train her unfortunately I just think she needs a different environment than where she is currently. Roxie’s ideal family would be very active playful people who don’t mind running crazy with her! I think she would also thrive in an environment with no other animals or small children. Roxie has a lot of love to give and I want her to have a fulfilling life❤️

Story
Delilah is a 9 year old female pitbull mix. Her birthday is January 12,2018. We are sure the mother is a pitbull but are not sure of the father’s breed. We believe she could be mixed with a shepherd as well. She is a very loving and sweet dog. She is high energy and loves to be outside and play. She would need to be the only dog in the home. We also have a 12 lb chorkie in the home.We are currently having to switch the two dogs out between crates to avoid any conflict. We had to recently euthanize our 15 yr old male pitbull due to age but they were best friends. She does well with our older cat though. She does take Zenrelia for allergies and Trazodone as needed for anxiety such as for thunderstorms. This is breaking our hearts having to rehome Delilah as she has been part of the family since she was born.We just feel with the current situation she would be better off in a home where she would not have to be crated so often and get all the attention she deserves.
