Story
Arthas is three years old will be four on December 21, he was one of 10 puppies born that day, he originally wasn't supposed to be staying with us, but it was hard enough to find homes for the other. Arthas is a loving, energetic pup, he has a lazy side and a playful side, he will chase frisbees, squirrel, rabbits and watch after your house and property (only letting you know when someone or something is around by barking). Arthas does good with likeminded dogs and would do better if he was fixed. He is curious and adventurous and needs someone who can give him more time and attention, he is still susceptible to training and adjusting but has been trained to listen follow and sit.

Quavo seems like a very happy dog.  This 8 year old boy was adopted in 2016 but ended up back at the shelter as a stray this past September.  He seems great with other dogs, friendly with people, and has a very gentle personality.  Plus he smiles a lot!  Quavo is really a great dog. ##1838602##

Story
Dobby was picked up as a stray by his local shelter.  He warms up slowly, but when he knows you he likes to be petted and will sit on your lap. He will keep you entertained when he  dances on his hind legs to get a treat.  He is great little dog and deserves a wonderful home so that he will never have to worry again about being safe, or where his next meal will come from.   ##1790571##

Good with kids, Good with dogs, Good with cats, Needs special attention, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
It would be hard to find a cuter puppy than our sweet Mary.  At two months of age she only weighed 3 pounds 7 ounces.  She had a pretty rough start.  Her pregnant mom was dropped off at a house in the country and gave birth one week later.  Mary is a special needs dog because she needs someone that can be with her most of the time.  She just Loves to be held.  Her vet thinks she has some neuroligic issues.  Sometimes she will keep walking in circles over and over.  If you pick her up and hold her she will usually calm down.  She is great around other pets but we don't think a home with young children would be best for her.  If you really want some Puppy Love, please inquire about Mary! ##1995051##
