Story
We’ve had her for a few years now and every year it becomes more evident that she would thrive elsewhere. She needs a house with a routine that she fits in better and that’s not something we can provide for her. She’s very sweet, patient, and loving. She has the boxer wiggle butt and likes to speak but rarely barks. She is not fully house trained. We have tried but it comes down to we can’t give her consistency. She knows how to go outside but does not signal that she needs to go. I think she needs more routine for this. She has had one incident of dog reactivity so I believe she’d be best in a single dog household. She could be socialized if someone’s willing to. She has a bit of separation & storm anxiety and has medicine to help. She can escape a fence but is leash trained. She won’t pull on a leash at all. She’s very smart and can learn commands when she’s taught. She just needs more than our family can give for her at this point

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.My name is Jasper. That’s probably not my real name because my story is unfortunately a lot like many other unwanted pets. I was left to fend for myself not knowing where my next meal would be. Luckily I was rescued and given my chance to shine. I have proven that I really really love people regardless of my early start with humans. I want to be loved so much that I will beg for just a head rub and lap snuggles. Yes I’m a big strong boy but I’m really a small lap dog disguised in a hound dog body. Do I give slobbery kisses, why yes, is there a problem with that? I love to run and play but if given a choice I’d rather be by my persons side. I would make a great adventure companion. Riding shotgun by your side wherever you go, that would be my doggie dream. Currently I share a foster home with lots of other all size dogs but I would really like to be your only ride or die dog. I’ve gone so long without one on one attention that I’m constantly competing for the attention. Am I perfect? Heck no but I’m a diamond in the rough, clay ready to be molded. I’m looking for my person who is ready to be my furever person. One who will love me and never give up on me. I’ve been waiting a long time to just be loved. Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.July 6, 2025, 12:45 pm

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Frederick is our sweet little old man. He was found as a stray and landed in a shelter. We rescued him soon after. He was a shelter favorite and needed a dental asap. He also had some skin issues but now his skin has cleared up and he is flea free. He immediately blended in with his foster family of dogs and new humans. He loves to play with his ball and sunbathe on the deck. He is definitely a lap dog but he does love his special chair. Good with all dogs and cats, neutered and heartworm negative.

Story
This remi, I acquired him from someone that had him since he was a puppy. He is a good dog, just big and strong. I have had back surgeries and did not realize what it would do to my back to feel a dog pull on a leash... He doesn't try to run away on the leash he just pulls ahead of you. He is not fixed, very friendly, energetic but also a big lap dog at the same time.

Benji is a great male husky, who loves to lay on his back during nap time. He is great with other pets as well as kids. He is loveable and playful. He is a male husky who will be turning 5 soon. He is house trained, wont chew your shoes or bite your furniture I would love for him to go to a home that has the dedication and time for him as well as a yard for him to be free in.
