Story
🐾 Hey everyone, it's Koda here! 🐾 I wanted to take a moment to introduce myself and share my incredible journey with all of you. You see, I was just moments away from being euthanized at the shelter, but luckily, fate stepped in and saved me. Why, you ask? Well, it turns out I have a very specific preference - I prefer to live alone with an amazing family I hope one day to find. And let me tell you, I am one praying to find a home soon. But that's not all, my friends. Did you know that I have been in school? That's right, my mad training skills are unmatched! If you're a cuddle enthusiast like me, then we are destined to be cuddle buddies. So, hit me up and let's cuddle our hearts out together! Now, if you're reading this and you're on the lookout for a charming new best friend, guess what? I'm on the same page! Age and looks don't matter to me, but just in case they matter to you, I'm approximately 8 years old and as charming as can be. Take a peek at my photos, and you'll see what I mean! I've been neutered and fully vetted, and I came to the shelter as a stray with an injured eye. The doctor said it needed to be removed, but hey, that just means I can rock a Popeye or pirate costume for Halloween! Arrr, matey! Let me tell you a little more about myself. I'm a very sweet and well-trained boy, and I hardly ever bark. While I may not win any barking awards, I guarantee I'll win your heart with my beautiful smile. If a night of snacks, snuggling, and sitcoms sounds like your idea of a perfect evening, then we might just be a match made in heaven. Life hasn't always been easy for me, and I've been let down by my previous owners. But deep down, I'm just a sentimental soul searching for my forever family to love. Are you that family? My perfect match would be someone with a fenced-in yard so I can stretch my legs and run freely. I prefer to be the only fur baby in the house because, well, I'm a one-man show. People often say I remind them of Leonardo DiCaprio in The Titanic, probably because of my stunning blue eyes and unwavering devotion to those I love. When I'm not admiring your every move, I'll be right by your side, cuddling away. So, what do you say? Wanna be besties? Please, please, please share this post with any rescue, family, friends, or anyone you know who might be willing to foster me without any other animals. I know it's like asking for a miracle, but I believe there's a family or person out there who will give me the love and care I deserve. I'm such a sweet, loving, laid back dog, and I just want a chance at a good life. Let's spread the word and find my forever home together! Thank you all for your support and love. 🐾❤️

Story
Introducing King, a 2-year-old Pitty mix who is ready to find his forever home! Despite a rough start in life, King is the sweetest and most gentle dog you'll ever meet. He was found in July after being hit by a car and left on the side of the road. Thankfully, he received the necessary surgeries to fix his broken hips with bone plates and wires. King weighs around 50 pounds and is in good health. He is heartworm negative and on prevention, as well as up to date on his vaccines. He is not currently on any medications. Although he is not neutered yet, he will be before going to his forever home. This lovable pup gets along well with both men and women, as well as children. He is also good with other dogs and cats, making him a great addition to any family. King is house trained and has a low energy level indoors. He enjoys playing ball and with fluffy toys, and he is leash trained. King is a great travel companion and loves car rides. He has no issues with riding in a vehicle. He has been eating Purina 1 lamb and rice dog food, but his diet can be adjusted to suit his new home. As of now, King doesn't have any future medical expenses, but he may require follow-up appointments for his hips as he gets older. He is officially ready for a forever home or a foster-to-adopt situation. If you're looking for a sweet and gentle companion who will bring joy to your life, consider giving King the loving home he deserves. Reach out to the appropriate contact for more information and to start the adoption process. Let's help King find his happily ever after!

Story
Meet Scruffy, a 3-year-old brindle Pit with a short coat who is in need of a new foster or foster-to-adopt home. Unfortunately, the current foster can no longer care for Scruffy due to family court requirements. Scruffy is a friendly and affectionate dog with a playful and curious personality. He is smart and loves to engage in interactive activities. While he may be independent at times, he is also loyal and loves to shower his humans with kisses. Scruffy is athletic and enjoys staying active. He is neutered and up to date on his vaccinations. Scruffy is house-trained and good with children. He also gets along well with dogs his size, but his compatibility with cats is unknown. Scruffy is currently in boarding at our vets office. If you are interested in fostering or foster-to-adopting Scruffy and providing him with a loving home, please reach out to the Pet Angel Fund for more information. Let's help Scruffy find a new temporary or forever home where he can thrive and be loved.

Story
Allow me to introduce you to Bishop, a handsome 4-year-old pup with a story to tell. Bishop hails from the streets of the south, where he was trying to make it on his own and chasing the wrong type of dames. However, his life took a turn when he ended up in a scary place called "The Shelter." Luckily, he managed to escape just in time and found his way to a better life. Bishop weighs around 55 pounds, and he wants the ladies to know that it's all muscle. But don't let his muscles fool you, he's as sweet as sugar and listens better than most men. He has a mix of boxer, lab, and pitbull in him, but his handsome looks mostly come from his pitbull side. And yes, the ladies love his guns! Unfortunately, Bishop's previous foster home had cats, and they didn't get along well. So, he's currently back in boarding, where he enjoys the company of other dogs and a kind lady who takes him for walks and plays ball with him. Bishop absolutely loves his toys and chasing balls. He can get a bit "mouthy" when teased with toys, but he redirects nicely. He enjoys going for walks, but if he spots a bird, rabbit, or squirrel, he's off like Richard Simmons in a workout video. However, he responds well to correction. Bishop is a goofball who doesn't take much seriously, except for treats. Treats are serious business to him, and he'll do just about anything for one. He loves peanut butter in his kabobs but avoids rawhide to maintain his playboy figure. With his big smile and awesome personality, Bishop hopes to find his forever home. He's fully vetted, which means he's had his shots and is neutered. He is currently undergoing treatment for heartworms using a method called Slow Kill. Bishop is an easygoing, sweet, smart, happy, cuddly, and laid-back dude. He loves exercising, playing catch, and chasing balls, but he also enjoys relaxing and taking naps. He would be more than happy to lounge around in bed and watch TV with his humans. A perfect day for Bishop would involve the three C's: chasing (balls), catch, and chill. He simply wants a best friend, someone to love him and give him the attention he deserves. A house would be preferable to an apartment, but he's open to trying out apartment life if it's a good fit. Bishop is currently in training now and is available for adoption or foster. To learn more about him and start the adoption process, reach outr to us. Wecan provide you with Bishop's portfolio and an application for his forever home. Bishop can't wait to give you wet kisses and steal all your blankets.

Story
* Sponsored by Underdogs to Allstars; which means her adoption fee is covered and her adopter will receive training assistance and all the tools to set you and Minnow up for a happy and successful life together. Minnow is a silly girl with a heart filled with untapped potential. Born in our shelter, she was returned due to no fault of her own.. Minnow may take some time to warm up to new people and situations, so she may seem a little out of sorts the first time you spend time with her, but once we get her away from all the noise Minnow's zest for life shines through. Minnow would do great with kids, other dogs, and cats. She is a pretty low maintenance dog, looking for nothing but a loving home with a comfy bed, some toys and of course treats! She is ready to embark on a new chapter filled with love and security. Minnow enjoys playing with other dogs and would do wel in a home with a canine companion. Her adopters will be so happy to have her as once she is comfortable you will see her true nature; showcasing a playful and loyal companion who will bring boundless joy to their lives.

Story
Rhiannon is the epitome of youth, gentleness, and loyalty all wrapped up in a furry bundle! She is silly, outgoing, appears to love other dogs, and is not shy meeting new people. She is still pretty young so she has quite a bit of energy but a good run around the yard and a puzzle game would tire her right out and she would be ready to some couch/tv time. This delightful dog is ready to find her forever home, where she will provide her adopters with the companionship of tender natured heart and unwavering devotion. Rhiannon is not just a pet; she's a loyal companion eager to be by your side through thick and thin. If you're seeking a young, gentle soul to brighten your days, Rhiannon is your girl!
