Story
Raven is a beautiful big cuddle bug with huge puppy energy. Unknown if purebred. She has a lot of anxiety due to her coming from a puppy mill situation, but she is physically healthy besides her anxiety. She is 4 years old, and weighs about 68 pounds. Raven rarely has any accidents in the house at all, and is good with other big dogs and older kids. I say older kids because Raven is very energetic and can play rough, or knock small children over. She is also spayed and utd on shots. Raven needs a lot of room to run, with not many neighbors around. She gets anxious and will bark if she sees people too close to her house. She could use some basic obedience refresher courses. But she really is a very sweet and fun friend to have. I was diagnosed recently with two terminal illnesses, and being disabled im unable to keep up with poor Raven and give her the exercise and play that she deserves. Shes a good baby! I pray every night now that someone will help my girl. Thank you

Meet Cheetah, a vivacious, playful, and curious canine with an adventurous spirit! Cheetah's journey to the shelter is a hilarious tale. She was caught red-pawed digging up a neighbor's garden, in pursuit of what she believed to be a treasure map. The 'map' turned out to be a kid's drawing of their dream treehouse! Cheetah's energy and curiosity make every day an adventure. She's mastered 'sit' and 'come', and can even catch treats mid-air! With Cheetah, you're not just adopting a pet, you're gaining a co-adventurer. She's ready to bring fun, laughter, and love to her forever home.Since Cheetah is a long stay at THS, she is eligible for our Foster to Adopt Program!! Interested adopters have the option of taking her home for a minimum of one night, or a maximum of one week to determine if she is a good fit!Stop by THS to ask about this sweet lady today!
