Story
Meet Carly! Carly is a 6-month-old Lab mix who was rescued from an overcrowded shelter and is now ready for a fresh start. She can be a little shy at first, especially in her kennel, but once she’s out and given a little time, her sweet personality shines through. Carly warms up quickly and enjoys being around people who are patient and kind. As a young puppy, Carly will benefit from continued puppy training to help her build confidence and learn the basics. With guidance and love, she’s sure to grow into a wonderful companion. She’s looking for a forever home where she can finally relax, be herself, and enjoy all the fun and love a puppy deserves. If you’re looking for a gentle, loving pup who just needs a chance, Carly might be the perfect match

Story
*Ms. Zuma loves to sleep in her spare time; Beware, as she does snore and tends to sleep so deeply that she will have body tremors. She prefers to be under the comforter in bed, but will settle for a seat on the couch close to you, while under a blanket of course. However, if desired she is trained to sleep in a kennel as well. *She’s been caught guarding food so she is used to being fed separate from other animals. *She wants to be a part of everything, rather the nosey neighbor, which has resulted in her getting into altercations with dogs that are dominant and/or Alpha, as they don’t take too kindly to her attempting to correct their behavior. Therefore, she would be best suited as the single dog of a home or with non-dominant/ non-Alpha dogs. *She loves children and has quite a bit of patience, as demonstrated while wearing various costumes. *Can be left alone approximately 6 hours before needing to go potty, unless water is limited, and can wait at least 9 hours.

Rosie has lots of energy and would love an active home where she can play, explore, and then cuddle up after a fun day.

Story
Meet David! David is a 4-month-old puppy who is as sweet as can be. He’s still very much a puppy and brings all the fun, curiosity, and cuddles that come with it! David is learning about the world one day at a time and will need basic puppy training, including manners, leash skills, and confidence-building — the kind that’s best learned with patience, treats, and love. We were told that David’s mom is a Mini Australian Shepherd, but we’re not sure who dad was — which just adds a little mystery to his future size and look! What we do know is that David has a loving personality and is ready to grow into an amazing companion. If you’re looking for a sweet, playful pup to raise, train, and bond with, David could be your perfect match.
