Story
Hi, I’m Betty!I’m a 7-year-old brown and white Basset Hound mix with a sweet face and an even sweeter soul. I was transferred from another shelter to give me a better chance at finding my forever home and I’m really hoping that home might be yours.I’m a gentle senior gal who loves cozy naps, soft blankets, and spending time with my people. I have that classic hound charm: soulful eyes, a calm and loving nature, and a peaceful presence that makes you want to sit down and relax with me for a while. I may be past the puppy stage, but don’t worry, I still have plenty of love to give and would make a wonderful, loyal companion.I also come with some great bonuses! I’m housebroken, I walk beautifully on a leash, and I know how to enjoy the simple things in life. I tend to bond more quickly with women and can be a little shy around men at first, but with gentle, proper introductions, I warm up pretty fast.If you have room in your heart (and on your couch) for a deserving senior who just wants love and comfort, I’d really love to meet you! If this dog has been successful in our play groups it is not a guarantee that a dog will be social with other dogs in their home or in public settings. Dogs are individuals and have personality conflicts, just like us. Play groups do not guarantee that territorial or resource guarding issues will not surface in the home. While play groups do help us get to know the dog`s better, once they are adopted their new environments and new relationships will influence their behavior in ways we cannot predict.I am a senior dog that is eligible for the Senior 2 Senior Adoption Program!The Adoption Fee Includes:- initial canine distemper combination vaccination- first worming or stool check- rabies vaccination (for animals over 3 months of age)- 24 Petwatch microchipping- flea treatment/preventative- spaying or neuteringAdoption fee: $95.00Per state law, ALL ADOPTERS must purchase a non-refundable 2025 dog license at time of adoption for any canine three months and older.

Story
Paisley is a sweet female black puppy with a heart as soft as her velvety coat. This little girl is full of gentle charm and puppy curiosity, and she’s ready to grow into someone’s very best friend. Paisley enjoys soaking up attention, learning about the world around her, and showing off her adorable puppy antics. Like any young pup, Paisley is still learning and will thrive in a home that’s ready to help her grow with patience, love, and positive training. She’s at the perfect age to bond closely with her future family and become a loyal, loving companion. If you’re looking for a sweet puppy who’s equal parts cuddly and playful, Paisley may be the perfect match for you!Few can resist a puppy. These adorable, soft bundles of energy are similar to four-legged children with tails. And like children, puppies need a lot of time, care, love, and patience. A puppy will depend on you for frequent and regular feedings and walks, for guidance and training, and for much of your time and your love. Before you plunge into puppy parenthood, make sure to research! There are many rewards to caring for a puppy, but there are also many requirements. Puppy classes are highly recommended for socialization and a positive transition into your home. Puppies love to learn how to be the best dog for your family!If this dog has been successful in our play groups it is not a guarantee that a dog will be social with other dogs in their home or in public settings.

Story
Hi there, I’m Anna!I’m a 3-year-old brown and white Alaskan Malamute with a bubbly spirit and the sweetest heart you’ll ever meet. My first few years weren’t exactly what you’d call a typical doggy life, but thankfully I was given a second chance when I came to the shelter. Now I’m dreaming of something I’ve never truly had before- a real home, with a real family to call my own.When I first arrived, I was pretty shy and unsure of the world around me. Everything felt big and new. But thanks to the love and patience of the staff and volunteers here, I’ve really blossomed. Once I feel comfortable, my joyful personality shines bright! I have a happy energy that tends to make people smile, and I love forming special bonds with “my people.”I’m looking for a family who’s excited to welcome an affectionate, loyal companion into their lives. If you’re hoping for a dog who will greet you with enthusiasm, stick by your side, and fill your home with warmth and happiness, I might just be your girl.The staff here think I would do best as the only pet in a teen-and-up household. I’ve enjoyed playgroup here at the shelter, but I can be protective of my food and some of my belongings, so having my very own space (and being your one and only!) would help me feel safe and secure.Because I didn’t have much structure early on, I’m still polishing up some basics like loose-leash walking and obedience skills. The good news? I’m smart, eager to learn, and would love the chance to train with you. It would be such a fun way for us to bond and grow together and help me become the very best companion I can be.More than anything, I’m ready to leave my past behind and start my next chapter- one filled with love, patience, and lots of cozy moments. Could that be with you? Come and meet me today!!If this dog has been successful in our play groups it is not a guarantee that a dog will be social with other dogs in their home or in public settings.
