Story
Hi, I’m Oreo! I’m a stunning 5-year-old Dalmatian who’s ready to find my forever family. With my beautiful spotted coat and bright personality, I turn heads everywhere I go. I’m at the perfect age where I’ve outgrown the puppy chaos but still have so much life, love, and adventure ahead of me. I’m looking for someone who wants a loyal companion to share their days with, whether that means going for walks, spending quality time together, or just enjoying each other’s company. I have so much love to give and I can’t wait to show someone just how special I am. If you’re looking for a one-of-a-kind dog to make your life a little brighter, I might just be the girl you’ve been waiting for.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, 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!

Hi, I’m Toad! I found my way to the shelter as a stray in December 2025, and now I’m hoping my next stop is my forever home.I’m a 4-year-old gray pit bull with a big, blocky head, soulful eyes, and an even bigger heart. I may look tough at first glance, but don’t let that fool you—I’m a total softie. I love people and being close to my humans, whether that means curling up on the couch, following you from room to room, or soaking up every bit of affection you’re willing to give.I’ve got a calm, gentle nature, but once I feel comfortable, my goofy, playful side starts to shine. I enjoy going for walks, earning treats, and finding the perfect cozy spot for a good nap. I’m eager to please and I am happiest when I’m spending time with my favorite people.All I really want is a family to call my own! A best friend, a cuddle buddy, and a loyal companion all wrapped into one. If you’re looking for a sweet, loving dog to share your life with, I just might be your perfect match.Come meet me, I can’t wait to be your personal shadow, professional cuddler and couch connoisseur!

Story
Meet Texas! Howdy, partner! My name is Texas, and I’m a handsome shepherd mix with a heart as big as the Lone Star State. I’m estimated to be around 5 years old, but since I came in as a stray, my exact birthday is a little mystery. What isn’t a mystery, though, is how smart and eager I am to learn! I can be a bit shy at first, but once I warm up, I turn into the sweetest, most loving companion. I bond deeply with my people and love showing them just how loyal and affectionate I can be. I’ve been having an absolute blast in the snow and you’ll often find me happily chasing after tennis balls like it’s my full-time job! Because I’m a working-breed mix, I’m looking for an adopter with experience who understands my need for structure, mental stimulation, and continued training. In return, I promise to be an incredibly rewarding best friend who’s ready to learn, play, and love with his whole heart. If you’re searching for a smart, playful, and devoted companion, Texas just might be your perfect match!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.
