Story

Meet sweet Pumpkin! She is 6 years old, full of energy for walks and play! She loves to play fetch, tug, and run as fast as she can outside! Pumpkin cannot be in a home with YOUNG children and other pets of any kind, and this is why we have made one of the hardest decisions of our lives to re-home her. Pumpkin has not bitten our daughter, but now has come close too many times. Pumpkin does not seek out children to bite or show aggression, but if young children pull or hang on her, she becomes aggressive. Under no circumstances can Pumpkin live with dogs or cats. However, a home without YOUNG children or pets (ideally with a fully fenced yard) will be the luckiest family as Pumpkin loves to cuddle and have her face kissed, she truly is so sweet and we will always love her.

Story

This little guy is Cornbread! 💛 He’s about 4.5 months old and still a little unsure of the world, but one thing he’s very sure about is being held and cuddled. Scoop him up and he’s happy to snuggle right in.Cornbread starts out shy and needs a little time to get comfortable. He’s good with other dogs and enjoys playing, but he’s a bit reserved and likes to take things at his own pace.He’s a sweet little boy who needs someone patient to help him find his confidence—and who won’t mind being his favorite place to cuddle while he figures it all out. 🐾Adoption Hours are Wednesday through Sunday from 11 AM to 4 PM. You do not need an appointment to come by and meet animals during adoption hours.
