Story

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.We are a foster home based rescue. Please fill out the online adoption application by clicking on Adoption Info under the Navigation bar on the left side of the page. Fill out the online form by clicking on the picture of the computer screen with our logo on it. Charlie Brown is an amazingly friendly and lovable long-haired dachshund. He recently got his first  haircut so he can be cleaned and checked easily after time outside each day, but that’s not  necessary! He’s a handsome boy with either long or short hair! He loves his treats (don’t drop  the peanut butter jar) and is food driven. Being potty trained he does well being out at home, but he does find his kennel as his safe space and does well with kennel time. He’s mastered  commands like “sit,” and “kennel up,” and is working on more such as “heel,place, and here.” He loves being outdoors especially for his walks. You can walk him as many times a day as  possible and he will not turn it down (even in the winter time!) He was diagnosed with Pes Varus last year which affects the curvature of his rear legs. The only  way to correct this is through surgery, but many pet parents don’t subject their dachshunds to  this extensive surgery and find they live a long healthy life! He is incredibly gentle but is a little  shy and takes time to relax and feel at home, but this does not stop him! His previous home  worked diligently to work on his leg strength with regular exercises and walks, as well as  maintaining a healthy weight to relieve stress on his back/legs. They purchased inexpensive pet  insurance out of precaution to financially assist should any complications arise later on in life  from his condition. They are willing to work with his new family to transfer this policy in Charlie’s  name. If you’re looking for a gentle, snuggly companion, Charlie Brown is the sweet boy for youCan you be Charlie Brown's furever home and keep him active to keep his back legs strengthened.He is 2 yrs old, he weighs _______, his adoption fee is $400 + sales tax $18=$418  Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.September 30, 2023, 1:13 pm

Story

Hooch is a 1 year old, male lab/pit mix, bundle of springy energy. He is fun and playful and bouncy. Hooch loves to play with most other dogs -- we recommend a meet and greet if you've got another doggo at home. Hooch loves to roll around with weebly wobbly toys! Hooch keeps his kennel clean and although he's still learning manners, he does well with older dog saavy kids. If you're looking for a fun and outgoing best friend, Hooch may be your guy. Most of our dogs are currently in shelter - but adoptions/meet and greets are by appointment only. Please call or e-mail the shelter to set up an appointment to meet and adopt! Our adoption fees include the following: all of our dogs/puppies are current on vaccinations (DHPP and Rabies if over 3 months of age) at the point of adoption, dewormed, heartworm tested and current on preventative, microchipped, treated for fleas/ticks and are spayed or neutered. Our large dog adoption fee is generally $150 + tax. Our small dog and puppy adoption fee is generally $250+ tax. Adoption fees may vary in special circumstances. Due to space limitations, we do not hold dogs. Because we are on a busy street, we require that all dogs leaving the shelter be in a carrier or on leash. All pets remain up for adoption until an approved application is processed and their adoption fee paid.
