Story
At NHA, we pride ourselves on giving our pets every ounce of love we have. Even with all that love, life in a shelter can still be very stressful and scary for a young pup. Amy came to NHA as a shy puppy and has spent most of her life in a shelter system. Through the dedication of our awesome fosters, she has blossomed into the sweet and cuddly girl we always knew she was. Amy needs to go to a home with a confident doggy brother or sister who she can play with. She loves to snuggle on the couch with her people and play with her squeaky toys and stuffies. She's also a smarty-pants and loves her puzzle enrichment toys! All this girl needs is a patient home where she can enjoy life and fearlessly be herself! She's more than ready to shower her family with love and kisses galore. Inquire about Amy today!

Meet Bellamy! Bellamy is a name of French origin meaning 'good friend' and no other name is better suited for this gentle-hearted girl who is more than ready to become the best friend you've ever had! Bellamy is the sweetest, prettiest thing, and she's not just a beauty, but has brains as well! She already knows 'sit' and 'lay down' and she is so ready to learn more (as long as you have plenty of treats). Her hobbies include basking in the sun, having her belly rubbed, and eating as many treats as you're willing to give to her. Honestly though as long as she is by your side any activity is sure to be her favorite. Come on over to NHA and meet the newest member of your family today!
