Story
Willem is a 1½-year-old, 65-pound husky with a big heart, a brilliant mind, and enough energy for every adventure on your calendar. He’s affectionate, athletic, curious, playful, food-motivated, and just the right amount of goofy. When it’s time to get moving, Willem is all in. He loves running, long walks, playing with other dogs, car rides, and exploring new places. This smart boy has done very well with other dogs in daycare, group play, and off-leash settings. He loves his canine friends and could potentially be an only dog with plenty of regular socialization and opportunities to play. Willem is also good with kids of all ages. His experience with cats is unknown, but he has a very high prey drive, so a home without cats would likely be the safest fit. Willem is potty trained and learns quickly, thanks to his clever husky brain and strong food motivation. He isn’t a fan of the crate, but he has not shown resource guarding or destructive behavior with his current foster. When left alone, he may bark or whine at first, but he has been able to settle after several minutes. Willem is a major escape artist, so he needs a very secure, tall fence and careful supervision whenever he’s outside. He can become bored without enough exercise and mental stimulation, and a determined husky with a plan is not something to underestimate! The wonderful news is that once Willem’s exercise and enrichment needs are met, he settles beautifully. He’s happy to relax, cuddle, and sleep after a full day of fun. His ideal family will enjoy an active lifestyle and want a smart, adventurous dog who can be involved in everything from morning walks to weekend explorations. Willem is energetic when the moment calls for it, calm when the day winds down, and always ready to be your enthusiastic adventure buddy.September 27, 2026, 10:35 am

Story
Luna Moon is a beautiful 3-year-old girl with a gorgeous wooly coat and an exceptionally sweet, calm personality.

Story
Sashimi is a young girl, about a year old, who was picked up locally as a stray and never reclaimed. She was spayed while at the shelter and is heartworm negative, so she’s now ready for a foster or forever home. Sashimi is dog friendly and still has all the bright, young-dog energy that comes with being just about a year old. She’s at the perfect age to settle into a home where she can continue learning, growing, and showing off her personality. If you’re looking for a sweet young pup who is ready for a fresh start, Sashimi may be the one for you.September 27, 2026, 10:35 am

Story
BREED-Rat Terrier Mix; SEX-Male; SIZE-Small; WEIGHT-13 lbs.; AGE-Approximately 4 Years; SPAY/NEUTER-Yes; HOUSETRAINED-Currently Uses Doggie Door; GOOD WITH KIDS-Yes; GOOD WITH DOGS-Yes; GOOD WITH CATS-Unknown; HISTORY-Rescued From A Local Shelter; ADOPTION FEE-$250   Gus is truly one of the sweetest dogs you’ll ever meet. He has a calm, easygoing nature, and his idea of a perfect day is simply being close to his person—curled up in your lap or resting quietly by your side. Gus greets everyone with joy and genuine happiness, and his gentle presence has a way of making you feel instantly loved. He gets along wonderfully with other dogs and warmly welcomes new fosters into his home with a kind and patient spirit. Gus does have an autoimmune condition that causes some crusting around his eyes and the sides of his mouth. This means he will need a little extra daily care, including gently cleaning his eyes and mouth with a warm cloth, as well as taking daily medication. The medication is quite manageable, with an average monthly cost of about $20. With this simple routine, Gus remains comfortable and continues to thrive. If you’re looking for a truly special dog—one who will return your love with endless affection and quiet companionship—Gus may be the perfect match for you.September 27, 2026, 4:51 pm
