Story
Wilson is a stunning Black Mouth Cur mix who is basically a professional mood booster. With his warm, golden coat and that iconic white stripe down his nose, he’s as handsome as he is happy. He has a smile that stretches from ear to ear and a tail that never seems to stop wagging.Wilson is looking for a `forever pack` that enjoys being active as much as he does. Whether it’s a morning hike, a game of fetch in the backyard, or just patrolling the neighborhood for squirrels, he’s ready to be your right-hand man.After a day of fun, Wilson is a total cuddle bug. He doesn`t just want a house; he wants a home where he can finally rest his head knowing he’s loved.

Story
Gilmore’s story didn`t start in a cozy home; he was found wandering the fairways of a local golf course. Maybe he was looking for a `hole-in-one` family, or perhaps he just thought the bunkers made for excellent nap spots. Either way, this resilient boy has traded the greens for a chance at a forever home.

Ice Cream arrived at the shelter as a `melted` puddle of nerves, but she is slowly scooping up her confidence every single day.Ice Cream is the definition of a `Wallflower.` She isn`t the type to bark for attention at the front of the kennel. Instead, she’ll wait patiently in the back, hoping someone notices her quiet charm. Once she knows she’s safe, her true personality shines through:
