Story
Ursa — The Lady Boss of Love Ursa may be black with gorgeous brindle accents on her face, head, legs, and feet — but it’s her personality that really shines. She’s the take-charge girl of her puppy pack, confidently diving into every bit of fun. But don’t let that leadership fool you — Ursa’s greatest joy is people. She’s not content to sit politely at your feet. Nope! She wants to be in your lap, giving and receiving all the snuggles she can get. She loves human playtime, yard adventures with her siblings, and being in the center of all the action. Ursa is the perfect mix of spirited and sweet — a pup who would adore a family ready to love her as much as she loves them. Ursa was born on 6/9/25 and is now 3 months old. While black is her primary color, her head and face are beautifully brindle, as are her legs and feet. She's uniquely beautiful! Ursa is a take charge sort of girl, an unofficial lady boss within her pack and she likes to be in the middle of all of the play and fun. She's not content to be looking for love sitting at your feet, she wants to be in your lap getting right to the love and snuggles. She really likes human playtime and companionship, but she is confident in running around outside with her siblings and exploring her yard with them as well. Ursa is a sweet girl looking for that loving companionship in her forever family. Adoption fee includes spay/neuter and all age appropriate vaccinations.

Story
DOB 1/5/25 Mom is German Shepherd, dad is Shar Pie / bird dog mix. Loves people, dogs and cats, no experience with children, but I'm sure he'd do well. Working on potty training, we still take him outside every 1-2 hours. Ty loves playing outside with his sisters, rolling in the dirt (gives me no trouble when I wipe his face with a wet rag), having his big floppy ears rubbed, and belly scratches. He loves his alone time, but at bedtime, he snuggles up and sleeps with his head on me. When coming in from outside he sits and waits for his treat, and is very gentle when taking it. He is a great eater, his favorite treats are raw carrots, blueberries and "pupcicles" (frozen greek yogurt with raw chicken gizzards and blueberries. He is a drooler when food is around. He is an "old soul" and so loving. Adoption fee includes all shots and neuter. Doing well on a leash, with a harness.

Story
This sweet, timid girl is looking for her forever home! Betty is 1 yr old, about 45 lbs, fully vetted and current on preventatives, great with big dogs (like obsessed with big dogs) but not good with small dogs, and likely not cats either, crate trained, house trained. Betty came from a sad, neglectful situation (with 9 other siblings and a few adults). Dogs help her come out of her shell. She could be an only dog if her human had plenty of time to spend with her. Two of her sisters are in other foster homes and four have been adopted and are THRIVING! Now it's her turn!

Story
Friedas story is a true rescue story. We walk our dogs when time permits by the lake, so all loaded up in the cars, ready to drive to the lake, which is a huge dumping ground for dogs in this area. and sure enough, here hobbles Frieda toward our moving car begging for help. Of course we stopped, of course we brought her home and proper vetting was provided, including FHO surgery to fix her hip. She was in pain when she arrived, quiet, stoic almost, not showing much emotion........until she started feeling healthy and made a total 180!!!! She is funny, she makes the craziest grimaces, she likes to have conversations and also will complain if You are not fast enough to fix her lunch. Frieda is fed separately because as most dogs that have experienced starvation, she is in food protective mode but not food aggressive. She will sit and wait her turn to get treats with 10 other dogs around her. Frieda also likes her beauty naps and does not get up in the morning until she is woken up......Diva! She is so entertaining and wonderfully peculiar, she is one of a kind. Have I mentioned that she does not shed much? Easy maintenance, no special grooming required. Now I need to make clear that she still sometimes lifts her previously bad leg, I think it is mostly out of habit, and her mobility is steadily improving. She could be an apartment dog only if lots of walking is part of her daily routine. I think she prefers male dogs but then again she loves my Kipp, they are besties. I have truly enjoyed having her because she makes me laugh especially when she and I have deep discussions over important social issues such as how much longer she has to wait on a new batch of peanut butter dog cookies. I promise, if given the chance to adjust to a new home and given the patience, You will not regret adopting this stunning lady. P S she loves to "help" with folding towels and stealing my tennis shoes to put them in the living room
