Story
Meet Nova! Nova is a beautiful 1-year-old Cattle Dog/Pitty mix with lots of energy, personality, and love to give! This young girl would be a great match for an active family who can give her plenty of opportunities to play, explore, and continue learning. Nova is kennel trained and mostly house trained, and she is currently working on her basic commands. She’s a smart girl who will thrive with a family willing to continue providing consistency, structure, and positive training. Nova would do best in a home with dogs her size or smaller and is best suited for older children who can keep up with her energetic personality. At only one year old, Nova has her whole life ahead of her. She’s looking for someone who will give her the love, patience, and guidance she needs to become the incredible companion we know she can be. 1 year old Cattle Dog/Pitty mix Kennel trained Mostly house trained Working on basic commands High-energy and playful Best with dogs her size or smaller Best with older kids Nova is ready to find the family who will choose her forever. ❤️Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.October 5, 2026, 7:16 pm

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Samie: Smart, Dog-Friendly, and Ready for Forever! Hi, I'm Samie! At 18 months old and 28 pounds, I am a great medium-sized companion—small enough for your lap, but sturdy enough to run and play with the big dogs. I am naturally easygoing, smart, and eager to please. I absolutely love squeaky toys, puzzles, and enrichment games. Treats? I have zero standards and maximum enthusiasm. I rarely meet a snack, apple slice, or blueberry I don’t love, which makes training a great bonding activity for us. I am fantastic with other dogs and have a respectful play style. I am also great on the go—I enjoy car rides, travel well in my crate, and love making new friends. Like any young dog, I am still fine-tuning my leash manners and recall, and I occasionally look to my person for reassurance in brand-new situations. Otherwise, I try to take things in stride and adapt easily. Inside the house, I am an excellent roommate. I am crate-trained, content to nap for hours, and I already know how to use a doggy door. If your home doesn't have a doggy door, I just need a human who is consistent about letting me out to do my business, and I am good to go! Here are fast facts: Samie is an Australian Cattle dog mix, 18 months old and full grown at about 28 pounds. He interacts excellently with other dogs. His compatibility with cats and young children is unknown as he has not been tested with them yet. He is neutered, microchipped, and fully vaccinated. Samie is a best friend with a huge heart. We don’t know much about his past other than the fact that when he was found as a small puppy, he had a skin infection. It's all cleared up now, but it did leave him with scarring on his face. Some people think those markings are scary, but they don't both Samie! He shows up every day with a wagging tail, eager spirit and a total willingness to connect. He will thrive with a kind, encouraging human who uses positive reinforcement to show him the ropes!
