Story
Klaus is about 3 years old, he is a charcoal lab. He has lots of energy and loves being snuggled. He can be a little shy with people he doesn’t know. He loves children, wherever they are he wants to be. He loves playing outside, fetch specifically. He loves a good bone to chew on as well. He is house trained, he does free roam at night and never has had an issue. He has a bed he sleeps on but he is also crate trained for travel. He does know a few tricks, he can sit, paw, lay down and he will bark “I love you”. He also waits to eat with a command of yes when serving him. Looking to have a family adopt him, I have two children that he adores but unfortunately my second child recently was tested for allergies due to some health concerns and she is allergic. I’m heart broken to rehome him but I also can’t have my child miserable. He needs a yard and preferably someone home with him, he isn’t ever alone because I do work from home.

Story
Meet Trigger! 🐾 Trigger is an 8-year-old Blue Heeler looking for his forever home with his sister, Ashley. Trigger is your typical fun-loving Blue Heeler! He loves to "talk," enjoys playing a little rough, and has a goofy personality that's sure to make you smile. While he still enjoys a good play session, Trigger is also a bit chunky and doesn't mind spending the rest of the day relaxing and soaking up all the attention. Trigger and Ashley have spent their lives together and are looking for a family willing to open their hearts and home to them both. If you're searching for a loyal, entertaining duo, Trigger and Ashley would love to meet you!

Story
Jett is a loving boy who just needs the right family to help him shine. He can be a little wary of strangers at first and will bark when meeting new people, but with patience and reassurance, he quickly learns that people aren’t so scary after all. Jett would thrive in a calm, structured home with no other pets or children, where he can get the one-on-one attention and training he deserves. Once he feels comfortable, Jett’s affectionate side truly comes out — he’ll be a loyal and devoted companion to his person.

Meet Reenie! 🐾 Reenie is a sweet, gentle girl searching for her forever home. She was found and brought to our shelter but was never reclaimed. While she can be a little shy when meeting new people, she quickly warms up and shows her loving personality once she feels comfortable. This lovely girl already knows how to sit and is highly treat-motivated, making her a great candidate for continued training. Reenie enjoys affection and would love a family who can give her the patience and love she deserves. If you're looking for a loyal companion and cuddle buddy, Reenie may be the perfect match for you. Come meet her and see if she's the missing piece of your family! ❤️🐶

Story
Meet Jake! 🐾 Jake is an energetic, fun-loving pup who is on the hunt for his furever home! He was surrendered when his previous owner realized they didn’t have enough time to give him the love and attention he deserves—so now he’s ready for a fresh start with a family who can. Jake loves going on walks and enjoys playtime with another dog here at the shelter. He’s very food motivated (which makes training a great opportunity!), but he can be a bit protective over his bone. He also isn’t a fan of having his feet touched, so he would do best in a home without young children. If you’re looking for an active companion who will keep you moving and make you smile, Jake might just be your guy ❤️
