Story
Honeybelle is 9 years old, 45 lbs, shepard mix, and about 97% pure sugar. She’s lived through more plot twists than a soap opera, yet remains the gentlest, snuggliest girl you’ll ever meet. In her foster home she’s been flawless: peaceful, quiet, easy, and occasionally acting as the household Fun Police (“Hey you two, keep it down!”). She does best with calm, friendly dogs. Her dream life? A comfy couch, a loving human, and a little diva pampering (which she has absolutely earned). Short strolls are great; long hikes are overrated anyway. Honeybelle is low-maintenance, loyal, and SO ready for her forever home. Let’s get this girl the holiday miracle she deserves.

Story
Meet Dixie & Talia – a bonded pair! Dixie is a 12-year-old Chihuahua (nicknamed Piglet) who loves dog beds, plays hard, then naps hard. She’s mostly pad-trained, does well with a fenced yard, and takes Carprofen for mild arthritis but stays active. Together, these two are sweet, funny, and great with dogs, cats, and even poultry. They’d thrive in a home with a fenced yard to play and then snuggle. They come with beds, crate, toys, chews, meds, records, leashes, and collars. Adoption fee for the pair is $500.

(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Story
Meet Kiwi! Kiwi is a 6 yr old spayed female, beautiful brindle Lab/Hound mix. She is 45lbs with a huge heart and joyful spirit, always wagging her tail. She is house-trained and has obedience training. Kiwi is affectionate, sensitive, and loves being close to her people. She loves tennis balls, squeaky toys, playing in the water, car rides, and most of all, snuggling on the couch. She is the happiest girl, always wanting to show her endless affection. She is truly the sweetest dog and full of personality. While wonderful with humans, Kiwi can be reactive toward other dogs and would do best as the only pet in the home. She would thrive with experienced dog owners who can give her a calm, structured environment, ideally with a fenced yard and older children or adults. Kiwi is truly a special dog, smart, loving, and has so much love to give. She deserves a forever home where she can be the center of attention and and be the loyal companion that she is.

Story
This adorable 7-month-old mystery mix (your guess is as good as ours!) is just 21 lbs and looks like a puppy who forgot to grow bigger. And trust us—you’ll love him exactly as he is! Casper is pure energy and joy. He’s friends with everyone he meets and assumes the whole world is ready to play. Affectionate, eager to please, and always on the move, he’d thrive with another energetic dog who can keep up with his zoomies. Thinking about agility? 🏆 Casper might be your future champion—he’s fast, playful, and loves getting the other dogs to chase him. Catching him is another story!

Story
A 6-year-old shepherd mix with the emotional vibe of “stranger danger but make it wholesome.” Shy and reserved at first, but once he warms up, he’s a total softie. He needs another confident dog in the home for guidance and moral support. Think introvert who only attends the party if his extrovert buddy is going.
