Story
Amaranth is a sweet, smart, food-motivated girl who will be lots of fun to train. She loves to use her nose - a natural at searching games. 🕵️‍♀️ Though she can be shy and nervous in the shelter, she quickly warms up to new people - especially ones with treats! She likes going on walks and sniffing out all the goodies that have been dropped in the grass. 👃 She’d thrive in a calm home with a solid routine and lots of opportunities to learn and explore. 🗺️ Amaranth came to the shelter with another dog - her husky pal, adoptable Jacinda. She is interested in other dogs but very worried by ones she doesn't know. 🫣 She’ll need slow intros with calm dogs who won’t mind that she can be awkward at first and needs time to build trust. (Can you relate?!) Once she's comfortable, her playful, goofy side comes out. She loves to play chase games with Jacinda and has excitable "little sister" energy. She could be a great fit for a home with a confident, patient dog who doesn't mind taking the lead. 🐕 Amaranth will be a great companion for a person or family who has lots of love to give! 💗 Is that you? Come visit her today!

Story
Trout is ready to swim his way into your heart!🐟 This pint-sized goofball is 1 year old and only 34 lbs!🤪 Found as a stray just down the road from the shelter, Trout has not let his new shelter life dim his smile. He has already impressed staff with his manners, sitting nicely for his toys or treats. He enjoys a good game of fetch, but prefers to settle down with a soft toy and get some relaxing in.🧸 He has been friendly and affectionate with everyone he meets and has handled his medical appointments like a champ!🖤He has been interested in other dogs, and after a little time seemed to be down to play! Come and meet this cutie at the shelter and see if he’s a fit for your family! 🥰

Good with kids, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Bruno is a lovable mixed Lab that was acquired from an owner who was interested in finding a good home for him. He is approximately 3 years old (so really a big energetic puppy). Bruno is an outside dog and loves to run and play in the back yard, especially with a football. He also likes belly rubs and likes being petted. We are looking for a good pet owner who will love Bruno and doesn’t mind spending time with him. We are relocating so we will not be able to take Bruno with us. Thank you!

Story
I’m crying as I write this I don’t won’t to give him away . If he shows one sign of loneliness I would ask to please let me know I want him back I’ll refund you . If he seems sad or lonely. He just sheds too much ! He’s so sweet and kind . He listens so well . And is house trained. He has started to pee in the house after 10 years of not . We think cause he now stays 8 hours alone, after 10 years of only staying no more then 5 hours alone . My husband can’t take the peeing and hair no longer .
