Story
Buster is a sweet little guy ready to get out of the shelter and into a home! He is a young guy who came to PAWS as a stray, so much of his history is a mystery, but it is reported that he has done well with children. If you`re looking for a little scruffy pup to be your new bestie, consider adopting Buster!

Story
Hi! My name is Donner and I am available for adoption.I was tied up to a tree in RASKC`s parking lot on 12/14/25.I am considered a `large breed` dog.I can be a bit shy at first but once I warm up I am full of energy and I love to play! I tend to calm down more when the people around me stay calm. I do best when I have lots of exercise and something to keep my mind busy.Because of my shy nature, I would do best in a calm, quiet home.I am a spirited dog with a fun-loving personality! I am still working on my manners, so I would do best with a family who is willing to work with me and help me become the best dog I can be!

Story
Sweet and loving dog. Recently rescued but I just do not have the time she deserves. I am a single father, I work full time and I also attend college full time. She deserves more affection than I can give her with my busy schedule. She loves to play and run around in the yard. She is great with my son who is five years old. She was good around other dogs the couple times I tried it. The only reason I'm looking to re-home is that I feel awful she doesn't get the attention she deserves with my busy schedule.
