Story
Buddy was my late sister’s dog. She passed a year and a half ago. Then my dad took custody of him and my dad passed a few months ago. I was the only one left, but we are just too busy to give buddy the life he deserves. I am a single mom, my twins are seniors this year and they will be off to college next. I also take care of my mom. I have a very full plate. He is a laid back dog, will always alert you when someone is at the door. I have no yard, no where for him to play. He is depressed. And I can’t help him right now.

Story
Meet Starla, a shy girl who is making incredible progress and shining brighter every day. She needs time and patience to warm up, but once that first connection is made, she relaxes and melts into butt scratches and neck rubs. She's been getting more comfortable with her staff and volunteer pals at the shelter, slowly letting her guard down and showing everyone what a great dog she truly is. This girl is a star in the making, and she's just getting started!

Story
We rescued Felix from a neglectful owner in 2022. He is a very sweet and loving boy. Good on a leash and knows commands and listens well most of the time. He is very curious and will get into the kitchen trash if able.He is trained to guard the home but will not attack unless directed to do so, or if his person/people are being directly harmed. Otherwise he just barks until instructed.Unfortunately our living situation changed suddenly. We now have much less space than previously and our other dog that we have had since he was a puppy does not get along consistently with Felix in such close quarters. Felix has never been agressive.Felix has never had an issue with any other dog. He is good with cats.Felix needs a home with love, patience, and someone to work/play with him. Though he does love to lay/sit next to you and snuggle.He is overall a wonderful dog and we wish we could continue to keep him. He needs the forever home we intended to provide before our lives turned upside down.
