Story
Holly is a lovely little dog who's friendly, cuddly, a good walker, and enjoys other dogs and cats. She's a rescue from Texas and has been with us for 5 years. We adopted her from Catkins in Park Falls WI. Recently due to a death in the family we are looking for a new home for her. Currently she lives with a cat and 3 other dogs. She's a diva and loves to wear coats. Holly has lots of personality and loves to shine. We think she's got some hound in her because she climbs trees and chases water fowl and squirrels. Holly loves to walk and run, enjoys fresh air, and is very smart and loyal. She enjoys her family and also spending time on the couch. We love Holly and are sad to lose her but are in a situation that we have to make this hard decision. We know the perfect family is out there for her. She'd be happy as a single dog or in a group with one person or more. Please feel free to contact us with additional questions. Beth

Story
I'm Oreo! I am an 8 wk old, male lab/Aussie mix. When it comes to play time, I'm the first one in and the last one out. If "ruff" housing was an Olympic sport I'd have a gold medal. I'm wishing on my lucky stars to not only have my very own person, but also for a spunky fur ball like myself to roll around with. I will be ready to go to my new home on Thurs., Mar. 25th. I will be neutered, have age-appropriate vaccinations, microchipped, wormed and on preventatives. To adopt me go to the shelter's website and fill out a pre-adoption application found under the Adoptable Animals tab. Once you are approved you can call to find out more about adopting me.
