Story
Meet Blitzen, a bright, bouncy teenage pup with energy to spare and a whole lot of love to give. This active girl lives to play and is as smart as she is food-motivated, which means she learns fast and enjoys training when treats are involved. Blitzen is still polishing her manners, both with people and around other dogs. She would benefit from having stable, playful, and tolerant adult dog friends, either in her home or among regular friends and family. She’s looking for a household ready to keep up with her fun-loving spirit and continue her training journey. Any kids in the home should be mature enough to participate in training and comfortable with her enthusiastic jumps.** Should meet any potential dog siblings on campus before adoption to determine compatability

Story
Nina is the sweetest, gentlest soul you’ll ever call your own! She walks beautifully on leash, never pulling she’s just happily strolling beside you as if she’s always belonged there. She’s easy to groom, easy to live with, and perfectly content spending her days close to her person, whether that’s on a peaceful neighborhood walk or curled up beside you on the couch. What makes Nina even more special is how gentle and trusting she remains despite her past. For three long years, she lived tied outside in a small shelter, exposed to the elements and slowly losing weight while neighbors pleaded for help. When she became dangerously thin, caring neighbors convinced her owner to let her go. After a brief stop in their home, an ACO brought her to safety, where she began to heal physically and emotionally. Even after everything she endured, Nina showed no aggression, no reactivity, just a quiet willingness to trust and love again. She’s gained some healthy weight, and blossomed into the sweetest companion you could imagine. Now all she needs is the forever home she has always deserved. If you’re looking for a calm, affectionate, low-maintenance best friend with the gentlest heart. This beautiful girl named Nina is ready for her forever home!
