Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Hi there! My name is Ludo, and I’m just a baby puppy with a very big heart.  I’m sweet, curious about the world, and extra fluffy—which makes me absolutely perfect for snuggles (I take this job very seriously). I love all things stuffed—stuffed toys, plushies, squeaky friends… if it’s soft, I’m probably carrying it around proudly. I also really enjoy hanging out with big dogs and learning how to be a good pup by watching them. I’m doing great in my kennel and I’m working hard on potty training—I’m learning more every day and trying my best to be a good boy. With a little patience and lots of love, I know I’ll get the hang of everything in no time! Mostly, I’m just looking for a forever family who will love me, play with me, cuddle me, and help me grow up to be the best dog I can be. If you’re looking for a sweet, fluffy, snuggly puppy to join your family… I might be your guy! Love, Ludo  Ludo is from a local reservation.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Lilly is a darling little sweetheart with a growing confidence and playful spirit! She’s not quite sold on being outdoors yet, but she has conquered potty pad training — even if she’s still working on perfecting her aim on the pad (she’s trying, promise). As of this weekend, Lilly has blossomed into playtime and now loves toys and chasing balls. She already knows commands like “come” and “be patient,” and she responds best to praise and encouragement over treats — she lives for kind words and love. Lilly is also improving beautifully with kennel training, only crying once last night before settling down for the night. She’s finished her worm meds and is feeling much more comfortable and healthy now. Lilly is a sweet, sensitive pup who will shine in a patient, loving home ready to celebrate her progress. Lilly is from a local reservation. If you are interested in getting to know this animal better, please fill out an adoption application.
