Story
Ivory is a 4 year old female white German shepherd. She’s potty trained and up to date on vaccines. She stays in her kennel while we’re at work but is out all night with no issues. She loves chewing on her bones/toys and laying with you. We have been fostering her since June but are now looking for a permanent home for her. She was previously in a home with another dog and a young child without issues. We hope we can find a loving home for this sweet girl!

Meet Ghost! Ghost is a 3-year-old German Shepherd who is smart, loyal, and full of love. He’s patient with kids and gets along well with other dogs.

He can be reactive to strangers and needs a secure yard and adults or older kids who understand large, active dogs. Ghost thrives in a calm, predictable home and will be a devoted companion to the right family. Ideal home: Calm, structured household with time for exercise and supervision. He’s ready to give his heart to someone who matches his energy! **Please note- Ghost is a fearful dog who needs training to help build his confidence! Ideally he would go to a home that is experienced in working with this type of behavior. He has so much potential but needs someone who has the time and resources to work with him.**

Story
We adopted Kodi after she was found abandoned in a box at a veterinarian's office. She is about 6 months old and such a sweet, playful puppy. She loves going on walks, exploring, meeting new people, and then curling up to sleep right next to you. We truly wish we could keep her, but a recent change in our work schedule means we can't give her the time and attention she deserves. We're looking for a loving, patient home where she'll be part of the family. Kodi is affectionate, curious, energetic, and loyal. We are only asking a small adoption fee to ensure we find serious, committed adopters who will give her a great forever home. She hasn't been spayed yet. But will need to be done in the next few months.
