Story
Kennel and potty trained. Ollie is still a pup at heart. He loves to run and play. Take him to a dog park and he will do laps around the whole thing, chase after a ball, and loves to get into water (does not swim tho, just hangs out and runs in it). Ollie loves to snuggle, take naps, chew bones, loves his toys, and LOVES people. Has some anxiety so takes trazodone to help. Would be the perfect only dog child, although does tolerate and coexist with other dogs as he lives with 2 others. He is just getting older and likes his things to be his own and gets annoyed easily at younger pups in “his” space. He has the wiggliest butt and loves to lick and love on his humans. He loves to sleep under the bed every night and follows you to and from room to room.

Liv. Here’s what I know about her so far—it’s all good! She's super kid and dog friendly, playful and active, always up for some fun! She loves to snuggle and is just the sweetest little thing. Her petite size makes her even more adorable, and she's so easy-going. Plus, she's brave and not shy at all. Liv is doing really well! She’d do wonderfully in an active home, especially one with another dog. She’s ready to learn her basics, manners, and share lots of love. She’s been having a great time playing with the other dogs here, respecting their boundaries, which is fantastic. If you're interested in meeting her, please visit www.nttsars.com and fill out an application. January 5, 2026, 11:14 am

Story
Meet Jericho and Jagger— 2-year-old brothers with matching soulful eyes and big, gentle hearts. These boys have spent their early years without much human interaction, so the world is still a new and sometimes overwhelming place for them. But together, they find comfort, confidence, and courage.Jericho is the braver of the two, often leading the way with cautious curiosity, while Jagger tends to hang back, watching his brother for reassurance. They’ve come a long way since arriving at the shelter, slowly learning to trust, accept affection, and even enjoy the occasional tail-wagging moment of play.Because they were never properly socialized, Max and Moose will need a very special home—one that’s calm, patient, and experienced with shy or fearful dogs. A quiet environment with a secure yard and lots of love will go a long way in helping these brothers continue their journey. They may never be the life of the party, but they will be incredibly loyal companions to the person who sees their potential and gives them the time and space they need to bloom.
