Story
Meet Cocoa 🤎🐾 Cocoa is a 1.5-year-old Shepherd with the most soulful amber eyes and the sweetest, happiest smile you’ve ever seen. One look at her and you’re hooked — those big, alert ears, that perfectly boopable nose, and the way her whole face lights up when she looks at you just melts your heart. She has this joyful, “life is good” expression that makes you want to scoop her up and tell her she’s the best girl (because she is). Cocoa is perfectly housetrained and crate trained. She’s incredibly intelligent and has a fun, silly personality — she’ll play little games with you and keeps you laughing with her clever antics. She’s so smart that she could absolutely excel as a service dog with the right guidance. She’s very social and playful with older kids, other dogs, and would truly thrive with a canine companion since she can get a little lonely on her own. She’s vocal in the cutest way — if she needs to go outside, she’ll let you know with a bark. If she wants attention, she’ll make the funniest little whining sounds to “talk” to you. She’s not excessive, just expressive. While she loves to play, she’s not over-the-top high energy. She’s perfectly content to snuggle up on the couch and just be near her people. Cocoa would do best in a feline-free home, as cats are just a bit too tempting to chase. She is spayed, fully vaccinated, and ready to find her forever family — one lucky home that gets to wake up to that beautiful, smiling face every single day. 🐾💕

Meet Lola! Lola is a 1.5-year-old Shepherd/Husky mix with striking amber eyes, a big personality, and an even bigger heart. She’s wonderfully goofy — full of silly antics, playful energy, and that classic “husky talk” that makes her impossible not to smile at. She loves people, so expect plenty of affection, snuggles, and a sweet shadow who likes to be nearby. Lola has moderate to high energy and would do great in a home that can give her a bit of daily activity — whether that’s walks, playtime, or a canine buddy to help her burn off some zoomies. She’s friendly with kids and other dogs, though she’d do best in a home without cats, as her instincts may tempt her to chase. Lola is crate trained, progressing nicely with house training, and is already spayed and fully vaccinated. She’s ready to bring laughter, love, and lots of personality to her forever home.
