Story
Meet Gingersnap — a toy-motivated, loyal, sweet, and endlessly fun girl who’s ready to steal your heart 💛. She lives for playtime, thrives on companionship, and forms deep bonds with her people, making her an incredibly devoted best friend.

She is looking for a no-children home, where she can feel safe, comfortable, and relaxed. While she may need some extra support, her joyful spirit, loving nature, and zest for life far outweigh her medical needs.

Story
Meet Margaret! 🐾❤️ Margaret is an 8-year-old German Shepherd mix with a heart as strong as her spirit. When she was found abandoned and alone — skinny, tired, and clearly having weathered some tough times — it was obvious she hadn’t been given the care she deserved. But despite everything she’s been through, Margaret’s light still shines bright. She is incredibly sweet, affectionate, and full of life. Margaret hasn’t let her past dim her joy — she still loves to play, especially a good game of fetch! Watching her chase after a ball with her tail wagging and a big, happy grin is a reminder of how resilient and hopeful dogs can be. Margaret is looking for a forever home where she’ll finally get the love, comfort, and security she’s always deserved. She’s ready to trade her difficult past for cozy naps, gentle pets, and endless games of fetch in the yard. This special girl has waited long enough — could you be the one to show Margaret what it means to be truly home? 🏡💛

Story
Meet Summit! Summit is a handsome 2-year-old German Shepherd with a sweet heart and a playful spirit. He loves going on walks and enjoys staying active, making him a great match for someone who likes to get out and about. Summit is full of energy and can be a little jumpy at times, so he would benefit from some basic training and would do best in an adult-only home that can help guide him and continue building his manners. This smart boy is eager to learn and has all the potential to become an amazing companion with a little structure and consistency. Summit is not neutered yet, so he is currently available through a foster-to-adopt program until his neuter is completed.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Meet Jetta! Jetta is a bright, highly trainable young dog who is eager to learn and loves having a canine companion. She and her sister, Lady, came from an unexpected litter. A year later, they sadly found themselves homeless. Lady has already found her forever home, and now it’s Jetta’s turn. We do believe she needs a companion playmate. Jetta has lived comfortably with three other dogs and small children, showing that she thrives in a family environment. With her breed mix, she’ll do best in an active home where she can enjoy plenty of exercise and mental stimulation. A fenced-in yard or an electric fence for supervised playtime would be ideal—she did very well with an electric fence in her former home. Jetta is housebroken when allowed indoors. She can be a little hesitant about car rides at first, but once she’s in, she rides along just fine. Jetta has not been raised around small animals or cats and tends to chase them outside, so a cat-free home is best. She was a family favorite at Pupapalooze and was gentle with children from start to finish. Jetta is waiting for a family who will give her the love, structure, and activity she deserves. Could that be you?   More about Jetta L:   Good with Dogs Good with Kids Not Good with Cats  Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.November 16, 2025, 8:39 pm

Story
Mara is a gentle, affectionate German Shepherd (age7) with a loving heart and a lot of loyalty to give. She is the kind of dog who thrives on connection and just wants to be near her person ; whether that is snuggling on the couch or following you from room to room. She is smart, devoted, and has a playful, curious side, especially outdoors. She loves being active and enjoys car rides, yard time, and chasing after flies and bees. With a moderate energy level, she is happy to get some exercise and then settle in for quality quiet time with her people. She is sweet, sensitive, and thinks she is a lap dog! Mara has lived with her male German Shepherd sibling and a bulldog but hasn’t been around unfamiliar dogs, cats, or small children. She could adapt to a home with other dogs if introduced slowly. Because she can be anxious with small kids or chaotic environments, a home with adults or older teens is best.
