Story
JACK- 1 Year & 7 Months Jack was recently surrendered by owner due to not getting along with his litter mates and his parents.  The owner states he does well with other dogs that are not related to him, although he has shown resource guarding tendencies so food and toys should be kept separate.  He likes playing with tennis balls and being a goof ball himself. He has never been around children and would not do well with cats.  He enjoys lounging on the couch watching tv with his person, but he can also be energetic and playful like the pup he is.   Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.October 6, 2025, 10:17 pm

Story
Meet Yeti! This sweet guy is hoping to be the newest member of your family! Yeti does tend to be on the more timid side, so he would do well with having a canine companion in the home to help him get more comfortable. For that same reason, we also require that Yeti meets any of your other resident canines in the home prior to adoption, to make sure everyone gets along. Adopters should also be prepared to help Yeti get better with socializing and handling, and remember to do any introductions with either people or animals slowly! If you have any questions about Yeti, or if you would like to visit, please speak with our kennel team & they will be happy to assist!

Story
This sweet young 8 month old husky shepherd mix is on the search for her forever family. She would do best with kids 6 plus due to her shy and nervous nature. Once she warms up to you she is very loving. She will need help to grow into the wonderful companion canine we know she is. Junea came from transfer partner shelter and all we do know is she came from a home with many other husky/shepherd mixes and likely missed out on some important socializing. Junea will need help with potty training, crate training, and building her confidence with her new family. Our kennel team can guide you on how to help her succeed. If you have any canines currently we will require a dog to dog introduction to make sure everyone gets along. Junea has some wonderful potential but it will be important to stay consistent and patient as she adjust to regular home life. If you would like to meet Junea or have any questions please speak with our kennel team.

Story
Berger Blanc Suisse (White Swiss Shepherd). He is a very sweet and smart dog. Very good with children, women, and other dogs. He is a great pet for someone that has time for walks and play daily. We are a very busy household and unfortunately cannot give him all the attention that he needs or deserves. He is very chill in the home and lays around most of the day. He is a great alarm system and will alert you if anyone comes near the door. He is trained on basic commands. No jumping, doesn't climb on furniture. He loves to play fetch and loves a good belly rub.

Story
Hunter Henry is an adorable 3-month-old German Shepherd mix with bright eyes, big paws, and a big personality. He’s smart, curious, and full of puppy energy. Because he’s so young and eager to learn, training should begin as soon as he comes home. Shepherd mixes pick up habits quickly, so consistency, patience, and positive reinforcement will be essential to help him grow into a well-mannered adult. Breed experience is strongly recommended, as German Shepherd mixes require confident, knowledgeable handling and ongoing structure. Hunter Henry is currently a nippy boy, which is normal at this age, but adopters will need to work on redirecting that behavior with appropriate chew toys and by teaching bite inhibition. He will also need early guidance around food guarding to build positive associations and prevent the behavior from escalating. As an intelligent, active puppy, he’ll need plenty of enrichment and mental stimulation. Puzzle toys, training sessions, sniffing games, and interactive play will help keep him engaged. Without enough structure and stimulation, puppies can become bored quickly, so keeping both his mind and body busy will be key to his success.
