Story
Sydney is a beautiful German shepherd–cocker spaniel mix with a playful spirit and a whole lot of personality. At first meeting, she can be a little shy, but give her a moment—and a treat—and her true self shines through. Once she warms up, Sydney is energetic, joyful, and always ready for fun. This girl has plenty of pep in her step and loves to play. Toys are a favorite, treats are a huge motivator, and anything that turns into a game instantly has her attention. Sydney is smart and eager to learn, especially when food is involved, making training a great way to build her confidence and channel her energy. Sydney would thrive in a home that enjoys an active lifestyle and is excited to help her continue gaining confidence. She benefits from patience, consistency, and positive reinforcement, and once she feels safe, she becomes a loyal, affectionate companion who loves to be part of the action. If you’re looking for a fun, high-energy pup who just needs a little time to open her heart, Sydney may be the perfect match. She’s ready to find a home that will love her playful nature and help her grow into the confident, happy dog she’s meant to be.

Story
Meet Benji, a gentle, golden-hearted Golden Retriever who’s ready for a fresh start. This sweet boy was abandoned at a dog park and spent two long days wandering alone, hoping someone would notice him. Thankfully, a kind Good Samaritan stepped in, and now Benji is safe, loved, and dreaming of a forever home. Despite his rough beginning, Benji’s spirit shines bright. He’s friendly, affectionate, and eager to bond with anyone willing to give him patience and love. He adores belly rubs, happily wags his tail at every new friend he meets, and is already showing how much he wants to please. Benji has all the classic qualities of a Golden Retriever: charm, sweetness, and a deep desire to be close to his people. He loves companionship, is gentle and loyal, and brings a goofy joy to every interaction. He is ready to learn, settle in, and trust again. Benji will do best in a home where he’s treated as part of the family by someone who can provide stability, kindness, and plenty of affection. He has been through more than any dog should, but he remains full of love and hope. If you’re looking for a devoted companion who will repay your care with endless loyalty and happiness, Benji may be the perfect match. He is so ready to love you.

Story
Meet Ginger, a 3-year-old, 50 lb retriever/hound mix with a curious mind and a heart full of love. Ginger is affectionate and playful when she’s not busy checking out her surroundings. She’s known for her “sneak-attack kisses” and loves nothing more than snuggling on the couch after a good walk. She’s smart and food-motivated, already knows sit, shake, and come, and is learning place and down. Ginger is comfortable in a crate, sleeps soundly through the night, and often chooses her crate as a comfy hangout spot. With her active energy, she thrives on walks and adventures, but also has a softer, cuddly side once she’s settled. Ginger would do best in an active home with someone who can keep her busy, continue her training, and give her plenty of enrichment. She can be excitable and pulls on leash when overstimulated, so a patient owner committed to helping her practice good manners will set her up for success. She can be (situational) reactive to cats (especially from the crate) and may have some prey drive, so a cat-free home is ideal. Low-shedding, affectionate, and eager to please, Ginger is the kind of dog who will reward your time and effort with endless love, loyalty, and adventures. If you are interested in meeting Ginger, please fill out an adoption application on our website!
