PLEASE READ ALL NOTES BELOW THE ANIMAL PROFILE! Hi, my name is Lucas! I am such a loving, playful and goofy boy.

I am good with other dogs after a slow and proper introduction, and I especially love young and playful dogs! I have lots of energy and am looking for someone to exert my energy with! I would be a great addition to a home with someone that is an experienced dog owner, has a backyard and lives an active lifestyle. I would do best with humans that will continue my training and with older kids in the home. I am fully vetted, and crate trained! Im currently in a foster home and my foster mom is teaching me boundaries and the good life.

Story
He’s 12 weeks old and comes from AKC and OFA-registered parents. While we do not provide papers (as this puppy is not for breeding), rest assured his lineage is outstanding. We're looking for a loving forever home where he will be cherished as a family member, not a commodity.

Story
Meet Karlee, a 3-year-old purebred golden retriever. She’s an incredibly sweet girl who adores people, kids, and other animals. She is especially gentle with babies and gets along with everyone she meets. Karlee is always thrilled to see her friends. She is fully potty trained and never has accidents. She loves snuggling on furniture but listens well when asked to get down. It breaks my heart to re-home her, we love her deeply. But as a full-time working single parent now returning to school, I cant give her the time, love, and attention she deserves. Karlee thrives on affection and connection. She used to go on daily walks and loved socializing, but lately, she only goes out for potty breaks. I hope someone will give her the love and attention I’m unable to provide for her.

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Meet Bodhi – Your Loyal, Loving, Life-of-the-Party Pup! This big, beautiful 2-year-old Goldendoodle is searching for his forever home – and trust me, he’s a gem! One of the happiest dogs you'll ever meet – Bodhi’s tail wags with pure joy, and his heart is set on pleasing you. Saying he's "velcro" doesn't quite cut it... this boy is glue! Housebroken & trustworthy – Bodhi has been left home alone with zero issues. Built-in security system – His rooster-like bark will let you know when someone’s near (no batteries required!). Dog-friendly dynamo – Whether your pup is big or small, Bodhi’s ready to run, jump, and play! (He hasn’t met cats yet, so that’s still a mystery.) Cuddle pro – When you’re ready for bed, so is he. Bodhi will snuggle in and sleep soundly through the night. He may have been previously certified as an emotional support dog. Endless potential – Bodhi’s eager to learn and would thrive with someone who can teach him new tricks and give him the love he deserves. If you’re looking for a loyal companion who will stick by your side (literally), Bodhi’s your guy! Our rescue brought Bodhi up to date on all his shots, and now he just needs to be neutered. Bodhi will need more socialization out in public and will need some leash training as well. Please reach out if you’d like to meet this lovable goofball. He’s ready to be your shadow, your protector, and most importantly – your best friend.
