Story
Nola is a beautiful, soft blond retriever mix whose gentle spirit shines through the moment she feels safe. A little shy at first, she takes her time getting to know new people, but once she does, her sweetness and affectionate nature blossom. Nola is the kind of dog who thrives in a calm, mellow home where she can build confidence at her own pace and enjoy quiet companionship. With her soft coat, soulful eyes, and tender heart, she’s ready to be someone’s loyal, loving friend. Nola just needs a patient, understanding family to show her that the world is a kind place—and she’ll fill their home with warmth and devotion in return.THANK YOU FOR YOUR INTEREST IN SAVING A LIFE!Volunteers and staff are excited to assist you in the adoption process!

Story
Meet Anna, a sweet 2-year-old Dachshund/Retriever mix who traveled all the way from out of state to find her forever home. This gentle girl is looking for a quiet place where she can decompress and settle into her new life. Anna would thrive in a patient household where she can take her time to adjust and feel safe. Once she’s comfortable, she’ll be a loyal, loving companion who is sure to fill your home with joy. If you’re looking for a calm, affectionate dog to join your family and you have the time and patience to help her blossom, Anna just might be the perfect fit. Come meet her today! Here is what Anna’s foster had to say about her! What a sweetie! Anna came to us in pretty rough shape. She didn’t know how to interact with people and was too scared to leave her crate. We’ve had her in our home for a while now and she has certainly come out of her shell! She may take a while to warm up to new people, but once she trusts you she is a sweet and goofy dog that loves to receive tummy rubs! Anna is mostly house trained, and has learned to come and sit (almost always!) on command. She loves going out for walks, but can often be startled easily by people. We are still working on getting her confidence up, so someone with a lot of patience would be best… but she is a fast learner! We think she would do well in a quiet home with another dog or as a solo dog with an experienced dog parent. She is also a highly trained sock thief, so watch your hamper!
