Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Meet Creek… a gentle giant with a heart that’s been waiting far too long for someone to notice it. Creek is a 3-year-old Great Dane, neutered, fully vaccinated, crate and house trained, and ready to leave his past behind for good. This handsome boy came to us from Louisiana, where a busy household with lots of children, simply didn’t have the time or resources to help him thrive. As a result, Creek is currently underweight and needs to gain about 20–30 pounds to reach a healthy, strong condition. Think of him as a masterpiece still in progress… the structure is there, now he just needs the care to truly shine. Despite everything, Creek’s spirit is beautifully intact. He’s a big boy in every sense, and like many Great Danes, he can be protective of his space and his people. At times, he can be overly protective, and with a 100+ pound dog coming toward you, that can absolutely be intimidating. And if your a kid, well he can knock them over easily.  Because of this, Creek will do best with an experienced owner, ideally someone familiar with Great Danes or other giant breeds, who can provide confident leadership and guidance to help him feel secure and balanced and no children, or older children only. But beneath that watchful presence is a deeply loyal companion who is just waiting to bond with “his person.” Once you’re in his circle, you’re in for life. Creek isn’t just a handsome face, he’s got the brains to match. He knows “sit,” “down,” “shake,” and “stay,” and he’s eager to keep learning. He’s the kind of dog who watches you closely, trying to understand, trying to connect… like he’s been waiting for someone to finally show him what home feels like. One of Creek’s favorite things? Other dogs. He truly enjoys canine companionship and would love a doggy friend in his new home to help keep him entertained and build his confidence. A buddy to romp with, relax with, and remind him that life can be good. Creek is looking for a home that understands large breeds and will give him the structure, nutrition, and love he’s been missing. In return, you’ll get a devoted guardian, a soulful companion, and a couch-sized shadow who just wants to be near you. If you’re ready to help Creek write his comeback story… he’s ready to meet you.

Story
Ashly is a gentle, loving girl who is just beginning to discover how wonderful life can be. In just a few short days in her foster home, she’s already made beautiful progress—going from shy and unsure to seeking out comfort and connection with her people. She has a naturally calm, easygoing personality and seems happiest lounging nearby or curled up on the couch for snuggles. At night, she’s proven what a sweetheart she is by settling right into bed with her humans, soaking up all the love she can get. Ashly enjoys short walks and is great on a leash, and she’s fully potty trained and kennel trained as well. Ashly does well with other animals, including dogs and cats, and has even enjoyed some light playtime with her canine foster sibling. She’s also handled new environments with quiet bravery—venturing out and observing the world at her own pace. While she can be a bit timid when meeting new people, especially in the home, she simply takes a moment to feel safe and will benefit from slow, gentle introductions. She’s incredibly patient, sweet-natured, and eager to build trust with the people around her. With a little time and kindness, her affectionate, loyal personality continues to shine more each day. Ashly would thrive in a home that understands the value of patience and gentle encouragement. In return, she’ll offer the softest companionship, a warm presence by your side, and a heart full of love just waiting to be shared.
