Story
Meet Olive! Olive is a sweet and floppy girl that is ready to find her forever home! Olive came to us with her babies from not the greatest of conditions, but that has not stopped her from being super affectionate and wanting to be a self-proclaimed lap dog. Olive has been able to spend some time in a foster home and has completely come out of her shell! She can be a little protective over her food around other animals so feeding separately will be best for her. Being a Great Dane, she is more susceptible to medical issues such as bloat, so she will need her food given to her ideally in an elevated food bowl to help her digest it better. Olive will need help with her basic training like potty training and manners. Olive has been around other dogs and loves to have a playmate she can wrestle and run around with. When meeting new people or animal friends, slow introductions are best to make sure they become BFFs. Olive has met cats previously and ignores them for the most part, but can also become interested. We are recommending Olive goes home with a canine companion to help keep her company. She will need to meet any dogs already in the home prior to adoption though. Olive can be a little destructive and vocal when she`s bored or alone so someone that is able to be home with her is ideal. Olive is a big lanky girl that tends to not know her own size so children that are dog savvy and understand her boundaries will be a perfect fit. She will most likely need a single-family style home with a secured fenced in yard because she has hopped a 6 foot fence previously. Additionally, we are requiring that Olive`s new family are not first-time dog owners due to her breed and some anxiety. If you think Olive is the one for you a Kennel Technician will be happy to help!*Adopters should be aware of breed and size restrictions if renting*

Story
Buddy is a handsome, energetic, 152-pound Blue (grey) Great Dane. He is super smart and very obedient. We believe Buddy is about three years old and has no health issues. He also loves people, playing fetch with the huge ball - just like a retriever - bringing it back over and over. Buddy’s only shortfall (and the reason he needs a new home) was with another one of our male Great Danes in a struggle for dominance. It absolutely breaks our hearts to see him go, but he will do very well in a home with other female dogs or even as a sole companion (only dog in the home). He currently lives on a farm and loves to run around at top speed whenever he can. He is inquisitive and attentive to commands - he lives to please. Much like Buddy from the movie ‘Elf,' he’s big, lovable and gets the most out of life. He’s a “Velcro” dog that will steal your heart. ***Good with Female Dogs*** Please include your home area code and a phone number where a volunteer can reach you when contacting us about an adoption.

Story
Meet Sally! This sweet girl and her siblings were brought to us some time ago via one of our shelter partners. These guys have had a rough start in life, but have been nothing short of loving and playful puppies. They are now ready to find their forever homes after being in the care of our Nursery team and spending some time in foster homes. Sally interacted and met some bigger dogs in her foster home and had a blast! She is a typical puppy, meaning she is naturally curious, playful, affectionate and a little mischievous. Sally would do well with a canine friend in the home or to have someone keep her company throughout the day - most puppies get bored when they don`t get to burn off their puppy energy! We always ask adopters to do slow introductions when meeting new animals or people and to keep initial interactions short and sweet. Overall, if you are looking for a sweet girl to adopt and have her live her best life, Sally just might be the one for you! If you are interested in meeting Sally or one of her siblings, please ask a Kennel technician for assistance and any inquiries you have!***If applicable, please check with leasing offices/landlords/HOAs for both breed AND weight restrictions. We are unsure how big these cuties will be once fully grown, but puppies tend to grow until they are around a year old or so.***

Story
Apple Jacks, Froot Loops, and Cap`n Crunch are in a Foster home together. Notes from Foster: Fruit loops is the most nervous of these three, and it takes her a long time to get comfortable with people. Once she does, she’s very affectionate! She doesn’t love being picked up, but loves playing and will always sleep on you.

Notes from her foster family!`Cocoa Puffs is a very affectionate and playful pup. She loves to jump around a dance with you. She also prefers to sleep in your arms, but will settle for an oversized pillow. She loves to snuggle and play tug. She sits and waits patiently when you get her food ready, but is a fast eater.`
