Story
Meet Bobo, a sweet-faced, seven-month-old terrier mix with a playful spirit and lots of love to give! This energetic puppy would thrive with an active family who can give him plenty of exercise, playtime, and affection. Bobo has been professionally trained and understands basic commands and willingly goes into his crate on his own. He’s never met a squirrel he didn’t want to befriend, and balls and toys are among his favorite things. Lovable and full of puppy enthusiasm, Bobo is ready to bring joy, laughter, and plenty of tail-wagging adventures to his new home.November 10, 2026, 2:08 pm

Story
This friend has just arrived to us on transport from a high-intake shelter partner! When our friends are new to us, we are often unsure of their full background. Our staff will spend some time getting to know them and update their bio with more information as we learn. They are pending interactions with animals until they have been cleared by our vet. Please note that we often are unsure of house, crate, car, and leash training status upon arrival. If you are interested in adopting this dog, please submit an adoption questionnaire! Our adoption process is on a first-come, best-match basis and we are not able to hold animals. If you are interested in this specific dog but it ends up not being the best fit upon meeting, our adoption counselors will work with you to help find a match! All household members, including children and other dogs, must come along for the meeting to make sure it's a good fit. If a match is made, we encourage same-day adoptions! Our adoption fees include the animals' spay/neuter, microchip, age-appropriate vaccinations and preventatives, fecal testing, heartworm testing, and a small bag of food to get you started.

Story
Benny is a 10-year-old Jack Russell terrier who I’ve had for eight years, fostered from a local shelter. He unfortunately needs to be rehomed due to a new work schedule that has me out of state for most of the month and not able to give him the life he deserves. He is a playful dog with high energy and enjoys tug-of-war and fetch. Loves to cuddle and loves to sleep in bed. Hoping to find a good home for a wonderful dog.

Story
This is Rubble. This handsome boy came to us from a partner shelter transport. Rubble is a very mellow, and well-mannered dog. He walks well on a leash, knows sit, takes treats nicely (when he wants to), and loves to cuddle you and give kisses. He will even stop in the middle of playing with his toys to come over and give you a kiss! Rubble can be an attention hog sometimes and gets jealous easily so going home with someone who can give him their undivided attention would be the best fit. If you are looking for a handsome, sweet, and funny little guy to bring home come meet Rubble! If you are interested in adopting this dog, please submit an adoption questionnaire!
