Story
Millie is such a cutie and does so great with humans-she will literally leap in to your arms! She does however have a great dislike of other canines and will vocalize her displeasure and can get snippy with other dogs and so must not be in a home with another dog around. People are great! She does love to go in the car and her fosters take her along everywhere which is awesome! Millie does have a rather significant collapse in her airway system so cannot ever be put under anesthesia so will need to remain intact. She also cannot wear a collar but is kept in a harness instead. She can live a long, happy life as long as her new people understand that her acitivy level definitely needs to be monitored-but she is great with kids and would make a great family pet as long as their are no other dogs around!January 7, 2026, 4:33 pm

Story
Meet Zola — a 4-year-old Jack Russell/Cocker Spaniel mix with a big heart and an even bigger love for her people. At 26 pounds, Zola is the perfect “medium-sized bestie”: sweet, affectionate, and always up for a walk, a game, or a treat (or three). Zola is spayed, microchipped, and up to date on vaccines, and she comes with some excellent at-home manners. She’s fully house-trained, crate-trained, and can comfortably hang out alone during the day. She loves attention and will happily soak up pets and cuddles, then switch gears into playful mode when it’s time for fun. Zola does well with other dogs and cats and is friendly with everyone she meets. She may give a little alert bark now and then, but she’s never shown aggression—just a loyal pup who likes to let you know what’s happening. If you’re looking for a gentle, loving companion who will brighten your days, Zola is ready to meet you.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Layken is the sweetest little girl with wonderful house manners and an affectionate, easygoing personality. She plays beautifully with other dogs and absolutely loves to cuddle.   Her foster home has two large dogs, and Layken became fast friends with both right away. She’s a smart girl who quickly learned how to use the dog doors and picked up on the household routines with ease.   When playtime is over, Layken is happiest snuggled up with her people or curled beside a dog friend. She’s the perfect mix of playful and cuddly.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Meet Marie! Marie is a gentle, timid sweetheart who just needs a little time and patience to feel safe in a new environment. Once she knows she’s secure, her true personality shines—and she is truly the sweetest little lovebug! Marie adores playing with other dogs and would be thrilled to have a canine friend in her forever home. She’s also a soft-toy connoisseur and a master thief of blankets and towels—her foster says she loves to sneak them away for cozy snuggles. Because she can be shy and startle easily, Marie requires a secure, physically fenced yard to help her feel safe as she settles in. She may start out shy, but Marie’s heart is pure gold. With the right person or family, she will blossom into the most loyal, affectionate companion. If you’re looking for a sensitive soul who will reward your patience with endless love, Marie is your girl.    Medical Notes: Microchipped Vaccinated Dewormed Maintained on monthly preventatives Spayed   Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.December 8, 2025, 3:34 pm
