Meet Lilac, our stunning Lab/Black Mouth Cur mix with a heart as beautiful as her name.

Now fully vetted, Lilac is ready to find a forever home she can truly count on. She can be shy at first but when she warms up she is affectionate, and gets along well with other dogs.

Dudley is a sweet, affectionate 2-year-old male weighing around 65 lbs. Partially blind and deaf, he doesn’t let that slow him down. He walks nicely on leash and just needs gentle guidance to avoid obstacles — if he loses track, he’ll give your leg a soft “bonk” to reorient himself.Dudley enjoys short walks, stuffed toys, and being outside. After a 20-minute stroll, he’s ready to chill for the rest of the day. He lets you know when he needs to potty and loves foraging for treats as enrichment.He’s social with other dogs (especially if they make physical contact), and he’s currently thriving in a foster home with other dogs, cats, and kids. Dudley also responds to touch cues — a double tap on his bottom means “sit.”Dudley is looking for a patient, loving home to guide him safely and show him how wonderful life can be!October 27, 2025, 6:10 pm
