Story
Meet Samson: The Snuggly, Shadow-Fearing Sweetheart 🐾 Ever feel like the world doesn’t make sense? That’s how we feel when we think about how Samson ended up at the shelter. This 4-year-old black Lab mix (a perfectly cuddly 50 pounds) was surrendered by his owner for reasons we’ll never understand—probably for being too sweet, too loyal, or too snuggly. Unfortunately, the days turned into weeks, then months, and Samson quietly became the longest resident at the shelter, which is never a good thing for a dog. But just when hope was fading, The Misfit Ranch got a call from shelter staff: “Please help Samson. We all love him.” That was all we needed. We swooped in, and Samson is now thriving in a cozy foster home where he’s proving to be nearly perfect. ✅ House-trained? Check. ✅ Friendly with people and dogs? Absolutely. ✅ Ready for outdoor adventures? Completely—running, hiking, exploring… he’s up for all of it. Now let’s talk about his quirk, because every great character has one. When Samson first arrived in foster care, we thought he struggled only with being alone in small, dark rooms. But as he’s settled in, we’ve learned something important: Samson has some separation anxiety. He isn’t destructive, he doesn’t hurt himself, and he isn’t panicked—he simply cries when he’s left alone. He just really, really wants to be near his people. The good news? He rides wonderfully in the car and settles right down next to you, completely content as long as he isn’t isolated. What he doesn’t want is to be crated in a room by himself. Samson thrives when he can be in a larger, lived-in space where he can hear what’s going on around him and feel connected to his people. He needs an adopter who truly wants a velcro dog to be their best friend, or can tolerate some crying if he's left alone. At his core, Samson is a deeply loving, loyal, and sensitive soul. Despite being let down by humans before, he still greets life with joy, trust, and a big heart that’s just waiting for the right person. He’ll lean into you for pets, follow you from room to room like your slightly oversized shadow, and fall asleep with his chin on your foot because closeness is his love language. So if you’re looking for a sweet, active, adoring best friend… If you have space in your home and patience in your heart for a dog who simply feels safer when you’re nearby… And if you appreciate a companion with the courage of a lion and the quirks of a Pixar character… Samson is your guy. Turn on a light. Open your heart. He’s waiting.

Story
Gunner is an amazing dog!.. He’s 5 years old. Great with children, other dogs, is playful, and extremely friendly. He has been fed on a raw food, and vegetables diet, most of his life. He eats once a day, and is ideal size and weight for his breed, and frame. He is extremely healthy, and vibrant. I do not want to rehome him, but I recently got a job far away, which is impacting this decision. Overall, it’s hurts my heart to put him on here, but I only want him going to a good, loving home. Bottom line, he’s a perfect family dog, or would just be a great friend!

Story
Harlow is a 4-year-old Lab mix (born January 2021) who’s incredibly smart, sweet, and loyal. Sadly, I’ve developed asthma due to allergies, and with our recent move to a no-dog rental, we can no longer give her the life she deserves. She’s kennel trained and currently spends nights inside and days in a 10x10 outdoor run, but she needs more—walks, adventures, and time with someone who will give her the attention she craves. Harlow is full of energy, eager to please, and quick to learn, but she does need leash training and consistency to bring out her best. She thrives on love, structure, and activity, and with the right person she will be the most loyal companion you could ask for. We’re heartbroken to let her go, but we’re committed to finding her the perfect home where she can be truly happy. Serious inquiries only—Harlow deserves the right fit.

Story
I adopted Frankie 5 years ago in South Carolina when I was stationed there. His paper work said he was six months when we got him so he’ll be 6 years in march. I’m looking for a loving home for him. He’s very affectionate and energetic. It hurts me to have to give him up but life changes (kid with another on the way) and increasing career responsibility have made it impossible for us to care for him the way he needs. He’s very excitable and loves to offer his paw. Incredibly intelligent, before moving he was able to ask for water by ringing a bell. He lets you know when he needs to go out to potty.

Story
Need to find home for this 1 year girl. I think it's a Labrador mix. Vacs are done. Dog is crate trained. She is playful with other dogs, she darks and sometimes jumps on to people when on walks. She does pull when on leash, trying to train her not to pull. Need to rehome since this was one of my brothers dogs, he has 2, and he left for rehab for a few months, and he gave us permission to rehome to help lessen the food cost. Rehome fee is negotiable. Crate is also available for $50.

Story
Meet Tiger – A Sweet and Shy Pup Ready for His Forever Home! Meet Tiger - A Sweet and EXTREMELY Shy Pup Ready for His Forever Home With someone who will be patient and take the time to gain his confidence. He has not been around people and is very shy, but not aggressive in any way. Tiger is an adorable mixed-breed puppy with a gentle spirit and a playful heart. His mama, a Golden Retriever/Flat-Coated Retriever mix, was rescued from a high-kill shelter just in time, and Tiger was born safely after her rescue. We Assume his POP may be Dutch Shep because of Tiger's stunning coat pattern. While we don't know who dad was, Tiger has a beautiful, unique merle-patterned coat that makes him stand out from the crowd. This little guy may be shy at first, but we hope to find someone who can bring out his fun, smart, and affectionate personality thru LOVE and Patience. Tiger is a healthy pup who's growing fast and learning about the world one pawstep at a time. He's looking for a loving family that will give him the patience and care he needs to blossom. Adoption fee is $300. He's still too young to be neutered, so the adopter will need to complete that when he's old enough. Interested in giving Tiger a forever home? Email Alphadogpetrescue@yahoo.com to request an adoption application today! Last photo is Tiger's mom a pure retriever. Adoption fee is $300. He’s still too young to be neutered, so the adopter will need to complete that when he’s old enough. Interested in giving Tiger a forever home?
