Story
ABOUT NYLA Meet Nyla, a 1-year-old Lab mix with a heart full of curiosity, energy, and love! Nyla came to HAP from a high-intake shelter in the South and has quickly shown herself to be a friendly, happy-go-lucky girl who thrives on attention and activity. She’s outgoing, goofy, and loves meeting new people, she may even try to climb into your lap to greet you! Nyla is social and has done well in a previous home with children and cats, making her a versatile companion. She’s still learning some basic manners but appears house-trained and walks well on leash with a harness. Treat motivated and eager to please, Nyla quickly picks up new tricks and loves mental challenges. This playful girl adores toys, she’ll toss them in the air for fun and will happily chew on hard bones. In her kennel, she curls up like a tiny ball with her nose tucked in, showing her softer, cozy side. Nyla would thrive in an active home that can provide training, supervision, and plenty of adventures; she would make an amazing hiking partner, playmate, and all-around bundle of joy for the right family! 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.

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!

Story
Houston, We’ve Got a Heart-Stealer Meet Astro, a 6-month-old lab mix weighing in at about 40 pounds of pure puppy joy. This guy is super fun, extra goofy, and comes with premium floppable ears that fly in the wind when he runs (honestly, it’s better than cable). Astro is great with everyone he meets and does well with other dogs, so he’s basically the social coordinator of the dog world. He’s still a puppy, which means you’ll get all the fun, silly moments that come with a young pup—plus plenty of chances to laugh at his antics. If your home could use more zoomies, more smiles, and more tail wags, Astro is ready to blast off into your life. February 6, 2026, 9:02 am

Story
Meet Dagon Dagon is a gentle senior Black Lab who arrived at the shelter through no fault of his own when his beloved owner lost their home. After spending years as a loyal best friend, Dagon is now hoping for a second chance at the comfort of a forever family. True to his Lab nature, Daogn is loving, calm, and eager to please. He enjoys leisurely walks, soft beds, and anything that involves being close to his people. His biggest joy is quiet companionship — sitting nearby, soaking up kind words and gentle pets. Even after all he’s been through, his tail still wags easily and his heart remains wide open. Dagon would be happiest in a peaceful home where he can relax, be cherished, and enjoy his golden years surrounded by love. In return, he offers devotion, gratitude, and the unmatched sweetness only a senior dog can give. If you’re looking for a loyal companion who will fill your home with warmth and quiet love,Dagon is ready to meet you. January 17, 2026, 11:10 am
