Story
Kristine is at our shelter. Please submit an application from our website or just come in to meet her during open hours! Scroll through her pictures to see her cute video content! Kristine and her brother Dave made the journey here all the way from Alabama. We recently had their mom, Aurora, who was quickly adopted. Aurora and her babies were rescued from a crowded shelter in rural Alabama, and taken to a nice foster home where they got healthy and awaited adoption or transport up north. We are happy to have her here! We knew her mom and how sweet she was, so it must be in their genes! Kristine is an absolute doll! She is trusting and loving, and such a sweetheart. She is still learning how to walk on a leash, but so far that seems to be her only "short coming," if you can even call it that! Since she is a puppy, and a smart and very food-motivated one at that, by the time anyone reads this she is probably already walking better on leash than most of our other dogs who have been doing it far longer! We hope you will come and meet this sweet southern girl soon! She deserves a home to call her own, once and for all. Kristine’s adoption fee is $450. She is spayed and up to date on core vaccines. She will need a Heartworm test between 6-7 months of age, to be done at her adopter's vet.

Story
Gee Gee is an absolutely wonderful girl who just wants to be close to her people. She will happily wiggle her way right up to you, trying to get as close as she can for some love and attention. She enjoys going on walks and watching the world go by, taking in all the sights and people around her. She may be a little shy at first, but give her a moment—add in some playtime or a tasty treat—and she quickly warms up and shows her sweet, affectionate personality.

Story
Darla is a 9 year old American Lab. She has been in our family her entire life. She is really the sweetest girl. She’s been around children and babies as I have a 3 and a 4 year old. She does run from them when they try to ride her :-) She is active, loves to chase bunnies in our yard, but hasn’t caught one yet. She’s a good watch dog, always alerting us when people come by the house. This is painful to let her go. She is literally so special to our family, but we need to relocate and have no one to take her. I’m hoping to find a good family for her.

Story
Meet Frido ❤️ Frido's story is one of resilience, patience, and learning that not every human is something to fear. When Frido first arrived, it was clear life hadn't always been kind to him. He carries a large scar across his lower back—a reminder of a past we may never fully know. He was terrified of everything. His tail stayed tucked, he never made a sound, and even the smallest movement could send him scrambling for safety. But little by little, Frido has started to discover what it means to feel safe. Today, his tail proudly comes up on walks, he occasionally finds his voice in the yard, and he's even beginning to learn how to play. He's still figuring it out, and his play style can be a little rough around the edges, but watching him learn how to simply be a dog has been incredibly rewarding. Frido is potty trained, walks well on leash, and is very food motivated, making him a great candidate for continued confidence-building and training. He gets along well with smaller dogs and would do best with older, respectful children who understand that trust takes time. His kennel is his favorite place in the world—a safe haven where he can relax and decompress whenever he needs to. While Frido has made tremendous progress, he's not a dog who will trust overnight. He needs a patient adopter who will let him move at his own pace, celebrate the small victories, and understand that earning his trust is a journey. The reward? Watching a dog who once lived in fear slowly realize he's finally home. If you have a calm heart, a little patience, and a lot of love to give, Frido may be waiting for you.

Story
Meet Moka — a beautiful tripod girl with the sweetest soul and loving demeanor. Originally from Mexico, Moka has overcome a lot in her life, but you’d never know it from her gentle spirit. Incredibly affectionate, she's happiest when she’s close to her people. Whether you’re cooking in the kitchen, working in another room, or relaxing on the couch, Moka will quietly follow along just to be near you. Moka seems to be completely house trained and gently nudges your hand and looks toward the door to indicate she needs to go outside. Because Moka is still adjusting to life as a tripod, she’ll need a patient and understanding adopter who can give her the time she needs. Sometimes she needs to pause and take breaks while finding the perfect spot to do her business. She would likely thrive in a one-story home, as slippery stairs — especially going down — can be challenging for tripod dogs. Moka adores people and loves companionship. She may also do well with another calm dog around her size. More than anything, Moka is looking for a loving home where she can feel safe, supported, and part of the family. Moka would likely do best in a home where someone is home all the time to keep her company.
