Story

Toby is a special boy looking for a forever person. He's 4.5 years old and 65 lbs, fully house/crate trained, loves walks and going on car rides. He was owned by an older couple who unfortunately had to go to assisted living so they surrendered him. He lived with an older husky in his previous home but doesn't love most other animals in his space. He does well meeting new people one on one and when he trusts you he will be the best protector and loves to give kisses. He would do best with someone who has a calmer lifestyle and wants a buddy to follow them around and watch out for them. He's had a couple different homes now so would love to have a true forever place of his own! If interested in meeting this dude, please put an application in at www.foreverhomedogs.org!All adoptions are $300 per dog for puppies under 1 year, $250 for adults 1 - 9 years old and $150 for senior dogs which include spay/neuter, micro-chipped and up-to-date on required shots. Senior dogs, at our discretion, are adopted out at $150 per dog because we know they will have less time with your family and may eventually have more needs as they get older. But we feel these dogs deserve to live out the rest of their lives as part of a loving family.

Story

Jax is a handsome 85lb lab mix guy looking for a retirement home. His previous owners had to move and couldn't take him with them, so he's ready for forever. He is house/crate trained and *loves* exploring the yard and barking at squirrels. He's been fine with easy-going dogs who don't take over his personal space and would be fine as the king of his castle as well. He is always down for a walk or car ride and just wants to be part of a family of his own. His adoption fee is $150 - if interested in meeting this senior lovebug, apply at www.foreverhomedogs.org!All adoptions are $300 per dog for puppies under 1 year, $250 for adults 1 - 9 years old and $150 for senior dogs which include spay/neuter, micro-chipped and up-to-date on required shots.

Story

Rowena is an 11 year old lab mix (we did a DNA test and it came back lab/chow/golden retriever/pointer and several others) - about 60 lbs. She is house/kennel trained, and definitely wants to learn how to dog! She was found in 2019 living in a wood pile in Oklahoma protecting her puppies, so has some trauma there that needs worked through and a dedicated adopter will do so much for her. She needs a very structured living environment and a strong dog-savvy owner. She loves to be outside so would enjoy a nice physically fenced yard (no invisible fencing with her history, sorry). Privacy fencing will be preferred as she guards her territory. She will not do well in an apartment setting since she has a fear of strangers and needs muzzled on walks in strange places. She has been through heartworm treatment and will require an adopter who will keep her on preventatives and regular testing. She does well with dogs as long as they aren't tiny/can't be mistaken for squirrels or rabbits. She chases cats. She is food protective with other dogs, so will need to be fed separate / in kennel as a precaution. Once she is comfortable with you, she likes to snuggle and give kisses and hugs -- but it may take a few weeks for her to warm up fully. No kids for Roe -- fast movements and small creatures with her don't mix. Her adoption fee is $150. If you have an easy-going and patient lifestyle that will give this girl the structure she needs and are interested in meeting Rowena, please put an application in at www.foreverhomedogs.org and we will set up a meet with you!All adoptions are $300 per dog for puppies under 1 year, $250 for adults 1 - 9 years old and $150 for senior dogs which include spay/neuter, micro-chipped and up-to-date on required shots.

Story

These two girls are actively looking for a forever or foster home because unfortunately their owner suddenly passed away. Harper & Lilly are both a little over 7 years old lab mixes.From 4 Paws Unleashed, where the girls currently reside-🏡I have personally taken these girls home for a week and they are both super easy going dogs. Fully potty trained, they were walked on leash their entire life for potty breaks so they are use to doing their business and coming back inside. I have a fenced in yard and they also did great with that. I have 2 boys (9 & 6) who are loud and entergetic. The girls did great with them. I also own 2 black labs who are young, wild and super playful. Both girls slept a lot but also played with my dogs when they were in the mood to. In an attempted adoptive home, the dogs did not get along with the resident dogs. It may be best for them to go to a home as only dogs. They do bark when someone first arrives at the house but settle quickly. They are very attatched so they do insist to be together or within sight of one another. When leaving the house they do not need created as they just hang out together. However they are crate trained if you prefer they be crated. Harper and Lily’s adoption fees have been waived for an approved adopter.All adoptions are $300 per dog for puppies under 1 year, $250 for adults 1 - 9 years old and $150 for senior dogs which include spay/neuter, micro-chipped and up-to-date on required shots. Senior dogs, at our discretion, are adopted out at $150 per dog because we know they will have less time with your family and may eventually have more needs as they get older.

Story

Meet the snack puppies! These little cuties look like mini labs and also have some Heeler and terrier thrown in the mix. They’re 8 weeks old and 6-8 pounds, and we estimate they’ll be around (estimate here) full grown. They’re yet another accidental litter, but thankfully mom will be getting fixed with the owner and these pups will find great forever homes and all be fixed to stop the cycle of endless unwanted litters. They’re happy, playful puppies who adore attention. They have great temperaments and will make fantastic family companions! Girls: Nilla, Goldfish, Cheez-It, Pringle Boys: Funyan, Chex
