Story
Kilo's story begins with a lovely owner who unfortunately passed when Kilo was only 2. From there, he went to a shelter where he seemed to get along fine with other dogs, then was adopted by a family who had a few dogs of their own that did not get along with Kilo. That's when and why he came to us, and once he was in our home he had officially loathed other dogs and would try to attack them. We have worked on this for the last few years with minimal progress, but still progress. He should not be in a home with or unleashed around other dogs, but he can finally run the fence line happily with our neighbors dogs. Kilo is terrified of rain/storms, is allergic to chicken & it's byproduct, and he has low-level separation anxiety (he doesn't eat or drink when we aren't home). He loves to snuggle and play outside, along with walks/bike rides. Unfortunately, situations have come up that no longer allow us to keep him. He is a very good boy, and he deserves a good home.

Story
Lily is a very loving, hyper girl. I got her as a puppy from a no harm shelter. The place I’m living won’t allow her to come inside and I’m moving very soon, so the place I’m moving to won’t allow me to bring her. She needs a home that will show her lots of love and attention. She hasn’t been around other animals, so I don’t know how she will be around them, she is hyper and tends to jump on kids wanting to play. She also would do best around women owners. Men can be present, but not as sole owners. She has a fear of males, but can tolerate them if a woman is present.

Story
We took on this sweet girl from a bad situation (family acquaintance) after the person decided to get rid of her and all of her puppies. Annie (we started calling her Frankie. Seemed to fit better. She doesn’t really respond to either lol) was kept outside 24/7, was fed cat food even while breast feeding, had no access to clean drinking water, and was extremely skinny. My heart moved quicker than my brain because we already have 2 dogs. She gets along great with them but she is younger so she plays nonstop with my golden who is docile and doesn’t know when to say no so we separate them. My older lab doesn’t really care too much for her. She doesn’t mind the cats at all and cares more about their food. She is very energetic and playful. She loves to chew. She has had no training whatsoever. She sort of knows sit. She loves to cuddle. I have a collar, leash, kennel, bed, food bowls, and toys for her. She has the potential to be an amazing dog and needs more than what we can offer her

Story
Hello! This is Aphrodite. She is an absolute couch potato, loves sunbathing, and does well with kids. She is both potty and crate trained, and due to her age, is pretty low energy. She has bursts here and there, but it only lasts for a few minutes. She is not currently experiencing any medical needs. She does well with other animals, and would prefer, though not require, a slower paced home. She doesn't like thunder or fireworks, but she is an absolute snuggle bug! She is free to who promises to love her the way that I have.

Story
Meet Patrick, one year old. He's an anxious little guy and will take time to settle (3-4 weeks to see his trusting side with humans - dogs earn his trust earlier). Patrick feels safe under furniture, esp. beds, but he also loves cuddling once he's trusting. He has done very well having my dog as a reference, and I'd strongly prefer his forever home to have another dog to show him the ropes.My mom adopted Patrick in Jan 2026 but recently moved into assisted living. She was not in a place to give Patrick the best coaching. He's still getting house trained and learning routine. We are about 70% there - accidents still happen about 3-4x a week - notably, accidents only occur when I'm home, not when I'm out - a skilled trainer may have no issues. Light nipping issues when playing (no biting).Patrick will do best in a patient, quieter home (but still engaging - loves playtime) that can give him time to settle in, but he's definitely on the way to being the best good boy.
