Story

Nova knows basic commands, loves people more than playing with toys but will play, and does agility work - she loves working for treats and learning! She would be best as the only dog in the home, she is a true princess that prefers the company of people to dogs. Nova Star would love to find a family that treats her like the princess she is and make her part of the family. Her adoption fee is $350 and includes her spay, microchip and current vaccinations.

Story
How this pet arrived: Echo was brought in by a community member on January 2, 2026. Why this pet is the one for you:Echo is a gentle, thoughtful boy who's learning that the world can be a safe and cozy place. When he first entered care, Echo showed signs of fearfulness, and he continues to do best when new things are introduced at his pace. With patience, predictability, and kind guidance, we hope Echo settles in and shows his quiet, endearing presence. Echo thrives in calm environments where expectations are clear and voices are soft. He appreciates being given choice-time to observe, space to step away if needed, and the freedom to approach when he's ready. In return, you'll get to watch his confidence grow in small, meaningful moments. Echo may show avoidant or fearful behavior in novel situations or with unfamiliar people. Because of this, he's best suited for a quieter home and may not be a candidate for busy public venues or bustling households. A peaceful routine and a patient adopter will help Echo feel secure and supported. If you're looking to offer a calm, understanding home-and find joy in gentle progress-Echo could be the perfect companion to share those quiet, cozy days with. At SDHS:Echo has been vaccinated, microchipped and neutered. Echo is now ready for his new home! Primary Color: Red Secondary Color: Black Weight: 16.8 Age: 1yrs 6mths 1wks

Story
Meet Zander, the paw-some pup with a heart as big as his goofy grin! This gentle pup is a total people-pleaser, always ready to lend a listening ear (or paw) and offer a nudge and a snuggle when you need it. Zander is the epitome of a friendly funny man, with a playful spirit and a gentle soul. He's the kind of buddy who will make you laugh with his silly antics and then comfort you with his unwavering loyalty. Zander is good with other dogs, so he'd be happy to join a pack or be your solo adventure buddy. He's the perfect blend of energy and calm, always up for a game or a good long walk, but just as content to chill and binge-watch your favorite show. Zander is an adult dog, but don't let that fool you – he's got the spirit and enthusiasm of a pup and the wisdom and gentleness of a mature pooch. This fella is a true catch, and he's waiting patiently for his forever family to find him. Could it be you? Come on, you know you want to meet this hilarious hound!

Story
How this pet arrived: Roxy was brought in by our Humane Law Enforcement team on November 20, 2025.Why Roxy is the one for you:Meet Roxy! Roxy is a gentle, resilient sweetheart looking for a home where she can relax and live out her golden years! She came to us as a stray, so we don't know much about her past - but her soft eyes and sweet nature tell us she's ready for a fresh start. Roxy has a few age-related medical quirks, including a removed mass and dental disease. As a short-faced (brachycephalic) pup, she can also find breathing a bit tricky, so she'll do best in a calm home that understands her need for a slower pace and a cool, comfortable environment. Her ideal family is patient, kind, and ready to help her continue feeling her best. In return, she'll offer endless sweetness, grateful cuddles, and the joy of watching her blossom. If you're looking for a lovable companion with a tender spirit, Roxy may be your perfect match. Don't forget to bring a leash and collar!
