Story
Meet Charlie, a bundle of energy and affection waiting for a forever home. He`s 50 pounds of energy in a 20-pound body. This adult dog is fully house trained and loves nothing more than cuddling up on a lap, making him the perfect companion for cozy evenings. While he`s reactive and jumpy on walks, his lovable nature shines through with proper guidance and patience. He was given up because of his barking and reactions during walks when seeing people and other animals. Charlie is often misunderstood, but beneath his lively exterior lies a heart full of love. Your biggest challenge with Charlie will be not allowing him to escape. He`s a pro and could run a school teaching other dogs how to quickly race out the door to search for adventure. He likes car rides, running, walks, toys, and water and he knows the sit command. In a previous home several years ago, he was friendly and playful with dogs and cats. However, due to his recent situation, you will need to bring your dog to meet him. Adopting Charlie means gaining a loyal friend who will bring joy and companionship to your life.

Story
If you’ve ever wished for a tiny shadow with a wagging tail, Magpie is your girl.   This small black-and-white terrier mix is as sweet as they come. She’s cuddly, affectionate, and absolutely devoted to her people. Once she decides you’re hers, you’ll never walk alone again — kitchen, bathroom, laundry room… Magpie will be right there, just in case you needed moral support.   She gets along well with other small dogs, but make no mistake — her favorite place in the world is wherever you are. She will happily follow you from room to room, gazing up at you like you’re the best thing that’s ever happened to her (because in her world, you are).   Magpie would thrive in a home where someone is around often and doesn’t mind a little extra love and attention. She isn’t just looking for a house — she’s looking for her person.   If you’re ready for a loyal, cuddly, tiny best friend who will adore you with her whole heart, Magpie is waiting. DisclaimerThe information in this profile reflects observations made while this dog has been in our shelter environment. We strive to describe each dog as accurately as possible; however, behavior and needs may change once the dog is in a new home, routine, or environment.Our dogs are not freeroaming in homes. When we note that a dog is “potty trained,” this refers to reliable crate training, not confirmed freeroam house training. Accidents are normal during the transition to a new home, and additional training should be expected.All dogs are examined by our veterinarian, are spayed or neutered if old enough, and are up to date on ageappropriate vaccinations at the time of adoption. We share all known medical information, but we cannot guarantee future health or rule out underlying conditions. 2 years old  9.7 lbs ##2662757##

Story
Hi! I’m Luann, but everyone calls me “Lu.” I’m a happy, playful, and snuggly love bug looking for my forever family. I like to stay busy with walks, playing tug and fetch, wrestling, and stalking lizards and bugs in the backyard. I also enjoy going to doggy daycare and working on my training. After a long day, my favorite thing to do is tuck myself into my blankie on my foster mom’s lap. I’m very smart and learn commands quickly. I already know "sit," "down," "touch," "place," "crate," "come," and even some agility commands. I really love learning new things! While I can be a little shy around new people and dogs, I warm up quickly with calm introductions, time, and treats. I haven’t been around cats or children yet, so I’m not sure how I’d feel about them. I would love to find an active home where I can get lots of pets and cuddles.

Story
Lola is the sweetest and kindest friend who only wishes to love you at all times. We are currently looking for any loving and patient persons/families to take in the 7 year old boxer mix. We are fostering her for a friend due to potential signs of jealousy (before, Lola was very protective of the baby), there was no harm but they did not want to take any chances. She is very friendly to all and loves to play, especially with rope toys. She will stick to you like tape and will want to be by your side almost all the time. She is house trained, knows the “sit, stay, lay down” command and responds to her name (Does need practice). She does not bark loudly and can be easily scared at times due to how poorly she was treated early in life. If you are at all interested or have any other questions please contact us.
