Story
Bella is a 2-year-old pitbull, blue heeler, and shar-pei mix weighing about 35 lbs, and she’s already spayed and ready for her forever home. She absolutely loves everyone—kids, other dogs, cats, horses, chickens, goats… if it’s an animal, Bella wants to be its best friend. She’s full of energy and loves to run, play, and splash in the water, but she’s just as happy curling up on the couch or snuggling in bed at the end of the day. She is kennel trained and does great with routine. Bella is deaf, but she’s very smart and does well with visual cues and consistency. She would likely do best in a home with children—she absolutely adores them and will happily follow kids around just to be part of the fun. She does have one important trait to be aware of—Bella is an escape artist. If she wants out, she will find a way, and she can squeeze through incredibly small spaces, so she will need a very secure yard and a watchful home. At her core, Bella is one of the kindest, sweetest dogs you’ll ever meet. She can be a little scared and unsure at first, but once she trusts you, she becomes incredibly loving and loyal. She just needs someone patient who will give her the safety and time she needs to truly shine.

Story
Meet Paul — Wrinkles, Worries, & Winning HeartsPaul is a young Shar Pei mix with the most adorable collection of wrinkles. He’s a part of the shelter’s shy dog program, which basically means he’s a sensitive soul who’s learning that the world isn’t so scary after all—and he’s been getting braver every time he is out.At first, Paul might act like you’re a suspicious stranger in a spy movie, but give him time and space, and you’ll unlock his true form: sweet, gentle, and surprisingly affectionate. Once he trusts you, he’ll start giving out kisses as a reward for your patience. He’s also good off leash and prefers to quietly observe the world before deciding it’s safe enough to join in.His recent big achievement? Following another dog into the office building—yes, the scary indoors. He may have been unsure, but he did it anyway, and handled it well.Paul is looking for a patient, understanding adopter who will let him warm up at his own pace and celebrate the small wins along the way. If you’re the kind of person who finds joy in earning a shy dog’s trust, Paul might just be your perfect match.
