Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Fill out an Adoption Application Are you seeking the goodest boy? Look no further, as his name is Saint and he is up for adoption. Rescue workers brought Saint in after finding him sleeping as a stray on a bench outside a remote house. They contacted his former owner and learned that he had abandoned Saint. His foster family lives near where rescuers found him. The foster family would love to adopt him, unfortunately their other male does not like him. Saint loves laying on the couch next to his person while watching tv. He lets out his extra energy by playing with toys or zooming around the yard. He can play with other dogs, or he can entertain himself. Although friendly to all people and children, he forms attachments to individuals. He knows sit, stay, up, down, lay down, no, come, leave it, crate and much more. Once you have him do something once or twice, it becomes second nature to him. He will chase a cat, but if you “say leave” it or “no” before the chase happens, he will leave them alone. This dog has everything to offer the perfect family. He is an easy trainable dog. His only downside is not having any people to ensure the best for this goodest boy. The current foster loves to talk about him, so feel free to ask questions.  Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.

Story
Babygirl has been my emotional support animal since I got her 12 years ago. Unfortunately my subsidiary housing management wont accept the paperwork necessary to keep her so they are threatening eviction if I dont get rid of her. It breaks my heart to have to let her go, but I have to choose between her or homelessness. She’s a really good, quiet, chill girl. She is 12 ( Senior) so sometimes she has accidents she is unable to control. She cannot jump on beds or anything like she used to so she mostly just lays in her soft little plush bed. She likes kibbles n bits mini bits and she will play with toys sometimes. She loves slim Jim’s as a snack. She loves people. She may not have very much time left on her hands but I would love for her to have a loving family or shelter to carry her through to the end.

Story
I am an Air Force Vet and first time dog owner, I found Duke at a local dog shelter. He was around 1 year old when I adopted him about a year ago. Duke is a veryyy friendly dog absolutely loves people and loves to cuddle he will lay down with you all day on the couch and not move if you let him. The reason I am looking to rehome is because I am a single guy and my schedule is really busy as a full time student and soccer coach and that means I have to leave Duke in a crate for the majority of the day and even when I am home I cant spend much time with him because of my school work. I feel Duke would do very well in a house with multiple people to give him attention and able to take him out to run around a be a young dog. Duke is very well trained he knows sit, down, crate, heel/tight, free, he is even trained on E-collar and will recall with the tone sound. Please feel free to ask any questions about him!
