Story
Meet Lou 💙Lou is an adult male Shih Tzu who is looking for a very special kind of home—one filled with patience, understanding, and gentle hearts. Lou is currently very unsure of people and finds the world a bit overwhelming, so he will need a calm, quiet environment and an adopter who truly understands that trust takes time.Lou isn’t the type to rush into new situations or relationships. He’ll do best with someone willing to move at his pace, give him space when he needs it, and celebrate the small victories as he learns that people can be kind and safe. With consistency, routine, and lots of gentle reassurance, Lou has the potential to blossom in the right home.If you’re someone who believes the most rewarding bonds are the ones you earn slowly—and you have the patience to let a shy dog come out of his shell—Lou may be the perfect companion for you. Sometimes the quiet ones just need someone willing to listen. 💕Adoption Hours are Thursday through Sunday from noon to 5pm. You do not need an appointment to come by and meet animals during adoption hours.

Good with dogs, House-trained,
Story
Mr Sundae was a recent intake after his mom was unable to care for him. Sundae is a bit under socialized with new people, however he is doing wonderful in his foster home. Sundae likes to play with other dogs his size and has a very silly, playful personality with his humans once he settles in and can trust. Sundae is excellent in the car for rides and seems house broken. He loves his crate as that is his safe space. Sunday is just 5 years old and weighs 15 lbs. We feel he would do best in a home with older kids, little ones may scare him. Sundae loves walks and playing anywhere, anytime. He's been so fun to hang out with.

Story
My name is Luna I was born in November of 2019 and my humans took me as their own in January of 2020.. once I was allowed to leave my dog mom of course. I do well with cats and think of them as my friends; however, I don’t do well with other dogs or small children. I am a nice dog and very lovable and kind. I am crate trained and sleep in my bed (crate) at night. My favorite thing to do is lay around on the couch with my humans and hang out and I love tug a war. My current humans recently had a baby and I haven’t adjusted well. I’ve not bitten the baby or anyone but I have been unhappy and irritable around the baby. My ideal owners will be with no other dogs or small children under the age of 10. I’m very sociable and love to be front and center of all the attention. I have all my shots and my adoptions fee comes with my crate, toys, and dog food. Please message my human if you are interested.
