Oversized teddy bear seeks snuggle partner. Cuddly, smart, and eager to please, swipe right if you can handle this high energy heart with a soft side. Hatchi’s story is heartbreaking — he came into the shelter with his brother, but when their owner returned, they only took his brother… leaving Hatchi behind in a high-kill shelter. He soon found himself on the euthanasia list. Hatchi is now in a loving foster home and is looking for his forever home where he can feel safe, loved, and supported again. Hatchi does require eye drops daily for the remainder of his life. In our dream world, Hatchi would find a human that would help him feel confident and secure in a FINALLY stable environment.

Hi there, I'm Tahoe! My days are full of fun, wagging my tail and exploring my surroundings. I'm a bit of a goofball, often tripping over my own paws in my excitement. I'm known for my sweet nature and playful spirit. I can make anyone laugh with my funny antics, like chasing my own tail or tilting my head in confusion at new sounds. I'm a friendly pup, always ready to give and receive love. I may be young, but I have a lot of love to give. If you're looking for a loyal companion who will fill your life with laughter and joy, I'm your guy! I live to say hi to people. I am fixed, chipped and vaccinated.

Hi, I'm Hyatt, a lively little guy with a heart full of joy! I'm a puppy, but I've got big dreams. Dreams of chasing squirrels in a backyard, of belly rubs and endless games of fetch. I'm known for my goofy antics that keep everyone laughing, and my sweet nature that makes it hard not to fall in love with me. I'm a cuddle bug too, always ready for a snuggle session after a day of play. I promise to fill your life with laughter, love, and puppy kisses. Why should you adopt me? Well, I believe every home needs a little goofiness, a little sweetness, and a whole lot of love. That's me, Hyatt! I am fixed, chipped and vaccinated!

Solstice was adopted at two months old. After two years, they decided she wasn’t a good fit, and returned her. Solstice was returned skittish and afraid of strangers, but loving once she knows you. She is looking for a very special family that will help boost her confidence and provide her with socialization. She is an active, middle ages dog. She loves fetch, swimming, and LOVES hiking. She is highly intelligent, vocal, and chill indoors. Her foster family reports that she is potty trained and became extremely warm and affectionate after a few days of patience. She is a little “shadow” and loves to be with her foster parents. She is an “alpha” female and looking for an experienced home with no small pets or kids.
