Story
Meet Charlotte! This beautiful 4-year-old cutie is a playful, affectionate pup who’s ready to find her forever family or a foster. Weighing in at 50 pounds, she loves chasing after toys, soaking up the sun, and keeping an eye on the world from her favorite window perch. She needs a patient human who understands she takes a little time to warm up to strangers. Charlotte enjoys her daily walks and is happiest when she’s by your side, getting all the attention she deserves. She’s a smart girl, fully housetrained, and knows commands like place, sit, stay, and down. Charlotte is also a pro at using the doggy door! While she’s friendly and sweet, she would do best as the only dog in the home or a cat friendly home! Think Charlotte might be the perfect addition to your family?

Story
Meet Cheese, a delightful canine companion residing at our local shelter. Despite her shyness, Cheese is incredibly sweet and friendly, always eager to share her playful spirit. She may need a bit more attention due and tailored traning as we have noticed she does not respond to auditory signals like a typical dog, but this only makes her more special. Cheese is looking for a loving home where she can receive the gentle care she deserves. If you`re seeking a loyal friend who can bring joy and warmth to your life, consider giving Cheese the forever home she dreams of.

Story
I can't say enough good things about Buddy.  I wish I could keep him.  This poor boy was dumped off the side of a desolite highway in the mountains in the early morning hours along with his dog house.  A friend found him hiding in the bushes and brought him to our rescue.  When I first saw him, I thought "oh my, he's going to eat my dogs"...turns out that Buddy is one of the most sweetest dogs I've ever rescued.  He loves the other dogs and ESPECIALLY little puppies.  I have a bottle baby that he sleeps next to making sure no other dogs bother him.  He cleans him and loves on him.  I'm attaching a video of him along with two other little puppies we have.  Buddy is housetrained, crate trained and extremely obedient.  He also loves to cuddle next to me at night.  Buddy is now neutered, fully vaccinated (rabies included), received a dental and is microchipped and we just got back DNA on Buddy!  Buddy is 39% American Bully, 25% German Shepherd,  19% Pit Bull Terrier and 17% Siberian Husky.   Buddy's adoption fee is $450.  To fill out an application for Buddy, please visit www.greendogfoundation.org or for more information, please email us at greendogfoundation@gmail.comOctober 5, 2025, 4:08 pm

These two are a package deal—they’re best friends, roommates, and professional nappers. They are dog-friendly, human-friendly, and couch-friendly. They have been together since they were puppies!    These two love attention and would benefit in a home with a family that doesn’t have to leave the house too often. Pudge loves physical touch and loves sleeping with her humans. She enjoys playing with toys and will try to hog them all.  Chunk is the “main character” of the household and will booty bump any dog in his way of receiving attention.

The more we get to know Diesel, the more love this guy. He’s such a sweet guy and loves effortlessly. He thrives in the company of other dogs and listens well. When he is in his kennel, he is reserved but when outside he loves to greet volunteers and other dogs. He is working on getting some leash manners in and is young so has a lot of energy. Diesel would thrive in an active home, and one committed to continue with his training. He is almost 2 years old and weighs 78 pounds. If you’re looking for a sweet, young dog to welcome home, apply to adopt or foster Diesel on our website www.thelittlereddog.orgOctober 6, 2025, 2:52 pm
