Hi, I’m Archy! I’m a sweet young pup who’s a little shy, but with love and patience, I’ll come out of my shell. I LOVE compliments and being told what a Good Boy I am. I’m still learning to walk on a leash, but with practice, I’ll be a pro! I get along well with other dogs and cats, too. The shelter staff is still getting to know me but they say that I'm just a puppy that needs some extra love and structure.I’m ready to find my forever family—could it be you?

Story
Arlo and his litter mates were born in the Appalachia Mountains. They are American Bulldog mixes is our best guess. These pups are as sweet as sweet can be. They enjoy their play time in the yard and making friends in play group. They are actually heroes. They saved their mommas life as she was tied to a 50 pound log chain on the side of the mountain. Angel gave birth to 6 puppies. She had little to no food or water. She gave everything she had to keep her pups alive. She wouldn't have lasted much longer in the heat. The pups were about 4 weeks old when a couple of them followed another dog home down the mountain. The dog owner followed the pup back and found Angel and the rest of her pups. These pups are now healthy and wanting a family to call their own. They need a home with a fenced in yard; an invisible fence is not adequate. They are up to date on shots, rabies, neutered and microchipped. They have been started on heartworm prevention. Adoption fee is $313 which includes a lifetime microchip registration fee of $13. ##1566589##

Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Not good with kids, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Everyone meet Jasper! Jasper came to us after his owner could no longer take care of him, to no fault of his own. He was very scared and confused about his new environment. But now he is starting to warm up and is a good boy. He is happiest when he is outside! He loves to go on walks or simply hang out in the back yard! Since it has taken him a bit to warm up to us, slow introductions and multiple meet and greets would be best. He is a good dog but may need a calmer environment with a more experienced family. He would do best in a home with older (15+) or no children. He does struggle with going back into his kennel here at the shelter, so we think he would do best with a home where he has free range of the house or at least a room that he can hang out in while you're away. **Neutered, microchipped, heartworm negative, and up-to-date on vaccines & monthly prevention. Weighs about 50 lbs**

Story
Meet Miss Maggie, a gentle two-year-old girl with a heart that's slowly learning to trust. When she first arrived, Maggie was terrified. She wouldn't make eye contact, trembled when she tried to pet her, and hid under the office desk, unsure of the world around her. Her past has left some scars- she wasn't treated kindly by the humans who were supposed to love her. But even after being let down, Maggie still has so much love to give. Thankfully, Maggie didn't spend long at our facility before a wonderful foster stepped up and welcomed her into their home. And it didn't take long for the real Maggie to shine through! Within an hour, we received videos of her playing, being silly, and feeling relaxed with the other dog in the home. This is who Maggie really is- sweet, playful and full of joy when she feels safe. Maggie is looking for a forever home where she can continue to blossom, with people who will shower her with the love and kindness she deserves. If you have room in your heart for a timid but beautiful soul ready to embrace her second chance, Maggie could be the perfect addition to your family. Let's help her write the next chapter in her story- one filled with happiness and love!

Story
Ash’s story is one that tugs at every heartstring. This sweet Boxer mix was brought to FDHS as an injured stray, likely the victim of a car accident. When we first met him, his eyes were full of pain, but there was still a glimmer of hope. Shortly after being posted as a stray, Ash’s owner came forward, devastated. Life had taken a harsh turn, and after many tears, they made the heart-wrenching decision to surrender Ash so he could get the care he desperately needed.Ash was rushed to the vet, where we discovered he had a severely dislocated hip that required surgery. Without hesitation, we got him the help he needed, knowing that this sweet boy deserved every chance at recovery. Now, Ash is in the midst of healing and is beginning to take adoption applications to find his forever home. Despite everything he’s been through, Ash’s spirit hasn’t dimmed. He’s a younger dog who bonds deeply with his people, and all he wants is to be loved. Ash is gentle, sweet, and friendly with everyone he meets—dogs, cats, kids, you name it. He just needs a home where he can feel safe, loved, and start fresh.Ash has had a rough journey, but we know there’s a happy ending waiting for him. Could you be the one to give him the forever home he deserves? 💙
