Zorro or Zozo is a sweet boy that just wants love. He has been raised with his sister and is very close to her but could be a great friend on his own. He has been through basic obedience training and can walk on a lead. He has been socialized with other dogs at Doggy daycare since he was young. He is also a great watch dog when in the house or yard. We are looking to rehome him due to a change in our circumstances and not being able to give him the time and love he deserves.

Story
Sporty Spots is a very handsome Saint Bernard American Bulldog mix that weighs about 80 pounds! He absolutely loves people and loves to get attention and belly rubs! He will sit with his head in your lap getting all the head scratches for hours if you let him. He is a goofball and is sure to make you laugh and smile everyday.  Spots is a super friendly and outgoing dog. He is good with children that are aged 14 and over! He loves toys, and he also loves to play in water. He is the kind of dog that would love to play in the sprinklers and have his own little pool he can play in. He really loves to play with balls, he will chase them all day. Spots would do best in a home that has a backyard for him to run around in.  Spots does well with some dogs that are his size or larger. Spots will need to go to a home that has a strong handler and has owned large dogs before. So far, he has learned to sit, stay, and lay down.  Overall, Spots is an amazing dog that is waiting for his forever home. He is very loyal and very friendly with other people. He also is very protective of his home and loves to keep patrol of his yard! He loves toys and water and would make the perfect travel buddy!

Story
Duke is the kind of dog that thrives on structure—and for the right person, that’s exactly what makes him exceptional. If you like routine, consistency, and a dog that locks into a daily rhythm with you, Duke will feel like a perfect fit. Duke is a young American Bulldog mix, about 65 lbs, strong, athletic, and extremely trainable. He’s a dog who wants direction. Give him clear expectations and a consistent routine, and he settles into it quickly and confidently. He does great on a tie-out on a zip line where he has room to move but clear boundaries. That structure allows him to relax and stay balanced instead of getting overwhelmed. When Duke first arrived, he was placed in a standard wire crate to sleep at night—and he destroyed it. Not because he’s “bad,” but because he didn’t yet have structure, clarity, or the right setup. Once that changed, everything changed. Now he has a sturdy metal crate, and it’s become his favorite place. He even has a full routine: he barks to let you know he’s ready to go back in, you come over and unclip him from the tie-out, and he runs full speed straight into his crate, onto his fresh blanket (which he loves), settles in, and waits for his cookie. That’s Duke—give him a system, and he locks into it. He walks calmly on leash now, where he used to pull hard, and he transitions between activities without chaos. He’s very human-focused, eager to please, and responsive. With his person, he’s submissive and engaged. With other dogs, he can show some dominance with males, but he coexists well in a structured environment and hasn't had any issues with any of the dogs here outside of some occasional grandstanding that I easily shut down with just a verbal command even from a distance. Good fit: someone who enjoys routine, structure, and working with a dog who wants to learn and follow a system. Duke will reward that with consistency, loyalty, and a dog that truly “gets it.” Adoption process: All adoptions are completed prior to transport. Dogs are picked up at designated transport locations. If an adoption doesn’t work out (rare, but life happens), we always take our dogs back. Location: Oklahoma (available to approved out-of-state adopters via transport) Health: Fully vetted (spayed/neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, heartworm tested) Adoption fee: $450 (includes transport + vetting) Bonus: Each adoption includes a 30-minute phone consultation with a professional trainer Transport routes: WA, OR, ID, MT, UT, WY, CO, MN, WI, IA, IL, IN, OH, PA, MD, NY, NJ Think you might be a good fit?

Story
That face that you fell for is the happy-go-lucky heartthrob we call Charlie. He is the kind of dog that meets the world with a big ol’ smile and all the wiggle-wag one dog can physically create. He is a goofball with bouncy joy, the cutest charm, and some amazing cuddles. Charlie is estimated to be just over one-year-old, he weighs 50-pounds, and we think he is a bit of a lab/bulldog mix but truthfully we can’t say for sure given he is a rescue. The only test I could run showed he is 100% sunshine and sweetness. See for yourself then come back to read more- https://youtu.be/sQRj9YmGuG4 Charlie is a friendly boy that makes it hard not to fall for him immediately. After I spent the day with him I didn’t want him to go- I had fallen for him. He is instantly affectionate and melts into a puddle of belly rub seeking butter. If he doesn’t melt you will feel him lean into you for hugs, and he will even let you scoop him up for an extra sweet cuddle. This guy’s happy energy is contagious and that doesn’t stop with people, he is just as thrilled to make new dog friends as he is to be by your side. The afternoon we spent with Charlie we introduced him to a wide variety of dogs to get a feel for his play style and the types of dogs he enjoys most. It didn’t take long at all for us to be impressed with how friendly and welcoming he was. Even when other dogs came in a little hot or pushy, Charlie handled it with grace. With the right dog, an equally bouncy, playful dog, he showed us he loves a bit of bouncy, physical play but it isn’t his constant. He was comfortable enough to lay down beside brand-new dogs a sign of total trust. He’s the type who only joins in play when invited and isn’t going to push his way in as a third wheel or shut down the fun for them. He isn’t going to cause a stir but will always try to help keep the vibes tuned to fun-loving, calm joy. Charlie does need some leash work, he has the basics down and honestly I feel like I am betraying him to say such a thing because it didn’t bother me one bit. All I could see was a happy boy who was just so excited to explore the world! The more he gets to experience and enjoy the better he will be at pacing himself . That and some practice (and maybe a few treats to reward him for checking-in and walking by your side), he will learn quickly. He is a smart boy, eager to please, and already shows how well he responds when guided gently. He will bond fast and deep with his people. During the time we spent with him, the first person who interacted with him as his handler walked out of the yard, he stayed by the gate waiting- a loyal love bug through and through. Because of that devotion, he may miss you when you go at first, its natural, but with time and routine he will settle into knowing his favorite people always come home. Charlie would do best in a home with a yard and another playful, medium-energy dog to run and romp with. He could adjust to apartment living once his leash manners are polished as long as he gets plenty of playtime and adventures to meet his mental and physical needs. No cats for Charlie though, his eager friendliness does not vibe with cats. We all know cats- if you’re too eager they don’t care for you and that goes for dogs too. Charlie gets to focus his love and happiness towards people and dogs. If you’re looking for a happy, loving, goofy companion who’ll make every day so much better, Charlie’s your guy. One look into that glowing, goofy face and you’ll know -his boy was made to love you. Ready to welcome some sunshine into your life?

This is Goose. He is so sweet and cuddly. He will want to be with you all day. We are rehoming because we have moved in employee housing where he has no yard and needs more exercise and time. He could use some socializing. He is very anxious around people but quickly warms up. He is very anxious around other dogs, he hasnt had much interaction with other dogs. He could use more training on a leash. He is vaccinated, neutered, and very well potty trained. He has lived with cats and kids. He will truly be a great addition to the right family.
