Hi, I’m Jax. I enjoy being around people and thrive on social interaction. I can be a little reserved at first, but once I warm up, my friendly and playful nature really shines through. With some training and a structured environment, I could become an even more confident and well-behaved companion. Adopting me means bringing home a loyal friend who is eager to learn and ready to fill your life with joy and activity.

Story

Jaxson is a friendly, people-loving dog who’s always ready for whatever the day brings. Whether it’s a walk, a car ride, or just hanging out with his favorite humans, he’s all in. He recently went on a Daycation and absolutely crushed it, showing off his fun-loving personality and eagerness to explore. He’s also a total star in the office at the shelter — a very good boy who loves being part of what goes on in the office. He’s still learning how to navigate dog-to-dog interactions and can get a bit overexcited, but that’s part of his charm. With structure, guidance, and positive training, he’ll channel that big energy into being a loyal, loving companion. Jaxson would thrive in most homes looking for someone who`s into the homebody lifestyle. If you’re looking for a smart, spirited training partner who will reward your effort with endless affection and enthusiasm, Jaxson might just be your perfect match!Jaxson is quite the star - he has so many videos and photos! Scroll down to the end to check them all out!I went on a Daycation recently and I got all A`s in the car, in the house, and on walks. I also hang out in the office at the shelter because sometimes I find the kennels a little stressful and my friends say that I`m perfect in the office too. Here`s a video of how well I walk on my gentle leader (the thing on my head-it`s kind of like a halter for a horse): Bein` a goob in the office:

Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Hi, I’m Clove — a young boy with a gentle heart and a story that’s made me a little cautious. I came into care with some injuries, but thanks to lots of love and healing, I’m feeling so much better now. Because of everything I’ve been through, I can be slow to trust new people, but I’m learning every day that the world isn’t so scary. With patience and kindness, my sweet and friendly side really starts to shine. I’ve been making great progress with my social skills, and I’d love a home that can keep helping me grow at my own pace. I’ve even shown interest in other dogs when I see them on walks, so I might enjoy a calm canine friend, too. If you’re looking for a loving companion who just needs a little understanding to blossom, I’m ready to take those steps with you.

Story

Hi, I’m Princess. I’m a senior dog with a heart full of love. I can be a little shy at first and it may take a moment to get to know new friends, but I soon show my sweet, friendly nature. I enjoy playful moments and love brightening the day with my gentle charm. I am looking for a forever home where I can share my affection and companionship. I may need a little guidance adjusting to indoor life, since I came from an outdoor-only home, but my gentle nature makes me a delightful companion. Adopting me means giving me a loving home where I can thrive and share my affectionate spirit.

Parmi

American Pit Bull Terrier Labrador Retriever

Male, Young

Size

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

Details

Needs special attention, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

We acquired Parmi from a shelter exactly 2 weeks ago. They told us he's around 1 year 7 months. He's the sweetest boy. He adapted to our home very quickly, hasn't had a single accident inside and gotten used to our routine flawlessly. Unfortunately, we discovered that my wife is allergic and we cannot keep him. A few things that you need to know about Parmi before choosing to take him in: • He is currently on 2 anti anxiety medications that he needs to be weened off of once he has fully adjusted to your home. We've tried it once prematurely and he became high energy and antsy. This will require some patience. • His first visit to the vet uncovered 2 parasites and he is currently in the process of being dewormed. • He has a bald spot on his tail from a flea bite but it has started healing very well in a very short amount of time. • He is pretty mouthy and likes to play-bite a lot. • He's a fast learner. • He’s good in a car. Feel free to contact me for additional pictures/questions.
