Story
I've had the pleasure of fostering Jackie for about a month now. She is one of the sweetest dogs you will ever meet. I had originally met her a few weeks earlier when I was fostering another dog and brought them in to meet a potential adopter. She had just come back from a dog day out and was super shy but I got her to come up to me and say hi and she gave me a hug and I said I would be fostering her next if she was still available. It took her a few days to start warming up to me and to take in her new environment but over time she's gotten more comfortable going outside and walking around in the yard. She has heartworm so I haven't really taken her on long walks or played with her much but you can tell once she's feeling better she's going to be a lot of fun. For now she gets lots of rest on the couch or in bed. She has no problem making herself at home once she's comfortable with you and her environment. She's full of love and will cuddle with you all day. She loves belly rubs. She knows her name and is very treat motivated. We taught her how to walk up and down stairs because that was new for her and she will go to the door when she needs to go potty. She gets lots of compliments on how cute she is and does well around strangers and other dogs even if they are barking at her. I can't wait for her to find her forever home and I know whoever that ends up being is going to love her as much as I do."

Story
🐾 Foster Feature: Sweet Mel 🐾 We’ve had the pleasure of fostering Mel a handful of times over the past few months when her primary foster has had work commitments — and every single time, she’s settled right back into our home like she never even left. 💛 Mel is such a sweet girl who LOVES to snuggle on the couch and soak up all the love. She enjoys spending time outside and has a favorite spot where she keeps watch and happily greets anyone walking by. 👀🐶 ✨ She’s fully potty trained and crate trained ✨ Sleeps peacefully through the night (crate or curled up at the end of the bed) ✨ Knows her morning routine like a pro — backyard potty time, then breakfast! ✨ Rides well in the car and loves gazing out the window at the world going by 🚗💨 Mel would thrive as the only pet in the home, as she’s still working on being less reactive to other dogs. But trust us — she’s all the dog you need when it comes to love, companionship, and snuggles. 🥰 If you’re looking for a loyal, loving, couch-cuddling companion, Mel just might be your perfect match! ❤️

Story
Ash is a big happy guy who is easy to love. He may be 8 years old, but you wouldn't know it. He loves to play with other dogs (he gets along great with my own dog and my fosters). He greets us enthusiastically every morning when we get up and every time we come home. On walks, he's a little pokey because there's always a lot to sniff. He plays hard with other dogs both in the house and in the yard, but he also likes to sunbathe in the yard. He's a big guy and his beautiful brindled coat improves a little every day. In our home, he's thriving, and he makes us feel well appreciated. He's well-mannered and housetrained.

Story
Meet Rock — or as his friends call him, Rocco. 🖤 Rock came to us as a puppy and thought he had found his forever home. Sadly, he was recently returned due to issues with the resident dog, and this transition has been heartbreaking for him. Since being back at the shelter, Rock has been completely shut down — scared, confused, and unsure of what’s next. But underneath that fear is a sweet, loyal boy who wants to trust again. The way to Rock’s heart? Snacks. Lots of snacks. And a patient, gentle hand to show him the world isn’t so scary. Rock would thrive in a calm, adult-only home where he can be the center of someone’s world — no other pets, no chaos — just love, consistency, and time. He needs someone willing to show him that not everyone will give up on him. We know there’s someone out there who will help him write a new, forever chapter.
