Story
In the shelter June Bug is a ball of excitement. We can see why people are hesitant to meet her. Once away from the hectic shelter environment, she shows off her perfection. She is great in the car. She has done well with dogs we`ve paired her with at the shelter. She’s so loving, respectful on her leash, loves to play and knows a few commands. With her energy level & ability to keep going, she would also make a wonderful hiking partner or running companion however she also knows when it’s time to settle. We haven`t seen her with cats but she`s done well with the kids who have met her at the shelter.

How cute is Baxter?! He is an active three month old puppy that does great with kids and other dogs! Baxter hails from Tazewell County and was wild liked by the staff there. When asked if we had room, we had a Foster Home that was eager to take on a pup that was so cute. He loves to play, get belly rubs, hand roll in the snow. He is working very hard on housebreaking! Baxter is looking for a forever family to call his own. Born July 2025)
