Brooke is the total package: loving, loyal, and ready for her forever home! At 8 years young, she’s a calm, mature companion who adores spending time with her humans. She loves people of all ages and always appreciates being included! When relaxing at home, Brooke will be right there by your side—probably snoozing with a big smile on her face.But don’t let her laid-back nature fool you—Brooke lives for her walks! Exploring the neighborhood and strutting her stuff is the highlight of her day. She’s also happy to get out for little adventures and playtime, making her the perfect mix of couch potato and active buddy. We also think she`d be perfectly content being an only dog.Brooke is currently on a weight-loss journey and has already shed 10 pounds with healthy food, daily thyroid meds (budget-friendly and simple!), and regular walks—go Brooke! Her goal is to reach closer to a fit and fabulous 60 pounds, and she’s well on her way.If you`re looking for a best friend who’s equal parts cuddle bug and walking partner, Brooke might just be your girl.

Story
Katie came to rescue with blood in her urine and a whole lot of unknowns… and what we found could have broken her story before it even began. She had a very rare bladder tumor. And then she did the bravest thing of all - she beat it. ✨ The tumor was completely removed by specialty surgeons ✨ Pathology showed it was slow-growing ✨ She does NOT have aggressive bladder cancer ✨ She is now healed, happy, and living her best life Katie also has a mild, early heart condition that’s beautifully managed with a simple daily medication - and she’s had zero fainting episodes since starting treatment. Today, Katie is: 🐾 Urinating normally 🐾 Pain free 🐾 Playful, affectionate & loving 🐾 Ready for her forever home She just needs: • Daily heart meds • A low-sodium dog food • Routine vet care • And someone who believes in second chances as much as she does Katie isn’t a “medical dog.” She is a miracle dog with a beautiful future ahead. Could that future be with you? 🧡

Story
Blaine is a handsome boy who came to our shelter as a stray and has been waiting for his chance to shine. While he is past his puppy years, what he offers is something even more special: A calm, well-balanced, and wise temperament that only comes with maturity. He’s the kind of dog who knows how to enjoy the simple things and truly appreciates companionship. Despite being incredibly sweet, Blaine is often overlooked, patiently watching others come and go while he waits for his person. He’s ready for a forever home where he can finally relax, feel safe, and rest his head knowing he’s home for good. If you’re looking for a loyal companion with a gentle heart and steady presence, Blaine could be the perfect match. Could you be the one to give this wonderful boy the loving forever home he so deeply deserves?

🐾 Meet Beignet! 🐾 This handsome 6-month-old brindle Pit Bull mix is ready to splash his way into your heart! With his stunning blue eyes and playful personality, Beignet is as charming as they come. We aren't sure what breed he is mixed with but he sure is beautiful. All of his littermates have been adopted and now it's Beignet's turn to find that perfect family! Beignet absolutely loves water — kiddie pools, sprinklers, you name it! He’s a fun-loving pup who would thrive in an active home that enjoys outdoor adventures. He’s currently learning to walk on a leash and doing great for his age. Beignet gets along wonderfully with other dogs and would love a canine buddy to play with. Cats are unknown, but he’s gentle and happy around children, making him a great family companion. If you’re looking for a loyal, energetic, and affectionate friend to join your adventures, Beignet is your guy! 💙 He is still in the puppy stage and will need someone to continue training basic commands. If you would like to add this boy to your family, please message us and we will send you an adoption application. Beignet is being fostered in MS but included in your adoption fee is transport to a location near you by Rescue Riders Pet Transport, the most animal friendly transport on the road! We look forward to hearing from you!
