Story
Ace is a very lovable dog and it is killing me to have to do this, but we have 3 cats and he is like a bull in a china shop chasing them in the house. (My cats are inside only) He has cornered them 3 different times and he never hurts them, just nuzzles them, but he scares them to death. If we didn't already have the cats, I would not have to be doing this. Ace needs a fenced in yard to run in, but he wants to stay inside with his person. I want him to go to somebody that will keep him inside and love him to pieces. He has never had an accident in the house, loves to play with stuffed toys, especially those with squeakers, He will come with his huge crate which he sleeps in at night and his toys. He will be two years old in November and still has a lot of puppy in him. He knows how to sit, lay down and shake hands.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.  Poor Birdie was found in a rural area heavily pregnant.  She gave birth to six little puppies and was a good mom to them, but the pups have found homes and she is still waiting for her forever home.  After she was spayed, she apparently had a stroke and could not walk.  With loving care and multiple laser therapy treatments, she is almost back to normal.  She is a good natured goof ball with a short wheel base.  Definitely a shelter favorite!  Birdie is now available for adoption to a good and loving home. If you have a lot of love to share with a best friend please adopt one of our wonderful pets.
