Story
Meet Cognac, an adult bully mix with a heart as warm as his name! Known also as “Yak,” this handsome, energetic guy is a playful, people-loving companion who’s been well-loved in his previous home. He’s great with kids (ages 3+), friendly with other dogs on and off leash, and politely greets new people with a wagging tail and a hopeful lean in for pets. Cognac is smart, listens well, and already knows several cues like sit, come, stop, and no. He enjoys adventures, rides beautifully in the car, and can’t resist a good squeaky toy. At home, he’s relaxed when left alone, housetrained with a predictable schedule, and has no history of destruction. Bath time turns fun once he’s a little wet, he loves being brushed, and he’s been a model patient at the vet. Cognac lived in a quiet home and may enjoy a similar environment, but he’s full of energy and would thrive with an active adopter who can give him daily exercise, playtime, and attention. If you’re looking for a friendly, playful, kid- and dog-social buddy who rarely barks and adores being part of the action, Cognac is ready to be your new best friend!

Story
Meet Sadie! 💕 Sadie is a goofy, bouncy girl with a heart full of sunshine! 🌞 Her former family shared that she’s wonderful with children and already fully housebroken — what a smart pup! This sweet girl adores gentle chin scratches and loves going on leisurely walks where she can sniff and explore to her heart’s content. Sadie is a curious little adventurer who’s been working hard on her leash manners and loves to check in with her handler along the way. She knows her cues like “sit” and “down,” takes treats ever so gently, and greets everyone with her signature big, happy smile. 😄 When it’s time to relax, Sadie’s favorite thing is hopping up beside you on a bench to share some snuggles, kisses, and quiet moments watching the world go by. She also enjoys playing with stuffed animals and chew toys (especially her Kong!), and she’ll wag her tail with joy when she hears her nickname — “Little Girl.” 🐾 Sadie’s personality shines brightest when she’s around friends — she’s even been part of successful playgroups with other dogs at the shelter! Energetic, affectionate, and full of heart, Sadie is ready to bring endless love and laughter to her forever home. ❤️

Good with kids, Not good with dogs, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Coco is literally the sweetest dog on the earth. She's 9 years old and loves to be pet, she loves her toys and she loves people. Whenever someone comes over, she gives them a sniff and if they're good, she'll bring over her favorite toy to show them. Her birthday is (approximately) on 4/1 and it makes sense that she was born on or around April Fools Day because she is a nut. She's so fun and has lots of energy. She's good with "sit" and "stay" commands. She doesn't like thunder or fireworks. When I leave her sometimes I can hear her crying at the door but then she'll go to sleep. She isn't destructive and doesn't chew on shoes, furniture, etc. She's very healthy and very smart. She understands what you tell her and she listens well.

Story
Meet Pharoah — The King of Your Heart! Like a true ruler of the ancient sands, Pharoah carries himself with calm wisdom and gentle grace. This distinguished older gentleman doesn’t bark much—he believes a king speaks only when necessary. He rides like royalty in the car, sitting politely in the back with no fuss and no sickness. Pharoah is housebroken, crate trained, and knows his sit command—proof that even noble leaders have impeccable manners. He has a positive history with children and has done well with other dogs in both playgroups and buddy walks, walking calmly alongside canine companions and enjoying peaceful social time. He enjoys all kinds of toys, from squeaky treasures to plush royal riches. Vet visits, baths, and nail trims? He handles them like a pharaoh graciously accepting offerings from loyal subjects. If you’re searching for a loving companion with the heart of a king and the soul of an old friend, Pharoah is ready to rule your home—with kindness, cuddles, and quiet devotion

Details
Good with kids, Good with dogs, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Mac is a big-hearted, goofy cuddle bug who wants nothing more than to be part of the fun and close to his people. Friendly, affectionate, and great with kids—including those with higher needs—Mac thrives on attention and happily greets every new friend with tail wags and wiggles. He’s moderately active and playful but also loves to chill once the excitement settles, especially if he can curl up beside you. In the shelter, Mac has done well in play groups with other dogs and enjoys social time, though on leash he can get enthusiastic when he spots a potential canine friend and may pull or lurch out of eagerness to say hello. With a confident handler, he settles nicely. Mac enjoys brushing, adores peanut butter, and knows several commands (though “be quiet” might still be a work in progress). A sensitive guy, Mac can be nervous about baths, loud noises, and vet visits, but with treats and reassurance he bounces back quickly. Quirky and charming, he loves plush toys (which he proudly destroys), will gather soft “treasures” for his crate nest, and may try to join any good time he hears happening. Mac is housetrained, crate trained, good when left alone after a short bout of whining, and sleeps soundly once settled. This loving, fun, and wonderfully snuggly dog is ready to bring joy, laughter, and lots of cuddles to his future home.

Story
Enzo joined us when he was 9 weeks old after being abandoned by his previously family. He turned 4 years old in February and is housebroken and currently unaltered. He gets along well with his “sister” but not sure about other dogs. He is VERY strong and very protective of me. Due to his strength I am unable to handle him for walks. And due to his aggression with strangers, it’s difficult to get him out, including to the vet. He is a very loyal dog, he loves to cuddle and pretend he’s a lap dog!

Story
Meet Adonis — Your Future Cuddle Champion! Adonis is a sweet 9-year-old gentleman with the perfect mix of charm, calm, and just enough quirk to keep you smiling. This handsome boy is a certified couch potato who adores curling up beside his humans for long, cozy naps. If you’re looking for a low-key companion who loves to relax as much as you do, Adonis is your guy. When left alone, Adonis is quiet and well-mannered — no barking, whining, or destructive habits. His one weakness? Snacks! He’ll happily investigate counters, trash, or recycling in hopes of a tasty surprise, so a little management goes a long way. Otherwise, he’s respectful, house-trained, and content to snooze until you’re home again. On walks, Adonis is social and curious. He’s appropriately interested in other dogs and easy to redirect if needed. Squirrels are another story — they’re very exciting! But with guidance, he settles back into his stroll. Meeting new people is one of his favorite things; he may bounce with joy or try to jump up in greeting, but once the hellos are out of the way, he quickly settles and becomes a calm, loyal shadow at your feet. Adonis has little spurts of playful energy, but he’s primarily a mellow, affectionate buddy who just wants to be near his humans. He’ll make a wonderful companion for someone who appreciates a relaxed, loving dog with a gentle soul. If you’re ready for a devoted nap partner and a heart full of unconditional love, Adonis can’t wait to meet you!
