Story
If you’re looking for a dog who’s equal parts sweetheart and sidekick, Benton might just be your perfect match. This handsome boy is the definition of a cuddle bug — he believes the best place to be is right next to you (or, let’s be honest, on top of you). He’s a total bed hog who loves to burrow in for naps, so make sure you’re okay with sharing your pillows — Benton certainly is!Beyond his love for snuggles, Benton is a fun-loving adventurer. He’s always ready to hop in the car for a ride and adores sticking his nose out the window to feel the breeze. Bath time? No problem — Benton actually enjoys it! And if you have a boat, he’ll happily join your crew. There’s nothing this boy loves more than being part of whatever his people are doing, whether it’s a road trip, a lazy Sunday, or a day on the water. He’s also a great running buddy — keeping pace by your side and reminding you that exercise is more fun with a wagging tail next to you.Benton is also a devoted and protective companion. He loves his family deeply and takes pride in keeping his home safe. While he’s friendly with people, he can be protective of his property and loved ones, so he’ll do best with someone who understands that a little loyalty sometimes comes with a watchful side. He’s not aggressive — just a dog who truly wants to make sure his people are cared for.Right now, Benton is living his best life in a loving foster home where he’s showing everyone just how wonderful he is. His foster family says he’s affectionate, well-mannered, and always up for a good game of tug or a long snuggle session on the couch.If you’ve been searching for a dog who will make you laugh, keep you company, join you on adventures, and make your house feel like a home, Benton is your guy. He’s ready to meet you, steal your heart, and claim his spot by your side (and maybe on your pillow).So grab a leash, a tug toy, and a pillow — and come meet this beautiful boy. Benton can’t wait to find his forever family!Benton's adoption fee is $0 thanks to a donation!

Story
Meet Monk—a 6-year-old brindle bundle of energy with a soft spot for squeaky stuffies and a heart full of second chances. This handsome boy came to us as an owner surrender, and not long after arrival, we discovered he was heartworm positive. But Monk took it like a champ. After months of treatment and rest, Monk is now officially heartworm-free and ready to start his next chapter.Monk doesn’t just love his stuffies—he needs them. He carries them around the yard like prized possessions, and having one in his mouth on walks actually helps him slow down, take a breath, and enjoy the world around him. With a toy by his side, Monk takes time to feel the breeze and smell the flowers—he’s a little poetic like that.He’s also a total cuddlebug. Whether he’s snuggled up on the couch or leaning in for pets, Monk loves a good cuddle session with his favorite people.Monk is great with kids and does well with calm, well-rounded dogs who respect his energy. He’d thrive in a home that gives him the time, structure, and squeaky friends he needs to feel safe and loved.Monk's adoption fee is $125, which helps support their medical care and preparation for adoptionPlease note: All of our animals are spayed/neutered and up to date on age-appropriate vaccinations. Each pet also receives a behavioral assessment to help us better understand the type of home they may thrive in.

Chance has spent his entire life growing up in the shelter—waiting, hoping, dreaming of a home where he can finally be someone’s baby. This handsome boy isn’t just looking for a roof over his head; he’s searching for a family who truly understands him—someone ready to give him the love, patience, and guidance he deserves.Chance is a bundle of energy and enthusiasm, especially when it comes to playing fetch. Throw a ball, stick, or toy, and Chance will chase it with endless joy—sometimes for hours on end. If you have a ball, he’s all ears. Say the magic word “ready” and he’ll happily drop it right at your feet, eager for the next toss. He’s a playful spirit at heart who thrives when given the chance to engage and have fun.That said, Chance does have some important needs. He resource guards and is learning every day that no one will take his food from him, and isn’t comfortable around other animals or children, so his perfect home would be one where he can be the center of attention. This is a dog who needs someone who understands that with structure, trust, and time, Chance can truly shine.He may have grown up in the shelter, but Chance’s heart is full of hope and loyalty. He’s ready to leave the shelter life behind and step into a future filled with fetch sessions, quiet moments, and unconditional love.Are you ready to give Chance the chance he’s been waiting for?

He’s looking for a family that will appreciate his energetic, playful nature while giving him the space to feel safe and at home.Rocky Road isn’t just looking for a house—he’s looking for a forever home where he can truly be himself.
