Story
Calling all large-breed dog lovers 🐾💙 Meet Willie — a big-hearted, big-boned puppy who is growing up beautifully in his foster home. We expect Willie to mature around 100 lbs, likely a mastiff mix, and he already carries himself with that classic gentle-giant potential. Willie has had the benefit of stability and structure in foster care, and it really shows. He’s not just cute — he’s impressive. ✨ Willie’s Great Attributes: • Crate trained • Sleeps through the night • Potty trained • Super smart and eager to learn • A great playmate — he approaches play respectfully with shoulders down • Loves his chewy toys (a big plus for a growing pup!) ⚠️ Things to Know / Continue Working On: Willie will do best with an experienced, confident owner who understands large breeds and puppy development. • Shows some borderline aggression • Guards food and resources • Needs continued work on impulse control Because of this, Willie will thrive in a home committed to training, structure, and consistency — the kind of home that sees potential, not just challenges. With the right guidance, Willie has everything it takes to become a loyal, solid companion. If you’re someone who loves large breeds, believes in training, and wants to help shape a puppy into the dog he’s meant to be, Willie could be your guy. 👉 Apply to adopt Mr. Willie here: https://www.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/SMS/Dog Big dog, big future, big heart — Willie is ready for his next chapter. 🖤🐶

Story
From Theo’s foster mom….. This little ray of sunshine is Theo. He had a rough start in life but hasn't let that stop him from spreading love. He loves kisses, cuddles, blankets, and gathering his toys in his own little area. He has quickly learned he is a fan of pup cups, bed time treats and learning how to play tug of war. He loves running and hopping in the snow like a bunny but will let you know when it’s too cold and he is not going outside. He knows how to sit and is good with other dogs and cats. He's still working on house training, but it's pad trained and crate trained. He likes to go into his crate on his own and takes naps or quietly plays with his toys. At night he sleeps in one of our rooms on the bed. He's a really good boy and listens well.

Story
How bout this, "❄️🐾 Posey: A Gorgeous Girl Searching for a Home Before Winter Gets Any Colder ❄️🐾 2 years old · 45 lbs · Fully Vetted Posey has now been waiting over 300 days — nearly an entire year — for someone to choose her. While other dogs come and go, Posey has watched season after season pass from the same kennel-style foster setting, still holding onto hope that her real family will find her. In all this time, she’s had only one single meet-and-greet. 💔 Now winter is settling in, and the chilly, stressful kennel environment is wearing her down. Posey is overwhelmed, anxious, and beginning to lose that spark she once had. What she needs more than anything is the warmth of a home, the comfort of a couch, and the steady presence of a person she can finally call her own. Because underneath the stress is a dog who is truly extraordinary. ✨ Goofy and theatrical — her expressive face can tell you exactly how she feels in a single look. ✨ Tender-hearted and affectionate — she leans in close and melts into anyone she trusts. ✨ Loyal once she bonds — she becomes your shadow, your snuggle buddy, your constant source of love. ✨ A winter cuddle professional — she thrives in cozy blankets, soft beds, and quiet nights at home. ✨ Full of personality — she can go from silly to soulful in seconds. Posey does have mild stranger danger — she may bark when meeting someone new. But she’s wonderfully predictable and incredibly food motivated: 🍪 Give her a few treats, a calm introduction, and a little patience, and she warms up quickly. Once she realizes you’re safe, she blossoms beautifully and bonds deeply. Her needs: 🐶 Dog-friendly with slow introductions 🐱 No cats 💗 Sensitive, loving, goofy, and expressive 🏡 Desperately needs a true home environment — not a kennel Posey isn’t just another dog waiting in rescue. She’s a gorgeous girl who has held on for more than 300 days, watching other dogs be chosen while she continues to wait. She deserves to spend this winter wrapped in warmth, comfort, and love — not in a stressful kennel."

Lilly is a good girl. She is deaf and requires more time and devotion than I have. Since my situation has changed from 2 in the house down to 1 and I work a lot. I hope someone out there has the time and patience for this girl.
