Story
Colin is callin’ to be loved! This two year old handsome silver, very submissive lab mix is not enjoying his stay at the shelter. He finds the noise and the commotion intimidating. Colin needs a boost of confidence that family life would surely bring. Upon introduction of another dog to the play area, Colin sprang to life so if you are considering a second dog Colin might be a great choice. He LOVED playing chase with his new canine companion. Once in a home even without another canine, he may just need time to decompress to show his livelier side. A patient adopter will be rewarded with a lifetime of love and loyalty! Who of you out there wants to come callin’ for Colin? Stop by and ask for him by name! By adopting me today you will save the life of two pets -- you'll save me and that will make room for the Shelter to rescue and save another pet.

Story
Meet Brennan! This beautiful brown eyed brindle boy really needs out of the shelter and into a loving home. Who knows what he has endured before finding his way to the shelter. His shy nature says that he as likely neglected or lived on his own for a while. Brennan relaxes once in the play yard and accepts affection from a loving hand. His easy going demeanor would work in many different households but he will need some extra patience as he settles into his new surroundings. He is very obedient and submissive and has a very gentle demeanor. We don’t know what his first three years of life have been like but we hope he can land a loving forever home with you and spend the rest of his days being pampered as a beloved member of the family. Brennan needs his chance to shine! Will you be the one holding the light? By adopting me today you will save the life of two pets -- you'll save me and that will make room for the Shelter to rescue and save another pet.
