Story
Helloooo Ringooo!❤This 1 year old Staffordshire Terrier mix is such a people lover! He always wants attention from anyone he meets, and you will absolutely want to give him all the pets and cuddles. He is too cute!Ringo loves to spend his days here at HSSI playing will all the toys. If you give him a ball, he will be content for the entire day. He is still learning basic commands, mostly not to jump when he's gets too excited! He's getting there, but would definitely do best with a family willing to commit to puppy training.This bulldozer of a guy has been with us for 4 months too long and would love to finally be introduced to a home environment. He has spent most of his life on the streets and then in a shelter with staff who are not able to give him all the attention and affection that he truly deserves. Please help Ringo find a home!Ringo is up to date on all vaccinations, heartworm negative, and only in need of his rabies vaccine. Until he is neutered, he will be available for foster to adopt. He has been through soooo much in his short life and his biggest wish is to ring in the New Year with his new family!All animals must be spayed or neutered, microchipped, and fully vaccinated before finalizing adoption.

Story
Hi. My name is Thor. I was given this name when I was found on the side of the road. I was extremely hot, emaciated and weak. Luckily the lady who saw me got me into the care of Dr. Creese quickly, I'm not sure how much longer I could have held on. I was already passing out frequently. The first several days at SFC were kind of rough because I felt pretty crappy, but the vet techs helped me through all of it. I am all better now since I am in the nice cool building and getting fed every day. Now that I know how good life can be I would really like to find my new forever family and maybe even have a couch of my own to snuggle on.

Story
Nova is not just a name; but a testament to her resilience as the shining star of St. Francis! This 2-year-old female pit bull mix arrived at our shelter in August, a survivor of severe neglect. Despite her challenging past, Nova has emerged stronger, healthier, and ready to light up a new home with her playful energy.If you're a fan of fetch, Nova is the perfect playmate. Watching her chase after a ball with pure delight is not only heartwarming but also a reminder of the transformative power of love and care.This charming girl has mastered the art of taking treats with gentle precision. Nova's loving personality shines through in every interaction, making her not just a pet but a cherished family member waiting to be discovered.Nova is potty-trained, though we always remind those who adopt dogs who have spent time in shelters or may have dealt with neglect, that they may need a refresher course as shelter life is very different as they adjust to a new home and schedule.Nova has shown compatibility with dogs of similar size during her time at the shelter, however we always recommend a meet and greet as well as a home visit for potential adopters who already have other pets in the home. Each furry friend has their own unique personality, and we want to ensure a harmonious home for all.As you consider welcoming Nova into your home, remember that you're not just adopting a dog; you're providing a second chance for a beautiful soul who has triumphed over adversity.Please visit: Https://www.stfrancis-care.org/adopt for adoption information including the adoption application

Meet Beau.Beau is very shy and nervous until he warms up to you.Once he trusts you he is very sweet and playful. He is a cuddler and loves to snuggle up against your face. He will be your "shadow" once he gets acclimated.We believe he would be good with kids, dogs and cats and easily trained.He is trying his best to keep a clean kennel so he should easily potty train with some time and effort.Due to Beau's shyness he will require patience in the beginning but we guarantee he will be worth it.
