Meet Millie – A Gentle Soul Ready for Her Forever Home 🐾 Millie came into our shelter as a stray on August 12, 2025, after being on the run for some time. Sadly, no one came to reclaim her, but now she’s patiently waiting for her Gotcha Day – the day she finds her forever family. We estimate Millie is around 2 years old. She came in with a painful ear infection, which has since been treated, and she's now on the mend. She is current on her vaccinations and so ready to begin her next happy chapter of life. Millie is incredibly sweet but can be shy when meeting new people. She’s looking for a calm, patient home that will give her the time and space she needs to feel safe and secure. She’ll need a gentle routine and someone who understands that trust is something she’ll build slowly—but once she bonds with you, her love is unconditional. High-value treats are the key to her heart and are great tools for helping her learn the ropes in a new environment. She’s not just looking for a home—she’s looking for a person/family to be her safe place and will help her settle in while feeling loved. This sweet and pretty girl deserves a family that sees her potential and is willing to give her the time she needs to shine. Could that be you? If you have a quiet home, a kind heart, and a little extra patience, Millie may be the perfect match for you. Come meet her and see if you’re meant to be her forever.

Meet Membrain! 🐾💛 This sweet boy came into the shelter as a stray on October 3, 2025, and sadly, no one ever came to reclaim him. But now he’s looking ahead to something better — his very own "gotcha day" and a forever home to call his own. Membrain is 1 year and 6 months old, neutered, and up to date on all his shots. Life hasn’t always been kind to him, but since coming into our care, his future is already looking brighter. His coat is growing back in, and he’s starting to feel as good on the outside as he does on the inside! He’s a happy, goofy guy with so much love and joy to share. He just needs a patient and caring owner who can give him the guidance and support he needs to settle into his new life. Could you be the one to give Membrain the fresh start he deserves? Come meet him today and see if you're the perfect match! 🐶💙

Story
"Hello, my name is Tank, and I am a big strong boy who is looking for my forever home. I am an adult dog around 4 years old, with so much love to share and I need to be the only pet in my new home. I am very friendly, athletic, and playful, and I love making new friends and getting lots of attention. I am loyal, loving, and smart, and I am always ready to learn and obey. I am also very handsome and have been told that I have quite the muscular build. I am housebroken, neutered, and up to date on all of my vaccinations. I would love to find a home where I can be the center of attention and enjoy lots of playtime and snuggles. Sometimes when I get too excited I can get a little jumpy and nippy...but in a playful way. If you think that you could give me the loving home I am searching for, please come to the shelter to meet me today! I can't wait to start my new life with you!"
