Story
Deja came from a lady who adopted her and then found out she could not have her where she lived. A Blue nose pitbull born in July 2020, 14 weeks when we got her. She is very playful and loves to cuddle on the couch with her humans. She wants to go where ever you do. She is potty trained, kennel trained, and knows some commands… sit, come, lay down… she doesn’t really bark, sometimes a couple barks to tell us someone is here. She is very treat motivated and is easy to train. Loves tug of war! Has always been great with kids, other dogs, and cats. She is about 80 pounds but thinks she’s 20 pounds so I always watch her around littles so she doesn’t knock them over on accident. Such a great and beautiful girl. We were busy b4 but now a new business has stretched us way thin. She’s always stuck in the kennel or by herself. I’m hoping to find someone who will give her the time she needs.

Story
Say hi to Figgy Pudding… aka “Figgy Piggy” and “Figlet”! Figgy is a professional toy hoarder. She patrols the yard like a slightly overweight mall cop making sure every toy is exactly where she left it: in her mouth. Or under her belly. Or buried in the couch cushions.She’s friendly with kids and big dogs only—small dogs and cats? Absolutely not. Figgy didn’t get this size by sharing snacks with pipsqueaks.Looking for a canine roommate with the personality of a diva, the body of a bean bag, and the soul of a squeaky-toy-slaying warrior?Figgy Pudding is here to roll into your life and steal your heart (and probably your dinner).More information?

Story
With eyes as golden as her name, Honey is a gentle soul who’s looking for a calm, patient home where she can truly feel safe and loved. Originally found as a stray, Honey has known the uncertainty of life on her own—but through it all, she’s remained respectful, thoughtful, and quietly affectionate.Honey spent a few months in a home where she got along well with a younger male dog, but struggled to bond with a dominant female dog. She’s shown she can be a wonderful companion with the right match and would likely do best as the only dog or with a calm, respectful canine friend. Honey has also shown some resource guarding around food, but she’s incredibly polite and will sit and wait patiently when asked—she just prefers her meals in peace and her space respected.Because of her sensitivity and desire for a low-stress environment, Honey is looking for a home without young children. She thrives in quiet moments, loves being outdoors, and walks beautifully on a leash. She already knows several commands, is muzzle trained, and is eager to please the people she trusts.Honey may not be the dog who leaps into your lap right away—but give her time, and you’ll discover a deeply loyal friend with a heart as golden as her eyes. She’s sweet, soulful, and so ready to find her forever.If you believe in second chances and the quiet magic of earning a dog’s trust, Honey will reward you with a love that’s deep, steady, and absolutely priceless.More information?

Story
Newt is the kind of dog who makes you feel like you’ve known him your whole life. He loves people and if he’s not the center of attention, prepare for a tantrum (just kidding). We don’t have proof, but we believe Newt’s owner dumped him. Our only question is…why? We think he’s WONDERFUL.Newt loves life. He’s a rowdy, attention-seeking dog who wants to be the life of the party. He’s energetic but not too obnoxious, though he does have a knack for parkour-ing around his kennel!Newt is open to doing meet and greets with kids and other dogs! He can be picky about male dogs, but we’re chalking this up to needing to be neutered.Do you need Newt in your life? He needs you.

Story
Ozzy is sending you all good vibes on these chilly fall days. If you’re looking for a lap warmer, he’s available!Here’s what we know about Ozzy:- He is approximately four years old.- He’s a lovebug! Happy and friendly.- He loves squeaky toys!- He has a small sore on his head but it’s being treated. - He can escape wired crates, fences, windows, and open doors.- Ozzy was at the pound a couple of times back in 2022 so we have an old picture of puppy Ozzy on file. We will add it to the comments! Ozzy needs a responsible adopter who will keep an eye on him. He might have some separation anxiety, or maybe he just has a wandering soul! If you’re interested in meeting him, let us know! He will need to meet any kids or dogs at home.

Story
Meet Loki, a big-hearted boy with the cutest chubby head you’ll ever see. 💔 In his kennel, Loki is sad and scared—he doesn’t understand why he’s here, and the noise of the shelter makes it hard for him to feel safe. But once he steps outside, he shines. With a ball in front of him and grass under his paws, his whole spirit lights up.Loki is gentle on a leash, loves to play fetch, and dreams of a quiet home where he can finally relax. He would do best without young children and in a calm environment with little foot traffic, where he can feel secure and loved.He’s not asking for much—just a safe place, patient people, and the chance to trade his shelter sadness for a life filled with peace, play, and love. 💙More information?
