Story
Meet Ranger! Ranger is a 5 year old pit bull mix and has been with us for about year. Ranger is one of our “special needs” dogs, he needs a home with lots of structure and love to help ease his anxiety. Ranger shows signs that he wasn’t socialized when he was younger so he definitely needs exposure to help him come out of his shell! Ranger is very playful and loving, he loves to play with stuffies with his human friends. Ranger is house trained and seems to be dog selective.

Story
Sammie is a tough girl who was not only discarded, but she ended up with stage 4 heartworm disease. The shelter she went to was going to euthanize her, but our rescue took her in and immediately sent her to the vet. Fluid was drained from her swollen abdomen several times during the 30 days that she was on antibiotics prior to the first heartworm treatment. She made it through that and the rest period, then she had her second heartworm treatment. She will be having more fluid drained again soon. Hopefully we will find out then that the treatment worked and if there was any permanent damage. We will update this bio more then.  Sammie is up to date on vaccinations, flea treated, wormed, lymes negative, and microchipped. She will be spayed after she has had time to get well from the heartworm treatment. She is housebroken, but because of her medications she has to urinate very frequently. She loves toys, being nosey, cuddling, and people. She tends to be an alpha and sometimes bullies other dogs. This could cause a fight depending on the other dogs attitude/demeanor (use your judgment and knowledge of your dog). Sammie only gets along with male dogs. She does not get along with female dogs or cats. No small children. Sammie is a spitfire and still has a lot of spunk left in her. Life has not treated her well, but now that she’s getting healthy, she’s ready to find a family and kick life’s butt. Let’s help her do that. If you think you can do that please complete an application.

Story
Kai is a big boy, but also a big sweetie. He was surrendered to us because his owners were in poor health and not able to care for him. He had no vetting prior to coming to us, but is now neutered, up to date on vaccinations, heartworm/lymes negative, flea treated, wormed, and microchipped. He is currently at a board and train facility learning manners and basic obedience. He seems to do well with most dogs in passing but is extremely dominant. He should be the only dog in the home. We do not yet know about cats. He would do best in a home with no children. Kai is a very large boy with a lot of energy. Continuing training will be a requirement of his adoption. Prior breed experience is also required.  **Applications will not be screened if they do not meet adoption requirements. **

Luke is the sweetest little guy you’ll ever meet. He came to us from a terrible home. He was underweight, dehydrated, and had serious skin issues when he arrived.

He seems to get along with other dogs but does need slow introductions. We don’t recommend a home with cats or small children. Luke will benefit from training. That is requirement of his adoption.

Achilles was surrendered to the rescue along with Athena. He is a sweet boy but is high energy. He came from a home with 2 other dogs. He was extremely dominant with them though. He is about 1-2 years old. He doesn’t mind most dogs in passing. He absolutely loves to play. He tends to be very dominant though so he would do best as the only dog in the home.  He does not care for cats. He would be best suited for a home with no children. Achilles is neutered and fully vetted. He is currently in training. He is a wonderful dog that will make a great companion for a family that is willing to give him a chance.

Story
Sweet Sparrow had been through a terrible ordeal when he came to us. He was attacked by another animal and had a very serious leg wound. He was also very thin so he may have been on his own for awhile. He was seen by a vet and his wounds are now healed. He is 4-5 years old, neutered, flea treated, heartworm/lymes negative, microchipped. Sparrow is a happy dog who loves to play. He does need to be an only pet though. He has a high energy level, so it is not recommended that he be around children. You must own your home and have a fenced in yard. Sparrow will bring many hours of fun and joy to anyone lucky enough to give him a loving home. **Applications will not be screened if they do not meet the listed requirements.**
