Story
Meet Ryker! We'e known Ryker since he arrived at the local shelter in Spring 2024. We brought him along with us when we separated from the partnered shelter the following Fall because we couldn't imagine leaving such a special boy behind. Ryker came into the shelter just hardly out of puppyhood, and he had a really hard time growing up in the small, loud kennels with never enough help for regular enrichment. He had so much pent-up energy and just didn’t know what to do with it all, which unfortunately led to him being "at-risk" for euthanasia when the shelter ran out of space for incoming dogs. Luckily, Ryker's current foster came along and literally saved his life. He finally had the chance to decompress and has learned so much while in foster care! Ryker's foster describes him as “a chill guy who just wants to chill on the couch with you.” But Ryker's the best of both worlds, as he LOVES some rough'n'rowdy play when the time comes! Ryker has also been working with a trainer to unlearn some of his bad puppy manners that developed from a lack of early socialization. With consistency, he has shown a real eagerness to learn and please his human friends. All he needs now is a forever parent to help him keep that wonderful momentum going! The best part? Ryker is crate trained, leash trained, dog friendly with dogs that can match or appreciate his energy, and LOVES to be the center of attention. If Ryker sounds like the right match for you, we would LOVE to introduce you to this very special boy!

Story
Some of yall may remember Cookie Dough from way back in January when we pulled her from the shelter after she was listed as “at-risk”. She's still with us and has been thriving in foster care ever since! Now, she’s ready to find her forever home. 💛 Her foster says: “Cookie is a drop of sweetness with a dash of spice... there's never a dull moment! She’s got a bold, curious personality and loves to explore the world nose-first. But Cookie’s not all go-go-go, she LOVES her chill time too. A good chew toy, belly rubs, and a cozy lap are her idea of heaven. She’s affectionate, snuggly, and loves her people fiercely. Sure, she’s got her quirks... who doesn't? Cookie Dough knows what she likes (and doesn’t!). She’s been a joy to have in foster care. I know that when she bonds with someone, she’ll be their ride-or-die for life.” 🥰 Quick Facts about Cookie Dough - 🍪 Crate & potty trained 🍪 Dog-friendly on her terms — prefers male dogs her size who know when to play vs. chill 🍪 Not good with small dogs or cats 🍪 Walks great on leash, sits on command (especially for treats!) 🍪 Total Girl’s Girl 💅 — not a fan of men; needs a women-only home at this time 🍪 Best in a home without young kids 🍪 Spayed, vaccinated, heartworm negative, and microchipped Cookie Dough is currently our 2nd longest resident. We know her needs are specific, but we do believe there’s a perfect home for her out there somewhere. 🫂

Story
☀️ Meet Ellie ☀️ Ellie is an approximately 5-year-old sweetheart who’s been with us for quite some time (one of our longest stays) and she’s so ready to finally find her forever family! 💕 This gentle girls past is a bit of a mystery, but the C-section-like scar on her belly suggests she’s been through some tough times. Despite it all, Ellie’s heart is pure gold as she adores people, children, and every ounce of attention she can get. She’s learned how to play (hard chew toys are her favorite!), but her true passion is lounging! Whether it’s soaking up the sun or snuggling on the couch right next to you. Ellie is house trained, kennel trained, and would do best as the only dog in the home while she continues building confidence. With a little patience and a lot of love, she’ll reward you with endless affection and tail wags. 🐶💛

Story
Bella is one of the smartest dogs I’ve rescued—a ball of love, energy, & personality- would thrive as the only pet- prefers not to share her hoomans & we currently have 4 other dogs & 4 cats. She had a ruff start—found roaming, not chipped & never claimed. We fostered, then adopted her, but our home has proven to be more than I can realistically manage for her needs. Bella will truly shine with 1 on 1 attention from someone committed to working with her. She loves walks, car rides & adventures & is incredibly food-motivated & eager to learn & adores hoomans! Her FAV favorite thing in the world + treats! This past year, she’s been through a lot—adjusting to a new environment, undergoing spay surgery shortly after arrival & completing fast treatment for heartworm (caught very early). She has recovered beautifully and is doing great, can coexist & play with other dogs but needs work on reactivity & leash work. She will thrive with structure & dedication! This loyal girls wants to love you
