Story
Autumn is a delightful one-year-old pit mix with a dash of dachshund charm, weighing in at a cuddly 30 pounds. This sweet little ball of energy is full of life and loves to play! She has a playful spirit and enjoys romping around, but her favorite pastime is snuggling up with her humans for some quality cuddle time. Autumn gets along with some dogs, though she can be a bit particular about her canine friends. However, her love for people knows no bounds-she adores everyone she meets! She's spayed, up to date on her vaccinations (rabies, distemper, and Bordetella), and heartworm negative, making her a healthy and happy companion ready for her forever home. If you're looking for a playful and affectionate friend, Autumn is eager to fill your days with joy and love!

Story
Luther is a three-year-old dog, known for his sweet and loving nature, who thrives on attention. He is house-trained and comfortable around children. Luther is motivated by both food and toys. However, there are some challenges: he dislikes nail trims, exhibits resource guarding (food and toys) around other dogs, has limited socialization due to walking restrictions, and tends to jump on people. He requires an adopter who can provide love and attention, and who's physically capable of walking a 75lb dog. Unfortunately, due to our circumstances, he has not been walked since an incident. We are seeking a responsible individual who can offer him a stable, loving, and safe environment, as our current situation, including two children with autism and behavioral challenges, is no longer sustainable for him. We are committed to finding him the best possible home, and a shelter placement is not a viable option. We are looking for someone dedicated to providing Luther with the life he deserves.

Story
Do you like a bold, extroverted, assertive lady boss? A name like ATHENA can only befit a goddess, so get ready to worship this darling deity! Athena is a social butterfly who is popular among staff, volunteers and play group dogs. Knowing she fits in easily with a lot of different crowds, a dog walker took her home for a weekend to give her a break from shelter life. This is what she reported back: I took home Athena for a shelter break because I knew I only had a couple days and my experiences as a dog walker told me she was capable of making the most of a short time and could hit the ground running. I was right about that! There is no stranger danger with Athena, she loves anyone and everyone. She already knew me but grew extremely fond of my husband who knows just how to spoil a queen. 👸🏻 She was careful to share her attention and affection equally among the two of us. When we weren’t together she’d spend time with one of us and after a while go seek out the other for some cuddles. It was very charming. ☺️ I also had a feeling she could be a match with my shy, submissive 10 year old beagle mix. Her and Athena got along famously. While Athena likes to romp and wrestle in playgroup, she was very gracious with my senior gal and respected her cues when it was time to back off. We separate for feeding but Athena had no trouble letting me give treats and attention to both girls simultaneously. During the day she was my telework buddy and also helped me around the house. She watched politely and intently while I cooked and supervised while I tidied up and hung some pictures. She is crate trained and slept beautifully through the nights but she comes out hot in the morning! She can be jumpy and mouthy when excited but is easily distracted if you toss a stuffie at her. Athena is first and foremost though a leader. And while she did not chase my cats, her attempts to boss them around went over like a lead balloon with my clowder. Athena ignored my two less social cats but wasn’t a match for my two assertive ones who are not ready to share my lap just yet. Athena is recommended for a home with adults only or older kids because of her boisterous personality and probably would do best without cats. She loves making doggie friends but if you already have a dominant dog Athena may struggle to find her place. She loves to be in charge and takes it very seriously. She is extremely well socialized with people, loves to be out in public and is up for pretty much anything. She is ideal for a home looking for a young, exuberant dog to be the life of the party. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
