Story

My daughter passed away so Elmo needs a new home. Elmo is a very sweet dog and has been my daughter's constant companion since his birth. He is 10.5 yrs old. For the last 2 years he has been staying with my daughter, either on the bed, in the covers (he like to be under things) or under her bed. He likes to play with his sister, my 12 yr old granddaughter, loves to go on walks and loves to walk on extended leash while she is riding herscooter. Elmo is strong and in good health and does not have any arthritic issues. He can do stairs (rather rapidly sometimes) does well on hardwood floors (nails cut) He likes to have his special toys. He does like to feel sheltered and loves a closed space available to him such as under a bed (daughter has a tall framed bed he goes under with his pad) he would love a crate (supplied) with a blanket over it like a tent. He seems to feel very comfortable doing that with the door open, kind of like a dog house in the house. Very sweet boy!

Story

Meet Duke – A Big-Hearted Boy Looking for a Fresh Start Duke is a 5-year-old, 64-pound American Staffordshire mix who’s neutered, microchipped, and up to date on vaccinations. Since being found in a park in October 2023, Duke has come a long way—he’s affectionate, smart, and full of personality. He loves cuddles, sunbathing, chasing birds, and chewing on toys or cardboard boxes. He’s also a foodie, with favorites like watermelon, apple, bell pepper, and the occasional french fry.He knows many commands (sit, down, heel, stay, speak, and more) and graduated from a board & train program where he learned great leash manners and impulse control.Duke does have some medical and behavioral needs. He has allergies (both food and environmental), a repaired leg (TPLO surgery in 2024), and a congenital soft palate defect. He’s reactive to motorcycles and has shown occasional redirected aggression, so he walks with a muzzle for safety. He needs an experienced, adult-only home that can provide structure and ongoing training.Despite his challenges, Duke is incredibly loving, goofy, and loyal. He bonds deeply with his people and will thrive in the right home—one that understands him and is ready to give him a second chance.If you’re experienced with reactive dogs and looking for a sweet, quirky companion, Duke may be the one for you.April 17, 2025, 10:18 pm

With patience and consistent training, Copper is showing that he can be a loving, loyal, and well-behaved companion in the right environment.Copper is looking for a patient owner who can provide structure and help him become the best version of himself.

Meet Molly! She has been waiting for a forever home since November 2022! Molly is a sweet, spunky girl with a heart as big as her smile.

She’s gone on hikes, runs, and multi-hour strolls, and she keeps up like a champ!Molly is incredibly well-behaved in the house. She’s crate trained, housebroken, and respectful — no chewed shoes or mystery puddles here. She's also a great sleeper, curling up in her dog bed all night in her humans’ room without a peep.Molly is very food motivated (she’s never missed a meal!) and enjoys toys, bath time, and being part of the family routine. She’s strong on leash but doesn't pull. She can pass by other calm dogs just fine, but she may react if another dog is reactive, so she’ll need an experienced owner who can read her cues and continue her training.If you're looking for a loyal companion who's full of love, ready for adventures, and happiest curled up beside you, Molly might just be your girl.May 13, 2025, 6:37 pm
