Story
Meet Caroline, an 8-year-old Staffy mix who recently found her way back into our care—through no fault of her own. When she arrived, she wasn’t in the best shape and needed some medical attention for her skin. After nearly a month of treatment, she’s feeling (and looking!) so much better, and her happy, spunky personality is shining through again! Don’t let her age fool you—Caroline still has plenty of pep in her step! She’s a total people-lover who adores attention, belly rubs, and all the pets she can get. Caroline prefers to be the queen of her castle, so she’ll need to be the only dog in the home—but trust us, she has more than enough love to go around. She can be strong on a leash, so she’ll do best with someone who can confidently handle her on walks. Caroline’s been let down before, and we’re determined to help her find the forever family she’s always deserved—a family ready to give her all the love, care, and cuddles she’s missed out on. Could Caroline be the one for you?

Story
Say hello to Lumi! This 2.5-year-old Staffy mix was recently surrendered back to us and now finds herself looking for a new forever home. Lumi is a bundle of joy, full of bounce and goofiness that’s guaranteed to make you smile. Lumi loves people and greets everyone like a new best friend. She’s also shown she can get along well with other dogs and may be a great match for a canine sibling, given the right fit. Lumi has tested positive for heartworm, but don’t worry—we’ve already started her treatment and will continue to cover the cost even after adoption. Lumi is close to be finished with treatment though! She deserves the chance to live a happy, healthy life in a loving home. If you’re looking for a sweet, playful companion ready for a fresh start, Lumi just might be the one for you.

Story
Meet Darla, a 2-year-old Staffy mix with a huge heart and an even bigger love for belly rubs! This sweet girl is all about affection—she’s friendly with everyone she meets and truly believes she’s a lap dog, no matter her size. Darla is currently polishing up her manners and can get a little jumpy when she’s excited, so we recommend sturdy kids who won’t mind her enthusiastic greetings. With a bit of consistency and guidance, she’ll continue blossoming into the well-mannered companion she’s meant to be. Her previous shelter shared that Darla did well with a male dog, though she hasn’t been tested with females yet. If you’re searching for a lovable, happy, attention-loving pup who wants nothing more than to be your snuggle buddy, Darla is ready—and eager—to meet you!

Story
Bambino is a large-size 2-year-old American Staffordshire terrier mix who weighs 82 pounds. Bambino has lots of young pup energy to spare and is very treat and toy-motivated. Lots of positive reinforcement and consistency has helped with keeping him focused and his mind sharp. Bambino would greatly benefit from an adopter that has an active lifestyle or a fenced yard. Bambino can live in a home with other dogs, but will require older children as he can be pretty jumpy during play and is currently working on keeping all four paws on the floor. He was tested for heartworms and Lyme and was negative for both. Bambino is neutered, microchipped, vaccinated, and ready to go home.

Story
Meet Jax! This 5½-year-old, 56 lb pup is the total package—smart, playful, and full of personality. He listens well, knows a few tricks, and loves nothing more than a good game of fetch with his favorite ball. Jax walks nicely on leash, keeps his kennel clean, and has a fun, spunky side that will keep you smiling. He also gets along great with other dogs, but will require a home with no cats. He’s already been tested negative for heartworms and Lyme disease, and he’s neutered, microchipped, vaccinated, and ready to go home. Jax has been waiting since March 2024 for his forever family—could it be you?

With her sweet-as-pie personality and sunny spirit, Belly is the kind of dog who makes life feel brighter and more beautiful, just like summer itself.

Story
Clawdeen is a 2-year-old Boxer mix with a sweet, gentle spirit and the softest eyes you’ll ever see. She may be new to the shelter, but she’s already winning hearts with her calm nature and eagerness to please. This smart girl knows how to sit and give paw, and she loves showing off her manners. We’re still getting to know her, but so far Clawdeen seems to be dog reactive, so she may do best as the only dog in the home while she continues to build confidence. One thing we do know? Clawdeen is a kind-hearted pup who just wants someone to love her back.
