Story
Hank is a 4-year-old neutered male American Staffordshire Terrier and Lab mix with a huge heart. He’s a sweet, loving boy who bonds very closely to his person and just wants to be near you. He’s playful and fun, but once he gets his energy out, he’s happy to relax and cuddle. Hank is crate trained and used to an apartment setting. He does best with routine, love, and clear boundaries. He’s smart and eager to connect, and he truly thrives when he feels safe and understood. Hank would do best in a home that can give him consistency, patience, and lots of love. He may do best as the only pet so he can soak up all the attention. He’s a special boy who just needs the right person to give him the stable, loving home he deserves.

Story
I adopted her from the local pound. She was found in a field. No other information was known/given. The house I brought her home to was temporary but did have another person in the house, recently Sissy and I moved. She has anxiety from being left alone. She has soo much potential with more training than I can give. She would make a great family dog. I love more than anything but her health is the most important.

Good with kids, Good with dogs, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Ruby is a sweet, loyal, and affectionate dog looking for a home that can give him more time and attention than our growing family can provide. He loves being close to his people, enjoys walks, and tires out quickly. Once he does, he’s easygoing and relaxed. He shows zero dog reactivity on walks and is loose and wiggly around other dogs, though he may pull slightly at first. Ruby has lived with other dogs and has been friendly the vast majority of the time, but he would do best either as an only dog or in a home where dog interactions can be supervised. He previously lived with a child in a wheelchair and has shown he can be gentle and comfortable in that environment. This is a difficult decision, and we want the best possible fit for him.

Story
‼️‼️ADOPT OR FOSTER ME‼️‼️ Meet Jazzy! Jazzy's mommy passed away and she found herself at LMAS without her mom, home or siblings. Shelter life was very scary for her and she only shook and shivered in her kennel. The only relief she got was when volunteers came and took her for walks. Her story touched our hearts and people that knew her before her mom passed, said nothing but good things about her. So, we went and scooped her up! Jazzy is in a temporary foster home. She will need a more permanent foster or even adopter! She's still grieving, whining often, needing a place to rest and decompress with lots of love and attention. Jazzy is pretty shy at first but she warms up quickly and will shower you in kisses. She loves to follow you around and just be by your side. We have been told that she slept in bed with her previous owner so she's all about invading your personal space! Jazzy played well in group play with other dogs but will probably be better in a home that matches her energy level. She has just discovered cats. She's still trying to decide if she likes them or not but no aggressive behavior towards them. She's said to do well around children, although she didn't live with any. Jazzy is a year and a half old, spayed, vaccinated and microchipped! If you are interested in fostering or adopting this girl with the ears, fill out an application on our website!

Story
Looking to rehome my 2 year old brindle mastiff/bully mix. He is neutered, microchipped and up to date on shots. Crate trained, understands basic commands (although he is stubborn, sometimes.) and is food/treat motivated. He weighs about 80 pounds. This big guy is a lap dog. He would be content to sleep next to you all day. Winnie snores loudly and insists on gently nibbling to show affection. He is an aggressive chewer when it comes to toys. I know a Kong hates to see him coming. Loves children and is okay with other dogs. He is not aggressive towards cats but will chase them to try to ‘play’.

Story
Samantha “Sammy” is a sweet, spunky Staffordshire Terrier puppy with a heart as big as her adorable puppy paws. She can be a bit shy at first, but once she feels safe and comfortable, her playful and affectionate personality really shines. This little lady has typical puppy energy—she loves toys, gentle playtime, and exploring the world around her. Sammy is already showing how smart she is and will do best with positive training, patience, and reassurance as she builds confidence. She is doing great with crate and potty training and will thrive with continued training. With a little time, she blossoms into a loyal cuddle bug who enjoys being close to her people. Sammy is looking for a forever home willing to go at her pace and help her grow into the amazing dog she’s meant to be. If you’re ready for soft kisses, happy wiggles, and a lifetime of love, Sammy may be your perfect match. 🐾💖
