Story
Jayce has had a rough start, but you would not know it when you meet him. He lived his life on a chain, he almost lost his life after being attacked by another dog which is when he came into our care. Jayce went from living on a chain, to a kennel for a few months and now he has freedom and he LOVES it!! He enjoys finding a cool place to rest, he ABSOLUTELY loves toys! He is often found with a toy in his mouth, he tosses them and entertains himself. He enjoys a leisurely walk and then is ready for more relaxing. Jayce may seem intimidating with his deep bass bark, but he will wag his tail along with his whole body just as quickly once he sees you. He is an enthusiastic and affectionate boy. Jayce gets along well with female dogs (as long as they aren't overly dominant). He is a pretty laid back guy that is just so happy to be in the moment. He could stand to learn not to jump when excited but otherwise he is a perfect gentleman. Jayce has been waiting to go home for 8 months for someone to pick him. He is a solid guy, weighing around 60 lbs. His ideal family would be one without small children as he has not had the opportunity to meet them. **************PLEASE READ THIS FOR NEXT STEPS**************** COMPLETED APPLICATIONS TAKE PRECEDENCE OVER INQUIRIES.

Story
Meet Adonis & Aurora – Bonded Siblings Looking for Their Forever Home 🐾💛 Adonis and Aurora are a bonded brother–sister duo who have shared every chapter of life together—and they’re ready to start their next one side by side in a loving home. ✨ Adonis is the noble heart of the pair. He’s affectionate, playful, and wonderfully friendly, with a sweet and loving nature that shines through in everything he does. He has a spontaneous, joyful spirit and brings a little extra spark wherever he goes—always ready for fun, cuddles, or a new adventure. 🌙 Aurora is his gentle counterpart. She’s sweet, shy, and tender-hearted, with a cuddly side that truly blossoms once she feels safe. Curious and playful in her own soft way, Aurora loves quiet affection and takes comfort in staying close to her brother. Both are about one year old, past the tiny puppy stage but still full of youthful charm and curiosity. Together, they balance each other beautifully—confidence and calm, playfulness and sweetness, all wrapped into one perfect pair. Adonis and Aurora must be adopted together, as their bond is strong and comforting to them both. In return, they’ll fill your home with twice the love, loyalty, and companionship. If you’re ready to open your heart to two inseparable souls who will grow with you and love you endlessly, Adonis and Aurora are waiting. ❤️🐶🐶
