Good with kids, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
This friend has just arrived because their owner could no longer keep them. While owners can provide some history on their pets, our medical and behavioral teams will still evaluate them. Dogs that have lived in homes previously typically have some training established, but we cannot guarantee that those behaviors will remain consistent in a new home environment. They are pending interactions with other animals at the shelter until they have been cleared by our vet. Our staff will spend some time getting to know them and we will update their bio with more information as we learn. If you are interested in adopting this dog, please submit an adoption questionnaire! Our adoption process is on a first-come, best-match basis and we are not able to hold animals. If you are interested in this specific dog but it ends up not being the best fit upon meeting, our adoption counselors will work with you to help find a match! All household members, including children and other dogs, must come along for the meeting to make sure it's a good fit. If a match is made, we encourage same-day adoptions! Our adoption fees include the animals' spay/neuter, microchip, age-appropriate vaccinations and preventatives, fecal testing, heartworm testing, and a small bag of food to get you started.

Story
Tessie is a one-year-old Blue Heeler with a big heart packed into a petite 20-lb body. Like many Heelers, she forms a deep bond with her person and loves being close — she’s the ultimate little “Velcro dog.” Her favorite things include outdoor adventures, chew toys, exploring the yard, and then settling in for a cozy couch nap with her favorite human. Tessie is incredibly smart and will quickly learn a new routine, but she’ll do best with a patient adopter who will give her a little time and space to settle into her new home. Once she trusts you, her loyalty is unmatched. She also takes her job as yard supervisor very seriously and has the cutest little sassy strut when she’s feeling happy. While she prefers being out and about with her people, she can stay in a crate when needed. Tessie would make a wonderful companion for someone looking for a devoted, intelligent dog who will be by their side through life’s adventures. ❤️ If you think Tessie might be the perfect match for you, please apply at straynetwork.org #adoptdontshop

Story
Meet Pringle — Once You Pop, You Can’t Stop! Meet Pringle, the shelter pup who is ready to pop right into your heart! This adorable little guy may have started out in a shelter, but he’s hoping his next chapter is stacked with love, belly rubs, and a forever family. Pringle is proof that the best things in life come in cute, furry packages! He’s been waiting patiently for someone to say, “You’re the one!” Because let’s be honest… once you meet Pringle, it’s pretty hard to pass him by. Pringle doesn’t want to be just another snack in the shelter—he wants to be your main squeeze, your couch potato, and the pup who’s always by your side. Give this sweet boy a chance, and we promise your heart will be full of Pringle-sized happiness. Don’t let Pringle get shelved in the shelter. He’s ready to be picked off the shelf and taken home! Once you pop, you simply can’t stop… loving Pringle! ❤️September 22, 2026, 3:19 pm

This friend has just arrived to us as a stray. When animals are found as strays, our staff will search for an owner. If no one comes to reclaim the pet, we will begin looking for a new home. Unfortunately, we rarely have a background on stray animals. Our staff will spend some time getting to know them and update their bio with more information as we learn. They are pending interactions with other animals until they have been cleared by our vet. Please note that we are often unsure of house, crate, car, and leash training status upon arrival.
