Story
🍀 Shamrock 🍀If you’ve been hoping to find a little extra luck this St. Patrick’s Day season, allow us to introduce Shamrock… a 5-month-old puppy who might just be your four-legged lucky charm.Shamrock is a black bundle of joy with soft, thick, wavy fur that has us all playing a daily game of “Guess That Breed.” We were told she’s a Heeler/Lab mix, but that fluffy coat has us wondering if a little poodle snuck into the family tree… and honestly, she looks a bit like a Golden Retriever too. Genetics can be as mysterious as a leprechaun’s treasure chest. 🌈What we do know for sure is this: Shamrock is pure gold where it counts. She’s a gentle, sweet-natured puppy who gets along wonderfully with kids, cats, and other dogs. She has a soft spirit and a friendly personality that makes her easy to love.Like any young pup, she’s ready to learn, play, and grow alongside her future family. With a little guidance and a lot of love, this girl will absolutely sham-rock your world.There is just one tiny catch…While she’s wonderful with just about everyone, chickens are unfortunately not on her friends list. So if you’re running a backyard chicken operation, Shamrock will politely have to pass. Sorry, chicken farmers. 🐔But if your home is chicken-free and you’re ready to add a little luck of the Irish to your life, Shamrock might just be the pot of gold you’ve been searching for. 🍀🐾Her adoption fee is $225 and this includes her spay, age appropriate vaccines, dewormer, flea and tick prevention, heartworm prevention, and a microchip that we register for you.

Story
🐄 CLARABELLEMostly black with white spotting | ~1 year oldClarabelle is the observant one. Mostly black with charming white accents, she has a calm, watchful presence and a heart that’s still learning how big the world really is.Clarabelle has lived her whole life outdoors, so house training will be part of her transition. She’s unsure of this new indoor chapter, but she’s incredibly gentle and eager to please. She knows some basic commands and is already showing how responsive she can be once she feels safe.Clarabelle came from a farm environment where she did well with cats, chickens, and kids, and she’s familiar with being around other dogs. Meet and greets with any resident dogs will be required to make sure it’s a good fit for everyone.Clarabelle needs an adopter who understands cattle dog mixes aren’t couch ornaments. She’ll need daily exercise, structure, and mental stimulation to truly shine. With the right routine, she could adapt beautifully to indoor living or an active indoor/outdoor setup with the proper setup.She’s the kind of dog who might start out quietly watching from the sidelines…then stick by your side like she’s always belonged there.
