Story
Pippa recently came back with Morgan - both dogs adopted through us in separate years - after their owner passed away. We want to make note that Pippa left here in 2023 a very healthy 40ish lbs, and now weighs mid 70s. Almost doubled her weight! We will be having her checked for Cushing's disease etc to see if this is why she is so big, but no owner should have let her get this big whether it be from diet or a veterinary diagnosis. Overweight dogs, and even more so those considered obese, face a multitude of health risks, including osteoarthritis, diabetes, respiratory issues, and a decreased lifespan. We can already see the joint pain and bending of her ankles from the excess weight. So we have started her on weight management food, supplementing with green beans, and pain meds. If you happen to have any green beans sitting in your pantry you won't eat, drop them by! They are useful in making her feel full but low calories. She is available for adoption, but we will remain in close contact to make sure a diet protocol is followed to help get her healthy again. She is around 5/6 years old. She came to us in 2022 with her litter of pups and was always such a wonderful girl. She is a heeler /hound mix. Up to date on vaccines/dewormer/spayed, 4dx tested, and microchipped.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Meet Wrangler If you're looking for a dog who's got both a brain and a sense of humor, let us introduce you to Wrangler! This 4.5-year-old goofball is a mystery mix - we're guessing part heeler, but we do know he’s full of charm.  Wrangler is a pro at playing with toys and loves a good walk, but his true talent lies in his ability to train humans. He's very particular when it comes to taking treats - don't even think about handing him one. The proper way is to toss it in the air and watch him catch it. It makes the treats more delicious Wrangler is so smart! On our organized volunteer walks, he’s got it all figured out. He'll stop dead in his tracks, make direct eye contact with the person who he knows is a good thrower, and just stare until they give in. (it doesn’t usually take long - he has our volunteers trained well) He also prefers to rock a harness for his walks, instead of a regular leash. If you’re ready to meet your match in wits and fun, Wrangler is the guy for you! He’s smart, picky, and full of love. Come meet this hilarious boy and see if you can pass his treat-tossing test!
