Story
Hi my name is Sally! I’m a 5-7 year old Kelpie mix who is eager to please my people! I am house broken, kennel trained, I know sit, down and no. I will also sit and wait for my food until given the okay if asked. I love to play with toys and to have plenty of bones to chew on. Even though I came from somewhere with no snow I have loved going outside in it and even roll around. Snow in my opinion is pretty cool!I do well with other dogs, I can be a bit sassy however. I like to let them know by growling if I feel they are getting too close to my favorite toys, bones or people. But I also growl when I want to play, I’m pretty harmless just want to let people know I’m here and paying attention. I’m not sure about cats as I haven’t been around them so that would have to be an introduction if you have a kitty fur friend too. When my foster family is home I prefer to be close to one of them. My foster mom and dad tell me I’m the sweetest girl ever and someone would be lucky to have me. If you are looking for a want to be lap dog, a super loyal companion, someone to give belly rubs to and a billion kisses a day I may just be the one you’ve been looking for.All adoptions are $300 per dog for puppies under 1 year, $250 for adults 1 - 9 years old and $150 for senior dogs which include spay/neuter, micro-chipped and up-to-date on required shots. Senior dogs, at our discretion, are adopted out at $150 per dog because we know they will have less time with your family and may eventually have more needs as they get older. But we feel these dogs deserve to live out the rest of their lives as part of a loving family.

Story
Meet Tatiana! 🌟This stunning 2-year-old, 40-pound Carolina Dog/Cattle Dog mix is ready to start a new chapter—and she’s hoping it’s with you! With her graceful frame and regal features, we wouldn’t be surprised if there’s a little Pharaoh Hound in her lineage too. (We’d love if her future family did a DNA test and shared the results!) Tatiana was rescued just in time with her puppies when their time was up at the shelter. She was a devoted mama, and now that her pups are weaned and thriving, it’s finally her turn to be doted on. She’s gentle, loving, and friendly with everyone she meets—dogs and humans alike! Tatiana loves playing and romping with her doggy friends but also has a calm, sweet side that makes her the perfect companion. Ready to give a deserving mama the happily-ever-after she’s earned? Tatiana can’t wait to meet you.
