Story
Meet Your New Best Friend! Jayce is a 3-year-old Brittnay Mix who is looking for his forever home. While he might be a little shy when you first meet him, give him a moment to come out of his shell, and you'll find a funny, bouncy, and deeply loving companion. Jayce is a "paws-on" kind of dog! He is famous for his hugs and will spend his time trying to wrap his paws around you if he isn't already trying to curl up in your lap. He is the perfect blend of a lounge partner and a playmate. Because of his cautious temperament, Jayce has some specific needs to help him feel safe and successful: No Other Dogs: He prefers being the "only child" and can be reactive toward strange dogs. Quiet Environment: He would not enjoy the high-stress environment of a dog park. Patient Humans: He needs an owner who understands he needs to approach new things at his own pace. No Strangers (at first): He can be vocal with people he doesn't know, but his loyalty to his inner circle is unmatched. If you have the patience to let him blossom, you will be rewarded with a level of love and loyalty that only a dog like Jayce can give. He is ready to be your most devoted friend. Jayce's adoption fee is $325 to offset the cost of vetting and help other rescues in need. He is currently located in Georgia and can be transported up to 1400 miles via our Canine Railroad.

Story
Ripley is the sweetest dog who ever was. She is highly energetic, protective of her family, and extremely friendly. She loves to work, throw the frisbee, go for long walks and run free in the fields and woods. We got Ripley as a puppy of 7 weeks, and have raised her the last five years, loving her every second. After much time and thought, we are heartbrokenly deciding that we do not have the time and energy to give her that she needs. She is a herding dog, and is in need of a lot of exercise and intentional time spent playing and working. We are hoping for her to go somewhere with land and space to run free, ideally with jobs to do. We want her to find a home where she is given tons of attention and time.

Story
Gambit is a foster we took in about 6 months ago. He has been great, but we do not have the time to train him to leave our cats alone. He gets along great with our other Australian Shepherd, and would do great with another dog. He needs someone who can dedicate time every day to training. He is very trainable and food motivated, friendly, just does not tolerate the presence of cats. He also loves drinking from his hamster bottle.
