Story
“HI ALL!!! My name is Tina (but I answer to hand signals!) I’m under 4years old as much as I love my friends here I really would LOVE a foster or forever home that can help me along- I have had a hard time training due to being deaf and some people just don’t understand me:( I would require a new parent to be very understanding and knowledgeable regarding hearing impaired pets or willing to work with me. I have been returned a few times due to my mouth getting me into trouble:( But, I know my forever home is out there!!! I’m the best girl ever I promise and I would LOVE a place to call home for now or permanently that has prior experience with a deaf puppy!!!”   ##575157##

Story
Hi, I'm Abby! I have been at the shelter for a while now and really want to find my forever home. I am an Aussie/ heeler mix and have the personality to match. I will fit best with somebody who is willing to invest in dog training and has experience with herding dogs. If you give me a little time to learn what you want from me, I know I will make you happy. I prefer a human with an active lifestyle and want a fenced yard to run in to keep me physically active. Since I'm a very intelligent dog, I would love to have my brain challenged! I would prefer a home without other animals or children. I have some arthritis in my hips and the vet has found a protocol that keeps me comfortable. Feel free to ask us about it!Please come meet me soon!DOB 8/8/20 44 poundsI'm waiting for a home to call my own. email webmaster@petrefuge.com to learn more about me or fill out an application at https://www.petrefuge.com/adoptPet Refuge was formed in 1978 to help with cats and dogs in need of homes.

Suki is the sweetest most happy girl around. Shes smart as a whip and full or energy. Shes grown up with another dog and a cat and kids under 10. She just needs more attention than we can provide.

Story
Paisley is a Female Aussie/Terrier mix. DOB: June of 2022 Adoption fee: $100.00 I am not a big girl. I was quite thin upon arrival at the shelter. I have now been spayed, and I am gaining weight at a healthy rate. I am an active girl, so I may always be on the slender side. I am doing well with leash walking. I am clean in my kennel and will wait patiently for my turn to go out. I may require a physically fenced-in yard. Not much information was provided on intake, and I can be a little nervous in new situations. I appear to be playful towards other dogs but may have too much of a prey drive to be in a home with cats. I will be a great walking or playing in the yard buddy. I am sure once I have exercised, I will also enjoy taking naps.
