Story
Oh my goodness! This guy has turned out to be such a cutie. Arlo is a total character who will keep you laughing. Arlo was tied up behind an H&#226&#128&#145E&#226&#128&#145B for over 12 hours. Nobody knows how or why but thank goodness a Good Samaritan saw him and took him home. Arlo is an Australian shepherd mix about 3-4 years old. He weighs right around 40 pounds. He has the absolute cutest prance, a HUGE SMILE, and absolutely loves his “puppy massage” Arlo is up to date on vaccines and is neutered. Sadly he is heartworm positive but Scout’s Honor Rescue will cover the cost of his slow kill treatment. If interested in adopting or fostering Arlo please fill out the appropriate application and we will be in touch right away. November 29, 2025, 11:55 pm

If you would like more information about Angel or are interested in adopting her, please send an email to davidchandler1213@gmail.com Meet Angel – A Sweet Soul Looking for a Calm, Loving Home Angel is a beautiful 9-year-old Australian Shepherd mix with a gentle spirit and a heart full of love. We adopted her in 2018, and she’s been a loyal companion ever since. She’s house-trained, well-mannered indoors, and happiest when she’s by your side on a peaceful walk or relaxing nearby. Angel thrives in a calm, predictable environment. She hasn’t done well with other dogs, so she’d do best as the only dog in the home. But she gets along well with our cats so it's possible she could adjust to other cats. Her ideal home would be with adults or older children. Although Angel can pull when she sees other dogs, she absolutely loves going for walks and being outdoors. We recently welcomed a baby into our home, and unfortunately, Angel has been showing signs of stress around the baby. This decision has been heartbreaking, but we want to do what’s best for her, and that means finding a home where she can feel safe, relaxed, and loved. Angel is spayed, up to date on vaccinations, and in good health. She would be a wonderful companion for someone looking for a loyal, low-key best friend to share their life with. If you think you could be the right fit for Angel, we’d love to talk with you and arrange a meet and greet.

LOVES TO SNUGGLE AND GET OODLES OF ATTENTION  Estimated DOB 3/25/24, weight 40 lbs. This young girl Calliope is very sweet and playful, and has energy to spare!  Her foster home has several dogs and Calliope wants to play -- er -- wrestle with all of them.  She loves to go on walks, meet new people, play with her stuffed animal toys, and snuggle on the couch for movie time. Calliope was abandoned in the parking lot of a PetSmart but fortunately, her future foster mom worked at the store and scooped her right up! Calliope knows Sit and Wait, and likes to sleep in her crate at night.   Calliope would love a home where she can get lots of attention and exercise as well as have a canine brother or sister to play with.  Is that you? HOPE ID D24-1116-0045 Calliope's $200 adoption fee includes spay/neuter, basic vaccines, microchip and registration, testing for heartworms, negative fecal test, and preventative treatment for heartworms and fleas.

Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Meet Benji, an incredibly loving and quiet dog who loves to explore, go on walks, play, follow you around, and get as many pets from you as he can! Although not much of a barker or whiner, Benji is still very social. Every person and dog he meets is his friend. This makes him perfect walking buddy as he never makes a fuss when somebody walks by. He also enjoys lounging around and begging for pets and scratches. If he decides the amount of attention you gave him wasn’t enough, he’ll put his paw onto your hand to get you to continue! Benji is very well-behaved overall. Even when he’s hesitant to do something you want him to (like taking a bath), he never shows signs of aggression. He is crate-trained and sleeps through the night without any issues. He's also potty-trained! Benji would be a great fit in any type of household, especially one with kids and other dogs. If you’re looking for a loyal, sweet companion who will give you endless amounts of love, Benji is the match for you. Benji is a male Border Collie mix with an estimated date of birth of 3/1/19. He weighs 38 lbs.

Story
Hi, I'm Bronze ! I'm a happy go-lucky pup with lots of joyful energy to share. I have 3 legs, but that does not slow be down one bit! I get the zoomies just like any other pup and I can be just as fast as them! I love giving kisses and getting my pets. On the nice sunny days I'm all about laying out in the sun to soak in some Vitamin D. I’m currently hanging out with my friends while getting basic training at our offsite partner boarding facility. Submit an adoption survey to set up an appointment to meet me! To learn more about me, fill out our adoption survey: https://www.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/BHOU/Dog
