Story
Tucker is a 4-year-old Border Collie/Blue Heeler mix who has completely stolen my heart. When I adopted him last year, it took time to build his trust, but once we did, he’s never left my side. He’s incredibly loyal, loves to cuddle, and wants nothing more than to be with his person. He’s very smart, he knows all his toys by name, and fetch is his absolute favorite game. With a ball in his mouth and someone to throw it, he’s the happiest boy alive. Sadly, I can no longer give Tucker the time and attention he deserves. I’m looking for someone who can provide him with the love, care, and companionship that he has given me. A few meet-and-greets will help him transition smoothly into his new home, and I know with a little patience he will become your best friend. If you think you can give Tucker the forever home he deserves, please call me, Brandon, at (xxx) xxx-xxxx .

Story
Meet Domino, an 11 month old Poodle mix. This tender-hearted pup is shy, especially in the busy shelter environment, and often retreats into his quiet shell. What he needs most is a patient, loving family who will let him open up at his own pace. Give Domino the safe, loving home he deserves, and he’ll fill your heart with devotion.Domino will need an indoor home and a secure containment area to stay safe from wandering and escaping. Positive reinforcement, fear-free training will be needed. Daily exercise and mental enrichment will be very important. If you have other dogs in your home, we would be happy to arrange a meet and greet with your dog(s) to make sure everyone gets along. We don’t know how he will do with cats.Domino is up to date on vaccines, microchipped, neutered, and ready to go home today!

Story
Meet Blossom! After 5 months of crate rest and rehab, this brave beauty is ready to step into her forever home. Blossom came to us with a severely shattered pelvis and almost no options in the shelter—but thanks to the kindness of her foster, Staci, and a lot of love and care, she’s blossomed into the happy, social girl she was always meant to be. Despite her tough start, Blossom’s gentle spirit never wavered. Dr. Ruth and our team were in awe of how sweet and patient she was through such a painful recovery. Today, Blossom enjoys leash walks, prances with a comfortable trot, and continues to grow stronger every day. Blossom may face some early arthritis down the road, but that’s a possibility with any pup—and with regular vet care and love, she’ll be your loyal best friend for years to come. She’ll also need brushing and regular grooming to keep her looking her best. What makes Blossom amazing? 5-year-old spayed female, Bernadoodle-type mix Social butterfly—great with dogs, cats, and kids Housebroken, crate trained, and good on leash Up to date on vaccinations (DHPPV, Rabies, Bordetella), dewormed, microchipped Blossom is the full package—beauty, brains, and a heart of gold. She’s ready to bring joy, love, and a little sparkle to the lucky family who says “yes” to her.
