My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet this cutie named Milo! He originally came into the shelter January 19, 2022 when his owner could no longer keep him. They said that he could be destructive while inside the home…maybe anxiety. He is 4 years old, current on shots, and already neutered. He was adopted and 2 years later May 29, 2024 he finds himself needing a FOREVER home. Sad for this guy to be in and out of homes so he’s keeping his paws crossed that his real FOREVER home is there and ready to scoop him up. He is a sweet and super playful fella who is also full of love to share. He does love to play fetch with a toy or ball and is quickly learning to drop it and leave it (toy) so you can throw it again for him to fetch. He is eager to grab it so use caution and asking him to leave it is teaching manners and learning patience. Maybe having a ball in your hand to throw would be good too. He’s is smart and eager to learn and please. Just needs a home that will give him consistency and structure so he can be the best Milo!! Stop by for a visit with this adorable fella today and adopt him into your heart and home!
If you have another dog and are interested in meeting another potential new furry member please bring him or her to the shelter and meet on neutral ground before adopting. No need to shuffle the animals around any more than necessary. Please know that 1 mosquito bite can create heart worms and they can be fatal if not treated. It is VERY important to keep your pets healthy and protected by keeping them on a once a month heart worm and flea/tick prevention. These animals are counting on you as their owner to provide them with lots a love and the proper health care so PLEASE make sure you are aware and prepared before adopting. Owning a pet is an extra expense and responsibility but is so worth every minute and penny you invest in them. They will add lots of joy and unconditional love if given a fair chance.
The shelter is open Mon.-Fri. 11-1, 2-5, Sat. 11- 4. Adopt a homeless pet and save a life. If you can not adopt right now come out and volunteer and make a difference in the lives of these animals while they await their FOREVER home.
In order to adopt any of our "bully breeds" there is special paper work that will need to be collected and approved prior to the adoption. We love all of our dogs and want to make sure to place our "bully babies" in homes best suited for them.

More about this shelter

We are a non-profit orginization relying on donations. We do have a contract witht the county to provide shelter for strays brought in. We have limited space but try to get our animals back to thier families and if that can not be accomplished we work hard on finding them new homes.
We do what we do because we love animals. We are realistic in in efforts, understand the problem and work towards educating the public on what needs to be done to prevent over population.
