Check out our sister brand, Kinship, for vet chat, a nutrition calculator, basic obedience training, and (much) more. So you're never flying solo in this pet parenting thing.
Eden came in just before Christmas 2023, and what can we say? She was our Christmas present that year. She is one of the sweetest and funniest dogs in the shelter.
She does need some time to get to like strangers, especially men, but once she has you in her heart, you won't be able to escape her. We do recommend an adult-only home or a home with older teenagers. She hasn't been tested with cats yet, but she LOVES to play with other dogs. She will most likely need to be crated as she will tire herself out to the point of passing out while playing with other dogs.
She loves to chew on hard toys, splash in water, and take part in obedience classes. She knows all the basic commands like sit, down, place, and stay.

Over 1,100 animals pass through our doors every year. Did you know that the average cost to get our animals ready to be adoptable is roughly $350 per animal? That is because we require our adoptables to be spayed/neutered and fully vaccinated before adopting out.
Population control and disease management are issues in our community that we are working hard to resolve. Your donations help ensure we can continue our mission.
We have an amazing team of hard working staff caring for our animals 7 days a week. They are supported by a group of engaged board members that are focused on bettering our organization.
