My story

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

On 8/31/2023 we went to a home and saved 11 dogs from being starved to death. There were 4 adults and 7 pups. The pup were almost 6 months old and were the size and weight of 3 month old babies. The owners were joking around and saying "they look fine "that's their breed. Meanwhile these puppies were skin stretched over bone. Some were so weak they couldn't walk. Momma was caged out back with no shelter, food or water. We saved them just in time. Another day or two a few of the puppies would have passed away. We held them for months and months till court was held. The owner was charged and we gained custody of the dogs. We were to grateful to finally own these precious souls and find them good homes like they should have had to begin with.
Trooper is such a handsome fit fella now. He is very playful and loves to get a good belly rub. He has a bit of stranger danger from his past trauma so whoever adopts him will need to spend some time with him prior to taking him home. Once he trust you he loves you forever! Trooper is a submissive and sensitive fella sometimes. He is neutered and up to date on vaccines. Partially house trained. Dog selective so meet and greet required. Adoption fee is $100

More about this shelter

Our shelter is staffed by only a few employees so we greatly depend on volunteers to help care for our animals.
We work very closely with rescue groups to help move our dogs out of the shelter quickly. Our goal is to never have to euthanize for space. We cannot do that without rescue assistance because our adoption rates are very low.
