My story

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

For the well-being of our dogs, our kennels are closed to the public for general viewing. If you are interested in one of our dogs, please call 1-800-452-0114 for more information or stop by our shelters 12:00pm- 4:30pm, 7 days a week and speak to one of our adoption counselors.

~ I can live in a single family home, condos and apartments considered. (with minimal stairs)
~ I have not had much experience with children but am willing to consider sharing my home with dog savvy kids 8 and older who can be gentle and respectful of pets.
~ I would like to live with a dog but I have not had much experience with cats. I may be willing to share my home with a feline.
~ I am a high energy kind of dog and am looking for a home where I can get lots of exercise every day.
~ I am a great dog with lots of potential. I need a family with general dog experience.
~ I have some special needs but still have lots of life to live and love to give. Please ask the adoption counselor to explain when you visit with me.

Having only one eye and 3 1/2 legs doesn`t stop Troop from living his best life! As evident from his physical appearance Troop has been through some stuff. We`ve learned that he earned his name as a Trooper and he takes all things in stride. Although he may look a little silly to some people, that doesn`t slow him down. Troop is a lovely boy that enjoys exploring, playing and resting under the desk, using the staffs feet as a pillow. His squishy personality has won over all of the staff here and we can`t wait to find Troop a loving home to rest his big ole` noggin in forever. If you think you can keep up with this fun loving guy, please ask an adoption counselor for more information!
