My story

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

Meet Nugget! This lovable 3-year-old Shepherd mix is looking for his forever home. Nugget is a friendly, social pup who enjoys greeting everyone he meets with a wagging tail and a happy spirit! Energetic and playful, he would thrive in a home with an active family that loves outdoor adventures and fun activities. Treats are his favorite way to connect—he’s incredibly treat-motivated and will happily sit on command or even catch treats mid-air! Nugget has been known to climb fences, so a secure yard would be the perfect fit for him. He’s been keeping his kennel tidy, which suggests he may be potty trained. Nugget has done well with other dogs and could potentially go home with another dog if it`s a good match. Nugget is ready to bring his love and energy into a new home—could it be yours?

Additional adoption info

PUPPIES

Any dog that is younger than 1 year old is considered a puppy. They come with age-appropriate vaccines, are dewormed, microchipped, on heartworm preventative, and if age allows spay/neutered. If they are not old enough to have the procedure done, we do require a $100 deposit which is refunded once the surgery is done. We require the spay/neuter to be done at 6 months and can schedule it at one of our vets if you wish to not use your own vet. If you do decide to go to your own vet, once proof of procedure is done, a refund can be issued. Puppy adoption fees are $350 + $100 refundable deposit.

ADULTS

Adult dogs are dogs that are ages 1 – 6 years old. They come with vaccinations (Bordetella, Rabies, Distemper), are dewormed, on heartworm prevention, microchipped, heartworm tested, and spay/neutered. Upon intake, they also have an initial wellness exam to screen for any pre-existing conditions. Their adoption fee is $300.

SENIORS

Senior dogs are dogs that are 7 years old and up. They come with vaccinations (Bordetella, Rabies, Distemper), are dewormed, on heartworm prevention, microchipped, heartworm tested, and if age allows spay/neutered. Upon intake, they also have an initial wellness exam to screen for any pre-existing conditions. Their adoption fee is $100.
