Story
Meet Bella Baby, she is almost 4 years old and looking for her forever home. She is the perfect combination of high energy adventurer and cuddly homebody loyal to her loved ones and extremely affectionate (loves to cuddle and follow you around). She is your perfect companion for hiking, jogging, swimming, road trips (she adores car rides), camping, you name it! Bella has yet to explore the great outdoors and would absolutely love to be adopted by people who have are experienced in big breeds, have active lifestyles with a moderately large home, no kids, no dogs (cats ok but slowly), big private yard to ensure she gets plenty of running and playtime. She could use help with socializing her very slowly to strangers whom she has anxious traits about (excessive barking/jolting, etc). Because Bella Baby gets so attached to her primary caretakers, she needs to be trained to tolerate changes like visitors but I believe enrichment and an active life will also help. Apply to come meet her!

Story
I am the sweetest nugget of love! I am happy to meet new friends, either people or pups! I do great with other dogs, cats, and even kids. I have lived in both houses and apartments, and will do well in any setting. I am potty trained, and pretty relaxed and sorta quiet for a beagle! I would make any family very happy!

Story
I am an easygoing sweet senior! Don't let my age fool you - I have a spring in my step and a curiosity for all things food! I do great with other dogs and even cats. I love to chill and nap, but I also really enjoy walks! I have arthritis, but I don't let that slow me down, and I have responded very well to my new arthritis shots I am taking. I even have moments where I get very playful and toss a toy around with you! I am fearless, and while my back legs aren't the strongest, I don't let that stop me from climbing up and down stairs! (Supervised, of course!) I am looking for a family who will fill my golden years with lots of love!

Story
I am a small & sweet senior who will steal your heart! I have the cutest little face that'll make you melt. I am great with other pups, either friendly with them or indifferent. I was the life at the party at a recent event I went to, approaching all the humans and gently presenting myself for pets! Everyone fell in love with me! My last family said I have separation anxiety and struggled with peeing inside, but I have been on my best behavior at my fun boarding place. So this naughtiness has yet to be seen! Will you be my furever family?

Story
I'm an adorable guy who was found roaming the wilderness in Alabama! I've been nursed back to health by the kind folks who found me, and have done very well since. I do well with other dogs and with kids. The vets think I am between 1 and 2 years old, closer to 1. My biggest challenge is my separation anxiety, which I'm working on. I would do best in a house instead of an apartment, as my separation anxiety could get you in trouble with noise complaints. Will you be my furever family?

Gorgeous rare breed found tied to a tree and abused. Been in foster and retraining/socializing for six months. Very smart and obedient. Requires experienced adopter.
