Story
Jeanie is a very playful medium size puppy. Born November 2023. Weighs 38 lbs and still growing. I got her from Pet Alliance in Sanford. She's super active and loves to play tug-a-war with the big rope. Great at catching tennis balls and brings them back every time. Active outdoors, and indoors is calm. She sleeps on a fluffy rug next to my bed. Has never been on any furniture. She hasn't totally adapted to the leash and needs someone strong to train her. She's a very good dog and needs the right person to be her best friend. The photos were taken a few months ago. Come see her ; you'll be glad you did.

Story
We rescued Harley off the side of the road in South Carolina. We’ve had her for 5 years. She’s sweet and skittish. She’s house trained and all of her shots are up to date—but she needs dental work. We want Harley to go to a home where someone will love her and give her the attention she needs (we have a 2 year old and another on the way).

Story
Hi, I'm Parker. At 2 years old, I've spent most of my life in this shelter, but my heart hasn't stopped dreaming of a home of my own. Life hasn't always been kind to me. I was found as a stray after being hit by a car, and one of my back legs had to be removed. I may only have three legs, but I'm proof that strength and resilience come in all shapes and forms. I'm a simple guy who loves the quiet life. Crowds, loud noises, and too much commotion aren't for me. My dream home? One or two calm, loving humans who understand me. A fenced backyard where I can bask in the sun - oh, how I love to sunbathe - would be the cherry on top. I'll be loyal to you through thick and thin because once I love you, it's forever. I'll admit, I'm particular about my company. Other dogs, cats, and young kids aren't my vibe, but I promise I'll be all the companionship you'll ever need. My friends here at the shelter are wonderful, but I'm ready for something permanent - for a family who will never give up on me again. I've waited a long time for this, and I'm so ready to start the next chapter of my life - with you.

Story
Hi there, I'm Ernest! At 6 years young, I'm a big-hearted, happy guy looking for my forever family. I'm known as the shelter's gentle giant, and I promise, my love is as big as my paws! I'm great with most dogs and even love hanging out with kids - I'm pretty much everyone's friend. The only thing is, I do have a high prey drive, so I'd prefer a home without cats. I'm one of the cleanest dogs in the kennel and totally housebroken - no messes with me! Plus, I walk like a pro on a leash, so I'll be the best partner for those relaxed neighborhood strolls. Because of my collapsed trachea, I do need to wear a harness on our walks, but that just means you get to dress me up in some cool styles! All I want is a safe, loving home where I can be myself and be loved furever. If you're looking for a gentle, loyal buddy who's ready to fill your life with joy, I'm your guy. Come meet me, and let's start our journey together!

Story
Hi, I'm Mandy! I'm a 9-year-old mix, and let me tell you, I'm a pro when it comes to lounging and snuggling-especially after a good walk. Speaking of walks, I'm great on a leash. When I'm not out exploring, you'll find me deconstructing my stuffed toys (I'm a bit of a toy surgeon-I just can't resist pulling out all the squeakers!). I'm a pretty mellow girl and would thrive in a quiet, calm home. I get along with easygoing, neutral dogs who respect my space, and with a little patience and a slow introduction, I think I could live with a cat too. I've lived with kids before, but I'd really prefer an adult-only household where I can enjoy the peace and quiet. I'm Heartworm positive. But don't worry! My treatment is all taken care of-so I'm on the mend and ready to move on with life. I'm housebroken, crate trained, and I know how to relax when it's time for a movie marathon. If you're looking for a loving, low-maintenance companion who's ready to snuggle up and enjoy your company, I'm your girl! Come meet me-I can't wait to make you smile.
