Story
Jazzy is a female American Bulldog mix that is around a year old. She came to the rescue because her owner could not care for her, and she needed emergency medical attention. She had surgery to remove a corn cob that was blocking her colon, but she is doing very well now. She doesn’t seem to like other dogs or cats and will need to be the only dog in the home. She is good with people and likes everyone she has encountered here. She is up to date on vaccinations, spayed and microchipped. Jazzy needs to find a home with people who will give her all the love she deserves.

Story
Everyone meet Beau. I rescued him from my little sister on Feb 2024 and planned to foster him until he got healthy. My sister just had a baby and couldn’t afford him, or provide and care and had to place him outside. I am a HUGE pet lover and once I found out what kinda shape he was in- I went to pick him up. He was covered in sores and found out he had heart worms after I took him to the vet to get checked over. He has been fully treated and is heart worm free. I have grown to love Beau so much but before I rescued him, I already had a dog and a very busy life. He has a lot of energy and NEEDS to be around someone or a family that is active and willing to give him SO much of their love and time. He deserves nothing but a loving/playful home!

Story
Very sweet girl. Can be timid at first but warms up quick. She is very smart, and picks up on new tricks so fast! Quinn is currently in a foster home that loves her dearly. They do have cats and noted she should be in a home without them. She is great with other dogs. This precious girl deserves the best home, where she can acquire her dream job; lap dog.
