Meghan is a sweet older girl who may be a little more mature, but she’s still very spry and full of energy! She loves to run around, go on walks, chase the ball, and, of course, get endless pets and cuddles. Meghan is fully potty trained and does great in the house. She would thrive in a home with another dog, as long as there’s a slow, proper introduction to help her adjust.

Meghan will make a fantastic addition to the right home!

Story
Hi there, I’m Prince! I’m a very good boy who knows lots of manners and is eager to show them off. Sometimes, I get a little overwhelmed with excitement and might jump around, but I always listen when I’m asked to settle down. I’m sweet and have some training under my belt, but I’m excited to continue learning and growing with the right person. I’m house trained and have never destroyed any household items—I'm a well-behaved companion. I absolutely love to play fetch and can keep myself entertained for hours chasing after the ball. I also enjoy chewing on bones, which helps keep me busy and content. I’m very smart and quick to pick up new things, so I would benefit from being in an active household where I can stay mentally and physically stimulated. I’m looking for a forever home that will love and appreciate my energy and enthusiasm for life. If you’re looking for a loyal and playful friend, I’d love for you to schedule an appointment to come meet me!

Story
Hey there, I’m Nelly! I’m a sweet, loving girl who’s always ready to give and receive affection. My absolute favorite thing in the world is butt rubs — I’m a total wiggle butt and love curling up on laps for snuggles! I do enjoy a good game of fetch with tennis balls, but I can also be super laid back and chill. I’d do best in a single-dog home because I’m all about being the star of the show! If you’re looking for a loving and fun companion, come say hi — I can’t wait to meet you!

Story
Lea is an incredibly playful and wiggly puppy who loves to interact with others, especially senior dogs. She has a fun, energetic personality and enjoys playtime. While she likes to chase cats, she does well with them and can coexist peacefully when given the right boundaries. Lea is still a work in progress when it comes to potty training, but she uses the doggy door from time to time and does well with potty pads. Her food motivation makes her eager to learn and easy to train, especially when treats are involved. Although Lea isn't a big fan of the kennel yet, she’s adjusting, and with patience, she will grow more comfortable. She absolutely loves to have things to chew on and will happily entertain herself with toys or chews. Above all, Lea is a huge cuddle bug who loves snuggling up for some quality bonding time. With her sweet nature and affectionate personality, Lea is sure to be a wonderful addition to any loving home.

Story
Hi there, I’m Sir Sheldon! I’m a crazy energetic young man with a big personality, and I’m looking for a family to help me learn the proper way to be a dog. I’m in need of a bit of training, but with lots of love and patience, I know I can be the best boy! I do have a bit of anxiety, so when it comes to car rides, I have to be kenneled—because, to be honest, I think the safest spot is on your lap! It’s a dangerous place, after all! I can be jumpy and occasionally mouthy, but it’s always very gentle and just part of my quirky nature. I absolutely love running around and playing fetch, and I’m in need of lots of exercise to keep me happy. After all that energy is burned off, I’m also a big fan of cuddles and will happily snuggle up with you. If you think we could be the perfect match, I’d love for you to schedule a time to meet me today!
