Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Meet Miss Paisley Parker! ALL BREEDS ARE A GUESS When you say hi you must speak with a British accent and know that she expects an ice tax at any chance there is. She knows her name, knows sit, knows paw and "potty." Paisley will sit SO pretty and patiently waiting for her praise/pet/treat. She is very treat motivated. Paisley is working on her leash walking. She is getting the hang of it and lets everyone know how well she is doing. This tiny tyke is kind of like a toddler that just learned to walk. She is not interested in being held, she wants down and she wants to play. She wants to meet everyone that comes her way or out of her way. She is Ms Social butterfly! Toys, stuffies, Kong's, safe chews are all her favorite things in her pass time of entertaining herself while mom/dad take a break.   She currently lives with one big dog. one small dog, 2 kids and 2 parents. She is an active little girl, so, a family that will help her thrive and be involved with her would be best.   HHPR.rescuegroups.org for the required adoption application. $300 adoption feeVisit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.January 28, 2025, 5:01 pm

Story
This is Boone, he is 2 years old. he is a very lovable very energetic and very goofy guy. Our house is not the ideal place for him. He would thrive somewhere with a fence or somewhere for him to run. I can go into more info if interested This breaks my heart because I truly love him so much and he is so good to our daughter. But she is terrified of him due to his size and energy (has not been aggressive with her) He is neutered I’d say 75ish lbs The biggest lover boy and he’s a good dog. I would LOVE to give him to a loving home, and know he is taken care of. 💕😔
