Story
Meet Charlie! **ADOPTION FEE WAIVED** Intake date: 5/30/23 Intake type: Surrender DOB: 01/26/2021 Gender: Male Weight: 60 lbs Charlie is a sweet, wiggly, playful boy. He LOVES going for walks, but he’s also incredibly snuggly and affectionate. Charlie likes meeting new people and going on adventures where he can sniff around. Charlie would do best in a home without cats, dogs, or children due to some ongoing behavioral issues. We’re not sure what has happened in his past, as he first came to us as a stray, but Charlie has pretty bad separation anxiety. He does well at the shelter, but former adopters have had trouble with crate training and keeping him out of trouble. He is a strong dog who is very determined to be right at your side. Charlie has also developed issues with resource guarding as a result of his long stay here at the shelter. Any potential adopter would have to be committed to working with Charlie and invest their time into crate training and overcoming his anxiety. We have purchased a special crate for Charlie that will go with him upon adoption. We think the ideal home for Charlie would be one with a fenced-in yard and strong, active people who have time to help Charlie become the great dog he is inside. Charlie is up-to-date on vaccines, microchipped, and neutered. If you think you can give Charlie the best life possible, fill out an adoption application today!

Story
This is Aurora! Intake date: 03/06/2024 Intake type: Seizure DOB: 03/06/2022 Gender: Female Current weight: 44 lbs Aurora is a very nice but nervous dog. She is slow to warm up to new people, but once she trusts you she just wants to be at your side. She is eager to please and loves getting attention. Aurora does seem to suffer from a bit of separation anxiety and would appreciate a family where her people are home for most of the day. Aurora would do best in a home where she is the only dog. She gets along well with the other dogs she was seized with, but does not seem to like any other dogs. She has not been cat-tested but can be upon request. Aurora would do best in a home with older children (12+) who respect her space and needs. Aurora’s leash manners could use some work and she is mostly housetrained. Aurora is spayed, microchipped, and up-to-date on vaccines. If you are interested in Aurora, apply today!
