Story

Sadie is the sweetest girl; full of love, energy, and cuddles. We adopted her from the shelter in May, and she’s been wonderful with our son and our Chihuahua mix. Unfortunately, she and our larger dog just haven’t been able to get along, and despite our best efforts, we’ve decided it’s best to find her a new home where she can truly thrive. Sadie is housebroken, crate-trained, and great with kids and most other dogs; especially outside the home. She would do best in a home without large dogs or cats, but she loves playtime at the dog park and snuggling up after a fun day. She’s such a loving companion and deserves a family that can give her all the attention and peace she needs. Please let us know if you can give Sadie the forever home she deserves.

Story

Meet Mimi! 🐾 Mimi is a beautiful Lab Retriever Hound mix with the sweetest soul. She was rescued at just 2 months old in rough condition. We immediately took her to BAS for medical care, vaccinations, and exams, and instead of placing her in a shelter, we made it our mission to find her the forever home she truly deserves. Mimi has grown into an amazing dog she is house, crate, and potty trained. She’s loving, playful, and thrives as a family dog who enjoys companionship and affection. She brings joy wherever she goes and would make a wonderful addition to a home ready to give her the time, love, and stability she deserves. Due to our demanding work schedules and lifestyle, we always knew we wouldn’t be able to keep Mimi long-term, and after over a year of trying to find her the right home, we are hopeful this next step will finally lead her to her forever family. If you’re looking for a loyal, sweet, and ready-to-love companion, Mimi just might be your perfect match.

Quavo seems like a very happy dog. This 10 year old boy was adopted in 2016 but ended up back at the shelter as a stray. He is very low energy and loves to take naps outside. He seems good with other dogs, he really loves people, including children. Quavo really likes to get his head scratched and tummy rubbed. That will put a smile on his face! If you give him a chance we think you might find your perfect dog! ##1838602##

Details

Story

Charlie is currently 8 months old, born on July 31st 2025. He has no known allergies or genetic health predispositions. He is mixed between indoors and outdoors; he prefers the outdoors. Is house-trained with some accidents but loves to CHEW! He is a sock thief lol. Charlie is extremely hyper and enjoys outside adventures to the dog park, hiking, and the beach. He does need to be trained in heavily populated areas; he tends to bark aggressively, but does not exhibit biting behavior. Charlie has protective, loyal, and playful characteristics. Gets along with other dogs, but I do not recommend him around cats. ***Must have a fenced-in backyard with plenty of space for Charlie to run*** Shot record and DNA file can be provided upon request. A basic care package will be provided, including: a large dog cage, dog food, his favorite treats, and shampoo.
