Story
Winston is a 8 month old mini dachshund. Looking to re home due to visitors and other dogs being a big stressor to him. He prefers to only be around his close family and our other dog. He is not fully potty trained but will go outside when taken out. He has lots of energy and even more love to give. Would do best with an owner who does not travel much and does not have too many frequent visitors or different dogs visiting the home.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Becky is a 2 year old Rottweiler with a heart full of love and a tail that’s always wagging! After finding herself in an overcrowded shelter, Becky was rescued and has since blossomed in her foster home. Now, she’s ready to find her forever family! Becky is a classic velcro dog who adores her humans. Whether it’s snuggling up on the couch or playing a game of fetch (her absolute favorite!), she’s happiest when she’s by your side. Becky also loves to wrestle and run around the yard with her canine foster brothers. Her perfect day? Quality time with her people, play sessions, and plenty of cuddles. Becky has already mastered basic commands like “Sit,” “Down,” “Crate,” “Here,” and “Wait,” and she’s fully potty trained! She would do best with a family who enjoys training and can keep her mind and body active. Becky’s ideal home will have: An active family who can give her plenty of exercise and mental stimulation. A fenced yard where she can run and play safely. Fun and respectful canine siblings to wrestle and play with. Becky hasn’t lived with kids and cats, and her high prey drive makes a cat-free home a must. Becky is friendly, affectionate, and loves everyone she meets. The more she heals and settles, the more her bright and energetic personality shines. If you’re looking for a playful, loving companion who’s eager to be your best friend, Becky is ready to steal your heart.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Board Game puppiesTwister is one of eight adorable puppies who got the best start in life thanks to Doberman Underground! Their brave mom was found as a stray and taken to a shelter, where it was discovered she was pregnant. Thankfully, DU stepped in to ensure she had a safe place to deliver and raise her pups. While their mom appeared to be a purebred Doberman, DNA results revealed that she is actually a unique blend! Twister and her siblings are a mix of several wonderful breeds, including Doberman, American Pitbull Terrier, Australian Shepherd, Labrador Retriever, and Boxer. These pups are going to be big, cuddly dogs with loving personalities and lots of energy! Twister is a well-socialized, playful pup who will thrive in a home with a confident canine companion to help show the ropes. As a large-breed mix, she will need an experienced owner who understands the commitment of raising a big, energetic pup. At this young age, she will adapt well to kids and cats with proper introductions. Training is a must to help Twister grow into a well-mannered adult, so be sure you have the time and dedication for a growing puppy. A spay/neuter contract is required.
