Story
Snoopy is an older dog, 14 years old. Vet said aside from bad teeth he’s in really good health. He would do great in a home where he is the only dog, cats ok. Maybe an older person or a family with no kids. We have 2 small children and he does not particularly care for them. He has never bite anyone just doesn’t like to be bothered. He likes to lay around and sleep. Doesn’t do a whole lot anymore. Our situation has changed and we can no longer keep him due to us having to move.

Story
We'd like to re-introduce you to Winnie, a remarkable dog who's come a long way since we last introduced her a few months ago. If you remember she rescued by a Good Samaritan and had an an iliac fracture and MAJOR ear troubles. Thanks to the unwavering support of our incredible community, we were able to provide her with the necessary medical care, granting her the gift of a pain-free life through total ear canal ablation surgery she needed. Now, the time has come for us to find Winnie her forever home. At around 5-6 years old, Winnie is not just any dog; she's a TOTAL SWEETHEART! She has been living with a foster and has shown great compatibility with their other large dog, Scottie. Day by day, she's making huge strides in meeting new people. Instead of being terrified, she now greets strangers with excitement. Her transformation is nothing short of inspiring. Winnie does reasonably well around cats but may need some separation when left alone. She's learning to understand them, but she’s not aggressive towards them. When it comes to children, we believe she would thrive best in a home with older kids, as her playfulness can be exuberant, akin to a bull in a China shop. She also can be a bit mouthy when she wants attention, but it’s more gentle and nothing major. For Winnie, a fenced-in yard would be ideal, she would thrive in an active home and one that can continue nurturing her newfound confidence. Is that with you? If you are interested in potentially meeting Winnie, send us a message!

Story
Our hearts ache as we post this about our beloved Marnie. She's was on a journey for over a year, searching for that one special place to call her forever home. Marnie is once again embarking on the quest for her forever home, as her last stop turned out to be less than ideal, and our foster homes are full with other animals in need. What Marnie truly longs for is the companionship of another playful medium to large canine buddy. She truly comes alive when she's surrounded by her fellow four-legged pals who match her enthusiasm and energy. Marnie's zest for life is infectious, and having a playmate to share adventures with is nothing short of a dream for her. Of course, Marnie isn't without her quirks. She could use a little assistance with her leash manners, but with the right touch of patience, understanding, and training, this hurdle can be overcome. A fenced-in yard would be an incredible hope for her new home, granting her the freedom to frolic and run whenever she wants! Marnie is a bundle of warmth, cuddles, and affection. Her heart brims with love waiting to be shared. Marnie deserves a chance to find a family that will cherish and adore her. PLEASE SHARE TO HELP Marnie find her forever home. If you're captivated by Marnie's spirit and wish to offer her the love and care she deserves, please send us a message.

Hey there, fabulous humans! It's your gal, Bernadette, but you can call me Bern or even Freckles – I've got more nicknames than treats in a jar, and I love 'em all, especially when they come with compliments about my stunning looks. So, here's the scoop: I strutted into this shelter a few moons ago after being found at a local park. The guess is I was dumped there, but hey, no hard feelings – I'm ready for a fresh start! Now, let me tell you, when I first landed here, I was a bundle of nerves. Can you blame me? New place, new faces, but thanks to some awesome volunteers, I improve everyday. They discovered my love for a sprawling yard, I definitely need a fenced in yard, because this gal needs space to run, zoom around, and soak up the glorious sunshine. Snow, you say? Bring it on! I've got a feeling I'll be a snowflake-catching extraordinaire. Sure, I'm on the high-energy side, and yeah, I might flex those muscles a bit, but give me a few minutes, and I remember my leash manners. I'm thinking an active, young-at-heart household (no super young children) is my jam – you know, where the adventures never stop. Now, I do have a tiny confession: I'm a bit picky with my canine companions, so I'm dreaming of a forever home where I'm the solo pet, soaking up all the love. I'm 2-3 years young, and I've got a lot to learn, but I'm a quick study. I need someone who speaks dog and can help me polish my manners. Once the zoomies are out of my system, I transform into a cuddle connoisseur. Picture this: me snuggled up next to you, enjoying the cozy vibes, maybe with a peanut butter licky mat in paw – perfection! I'm ready to ditch the shelter life and move into my own fabulous forever home. Are you the awesome human who'll make my dreams come true? Let's make it happen!

Story
Allow us to introduce you to Paisley, a delightful sweetheart in search of her forever home. She came to us from a hoarding situation, but those days are behind her and she’s ready for the next chapter! Paisley's was a previous mama, but it’s evident by her nurturing nature, especially once she warms up to you. While initially reserved, particularly around men, she quickly becomes a cuddly companion once she feels comfortable. Whether she's by your side exploring or basking in the warmth of the sun, Paisley thrives on companionship and loves to soak up the sunshine. She's already mastered sitting and is eagerly learning to lay down, especially when there are treats involved—her favorite being peanut butter and hot dog pieces. This affectionate gal adores snuggling up in big comforters and revels in belly rubs. Having lived with other dogs, Paisley shows positive interest in equally laid-back companions, particularly males. At around three years old, she's a charming mix of Rott/Pit, and while she prefers a quiet home environment, she still enjoys staying active. A securely fenced yard is a must, as Paisley we think can be a slight escape artist. She would thrive with someone strong and active enough to go on neighborhood strolls though. With her endearing charm and sweet nature, Paisley is simply waiting for the right forever home to call her own. Could that be with you? If you are interested in meeting Paisley, send us a message!

Story
We are beyond excited to introduce you to our newest adoptable, Mr. Goodbar! This delightful young fella, just under a year old, is ready to fill your life with endless joy and love. Mr. Goodbar came into our care after a rough start, found tied up to a gas meter, skunked, and painfully skinny. But despite his tough beginning, his spirit soared the moment he saw us! With a wagging tail and a heart full of puppy energy, he transformed into the happiest boy, eager to shower everyone with love and affection. This sweet boy may not have the best manners yet, but don't let that fool you! Mr. Goodbar is a quick learner who is eager to please. With a little patience and consistent training, we are confident he will blossom into the perfect companion. His favorite pastime? Toys, toys, and more toys! He absolutely LOVES playing with chuck-it balls. Whether he's chasing them down or crashing into your lap for kisses and cuddles, his playful spirit is infectious. To help him continue his journey to becoming the best dog he can be, Mr. Goodbar would thrive in a home with a fenced yard where he can explore and satisfy his curiosity safely. He adores his peanut butter licky mats and ice cream cups, making treat time a joyous occasion for all. While we're not entirely sure how he does with other dogs, we're always open to arranging a meet-and-greet to see how he interacts with your furry friend. If you're an active person looking for a loving, playful companion, Mr. Goodbar might just be your perfect match. Contact us to schedule a visit and see if Mr. Goodbar is the one for you!
