Story
HI HI HIIIII. My name is Maya! And I am one of the most energetic, lively, and fun doggos around town! I have energy for days, and don`t always know where to put it. Sometimes, I might even jump on you or jump up high and start trying to play with the leash or even you! I don`t mean any harm, I`m just a little nutty at times, so I definitely need a home familiar with high energy wild dogs that has the time to dedicate to my needs and will do the right training. I do well with other dog friends and would love to have a playful friend in the home, though I come on quite strong and have a very eager personality, so a dog that matches my craziness might be best. I`m not sure about cats but I`m willing to meet one, and I`d prefer older kiddos due to my crazy antics. I am very smart and love food. I love being a part of the fun and know my spunky personality will always keep things interesting in your life!Also you may have noticed i`m a `special paws` adoption, this is because I came to the shelter with a prior knee injury, it has since resolved but there is always a possibility this issue can reoccur in the future. So because of that, my adoption fee is up to you!

Story
Hello, I`m Luna. I`m a sweet, friendly girl who loves to show affection. My heart is as gentle as a butterfly, and I`m known for my cuddles. I`m also quite smart; I`ve been told I`m lovely on a leash. However, I do have a little trouble with my back legs, but that doesn`t stop me from being the loving, gentle soul I am. I believe that love isn`t about perfection, it`s about acceptance. I`m not perfect, but I promise to love you with all my heart. If you`re looking for a loyal, loving companion, I`m your girl. Give me a chance, and I`ll show you how much love I have to give. Since I have trouble with my back legs due to hip displaysia, i`m considered a special paws adoption. I will require regular vet care to help manage my condition. With that being said my adoption fee is up to you to choose!See Luna on Tiktok! https://tinyurl.com/yc42u8t4

Story
I`m really shy at first and quite nervous in new situations...if you happen to know Dobes then you know what I`m talking about (we`re just big babies). I tend to take some time to warm up and will need a very patient adopter who is willing to let me come out of my shell at my own pace.Once I know you, I`m a pretty fun guy. I LOVE affection and will lean into you for more and more pets. I love to go for walkies and smell ALL the amazing smells! I enjoy playing but also love a good cuddle on the couch too.Once upon a time, I used to be a farm dog. So I`ve lived with cats and dogs and a big family, but I didn`t always meet many people or experience city life. I am actually doing quite well here, and have made so many new human friends! But moving forward, I do need some further help and a hooman that will make sure they set me up for success. I do well with other doggos, but I can come on strong. I used to live with a doggo that wasn`t always nice to me, and sometimes we had a hard time sharing our things with each other, so a respectful but friendly dog friend would be best. I have lived with cats and like to play with them! I`m good with kiddos too, though, sometimes they can startle me. So older respectful, quieter teens might be better. Unfortunately for me, I have ear and skin issues. This means that I will likely have to be on meds for those things for the rest of my life. Luckily, the great people here have started to treat my ear and skin issues and I am starting to feel a whole lot better! So if you think you have the patience and can afford regular vet care with daily medications, then please apply to adopt me today. I swear I`m the sweetest boy and will make every day worth it!

Hello, I`m Bandit! I may be a senior, but don`t let that fool you. I`m as curious and playful as a pup. I love exploring and playing games, but my favorite thing is a good cuddle. I might seem a bit nervous at first, but give me a little time and I`ll warm right up to you. I`m not a fan of cats or apartment living, I need a bit more space to roam. What I really need is a forever home with someone who appreciates my sweet and friendly nature. Will you be my new best friend?

Hello helllllllllo! My name is Nyla! I am a super fun, bouncy, goofy, and energetic gal ready to rockkkkk and rollllllll and find my forever home! I am quite the character, and have energy for dayssss. I love to bounce around, get goofy and playful, and play with fun toys. I love people, treats, walks, other dogs, toys, you name it, I think everything is fun!! I need some help with training because I don`t always know how to mind my manners. I like to jump on the humans for attention, play with my mouth like a puppy (except I`m quite a big girl), and be nosey and find all the yummy treats and food I can find (but hey, you`ll have your own personal hoover vaccuum!)I need a home that will meet my high energy needs and help guide me to be the most successful girl around town! I am super duper food motivated and know I will add so much joy and fun into your life!

Story
Hi! My name is Ember. I`m a beautiful lady with a heart of gold. I`m really shy and submissive in new situations and with new people but my sister Ash really helps me to come out of my shell. I am said to be pretty outgoing and friendly once I settle into a place. I`ve lived with children and cats and been great with them (although I may chase a cat if it runs around!). I`m not super fond of dogs, they actually really scare me. So if you do have another dog friend, it should be a quiet and respectful one who will give me my space and time to warm up. I am known to bark (what cattle dog doesn`t) so I shouldn`t go to an apartment either.My sister Ash is pretty awesome so please take a look at her profile too so that you know what you are getting into when adopting us. One does not come without the other!See Ash and Ember on Tiktok! https://www.tiktok.com/@windsorhumane/video/7424533739096608005?is_from_webapp=1&sender_device=pc&web_id=7401177056811533830
