Story
Bruno is a playful and energetic 5 year old rat terrier mix. His favorite game is fetch, but he never knows how to return his toys back to you. He likes sunbathing, can be a bit mischievous outdoors, and never likes to go back into the house unless he hears his toys squeaking or food being offered. He can be a little overprotective and needs supervision when people are over, but overall he does warm up easily to people he sees repetitively. In his new home, I hope someone can take him out on more frequent walks/dog parks, tend to his playful attitude during the day and cuddle him during the rainy nights.

My name is Honey and I am just as sweet as I sound. I am a very active young pup that needs lots of exercise and enrichment. I love to run and play with my fur friends at the shelter when the Animal Control Officer lets us have play time. I absolutely love to play in water.

Story
Sugar Cane here! I'm a nearly 2-year-old, 55-pound Pitbull brimming with energy and affection. I adore humans, especially kids, and get along with dogs of all sizes—I even have a 10-pound Chihuahua best friend! I’m generally okay with cats, though I need patience and training around them. I’m quite prey-driven, so I require supervision with smaller pets like chickens. My love for jumping and dislike of being alone outside make me an escape artist with short fences. I’m incredibly well-behaved on walks and absolutely love jogs and runs. I've mastered crate and house training, though I might have the occasional indoor accident. I thrive in an active, loving home where I can be both a playmate and a loyal companion. Will you be my FUR-ever Home?

Hi there! I’m Tonka, a shy and skittish black lab mix with a heart that’s ready to love. I’m between 1 and 2 years old, and I’m still learning to trust the world around me.

I’m looking for a special person who can help me build my confidence and help me feel safe and happy. If you’ve got a warm heart and a bit of patience, I’d love to be your loyal companion. Let’s take this journey together!
