Story
Sweet Titus is sibling to Romeo. He was abandoned at our storage facility and we were lucky to find him. He was sick with parvo. We nursed him thru and he has become a hunk of love. He is well behaved and gentle, but very shy and shut down with new people. This will just take time to overcome. No cats. No little kids. But 8 and up ok. Rides well in a car and loves to get a pup cup.

Story
Sweet Penelope is a little distant from most humans, (we think she was abused) but not aggressive at all. However she ADORES other dogs. She is living her best life if she has another dog to play with and live with. She needs an adopter who understands that she will never likely be a very demonstrative dog with her human family, but will love and accept her as she is. She does let you pet her, she is just not very needy at all. She is crate trained, and housebroken. She is spayed, up to date on all vaccines and microchipped.

Story
Percy is 5 years old, Ive had him since he was 8 weeks old. He's a sweet, talkative, goofy cuddle bug. He also however likes his personal space and alone time, he will let you know. He loves his lamb chops and treat toys. He's a runner, he'll beat you every time. It takes him a minute to warm up to new people but a few treats will do the trick. He's not fond of car rides, loud noises, or the rain. But he gives a mean high five, knows basic commands and is kennel & house trained. He does have a medical issue that requires medication. He has food aggression and separation anxiety. A bite history that is related to his personal space issue and food aggression. He will need a single person or a couple household with no kids or other pets. He needs someone who has experience working with dogs that have behavioral issues. A person with lots of time, the space and patience to work with him. Unfortunately my living situation changed and I cannot bring him with me.

Story
This sweet and goofy girl needs a home. She is a senior dog who has been at the shelter for over two years. She is looked at and considered frequently, but she is ultimately passed on. Molly loves her humans. She has been around children here at the shelter and adores them. She loves all adults. But Molly needs to be the only dog in a home that has no cats. Or farm animals. She does not get along well with other dogs and she does not seem to like cats...she has a high interest in them. But with humans she is, despite her age, still very playful, still very goofy. She will get excited and run zoomies all around you. She loves to play fetch. She can be a bit intense, she brings her A game to every encounter. But with the right family, she would be a great dog. Her best home would be with a fairly active adults or adult. She would like a good walk each day or some play time. She was housebroken when she was brought into the shelter. She likely still is, but we don't keep them indoors, but in indoor outdoor runs. She does use only her outside area, so we think she is likely still housebroken. If not, it would not be hard to bring her back up to speed. Older kids would be okay, but not smaller ones. Molly does play intensely so she may be too much for a child to handle. Most of her play energy diminishes after a few minutes of hard play, but still, she may jump into or run over a small child in her zeal, so we think children 12 and up would be recommended for her. As a senior dog, she does come with an adoption discount. She is spayed, up to date on all vaccines, and microchipped. HW free.

Story
Raven is a great dog. She is big and she loves to run. She is playful and a bit rambunctious, but overall a super dog for a pet. She will play ball and keep away with you. She is very energetic and her best home would be with someone who will take her for hikes or walks and let her run at home. She is good with kids, she plays with other dogs here at the shelter, and gets along fine. She is spayed, up to date on all vaccines

Story
Beautiful Daisy is a three year old mixed breed. Probably a little heeler, some pit, some akita in her. She is very well behaved, housebroken, she does like male dogs, but not other females. She is NOT good with cats. She is good with kids. She doesn't jump on you, she walks well on a lead, although she can, at times be stubborn and not want to go where you are leading. But in general, she is a great dog, well behaved. She can climb a 4 foot fence, so would need a home with a tall fence.
