Story
Jackie O was picked up stray by a city animal control facility and has been there since 10/23/25. (AAA is helping get her info out so she can find the home she deserves). She is patiently waiting for her ticket out. She is a charismatic and highly social gal who has been to many adoption events and attracted tons of attention but still hasn't had any takers... She is extremely playful and we recently figured out at an event that she is a doll with kids!

Story
This sweet girl has the kind of face that stops people in their tracks. From gorgeous ruby-colored eyes and those big floppy ears that somehow make her look both wise and completely adorable at the same time. Ember Honey has an easygoing personality and the kind of presence that just makes life feel a little nicer. She’s the type of dog who simply enjoys being part of your day, happy to keep you company and quietly settle in beside you while you go about your routine. Ember has that steady, companion-type energy that makes her such a comforting and wonderful dog to share life with. Watch her video and fall in love with this stunning girl: https://youtu.be/uPiK9ihcoUs?si=kmLpxQE4HSNCEKRy Ember Honey is believed to be a German Shepherd mix approximately 1 year old and currently weighs 47 lbs. She is a rescue dog and with any rescue, it’s always a mystery and we cannot guarantee breed or age. Ember is dog friendly and has done well with the dogs she has met so far. She’s more of a relaxed “let’s hang out and enjoy the sunshine” kind of girl rather than the type who needs to be wrestling or playing chase all day long. She enjoys spending time outside exploring all the interesting smells in the yard and simply being in the presence of other dogs. When meeting new doggy friends, Ember prefers a gentle introduction and a little time to get comfortable, she’s the type who likes to get to know her friends first before jumping right into things. Once she feels at ease, she’s happy to share the space and enjoy calm companionship. In a home, Ember would likely do best with another easygoing dog who has a similarly relaxed personality and appreciates a laid-back lifestyle. That said, she also absolutely loves people and would be perfectly happy soaking up all the attention as your one-and-only little princess. When it comes to training, Ember loves treats and is eager to please. She already knows how to sit, give paw, down, walks nicely on a leash, is comfortable in her crate, and from everything we’ve seen she has wonderful house manners. She has a calm, balanced energy that makes her a fantastic companion for someone who works from home or simply wants a companion to enjoy strolls around the neighborhood. Ember will happily lounge nearby while you go about your day, occasionally stopping by for a little affection and reminding you it’s time for a cuddle break or when it’s time to get some vitamin D. One of the best things about Ember is how adaptable she is. She could do beautifully in a home with a backyard where she can sniff around and enjoy the sunshine, but she could also thrive in a condo or apartment with regular walks and quality time with her people. She’s not a high-maintenance pup, a nice walk around the neighborhood, some fresh air, and plenty of snuggles will make her perfectly content. We can easily picture Ember relaxing beside you on the porch during those warm summer evenings while you enjoy a good book or simply take in the quiet moments together. We have not yet seen Ember interact with young children, but we would be happy to test that for you. Based on the incredibly sweet, gentle, and loving personality she has shown so far, we believe she has the potential to be a wonderful family dog. Ember truly has the kind of heart that just wants to love and be loved. If you’re looking for a loyal companion who will fill your home with warmth, snuggles, and quiet happiness, Ember is ready to light up your life. We are willing to test Ember Honey with anything you need in order to ensure it's a perfect match. We can make anything happen! Just let us know. Ready to welcome a new furry friend into your life?

Story
If you’ve been searching for a certified good boy, allow us to introduce Barney Delight. This happy boy has the kind of personality that makes people instantly fall for him. His favorite things in life are simple: being close to his people, wagging his adorable wiggle butt, playing with toys, and happily tagging along for whatever the day has in store. With his easygoing, go-with-the-flow personality, Barney is the kind of dog who effortlessly fits into your life and quickly becomes your favorite part of every day. Watch his video and fall in love with his personality: https://youtu.be/FcIpL9GOVes?si=kK09H0V-L4VlqqJD Barney Delight is believed to be a German Shepherd/lab mix approximately 2 years old and currently weighs 45 lbs. He is a rescue dog and with any rescue, it’s always a mystery and we cannot guarantee breed or age. Barney is happiest when he’s near his humans, quietly keeping you company, following you from room to room, or settling in beside you for some well-earned couch time. He’s affectionate, mellow without being boring, and just the kind of dog who makes everyday life feel a little warmer. Between his sweet nature, that irresistible wiggle butt, and his all-around good-boy personality, Barney is the kind of dog who quickly becomes the best part of your day. Doesn't he already sound amazing?! Well wait, there's more! Barney loves treats, is super smart already knowing a few basic commands such as sit and shake, and is crate and potty trained as well and he knows how to use a doggy door. He'll be a great companion for someone who enjoys going on adventures and for someone looking for a snuggly pal at the end of the day. He is the perfect mixture of both. Barney loves to be outside and he would absolutely love it for his forever home to have a nice big backyard for him to roam and relax in the sun. Barney is dog friendly and did great meeting all of the dogs we introduced him to. Barney met a handful of dogs all with different personalities. He is also fostered in a home with other large dogs and they do great together. Barney loves to play, enjoys games of tag your it and will also engage in gentle wrestling matches. He knows when it’s time to take a play break and appreciates those relaxing moments as well. In a home, Barney’s best match would be another dog that enjoys the company of other dogs, likes to play and also appreciates those calmer moments as well. If you don't have another dog, that is totally fine with Barney! He does not need the company of another dog to help him feel comfortable and open up. He is more people-oriented and loves affection so much that he would be just as happy being your one and only and the center of your world. Barney isn’t just looking for a home, he’s looking for his person. The one who’s ready for a steady, loyal companion who will greet you with a wagging tail, settle in beside you after a long day, and quietly become the best decision you’ve ever made. He’s the kind of dog who doesn’t need to be flashy to stand out. His goodness speaks for itself. If you’ve been waiting for that easygoing, well-mannered, dog-friendly boy who feels like he’s always been yours… this is your sign. Barney is ready to start his forever chapter, all he needs now is you. We are willing to test Barney Delight with anything you need in order to ensure it's a perfect match. We can make anything happen! Just let us know. Ready to welcome a new furry friend into your life?

Story
Meet Gracie – the little sweetheart who seems to have already mastered the art of being the perfect puppy. At just around three months old, Gracie is the kind of dog who makes people instantly smile the moment they meet her. She has the sweetest, gentlest personality and such a calm, loving way about her that you can’t help but fall in love. Some puppies are wild and chaotic, but Gracie has this wonderful balance where she can be playful and happy, and then happily settle down right next to you for cuddles. She truly has the kind of personality that makes life with a puppy feel extra special. Watch her YouTube video now https://youtu.be/lJ_yKTmHSII?si=-z-BdOc05DMAXSgv Gracie is currently living in a foster home with multiple other animals, and she is absolutely thriving. She has been doing such a wonderful job adjusting to home life and learning all about the world around her. She gets along beautifully with everyone she meets and seems to genuinely enjoy being around both people and other animals. She’s the kind of puppy who fits right in, happily joining whatever is going on—whether that’s playtime with furry friends or relaxing near her people. One of the best things about Gracie is just how sweet and gentle she is. She has such a soft, loving personality and is always happy to be close to someone who will give her pets and attention. When you spend time with her, you’ll quickly notice how affectionate she is. She loves being cuddled, being held, and just being near her humans. She has that special puppy charm where she can look up at you with those sweet eyes and instantly melt your heart. But don’t let her calm, loving nature fool you—Gracie still has that happy puppy spirit! She loves to play, explore, and enjoy all the fun things that come with being a young pup. Whether it’s playing with toys, bouncing around with her animal friends, or just happily following her people around, Gracie brings a little spark of joy wherever she goes. She’s curious about the world but approaches everything with such a sweet and easygoing attitude. Another thing people immediately notice about Gracie is her perfect little size. She’s the kind of puppy who feels just right when you pick her up and hold her close. Not too big, not too tiny—just the perfect little bundle of puppy sweetness. She fits beautifully into your arms and seems perfectly content to relax there while soaking up all the love she can get. Her foster home reports that she has been doing amazing. She’s learning, growing, and showing every day just what a wonderful companion she’s going to be. Puppies are always learning, of course, but Gracie has already shown that she has a great temperament and a natural ability to adapt and do well in a home environment. She’s the kind of puppy who seems eager to be part of the family and join in on everyday life. Gracie would likely be happy in many different kinds of homes. She could thrive with a family, with someone who already has other pets, or with someone who simply wants a sweet little best friend to share their days with. She has such a friendly, loving personality that she brings warmth and happiness wherever she goes. Whether it’s playtime, cuddle time, or just quietly hanging out together, Gracie is simply happy to be part of it. Most of all, Gracie is just a really, really wonderful puppy. The kind that people dream about finding. Sweet, gentle, playful, cuddly, and absolutely adorable—she truly has it all. The family who adopts her is going to gain not just a puppy, but a loyal companion and a little bundle of love who will grow up right by their side. Somewhere out there is the perfect family for this amazing girl, and when they meet her, they’ll understand immediately why everyone who knows Gracie says the same thing: she is such a special puppy. If you’re looking for a sweet, happy, loving little dog to grow up with your family and fill your home with joy, Gracie might just be the one you’ve been waiting for.

Story
This cutie is Leo. He is currently 4 months old and weighs approximately 19lbs. We think they may be a German Shepard/ Husky mix, but with rescue it’s a guess! What matters most is that they are adorable and are one the MOST desperate in the entire US based on statistics for where this puppy is from. Shelters in this area are having to euthanize puppies. So, this puppy needs you! If you choose a puppy from us, it saves their life as well as the life of another in its place. Watch Leo’s playful personality here: https://youtu.be/fDrjYA1CAjI?si=ygr2tYd5SlLCG-ko Leo is playful, sweet, curious, and cuddly. He loves to play with his siblings and take lots of naps. Eat, sleep, play, repeat- such is puppy life! We pride ourselves in being able to give you good personality and behavioral information to help ensure this baby is the right fit for you. You are also welcome to do a Facetime call to meet your new baby before signing paperwork! Leo is still very young and will need a family that can commit to training, socialization and all the dedication puppyhood requires. A puppy is discovering new things that shape their personalities with each passing day. Implementing routine, structure, setting boundaries, and proper socialization is key from the start. We require a commitment from adoptive families to crate train their new puppy starting immediately when arriving at their new home, which will help with potty training, energy management, and the overall development of a well-rounded adult dog. You will be guaranteed to get lots of kisses in return from your new best friend! Ready to welcome a new furry friend into your life?
