Story
He might be a dog, but Barkson is looking to bring his handsome, his energy and his fun and playful bark to a family where he can take up the role of a fur-son! Hence, his perfect fitting name. Barkson is a retriever mix who has a stunning golden coat. He weighs about 29 lbs now but he has room to grow! This young man is all energy all the time and is both super active as well as super curious and yet still a little shy and unsure of lots of things he has never yet seen. Barkson does wonderfully with other dogs and would love a playmate for sure! He is smart and loves good so would be a great training candidate to learn everything you want him to know about living in a home and being the invaluable family member he cannot help but become. This ball of energy wrapped in a golden coloring cannot wait to meet you!

Story
Bertha was such a great house guest.  I'm sure life hasn't been easy for her, but she doesn't let that stop her from trusting and loving people.  She has great house manners, no accidents and she had no interest in stealing slippers or destroying anything.   She did great with all the new foster dogs that came in during her stay.  In the house she will follow you around and the minute you stop to take a break she is nudging you for some pets and love.  Outside, she just loves to sniff and wander in the yard.  When she finds a nice cool spot, she will roll around and then settle in and watch the world go by.  Every now and then she gets a burst of energy when she spots a squirrel in the yard.  She is great out of the crate at nights and loves to curl up on any and all comfy dog beds.  She never tried to get up on the couch or bed.  She wouldn't get in the car, so I had to lift her.  She seems to be okay in the car, I think it's just getting up into it.   She is starting to get hard of hearing, but that happens to all of us in our senior years.  She likes to go on walks, but she likes to mosey and smell the flowers. If ever there was a lady who deserved to be someone's baby, it IS Bertha! She is simply lovely. A nice medium energy level, she wanders around the grounds, shares space easily with all of the other dogs, visits with people and is just enjoys the fresh air and scenery. She would settle well into most any home, enjoy anywhere from 1 to 10 plus people and not demand a whole lot. She is very social, very comfortable in her own skin and VERY ready to be spoiled from here on out! From leisurely strolls to trips to the brewery, she is ready for the bougie lifestyle of a family member ASAP! *Sleepover feedback: " Did great at night, slept soundly in her crate and outside of it curled up on the dog bed. She really will follow you all over the house, just wants to be with you; so gotta keep that bathroom door closed or she'll plop down next to you saying, "where are my pets???". But really she did super well. She really shows she's ready to be loved constantly and deeply, because that's what you will get in return, a tail-wagging, smiling, loving good girl".

Story
Meet Redner!! With his red and tan soft, wavy, perfectly tousled fluff, a plush tail and an expression that says “let’s be friends!” this 37 pound boy looks like he stepped straight out of story book. But it’s his personality that truly shines. He’s a very happy boy — the kind whose tail seems to wag with his whole body — and he brings a bright, joyful energy into every room he enters. This fluffy guy has plenty of pep in his step. He loves to move, explore, play, and join in on whatever fun is happening. Walks, yard time, little adventures — he’s all in, every time. And while he’s full of life, he’s also deeply people‑oriented. His favorite place in the world is simply with his humans, whether that means trotting beside you or curling up close when the day winds down. He’s the perfect blend of spirited and sweet: energetic enough to keep you smiling, affectionate enough to make you feel loved, and loyal enough to want to be part of everything you do. Redner is looking for a home with active people who include him in daily life — someone who enjoys walks, playtime, and cozy evenings together. A yard is a bonus but not required; what matters most is time, attention, and consistent, loving leadership. If you want a companion who will greet you with joy, keep you moving, and curl up beside you at the end of the day, he’s ready to make your home is happy place.
