Story
Meet Willow – A Gentle Giant with a Heart of Gold Willow is a stunning 1-year-old female Great Dane who came to us from CACC. With her striking coloring and soulful eyes, this sweet girl turns heads wherever she goes—but it’s her gentle spirit that truly makes her special. Willow is still learning that the world can be a safe and loving place. She’ll need a patient, understanding family who can give her the extra TLC she deserves as she adjusts to her new life. But once she feels at home, her true personality will shine—revealing a playful, affectionate, and deeply devoted companion. Despite her size, Willow has a soft and sensitive nature. She thrives on kindness and will repay her forever family with endless love, loyalty, and quiet moments of connection. She’s ready to leave her past behind and step into a future filled with comfort, stability, and all the cuddles she can get. If you’ve got room in your heart (and on your couch), Willow just might be the angel you’ve been waiting for. Come meet her today—she’s ready to start her next chapter.

Story
Bronson was not well socialized when young and is a little timid. He will need a family dedicated to letting him know that life is ok, and it is ok to explore and not stay in one small area. He seems to do well with other dogs! All Pet Central animals are up to date on age-appropriate vaccinations, spayed or neutered, microchipped (registration included), and current on parasite prevention. Dogs over six-months of age are heartworm tested. When adopting, we will ensure that you receive copies of veterinary and microchip records. If you are interested in this pet, please fill out the brief Adopter Survey by hitting "Apply for Adoption" on the profile. After we review your completed survey we will contact you by phone or email within three business days. We're primarily a volunteer organization, so we appreciate your patience. Please note- Out of respect for our volunteers and staff, we are closed on Sundays and Mondays and will not be processing any applications on that day. Do get back to us right away when we call or email regarding an application so that we can quickly connect using the process below: Select a pet and submit an online adoption survey. A PCH adoption counselor will contact potential adopters within three business days (PCH cannot guarantee any pet's availability, but we make every effort to accommodate adopters with a reply and possible alternative suggestions). Counselor and client will then have a conversation to answer questions, discuss any medical needs for the pet and determine the suitability of a match (if necessary, we may opt to put adopters in touch with foster parents). After a match is made, clients will be asked to sign our adoption agreement and pay the adoption fee online through our secure payment system *Please see our modified no-risk return policy. (below) The PCH adoption counselor will then set up a specific appointment time and location. Adopters should bring a pet carrier and leash to pick up. Adult pets will be wearing a collar. It is important that clients arrive on time, neither early nor late. If your adoption is scheduled at Pet Central Helps!: Upon arrival inside the Crossroads Center complex (360 Wylie Drive), look for the black Pet Central Helps! semi-trailer, which is right outside of our facility (Suite 720). Park in the parking lot and enter the facility. A PCH representative will greet you and show you to the adoption room. Your new pet will be handed to you. We will take a "Happy Adoption Day photo with your pet and family. If your adoption is scheduled at PetSmart: Park in the PetSmart Parking lot and enter the store. We will be set up just inside the store entrance. Let us know you are here to pick up your pet! A PCH representative will confirm your information and hand you your pet. We will take a "Happy Adoption Day photo with your pet and family. PCH supports a 21-day no-fault return policy in which adopters are given the opportunity to find a better match. If we are not able to provide advice/tools to keep a pet in the home we offer these options: Exchange for a pet that may be a better match** Receive a refund minus a $40 processing fee** With this approach, we can often turn mismatches into opportunities! Thank you, Pet Central Helps!

Story
Jordan is the sweetest most licky bundle of love. He is great with people and children. We adopted Jordan as a puppy in April 2024. He already had 2 surgeries to repair an umbilical hernia. August 2024, we noticed that his front legs looked a bit odd. He was diagnosed with carpal valgus. He had one surgery to repair both legs. The fix on the left worked great, but we had to repeat the surgery on the right. Unfortunately, it still didn't work, so we started giving him Dasuquin with his breakfast and started Adequan shots. In January 2025, he had surgery to remove a toy he swallowed that got stuck in his intestine. He was hospitalized for three days. When he came back home, he no longer trusts; our two senior dogs. He's been resource guarding toys, places and people from them. He's gone through all of this and is still completely wonderful with our family and friends. We would absolutely love to keep him, but we have to consider what's best for all three dogs.
