Story

This friend has just arrived because their owner could no longer keep them. While owners can provide some history on their pets, our medical and behavioral teams will still evaluate them. Dogs that have lived in homes previously typically have some training established, but we cannot guarantee that those behaviors will remain consistent in a new home environment. They are pending interactions with other animals at the shelter until they have been cleared by our vet. Our staff will spend some time getting to know them and we will update their bio with more information as we learn. If you are interested in adopting this dog, please submit an adoption questionnaire! Our adoption process is on a first-come, best-match basis and we are not able to hold animals. If you are interested in this specific dog but it ends up not being the best fit upon meeting, our adoption counselors will work with you to help find a match! All household members, including children and other dogs, must come along for the meeting to make sure it's a good fit. If a match is made, we encourage same-day adoptions! Our adoption fees include the animals' spay/neuter, microchip, age-appropriate vaccinations and preventatives, fecal testing, heartworm testing, and a small bag of food to get you started.

Story

This puppy has just arrived! They have come to us on transport from a shelter partner, were found as stray, or surrendered to our care by an owner. Puppies require a significant amount of structure, routine, time, patience, and training to learn how to behave properly in a home. The first few months of having a puppy is a critical time to establish boundaries and help your puppy understand what they can expect from you and what you expect from them. Remember, puppies aren’t born knowing how to live in a human’s world, it is up to you to teach them how to make good decisions in a positive and caring manner. The more positive interactions they have in their first year of life will set them up for better behavior in the future. If you are interested in adopting this dog, please submit an adoption questionnaire! Our adoption process is on a first-come, best-match basis and we are not able to hold animals. If you are interested in this specific dog but it ends up not being the best fit upon meeting, our adoption counselors will work with you to help find a match!

They came from a previously severely abusive home when they were pups & (2) are waiting for the perfect family to come along that must have previous experience with abused dogs. They are very sweet and gentle & love kind & tender attention. Cher is a very shy yet charming canine on a journey to find a patient parent(s) with a relaxed lifestyle. She's looking for someone who can offer gentle guidance to help her come out of her shell. If you treat her sweetly and kindly, she promises to blossom in your care. Meet Our Shy but Sweet Canine Duo - Lab/Chessie Sisters Sienna and Cherry, our Lab/Chessie sisters, have had a challenging start in life. They require a special family with personal experience in caring for abused dogs. These pups have unique needs stemming from their traumatic past, akin to post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Both Sienna and Cherry are on medication called Clonidine, which has significantly improved their well-being and is affordable at only $10 for 180 tablets from Walmart. Background Sienna and Cherry's journey began when they were rescued at the tender age of 5 months. They were starving and scared but have now transformed into beautiful and loving dogs under our care. Personality While initially shy, these sisters have charming personalities that shine through once they feel safe and loved. They yearn for an home that can provide patience and a relaxed lifestyle to help them fully recover from their past traumas. Requirements We are seeking a family with personal experience in caring for abused dogs. Sienna and Cherry need a family that understands their history and is committed to continuing their healing and trust-building journey.

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Please note: Our beautiful Joy does require a 6-foot wood or vinyl fence, no chain-link or split rail.

Go ahead, teach me anything. Sit, stay, and balance your checkbook, I can do it all. Keep me entertained and I’ll be yours forever. Joy lives up to her name as she is always joyful, so very happy that now she lives with people who love her & now she feels safe. She had litter after litter in WV & I would say her previous life was that of pure neglect. She is about young & about 60 lbs (she's gained 10 lbs since she joined the rescue) & I have her listed as a Lab/Antalion Sheperd mix. Her coat has so many shades of gold & yellow, she is really stunning, expecially in the sun! When it comes to people, she's indiscriminate with her affection. Joy doesn't believe in strangers, she's ready to shower everyone with love. I love how when you are close, she leans into you gently, offering a soulful gaze of absolute adoration. She is also very intelligent, it seems that when I look at her sometimes I can see her thinking! This tall, lanky and I think very regal looking young lady is a bundle of love wrapped in a desire for attention. With her keen senses, she thoroughly enjoys walks where she can indulge in the various scents around her. Her trust, which is quickly earned, is as solid as a rock, and with it, she's game to explore and try out anything. If you're looking for a loyal companion who looks at you like you're the center of her universe and is eager to be a part of every adventure, then Joy is the young girl for you! Don't miss a chance to make Joy a part of your family. Read our adoption requirements & if you can meet them you can apply for her right here at our website.

Story

*My adoption fee has been sponsored by a FFAS supporter!* Hi-ya! I'm Scrappy! Little, cute, and the best sidekick, just like my namesake! I came to the shelter when my family wasn't able to take care of me anymore and I must say - it's a big change from a cozy home to a shelter kennel. I'm one and a half years old and 49 pounds! I hope that my new family has a love for big, goofy boys, because that's what I'll be when I grow up! I love playing with other social and active dogs, so if you have a canine sibling, that would be ideal! I would love a patient family who is willing to help me learn all of my best boy manners as I grow up - could that be you? I would love to start the journey out of the shelter and into my true, forever, happily ever after! Have Room in Your Home? Welcoming in a pet saves your new pet's life and creates space for another pet to get a chance! Not sure if Scrappy would be the best fit for you? Send in a generic app! Our team will work with you to find a pet to best fit your lifestyle! You will go home with a starter bag of food, one month of flea and heartworm prevention, and also have 90 DAYS of training help included with your adoption, if needed!

Spayed or Neutered,

Story

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Silky (2yo and 59 lbs) is a charming Labradoodle and Hound mix who is ready to steal your heart! This adorable pup is not just super cute and cuddly, but also incredibly affectionate. Silky's favorite activity is snuggling up on the couch with his people, making him the perfect companion for cozy movie nights or lazy afternoons. While Silky loves his indoor cuddle sessions, he's also a big fan of the great outdoors. He enjoys running and romping around, and would really thrive playing fetch in a yard. He has made significant progress with his leash training. At first he was a big puller but after a few weeks of training, Silky now knows to check-in and will loop around and come back to the heel position if the leash is taut. He doesn't need to go on long treks but is happy to do so if you're up for it. Mostly, he loves sniffing around bushes and trees, taking in all the exciting scents. This intelligent boy is a fast learner and already knows several commands, including sit, down, paw, and go to bed. He's crate trained and sleeps soundly through the night in his crate. For Silky, the crate is his off switch—he knows it's time to nap when he goes inside. We are stilling working through some anxiety issues including barking when meeting new people/dogs, hearing noises, and separation anxiety. Silk is going to thrive with the right person could that be you?
