Story
NALA Female, spayed 2 years and 10 months old American Bulldog mix 60 lbs. Microchipped, up-to-date on core vaccines and takes monthly flea/tick/heartworm prevention Sweet Nala was surrendered to a noisy, scary shelter with her six 4-week old puppies and was bewildered over what, why and how.  We immediately came to their rescue and could only do that because an amazing foster family said YES to the call. Nala was the BEST mama to her puppies!  She loves playing fetch and tug-of-war and when playtime is over, she enjoys her quiet time snuggled up on her favorite chair.  She knows sit, paw and down. Nala loves giving kisses once she warms up to you and is gentle taking treats. She's very sweet towards kids, even toddlers and hasn't exhibited any resource guarding with people.  She doesn't seem to have much of a prey drive and has only shown mild curiousity towards her foster's chickens. She enjoys her toys, but doesn't destroy anything that's not hers. Nala successfully completed a board-and-train program where she learned how to relax in environments where there's a lot of activity like stores and cafe's and also to help her get over her discomfort around men that she doesn't know.  Her trainer has wonderful things to say about her temperament and will provide a complimentary one-on-one session to whoever adopts her.   New Foster Home Update:  Nala completed her board-and-train program with flying colors and is now settling into her foster home. Here's what her foster mom has to say about Nala.... Nala loves having her nightly spa wipe and coconut oil rub down before bed. We do this to help relieve her skin allergies. She loves jumping in bed with me, ensuring she is touching at least the smallest part of me. The best part of it all she does not snore so we can all sleep in peace. Nala loves her morning playtime in the yard playing with her balls, followed up by her morning training and small breakfast. She then takes her mid-morning nap followed up by her lunchtime yard play or a walk stopping for lots of sniffs along the way. Nala loves her after-work meal and play time of us spending hours playing ball and tug-of-war. Squeaky toys are her favorite toy to play with all day long. Nala will be a wonderful addition to a loving active person or family. She is eager to learn and to show you what she knows already with pride and excitement. Nala can easily fit right in with your daily routine. I will say, just have stock in heavy duty chew toys and balls because she will be ready to run, jump and play alone or with you.   Interested in adopting? Of course you are!

Story
CALVIN Male, neutered 1-1/2 years old American Bulldog mix 60 lbs. Microchipped, up-to-date on core vaccines and takes monthly flea/tick/heartworm prevention Needs a yard with a tall fence due to having a high prey drive. Calvin is an irresistibly charming snuggle bug with a penchant for frozen peanut butter kongs and tennis balls! His tastes are not confined to specific treats - he is a connoisseur of all. With a distinctive and endearing way of lying down, Calvin adds a touch of humor to everyday life. He has mastered the art of crate training and is well on his way to perfecting his leash etiquette. Calvin's strikingly handsome face, complimented by his sleek black and white fur, is simply impossible to resist. His active, playful nature is driven by his prey instincts, making him a perfect companion for a home with a fenced yard where he could happily chase tennis balls to his heart's content. If you are in search of a uniquely lovable, tennis-ball-chasing bundle of joy, then Calvin is just the canine companion you've been waiting for!   Interested in adopting? Of course, you are!

Story
Meet Maxwell, a charming in need of rescue. His journey with us began when he was surrendered by his previous owner, through no fault of his own. Maxwell boasts a delightful history of coexisting harmoniously with both children and dogs of all sizes. However, we recommend a child-free environment due to his tendency to be a tad jumpy and nervous, especially when encountering new people. Maxwell's previous family described him as a big, goofy, and immensely playful companion. Additionally, he has proven himself to be well-trained in both housebreaking and crate use. He's capable of peacefully free-roaming when left alone, with no adverse incidents. Despite his endearing qualities, Maxwell is currently experiencing a degree of unease in the shelter environment, away from the only family he's ever known. New faces and the presence of other dogs passing by his kennel have understandably heightened his anxiety. Our dedicated behavior team has devised a plan to place him in a quieter section of the shelter, although it is apparent that the current setting is less than ideal for this sensitive fellow. During his stay with us, Maxwell has gradually opened up, revealing the same lovable, goofy personality that endeared him to his previous owners. Yet, he remains cautious when meeting new people. In our care, he has engaged in playgroups and demonstrated positive interactions with other dogs, though he tends to prefer calmer canine companions, as those with high energy levels can sometimes overwhelm him. This endearing pup is longing for a safe and loving environment where he can thrive. __________________________________________________ If you are interested in adopting, please fill out an application and a representative will get back to you shortly to answer any questions you may have.
