***In order to alleviate the need to bring an animal into the shelter environment, The Anti-Cruelty Society has the Home-to-Home Shelter Bypass service to help people find new accommodations for their pets privately. These animals are not located in any of the Society`s physical locations. If you are interested in adopting this animal, please do NOT click the Adopt Me button and instead reach out to the current owner directly via the email provided in the profile. As this is a Home-to-Home animal you are not required to fill out an Anti-Cruelty Society adoption application form.***Took a few weeks to get him out of his shell. The shelter shut him down a bit. Jett is a very friendly affectionate dog. he will want to be glued to you once you bond though! I think he will do best with another young dog that like to wrestle around because he lives for his dog park visits! I wasn`t allergic with my last dog years ago but I have some developed some allergies which is making it difficult for me to keep him.Please reach out to stevekoc@yahoo.com for more information.

He is high energy and chill in the evening. His birthday is 7/27/16, house trained and has never destroyed a thing at home. He gets anxiety with smaller kids if they are running or screaming inside of the house sometimes outside. He loves to sunbathe, walks and people. He has been okay with small dogs, he just needs to get walked first as an intro and he settles very well! He doesn’t like other dogs to try to be the alpha or jump on him. He has not bit another dog but just shows his teeth if others dogs try to jump on him.I believe he would do best in an adult home.Please reach out to araselig824@gmail.com for more information.

Story
Tabitha is a gentle giant who came to us after being abandoned in an apartment building. She was very shut down at the shelter so she went to a foster home where she has truly blossomed. Her foster has gave some great information - She is a calm, quiet lady and just likes to hang out in the house with you. She does not seem to mind other dogs and is becoming less fearful of new humans everyday! Tabitha knows sit and wait. She sits to get her leash on and gets so excited she does like a seal scoot it’s the cutest thing possible. She hasn’t really played with any toys but that may change as she becomes more comfortable. She loves to be rubbed and scratched and really enjoys car rides. Tabitha is truly so sweet and would make a great work from home companion. If you would like to meet Tabitha- please fill out an adoption form so we can set up a meet and greet while she is in foster!

Story
Everyone`s been going loco for Lupin! This young 50 pound Staffordshire Terrier mix was brought into our care as a stray. Poor Lou was found abandoned outside of a police station, and showed signs of living most of his puppy life in a crate. After a slow and steady dose of tender, love, and care at our facility, this guy has come out of his shell in a big way. Lupin is incredibly smart--he`s learned how to open doors, he loves to play brain games and learn new tricks, he`s house-trained, and he`s one of the most dog social guys we have in our facility. Lupin is not very interested in going on walks, but if you`re looking to play with a toy in the backyard, or snuggle on the couch inside (or play fun sniffing games! This guy loves to use his nose!) Lupin would be happy to make your acquaintance! If you`re interested in meeting Lupin, be sure to fill out our adoption questionnaire at animalcareleague.org.

Story
Please meet Addison! This older, beautiful lady came to us when her former guardian could unfortunately no longer care for him. We do not have much history on Addison, so she would love a furever human who is willing to be patient with her and take the time to learn her home behavior and not introduce too much to her too fast. What we have learned so far about Addison here in the shelter is that she is a super loving pup. Se can be shy at first but when you let her come to you and she feels comfortable she just wants LOTS of pets, scratches and hugs. If you`re interested in meeting Addison and other dogs like her, come on down to Anti-Cruelty today!

Story
Titan has been with me since a pup. He is in-tact and may have challenges with other males but otherwise is great with children, female dogs and puppies of both genders. He's a kind and friendly soul who is protective of his family. Loving, a great cuddler with lots of energy- Titan is a excellent family dog. We are expecting a new baby and caring for both will be a challenge. Looking for a caring home.
