Story
Let me introduce you to the wonderful dog named Cathy! Cathy is a social butterfly who loves to chat and interact with her human companions! 🐶💬 Cathy is a friendly and outgoing pup who gets along well with other dogs, making her the perfect playmate for your furry friends! 🐾🐶 However, she isn't a big fan of cats, so it's best to find a cat-free home for her. 😺❌🐾 She's also great on a leash and enjoys going for walks, exploring the world around her. Plus, Cathy is a loyal companion with good recall who loves to follow her person around and be part of the action! 🚶‍♀️🐾 Now, it's important to note that Cathy can get quite excited and may jump up when she's thrilled to see you. But with consistent training and a dedicated space, she has the potential to become calmer over time. 🙌🏼🏡 If you're looking for a dog who is dog-friendly, and ready to play, Cathy could be your perfect match! Get ready for endless adventures, loving companionship, and lots of tail wags with this enthusiastic and lovable pup! 🏡🐶❤️

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Meet Sugar! This sweetie came to us a few months ago as a local stray and after never being reclaimed, she has had her vet work all brought up-to-date. Upon her arrival at Safe Haven, it was evident that she was not feeling the greatest as several Safe Haven staff and volunteers were reporting continual diarrhea and vomiting in her kennel. When our veterinarian was able to examine Sugar, she knew something was not right - after further testing thru an ultrasound, it appeared that Sugar's intestines were not looking the way they should. After a several hour long "exploratory surgery", our veterinarian was able to come to the conclusion that Sugar had some serious infection going on along with previous infectious material within her intestines and her very enlarged spleen was not keeping up with fighting off present infection. After overcoming a very intrusive surgery, Sugar was started on a very strict and special diet along with several medications to help her continue to fight off any infection that was still present internally. After receiving 24/7 around the clock care - Sugar may have gotten a little spoiled with all the attention from many Safe Haven volunteers... she learned to love attention & affection very quickly! :) Fast forward about two months, Sugar is doing really well! She has completed her rounds of antibiotics and medications have been finished. She has worked her way towards a "normal" diet over the last several weeks and has been doing very well with this transition. Our veterinarian is ready for Sugar to be cleared and officially available for adoption!  Sugar would do best in a home as an only pet, as she does not get along well with other dogs nor cats. Once you're able to meet Sugar - you will know, Sugar is the only pet you will need to fill your heart! Sugar is a very strong and active girl - always on the go!! She would love an active family with many long walks in her future - a fenced yard would be wonderful for this active girl as well!  Interested in meeting or adopting Sugar? Please complete an online adoption application for her which can be found on our website at www.wesavepets.com. Once the application is submitted, a volunteer will be in contact with you shortly.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.November 4, 2024, 10:00 pm

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. 3/27/24 Update: Diego & Dora are a sibling-pair, very much bonded to one another. These two were adopted and found themselves a home in which they were well cared for for the past two years. Due to the change of living conditions and long working hours for their previous owner, they have been brought back to Safe Haven knowing that a well-suited home will be out there looking for them! Diego & Dora are quite the pair - they both have their own personalities, but compliment one another well. They enjoy their walks, and are both great on a leash. Since both are somewhat larger-sized dogs, a home with lots of room to explore and a yard to safely run and exercise would be great for these siblings. A fenced-in yard would be a huge bonus for them! Daily enrichment, exercise, and love (of course) are all part of their requests for their new home. Enrichment activities and daily exercise will not only help stimulant their busy minds, but will also help tire them out during "quiet time". Diego & Dora are looking for a home with no small pets - as they are both have a high prey drive that can be witnessed when seeing a rabbit, squirrels, and cats.    To ensure proper introductions, we would ask for an initial meet & greet to take place for any current dogs in a potential future home for these two. In order to set up a meet & greet, please complete an online adoption application found on our website at www.wesavepets.com. Once the application has been submitted a Safe Haven volunteer will be in contact to discuss the next steps.  Please read more below to learn about their initial arrival to Safe Haven in 2021: This wonderful sibling pair is looking for a new home together due to a disabling medical condition of their owner that left him unable to meet their needs. Dora and Diego were born on April 1, 2017. They are spayed/neutered, and up to date on vaccinations,  Heartworm testing and monthly preventative, and have been boarded at a local facility that gives them glowing reviews.  Dora and Diego are great dogs that enjoy meeting new people, even kiddos!  They also have been enjoying long walks by a local dog walker, who also takes them to the dog park.  They do get along with certain other dogs, but not all dogs, because Dora was once attacked by another dog.  So dog introductions need to be done carefully since they can understandly be a bit selective in their canine friends.   Their family also reports that Dora and Diego need a new home without cats, because both dogs do have a very high prey drive that is witnessed when they see a rabbit or squirrel - so their ideal home will not have any small pets.  Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.November 4, 2024, 10:00 pm
