Story
Shawnee loves food and will do tricks for treats! This guy is impossibly cuddly and loves to be wherever the people are -- so much so that he has quite a bit of confinement anxiety. He can be a bit timid and jumpy with new sounds and sights, but we imagine Shawnee hasn't see much of the world yet. Shawnee was found as a stray, so his history is a mystery. He is extremely motivated by food and should be very easy to teach. The best kind of home for Shawnee: Shawnee is anxious and could greatly benefit from obedience training and confidence building. We do not know if he has been around small children, but he tested well with cats. Shawnee does well with select dogs who do not retaliate when he gets a little overstimulated. He should, however, be fed separately because of the intensity of his food drive. He loves to play chase with other dogs, but sometimes he gets too excited. He needs the right dog companion to balance that excitement level or to be the only dog in the home.

Story
James Dean! Jimmy Dean! JD! The man with many names! This cutie has never met a stranger. He is always happy-go-lucky and ready to say hello! James Dean is wiggly, excitable, and full of puppy spunk. He loves toys, especially squeaky ones, and will do anything for food. JD came to us as a stray abandoned on the property, so we do not know much about his history. He is great on a leash and is looking forward to learning all he can with his forever family.  The best kind of home for James Dean: James Dean is a young, adaptable guy who should not have a hard time transitioning into home life at all. He is extremely sweet and affectionate, but he is full of puppy energy. He would LOVE someone who will play with him and guide him through the world. He tested well with cats, but may be a bit rough with them if not supervised. He is house trained and is rarely destructive if given proper outlets for his energy.

Story
Willow is brand new to rescue, so we are getting to know her. But we already know she is going to be so much fun for her future family. Willow loves people of all ages and previously played well with other dogs. She can be reactive on a leash and will need help learning leash manners. Willow loves to play and go for walks. Her favorite game is tug or fetch, and she will play with anyone willing! The best kind of home for Willow: Willow would do best in a home ready for an active dog. She loves to play and will need help learning to manage reactivity on a leash. Our behavior staff can help potential adopters with resources and ways to do just that. Willow is a very social, happy dog who will make a great adventure buddy!

Story
It breaks our hearts to write this, but we are looking to find the perfect home for our beloved dog, Oreo. He is a 2-year-old lab terrier mix who we adopted from a shelter a few months ago. From the moment we brought him home, we knew he was special – a truly gentle and loving soul. Oreo is the sweetest boy who adores the people he trusts. He gets along well with our cat and has never shown any signs of aggression, even when he’s afraid. However, Oreo struggles deeply with anxiety. He’s afraid of just about everything – loud noises, sudden movements, and even the car. Most of his time is spent hiding under the bed or in other safe spaces where he feels secure. We adore Oreo, and it’s clear that he has so much love to give, but it’s equally clear that we are not the right family to meet his needs. Oreo requires a patient and experienced home where he can have a calm, pred
