Details

Story
Benji is around 1.5 years old and we believe he’s a Staffordshire mix. We found him a few months ago in terrible shape on our street. He has blossomed into an affectionate, loyal, and absolutely lovable dog. Benji is a natural snuggler—he loves to cozy up with his humans any chance he gets. He’s also incredibly well-behaved, a quick learner, sits on command, loves laying in the sunshine, and lives to make his people happy. He does great on car rides and has gone on many trips with us. His joy is contagious, and he loves with his whole heart. We believe that Benji, who has endured his own share of past trauma, is simply sensitive to loud barking, especially with out older male dog who is also reactive. Benji would do best in a one-dog household where he can be the center of attention and soak up all the love he deserves. If you’re looking for a loyal companion who will be your best friend or know someone who is, and can offer him a calm environment where he’ll be showered with love.

Story
We first met Hank 5 years ago at our local shelter. We were told at the time that he was 2 years old, making him 7 now. We instantly fell in love with his sweet face and goofy personality, and took him home that day to integrate with our other dog and three cats. While things went well for a while, eventually Hank started showing signs of stress with the cats and began to chase them or lunge at them occasionally. This problem persisted and we eventually decided to get Hank training to help curb his prey drive. While immensely helpful, the training did not fully stop his prey drive, and he still has moments where he will lunge at or try to attack our pets. My wife is now pregnant with our first child, and while we currently have time to supervise Hank's interaction with the pets, we know that we will not be able to with a newborn. We love our friendly boy so much but know that he needs to be in a solo pet environment, and want to find him a home where he can be happy and free.

Story
My name is Lola and I came to the shelter when my previous owners could no longer care for me. I was shy on intake, but did well with all the vet care I needed to recieve. My previous owners report that I love car rides, I am good with children and I also seem to get along well with other dogs, but as always it is recommended that I have slow and monitored introductions between any people or pets already in the home over a period of time. I would also benefit from a home without any small animals or livestock as I do not do well with them, so please keep this in mind when considering me for adoption. Come meet me today!

Story
We adopted Jordan as a puppy from a rescue agency at the end of 2021. He was born in the rescue and spent his first few months of life in loving foster homes. He is now 3 years old. He has a lot of character with ears that are floppy at the tips and a beautiful brindle coat. He has short legs but he loves to use them. He loves to have fun and run. He likes to play, to be pet, and to be a good boy. He really is a great dog. Our challenge with him is that we haven’t been able to give him the attention/exercise he needs since our youngest child was born. He is increasingly doing things suggesting he needs more than what we can offer such as darting out of the house and being slow to come back. Jordan needs a family who can give him attention and a better schedule, to train him, and give him the activity he needs. We love Jordan, but we are recognizing that he is not as happy as he could be. He is a great dog and know he will make another family very happy.
