Story
Hi I`m Lizzy, and I am here to tell you all about Me!I came into the shelter as a stray in Feb 2024. Even though no one came for me, I think I still have a lot of love and life to give and hope someone will give a chance to show it. I have struggled adjusting to shelter life, but thanks to some of my human friends I am starting to get the hang of things. I even got to be in a foster home for a whole month where I learned soooo much! I can be a little nervous in new environments, but once I get comfortable I am able to enjoy my surroundings. In foster I learned where to go potty (apparently its not inside the house, who knew?!) and how nice it is to have a comfy couch to snuggle up on. Walks are so much fun, but I am still perfecting my leash walking skills so please be patient with me. I can get excited when I see other dogs or people, but my human friends are teaching me that treats are way more fun than anything else going on around me. Speaking of other dogs, I have made some doggie friends at the shelter and have started expanding my friend group. My play style isnt for everyone, so if you already have a dog, bring them in so we can so how our vibes mix. You should also know that I am a fetch enthusiast, a pro at sit, know the place command, and have started learning so many other things. I dont want to brag, but I am pretty smart. Please come on down and meet me, I am so ready to fill your life with fun and love.

Story
This affectionate gentleman is part of a bonded pair with Olsa, who is most likely his daughter. They were left behind when the family moved away, and found themselves in our shelter, sad and confused. But they have each other and that seems to make all the difference!Falcon is about nine years old and about 55 pounds. He is a sweet gentle soul who doesn’t wanna cause any trouble and does want to show his love and appreciation. He loves going on walks around the neighborhood but otherwise is just happy to hang out. The two of them are so easy that anybody who wants dogs that make few demands but are good company would be lucky to have these two. They are crate trained and love going on car rides as well and of course they are housebroken. They do great with other dogs and seemed scared when they met a cat!Falcon is extremely shy when he first meets people so you need to give him a chance to warm up to you. But once he does, he will worship you and give you his absolute loyalty. They would be perfect for someone who just wants some dogs to hang around with that don’t require much.

Story
* NEEDS TO BE THE ONLY DOG IN HOUSEHOLD * Hi! My name is Sophie, I am a heeler mix, approximately 2 years old and about 40 lbs! I LOVE life and am overflowing with love! I am eager to please, smart and can be very funny- but most of all I want to give hugs and kisses more than anything! I am great with all humans, big or small. While I am working really hard not to jump, but I sometimes let my happiness get the best of me so it may be best not to be in a home with little ones that can topple over. I am crate trained and know a bunch of commands- sit, stay, shake, hit it (a bell), wait, come. I have great recall off-leash and can even recall on just a hand signal. I simply need to be the only dog in a home in order to thrive and be the best dog I can be! That being said, outside the house, I have been referred to as the queen of the dog park! I love meeting other dogs off-leash, big or small, for a fun game of chase! I can’t wait to meet you and go on some fun adventures!

Breed: Australian Cattle Dog X DOB: 11/2019 Gender: male Altered: yes Coat: medium Size: medium Color(s): black/brown/white Description: Hi, I'm Gunner, an outgoing Australian Cattle Dog X in need of a new home due to something they referred to as divorce and having to sell the home. I don't know what that all is, but I do know I need a new place to call home. I'm good with other dogs and cats too, but I may chase the cat because I want to play. I'm active and good with older children, but not with younger children. I enjoy chasing tennis balls and going for walks. I need people to go slowly with me, letting me settle into my new home. I can get overwhelmed with too much petting and attention all at once. If you have room in your heart and home for me, please fill out an application to meet me.December 28, 2024, 3:54 pm

Sweet Murray! This boy is a one year old tricolor Aussie, very striking looking and as loving as he is gorgeous. Not only is he handsome; he's also easygoing and loving. He's basically a big goofy older puppy. Murray plays really well with other dogs. He's also a lover with people. He's probably too rowdy for little kids. And we don't know how he is with cats. Murray is vaccinated, neutered, microchipped, and ready to be your best friend!
