Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Hi, I’m Duke! I am a charming, happy, Cattle Dog mix.  I love to go for walks  or runs  (and I am really good at it!). I also love car rides, stuffed animals, and playing in a fenced-in backyard. I am completely house trained,  crate trained ,  and am very intelligent. I know what sit, lay down , and stay mean, but I could use some more training to work on those commands and anything else you want to teach me.  I love to run and play; I have a whole lot of energy, but I also love to cuddle, give kisses and be loved by my human companion .  Basically, I just like to be doing what my people are.   I am very cautious of new people. I really prefer to come check you out first, and I really rather you don’t pet me until I know you will treat me with kindness.  I may  have to meet you a couple times before  I know I can trust you .   I can’t tell my friends at Last Hope what happened to me before I came to stay with them, but all they know is that it takes me a while to trust people and be comfortable in situations.  Because of this, I should not be in a home with young kids or teens.  My dream home would be with an adult family who is familiar with my kind of challenges and who has a physically fenced in yard. I also want 1 other playful dog around my size (50 pounds+) or bigger  to play with (I can play a little rough so they need to be tough like me) and a family who is very patient with me while I adjust to new people in my life.  I am a very loyal companion and I just want to please my humans!   Once I know I can trust you, I just want to be around you and will be your shadow as you go through your day.  I have also had my DNA tested! I am officially an Australian Cattle Dog/Harrier mix!    Last Hope requires that all pets be kept as indoor pets, be altered and current on vaccinations and preventatives. Our adoption process includes reference and vet checks and a home visit. The adoption fee includes: spay/neuter, microchip and vaccinations.   Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.November 4, 2024, 6:20 pm

Our volunteers have worked with him and found him to be a very friendly and affectionate dog, although he still requires slow and controlled introductions with strangers and will need an owner that appreciates his breed and unique needs.  No children, no cats and preferably a homeowner with a physical fenced in yard.  Bear's adoption fee is $250 and includes his neuter, current vaccinations, and microchip.  last Hope requires that all animals be kept as indoor pets only, current on preventatives and vaccinations, and be altered.  Our adoption process includes reference and background checks, a vet check and a home visit.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.November 4, 2024, 6:20 pm

Story
By far, this brown-eyed girl is a DOLL. Possibly one of the cutest to ever exist! Everly is basically a pint-sized puppy dog, and she couldn't be ANY better! Along with her petite size, gorgeous eyes, and the cutest grin; she's a sweetheart, through a through, her favorite thing to do with people are give kisses, cuddle, and snuggle at our feet. She makes for an amazing greeter-pooch as her wiggle butt couldn't get any quicker! Everly weighs about 20 pounds or so, at 8 months old, making her that PERFECT size! She's right at that size where she can join you anywhere, load herself up in the car, cuddle in bed, she doesn't mind! In fact, exploring, cuddling, and then sleeping is her day on repeat. She gets along with everything and everyone! We really can't get enough of her, and her wiggle butt! One of my favorite things about Everly is how she just MELTS as soon as she starts getting loved on, it's beyond adorable. Due to her great manners, known commands, leash walking skills, AND her crate-training/house-breaking, all of these skills making her SO easy to get home, and transition seamlessly into your life!
