Story
Woodrow "Woody" is such a sweet guy and he came to us Heartworm positive and had an injury on his back leg that required a modified TPLO surgery and he has since been through both the HW treatment and the surgery. we have since discovered that he does have a Patella that is trying to Luxate but we will be trying a physical therapy intervention vs a second surgery in hopes that building the muscles back up will help us avoid that! He is coming soon as we determine his next path with that-May 11, 2026, 12:04 pm

Story
Gorda is a high energy dog. She loves to be outdoors. She loves to make friends. She’s a goofy girl. She needs a home that will be patient with her. The plan wasn’t to keep her because I did find her at work so training was delayed what we did focus on was her food she has gotten better fortunately, nothing has happened from that but she will still need training/ correction with it and she needs someone strong while walking her if she likes to pull, she still needs a little bit of help being trained. We love her so much but she needs a better quality of life and a place she’s allowed to live in.

Story
Odin came to us having had both of his eyes just removed at the shelter as they were both in extremely rough shape with several issues. He was a stray that came in with another dog but his buddy did have to be humanely let go at the shelter d/t having a tumor. Odin seems ok with other dogs but with having completely lost his eyes he does need to be around them for a bit before he is ok with them and gets used to them. He does seem to prefer female dogs so far vs male dogs-though the male dog we have had him near was in tact and just recently neutered so that may effect that energy. But Odin LOVES people and such a sweet love to humans! Odin has adjusted GREAT to life without his eyes, much better than a human would, and gets around amazingly! He likes to be outside but truly he likes to be where he knows and can sense you are near. He comes to his name and you can guide him along verbally and his hearing seems to be intact. He does need to lose some weight so we are hoping the more active he is now that his sutures have come out and he has been cleared to be active that that will help! He does also seem to be mostly potty trained now that he has gotten used to the routine and walks well on a leash and is easy to redirect and walk along! He can be vocal when you leave him and we did have him on Trazodone when he first came to us with lots of crying and pacing happening, but again now that he has learned the routine that seems to be diminishing and we have since taken him off Trazodone though he may need it to get used to a new home. He also may not like being behind barriers as an Australian Shepherd so that could also not be helping! But he does seem to have some separation anxiety that we feel like is getting better. Because he can be vocal we dont think he would be appropriate in an apartment setting.  May 11, 2026, 12:04 pm
