Story
Nala is a sweet dog that was rescued from an abusive homeless camp situation. She is approximately two years old spayed, female, up-to-date on shots, crate trained, and walks well on a leash. Her past situation has given her some reactivity to other dogs so a solo dog home or very experienced handler is her ideal situation. She loves all people and kids. She can play a little rough so younger kids would need to be cautious. She loves snuggles, boat rides, car rides, and generally being around her people. Please consider meeting Nala. She shared with Santa that she wanted a permanent home for Christmas Her adoption fee will be credited for a trainer to help transition into a new home

Story
I will pay the adoption fee. Zoe was adopted on November 23, 2024 from the Franklin County Animal Shelter. I just found out my husband has Parkinson’s and we are Senior Citizens. I cannot care for my husband and the Dog. The Animal Shelter is currently not accepting SURRENDERED dogs in order for them to accommodate strays that are coming in.

Story
Herc was rescued from death row in San Antonio, Texas. He has had a rough life in his few short years, including being attacked by other stray dogs. Still, he is very sweet and loving to me. He takes treats gently and has never shown any aggression towards me or any other human. He also has broken some of his teeth, and clearly has been abused by humans. I agreed to be his foster because I saw such pain and suffering in his eyes, suffering no being should have to endure. He deserves a loving home where he doesn’t have to worry about being attacked again. Herc is not good with cats, so he must go to a cat free home. He does ok with my other dogs, but he needs supervision during play, if another dog attacks him he won’t back down. He is very loyal, and would be an awesome dog for the right home. He cuddles with me all the time, a real velcro dog. If you have compassion, and want to give an abused being a second chance at life, please consider adopting him.

Story
Love isn't a sprint, it's a marathon. And Relay has the heart and soul to go the distance by your side! Relay is a fun and happy go lucky guy who takes life in stride. He just doesn't want to hear any jokes about three-legged relay races - he already knows them all! This fun loving tri-pod loves to play with his dog friends here at the shelter and would likely do well in a home with another dog. Relay has a rough and rowdy play style. Meet and greets are recommended for any potential canine siblings to make sure they and Relay would be a good match. If you are looking for a confident adventure buddy, Relay is your boy! He is always up for a game of fetch or tug or to head out on a walk or hike. Relay is an active dog that would do best in an active home to help keep his mind and body busy. Looking for a brewery or restaurant buddy? Relay has been a favorite to take on doggie day outs from the shelter where he loves to hang out on patios and enjoy some good company! When he’s not working on his fitness, Relay loves to snuggle up with his favorite humans and his “emotional support ball”. He’s sweet and snuggly and his heart is as big as his blocky head! So don’t walk – RUN - to meet this sweet handsome and athletic boy today! He’d love to pass the baton to a family of his own to love! If you’re interested in meeting Relay, race now to his adoption application and fill that out to schedule a meet and greet. Please note that meet and greets are by appointment only. Relay is 3 years old and weighs 61 lbs. All of our animals come fully vetted so he is neutered, microchipped and up to date on vaccines and preventatives.
