My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet Ava! She is a 2-year-old Staffy mix looking for her forever home. She is currently in a foster and we`ve learned a lot about Ava because of it! Inside the home, she`s calm and low-energy, preferring a laid-back atmosphere. She`s incredibly gentle and gets along well with respectful children. Ava also has a fondness for toys and loves snuggling under blankets. When guests visit, Ava is friendly but not overly excitable. She`ll give a few alert barks when someone arrives at the door, but quickly settles down. She`s fully potty trained and enjoys car rides, making her an easygoing companion on the go.
Ava would thrive as the only dog in the home, as she tends to be selective with other dogs. She’s okay around calm dogs that prefer to co-exist rather than play. Does Ava sound like she could be a good match for you?

Additional adoption info

PUPPIES

Any dog that is younger than 1 year old is considered a puppy. They come with age-appropriate vaccines, are dewormed, microchipped, on heartworm preventative, and if age allows spay/neutered. If they are not old enough to have the procedure done, we do require a $100 deposit which is refunded once the surgery is done. We require the spay/neuter to be done at 6 months and can schedule it at one of our vets if you wish to not use your own vet. If you do decide to go to your own vet, once proof of procedure is done, a refund can be issued. Puppy adoption fees are $350 + $100 refundable deposit.

ADULTS

Adult dogs are dogs that are ages 1 – 6 years old. They come with vaccinations (Bordetella, Rabies, Distemper), are dewormed, on heartworm prevention, microchipped, heartworm tested, and spay/neutered. Upon intake, they also have an initial wellness exam to screen for any pre-existing conditions. Their adoption fee is $300.

SENIORS

Senior dogs are dogs that are 7 years old and up. They come with vaccinations (Bordetella, Rabies, Distemper), are dewormed, on heartworm prevention, microchipped, heartworm tested, and if age allows spay/neutered. Upon intake, they also have an initial wellness exam to screen for any pre-existing conditions. Their adoption fee is $100.
