Story
Hello. I’m looking to find a good home for my baby girl neveah. I’ve had her for about 3 months. Was not planned at all. My ma actually acquired her at the soup kitchen. Where my ma volunteers for the past 10 years. So due to sum changes in our own personal lives. We have to adopt her out unfortunately. As you can tell I already call her my baby girl bec she has the personality of once your around her. It feels like you’ve known her forever. She really sweet. And so caring. She at that stage where she still has a lot of energy. So someone who has time and patience would be awesome. And have a friend for life. I just want someone. Who’s going to spend time with her. And giver her the love she deserves. That’s why I don’t want to charge anything for her. It’s not about money. I just want to find a good home for her. That’s all. Someone who would also let us come visit here from time to time or at least keep us updated with pictures. If you have anymore questions. Feel free to ask.

Story
Rian (A142928) is a 6-month-old husky x Pyrenees mix who weighed around 30 pounds at intake and is still growing!08/01/26 These handsome pups were picked as strays by a concerned citizen, and no one came forward to claim them so they are now looking for their new forever homes! They were a little shy at first, but they warmed up to care staff quickly! These boys have the potential to be big dogs, so please keep that in mind prior to adopting. Rian has congenital corneal edema (cloudy eyes), but there is nothing to suggest he is in any pain or that he can't see. He had bloodwork run to check for signs of adenovirus, and the results came back normal. He just has that oracle look about him! As with all puppies, they will need help with training, including potty training, kennel training, and basic obedience. If you are interested in meeting any of these pups, please give us a call!August 10, 2026, 6:12 pm

Story
LOCATED IN ELKO, NEVADA (not Alaska)Darcy is 1yr 4 months old (young) I’ve been relocating across the country with two other Dobermans in my small car after a divorce, they have fought in the car and now my small living space. Darcy has been with me since his first breath. I’ve had to surrender my other two already but this uncertainty of home and travel is not good for him. He needs a new place to call home where he can decompress and be the pampered boy he is. He is good with people, house trained, now’s some commands (sit, lay down, come, working on stay) he does ok on a leash with a prong collar. He and the male I just relinquished were fighting for dominance. He would do well with being an only pet. I don’t want to see him go but I’m glad to make sure his life is better than it is now. Currently has some wounds that I’m tending too from fight this morning.
