Story

Lotus's Story Lotus is a beautifully gentle 45lb dog who is looking for her perfect match! At four years old, much of life is still new to her. She spent her early years in a shelter environment, and while she’s made beautiful progress in foster care, she is still learning to navigate everyday experiences with confidence. Lotus takes things in at her own pace — and when she’s given the time and space to do that, she shows just how much she has to offer. With people she trusts, Lotus’s personality shines! She has a wonderfully silly, goofy side — zooming around the yard, playing with toys, and showing off a lighthearted charm that feels like a reward you’ve earned. < Lotus is naturally timid with new people and unfamiliar situations. She will need an adopter who understands that trust takes time, and who is committed to using gentle, patient, positive reinforcement to help her continue building confidence. She is not a dog who will settle in overnight — but she is absolutely a dog who will form a deep and meaningful bond. One of Lotus’s greatest strengths is her love of other dogs. She has excellent social skills and truly comes alive in their presence. A calm, confident canine companion would likely help her feel more secure and could play an important role in her continued growth. Lotus is looking for a quiet, stable home with a fully fenced yard, where she can move at her own pace and feel safe as she adjusts. Her ideal person is someone who is either experienced with shy dogs or open to learning — someone who sees her sensitivity not as a challenge, but as something to respect and support. With patience, consistency, and kindness, Lotus will continue to grow into the dog she is meant to be. She doesn’t need perfection — just someone willing to meet her where she is and walk alongside her as she gains confidence. Her journey is already well underway. Now she’s ready to continue it in a home of her own.

Story

Meet Rex, a handsome middle-aged Border Collie who is doing an amazing job of overcoming his fears! This lovely boy is friendly with most new people and, once he feels comfortable, will greet you with a happy smile and eagerly lean in for scratches. He loves to play and have fun, and will keep your life entertaining! While he`s making wonderful progress, certain men, sudden movements, and loud noises can still make him nervous, so having a patient family who will continue building his confidence at his own pace will be important!Rex is crate trained, has excellent recall, and has been known to be social with other dogs, so he may enjoy sharing his home with a calm canine companion. He`s lived around children before, but respectful teenagers who understand him would be the best fit. We are not sure how he would do with cats or small animals, meaning slow introductions would be key! Due to a history of tummy troubles, Rex is on a hypoallergenic diet and receives regular vitamin B12 injections to keep him feeling his best, and his new family should be prepared to continue this care. Brave, sweet, and incredibly deserving, Rex is ready to find a family who will love him just as he is!Rex is:- open to older kids 13+- unknown with cats, slow intros required- open to dogs pending successful intros
