Story
T'Challa was born on March 17, 2023, along with his 6 other siblings. So currently today, he is a year old. T'Challa is a mix between labradoodle and golden retriever. A fact about T'Challa is that he was born with Alopecia. However, this does not stop him from having fun in the sun and cuddling up with people. He absolutely adores running around and chasing after frisbees with his parents. He gets along with both dogs and cats and is very friendly towards children. He is super adorable and cuddly, and fun to be around! We hope to find him a loving and caring home.

Story
Phoebe is a definite Rat Terrier mix around 3-4 years of age. She was found running at large with little Rachel in Taney Co. Missouri. She is a littel shy at first, but a super sweet girl. She does climb out of the pup pen that is 4ft tall so a secure yard for her to play in with a privacy fence would be great! She is a little alpha acting with other dogs, but does like their company. Active girl and super pretty too!  ##1734559##

No fault of his little Luke was surrendered to us. He needs an active home with older kiddos as he loves to jump and chase as most Terriers do. He is a fun boucy little guy that needs a fenced yard or to be on leash when outside due to also his terrier breed.  ##1857570##

Poor Bennie. He has been adopted out twice now....neither return his fault, just life circumstances.He is now a senior seeking a quiet loving home for the rest of his life. Are you the one?   Well Mr. Benny was adopted from us three years ago as a three month old baby pup. We have had him since shortly after his birth and he was such a good boy and still is at just three years old. He likes kids (over the toddler stage), adults and most other dogs. All he wants is a family forever for Christmas! Help us make his wish come true! How could anyone resist that smile!? ##130742##
