Story
Angel is our longest-term resident and is seeking a hospice foster home vs. being adopted. He has cancer, Valley Fever, allergies, etc. APA will cover all hid medical bills for the family who will take him home so he can live out the rest of his life in a home vs. a kennel. Angel is still very high energy and likes to play. He's great with people and kids but not other animals, so he needs to be the only pet in the home. Angel was also trained at our PAWS prison program!

Story
Paisley is a sweet, loveable girl once she gets to know you. She is timid at first. She would like a home where she could just enjoy being pampered and can also do a great job being your confidant and protector. She can be picky about other dogs, so a meet and greet with any resident dogs is necessary. She would probably be happiest as an only dog. She is a PAWS prison training program graduate so is obedience trained and has some basic housetraining skills, too.

Nani is a sweet, loveable girl who loves people and gets along good with most dogs her size. We recommend we help you with an introduction with any resident dog. However, she is not good with small dogs nor cats. Nani would make an excellent family dog in most homes!

Story
Hi, I'm Pluto, and I am a mature adult of 4.5 years. I'm a cute little chunk of a guy. I came to APA from another rescue that housed me with other dogs, and I get along with others but don't like to roughhouse or play too much. I rather just chill. I love people and will be a great part of most families. My only issue is I don't like cats. We can't all be perfect! I love being spoiled and love to cuddle. I am obedience and house trained from the PAWS prison dog program. My trainer said I learn fast, take corrections well, and am very treat motivated. I do need to lose some more weight, so I am on a grain-free diet because I was having some issues with regular stuff.

Story
Hi, my name is Addison. I am a bundle of joy and was at the municipal shelter for 236 days before APA got me out. When I meet new people, I can't help but show my excitement. I am guilty of getting the zommies A LOT! APA sent me to their PAWS prison training program, and I graduated in December 2024. I struggled at first to focus, but my trainer worked well with me, and I soon learned how to follow commands. I also respond well to correction. I get along well with people and other dogs. And I am ready to find a loving furrever home!

Story
Hi, my name is Murphy! APA got me from the ASCMV shelter and sent me to their PAWS prison training program. I am a high energy boy. I did well in my training and graduated from the program in December 2024. I am still needing more socialization with other dogs. I get along with most, but I am a rough player and can be overwhelming for some. I just need to be matched well to my next family. I can't wait to find my home!!
