Story
This is my sweet beautiful baby girl Frida. She is a very energetic and lively girl. She unfortunately cannot live with other dogs because of hyper arousal and anxiety. She has also had problems with resource guarding but with certain prevention that is not a pressing concern for her. She has attacked our other dog multiple times one of them resulting in a bite. She has to be kept completely separate from other dogs in the home for prevention and the utmost safety. She does do okay in settings like the dog park or dogs walking along the street (her hyper arousal seems to be mainly concentrated to her home). She has shown absolutely NO signs of aggression towards humans or children and is truly a very sweet girl. I love Frida with my whole soul and I just want to find her a home that can more properly suit her needs. Frida is 2 years old, 60 pounds, fully vaccinated and spayed. I would not recommend her for an apartment or home with any other animals.

Story
Introducing Koda, the handsome hero with eyes that can melt hearts! Koda isn't just a treat for the eyes; he's a brilliant pup whose love for his ball knows no bounds. "Ball is life" is his motto, and he's happiest when he's sprinting after his favorite toy or being chased. Koda loves his walks, thriving on the excitement of new smells and sights. He is excellent with kids and he has been around children from ages newborn to 4 years old. At doggy daycare, Koda is affectionately known as the "Mayor" because of his friendly demeanor and how well he gets along with all the other dogs going up to each one by one to see who will play with him. Koda is house and crate trained, and has been through a training course knowing the essential commands. If you're looking for a loyal companion who brings beauty, brains, and boundless joy into your life, Koda is your guy. He’s ready to bring his joyful spirit and gorgeous eyes into your home and heart.

Story
Hi! This is River. She is a 57lbs heeler mix. She's a very sweet but scared baby who needs lots of love. When she opens up to you she loves to cuddle and play. She has some skin issues that her previous owner was trying to euthanize her for, but they are being treated with cytopoint injections and staying on top of her flea and tick prevention. We are looking for a home that is willing to keep up with her care but can also be patient with her through the strange chapter in her life. We have noticed that it takes longer for her to warm up to men and unspayed female dogs, but she does with time.

Story
10 1/2 years old corgi. He is so sweet, corgi bossy, and a little stubborn. Adopted at 8 weeks old. His birthday is October 31st. He is house trained and loves treats. He did have a torn ACL in back leg but was repaired a couple years ago and is great now. He doesn’t like to swim but does love baths. I need to find him a loving home that he can spend the rest of his days. If someone could adopt 2 dogs that would best. 6 year old terrier mix is his best buddy that needs to be rehomed with him. Her name is Eevee.

Story
Athena was born February 15th ,2023 and I got her in May of 2023 from a friends cousin. She is very intelligent, high energy, active, protective, and loving. Athena enjoys solving puzzle enrichment toys, chewing on large bones, long walks, and her kiddie pool. All in all she is a wonderful dog but she has had some aggression issues with my older dog. Unfortunately I am not able to financially provide more training and the environment she needs. Athena would do best in a home that has no other pets or young children, and with owners who can dedicate time to her. She is up to date on all her shots and has mild allergies that can be treated with Zyrtec per her vet.
