Story
Meet Rooney!This dude loves nothing more than fun, playing, and socializing with people and other dogs! He's a smart as a whip and picks up on stuff very quickly! He enjoys training and loves to show off his little prance when he gets something right! Rooney has been working on his leash manners, learning to sit (Which he is now a master at!), learning auto-sit to help keep his handler engagement, and learning to keep his paws (And mouth) to himself! When meeting new people, he gets extremely excited and forgets his manners (He has baby brain, what can he say!?) Rooney wouldn't mind meeting future dog siblings or sharing a home with other felines but he will chase! As for kids, Rough and tumble kids would be best suited for this high energy guy, though. When he gets the zoomies, he may accidentally take a kid down, he has no body awareness he also likes to sit on them and at 68lbs that could hurt a little one! Rooney also is in need of a home where someone is always with him, he can go to work with them etc. He has separation anxiety and is destructive when unsupervised, but luckily Rooney loves to ride and go on adventures. Come on down with the whole family (Including future dog siblings) to meet Rooney!

Story
LOOKING FOR FOSTER TO ADOPT! Meet Thor! This handsome boy has become a staff favorite! He's a total love bug with his people, although it does take several meetings to become "one of his people". He LOVES playing in the yard especially with Kongs and tennis balls! He knows basic commands such as "sit" and "leave it". He gives the BEST hugs! Thor has had some troubles with his ears and now is worried when people he doesn't trust seem to be trying to touch them. For this reason, Thor needs to be in a home with no kids under 18. Thor has previously lived with cats and other dogs. He has lots of dog friends at the shelter!

Story
As sly as a fox, as strong as an ox, as fast as a hare, as brave as a bear; ok, so he might not be THAT brave, but you get the point.Meet Ace!Ace enjoys humans, going for walks, and food; especially food. He sure is as strong as an ox, and he knows it! This dude is looking for a home to help him work on his leash manners (Which he IS improving on!) to bring him on walks (Or runs!) to get his energy out, and a home with someone who understands big-headed boys! Ace can be sensitive, don't let his size fool you. He's a big boy who doesn't fully understand he's a big boy! One of Ace's favorite things is kiddie pools! He LOVES to splash and play in the water, so may make a nice lake house, or boat, dog! Ace is willing to meet female dogs and submissive male dogs; he can be dominant with other males! As for kids, Ace may do well with rough and tumble kids who are used to being around big dogs, like we said, he doesn't exactly know his size and may accidentally take one down!Interested in Ace? Swing on down to KVHS during available adoption hours and ask to meet him!

Meet Shannon!This dude is BIG, beefy, and enjoys attention from people! He can be a bit vocal (Barks) when he wants something, enjoys running and playing in the yard, LOVES his food (A little too much) and was scared of cats here! We believe Shannon's ideal home would be someone dedicated to building a bond through training, no kids under the age of 10, and someone whose looking for an active dog to go on adventures with! Shannon is a big boy, at nearly 75lbs, he doesn't understand that he's this big; he believes he's a lap dog! He is also willing to meet other dogs! Calmer more submissive may be best. Bring in all household members including dogs for a meet and greet.

Story
Gina was a cruelty, trauma, neglect case that came from an inner city shelter. Her owner had requested her to be euthanized but the shelter was able to sway them to surrender instead. Even for being a senior, she gets around okay. She is not reactive to dogs on walks and is very gentle on the leash. She is protective over her person though, so there shouldn’t be any other animals in her retirement home. She is perfectly okay being a couch potato and loves to catch up on all of her tv shows! When she wags her tail, she wiggles her whole body!
