Story
Hi, my name is Scooby and I would love to meet you. I have been at the shelter since Mar 11, 2025. I might be a little shy when meeting new people, but once I warm up, I’ll be your most devoted companion. Whether we’re hanging out at home or heading out for a walk—be ready for some enthusiastic squirrel watching!I have a talent for sniffing out treats—no Scooby Snacks required. I love nose training! Structure and consistency help me thrive, so I’m looking for a home with adults or older teens who can keep up with my training.

Hi, my name is Commander and I would love to meet you. I have been at the shelter since Mar 23, 2024. I’m all about being close to you—snuggling up or even sharing your pillow, if you’ll let me! I’m a big guy, though, and sometimes I forget just how big I am, so get ready for lots of love. On walks, I like to take my time, sniffing everything and making sure everyone knows I’ve been there. Tug toys are my absolute favorite, and I love a good game!

Story
Meet Tiramisu! Tiramisu is a sweet little guy who might be a bit shy at first, but once he warms up, he’s all about love and cuddles. He’s doing great with kennel training at night and is working on potty pad training—he’s getting there! He’s also learning basic commands like “sit,” “down,” and “leave it” (he’s still little, so we’re taking our time). This playful pup adores other dogs and is absolutely smitten with people and kids. He’s always up for a good game of tug-of-war, and if you have a squeaky toy, you’ve just made a best friend for life. If you’re looking for a loving, fun, and eager-to-learn companion, Tiramisu is your guy!

Story
Maizy Grace is the sweetest pup! She was found in December on the side of the road after having puppies. We took her in to heal and provided her with what she needed. She is fully vaccinated, spayed, and microchipped. She roams the house during the day and night. She has been kennel trained as well and knows that it's a safe place. She gets along great with other dogs, adults, and young children. Maizy is such a joy to be around. She's been taught to sit before eating her meals and knows "sit" as a command. She does well on a leash and LOVES her daily walks. She is the best cuddle companion and will sit/lay with you when you're sad, being lazy, or while watching a movie. With a little patience and training, she'll be the best companion for hiking. She is the 5th dog in our family. We did not intend to keep her for a long period of time. It is becoming difficult to manage all the furbabies. She deserves a home that will spoil her rotten.
