Available Dogs

Thank you for your interest in our available dogs. We like to get to know the dogs in our care prior to posting them for adoption so if you do not see the dog you are looking for, feel free to put an interest form in telling us what you are looking for in a forever friend. We love to "match-make" and we may have a dog that is not yet posted that is perfect for you. Once we have an interest form from you, one of our staff will contact you (in 7 - 10 days) to discuss your needs in detail as well as the dog(s) you are interested in.

Please note, if you are unable to see the pictures of our dogs, your browser may not be up to date.

Lina

I'm a sweet, shy girl who loves to cuddle!

I'm a very shy girl that can take a moment to warm up to people and I can be anxious in new situations. But once I know I can trust you and I feel comfortable, I am very affectionate and cuddly. I am an excellent heater dog that likes to crawl under the blankets with you at night. I would do best as an only dog. I can live with cats.

Jasper

Looking for a best friend that loves to play and run as much as I do? I'm your boy!

I love nothing more than bounding through the grass, chasing after balls, and showering everyone with my exuberant affection. I enjoy greeting people, but my excitement frequently gets the best of me, and I can't help but jump up to say hello. I am a quick learner, though, especially when treats are involved. Sit? Easy peasy! Treats are my weakness, and I'd do just about anything for a tasty reward.

Rigatoni AKA Toni

Pasta-tively adorable!

I'm an energetic guy who knows how to have fun! I love to play and goof around, but I'm also a fan of cuddling on the couch. I'm definitely a lap dog! My foster mom says I'm a great communicator and know how to express myself. Don't worry, I'm not much of a barker. I'm soft spoken and usually huff and puff instead.

Sirius

I'm named after Sirius Black!

I'm a scruffy dog who, like my namesake, has a bit of a bad reputation despite being a very sweet boy. I travelled all the way from California to find a new home and new opportunities. I'm a bit fearful of new things and people, but if you give me time and space, I warm up and request interaction.

JuJuBe

Like the fruit, not the candy

I didn't have the best start to live, but I'm ready to learn how to be a dog! I do not understand how to walk on a leash and I freeze when you try and pick me up. I am very nervous as I learn and do not like to be touched. But still, I am a good dog, I just need patience.

Kimber

It's going down, I'm yelling Kimber, I love to cuddle, I love to move.

My name is Kimber, 'Kimby Jones,' and I'm an oversized lap dog who loves to cuddle and look longingly into your eyes because personal space doesn't exist. When not laying across my owner's chest, I love sunbathing on the porch, going for walks and practicing my tricks (sit, place, say hello, and down). I'm very food motivated and get so excited during breakfast and dinner that I do my tippy-tap dance with my paws and sometimes howl in excitement. I'm not very high energy and I'm not into chewing. When I need to potty I will hop off the couch and stare into your soul until you let me out. Cuddling on the couch until I fall into a deep, snoring sleep is my favorite activity. I'm a little shy at first, but if you give me safe space to hide (like under the desk or dining table) I'll warm up to you when I feel safe. 

Breed: Pit Bull Terrier /Mix

Asher

My love language is food.

I  love to eat and will gobble anything including fruits and vegetables! I'm friendly and playful, especially with other dogs. I will be the perfect dog for someone who has a backyard or a property with land. I can be a bit anxious and shy at first, but being around other dogs definitely helps with anxiety. I am calm and quiet and I rarely bark. I'm a great companion if you like to go on walks and hikes.

Zara

I’m energetic and goofy, cuddly and kissy, and there is nothing I like more than being chased!

I like my crate and I enjoy chewing on bones and sticks. I also like taking socks to my crate when nobody is looking. I'm a big puppy and scared of new situations and do best with a dog friend to help me feel safe.  I love dogs but I can be occassionally selective. I want to play with cats but they don't understand my play bows. That's okay ! I'm pretty good at listening to corrections and giving smaller dogs and cats space if they want it.

Percy

****FOSTER NEEDED****

I love everyone!

I'm a happy, bouncy girl who loves meeting new people. Sometimes I get so excited that I jump and get mouthy, but I'm working on keeping my paws on the ground and sitting politely for pets. I am potty trained and never make a mess in my kennel. I love treats and take them extremely gently. I am just starting to learn some basic obedience cues but I am very smart and learning quickly.

I'm a cattle dog, which should say plenty about me. I can be intense and I love to chase critters. I can also be a bit of an escape artist/. But don't let that stop you from learning about me. I love other dogs, once I get to know them, and kids are my favorite. Let me come home with you and you can see what a good dog I can turn into.

Bandit

I'm looking for a partner in crime!

I'm a sweet boy! I do prefer slower introductions, at first, when meeting new people. Once I warm up though, I love to cuddle! I also would love if you threw me a toy. It's one of my favorite things! I can spend hours entertaining myself with throwing my own toys up in the air. That's a little bit of my goofy side. I'd do best in a home with older children because I have lots of energy and I can be a bit jumpy. I am fine with other dogs, but may do best with dogs that match my high energy.

I am a love bug with lots to say!

I always know what I want and I will tell you ALL about it! I love to learn new things and play fetch! I am looking for a family that loves to hike and train! I have had some agility dog training and know my basic commands very well!

I may not seek out other people's attention, but I will always seek yours out! I love following my people around and being the center of attention.

A scruffy boy with energy to spare!

I'm an active guy who is working hard on learning my manners!  Sometimes I jump up on people when I am excited but I am working on improving. I know my basic cues and am very smart. I love my people but I also enjoy having my space, so I need a home with someone who respects my boundaries.

Maverick

Want to hike and then cuddle? I'm your guy!

I am a smart & good-looking boy who is in search for my partner or partners in crime. I desire someone who is patient, kind, can handle my unstoppable energy, and loves to play.

I am still learning manners as well as obedience, I can't wait to learn with you! If you are active & love the outdoors, are a great teacher, and want to snuggle afterwards then I could be the forever & loyal friend you've been searching for. I prefer to be the only pet and while I do okay with cats I may be a little to eager to play with them. If this sounds like I could be your new best friend, Let's meet!

I'm a snuggle bug with my people and have no concept of personal space. I want to be involved in everything you're doing! I love going for walks but I do pull. Maybe you can help me learn some leash skills? I like to inhale my food because it's just so yummy, so I have to use a slow feeder at mealtimes.
