We had such a great time in October that we're hosting another Hike with a Shelter Dog event in November! Join us as we take out our long-term residents for a day of adventure and good sniffs!

Sign up in the volunteer portal if you plan to join so we know how many dog walkers we'll have. We'll meet at 1:00 pm for a quick pre-hike meeting and check in with a 1:30 start time.

This weekend we received a new transport of 9 precious souls. Thanks to the help of our donors, staff, and volunteers, we get to help dogs like these get a new chance at life and the opportunity to be safe and loved. Interested in helping us continue to rescue and save lives? Apply to adopt or foster, or donate today!

🍂🐾 November is here, and it's the perfect time to give thanks for our furry companions! 🐾 🍂 Each wagging tail and joyful bark reminds us of the unconditional love and joy our dogs bring into our lives. This month, as a way of giving thanks, we've set a goal to raise $25,000, which is the cost to feed all our dogs at the shelter for a year. As we think about our four-legged family members--past, present, and future--let's not forget about those dogs still in search of their furever home. Let’s come together to support those in need! ❤️

🎉🥳🐶 Happy Foster Friday, Furfriends 🐶🥳🎉

While many are still coming down from their sugar filled night, last night, we've got one more Halloween Sweet Treat for you! Meet Hocus, a gorgeous and kind dalmation mix. This 1 year old charmer is great with kids and other dogs and loves a good couch to nap on. She bonds with her humans and shares her love without holding back. At 1 year old, she's still learning her leash and house manners, but this smart girl is a quick study and more than makes up for it with her sweet demeanor. She's almost recovered from a little virus, so don't mind her pink spots. We think she just wants to be an extra special rainbow dalmation!

Apply to adopt Hocus today!

Happy Tails! We have some adorable alumni updates! We love getting photos and updates of how your new best friend is settling in, whether it's been 3 weeks or 3 years! Both the staff and volunteers form deep bonds with our dogs and there's nothing more rewarding than seeing them happy and thriving in their furever home.
Check out these photos we received from three alumni!

Meet Ducky (full name: Turducken)!

This 6 year old pittie girl has been with us for 3 years. She's been waiting for just the right home and we know it's out there!

Ducky was likely an olympian in her past life. She is super athletic and loves swimming, agility, and playing ball. She can even play with two soccer balls at the same time! But don't be intimidated by her athleticism because at 6, she is also very happy to balance the fun with a good ol 'nap on the couch and quiet time in the house. She's even housebroken! Ducky loves any body of water, big or small, and will make do with snow and mud, as well.
In the summertime, she has been lucky enough to private lap swim in a nearby pool and it is her favorite pastime. She takes regular car trips with volunteers and is fabulous at riding shotgun with all smiles. She has also been a very cooperative girl at the vet.

So what kind of home is Ducky waiting for? She'd like a home with human companions only. She's been a mom, raised her puppies, and now it's her time to shine as an only dog. She doesn't guard food, toys, or any of her favorite things and is a master of food puzzles because she is smart as a whip.

Ducky can be a little vocal and expresses her excitement without holding back which means we give her a little extra time when meeting a brand new person but she blossoms when in the company of all her hoomans and turns into quite the social butterfly.

Interested in meeting Ducky? Fill out an application today!

🥳🎉🐶 Happy Foster Friday Furfriends! 🐶🎉🥳

We're switching it up today and sharing a collection of photos of our wonderful fosters who are available for adoption!

Adopting a dog from foster care is wonderful because they often come with a head start in their house manners and socialization. It also frees up a spot for a new dog to potentially move into foster. Interested in fostering a dog yourself? Apply today and we can help match you with the right fit for your home!

😍 Cutie alert!! 😍

Meet Pearl, our 7 month old American Eskimo Lab Mix. This girl is equal parts curious, confident, and friendly. As a puppy, she's got lots of energy to burn and lots of things to learn, but this sweet girl is smart and ready for training. Plus, with ears that big, she's bound to be a great listener!

Could Pearl be the missing piece you're looking for? Apply to adopt her today!

❗️Cocoa needs a foster❗️

Our poor boy Cocoa is very stressed in the shelter environment, and we're looking for a foster where he can have the opportunity to decompress and build his confidence while looking for his forever home.

Cocoa is a 1 year old beauty who is sweet, funny, and smart, but still finding his confidence and the shelter is not the place for that. He did so well on the group hike last weekend, and it showed us who he can be when he's not overwhelmed.

He's got puppy energy but is happy to run that out with a good game of fetch or a long walk. Cocoa is very receptive to training and a quick study. He would be ok in a home with kids. He also likes puppies and could be ok with a mellow dog, but is probably better off as the only dog.

Could you give Cocoa the chance he needs and deserves to decompress and feel safe again? Apply to foster today!

🎉🥳🐶 Happy Foster Friday, Furfriends!! 🐶🥳🎉

Lil Rascal is still looking for his furever home! He is a 9-10 month old terrier mix whose adorable eye patch is not one to miss! His foster mama said this about him...

"Lil Rascal is a very friendly and energetic puppy! He is great with dogs and has been making a lot of friends at the dog park. He would do well in a home with children and a dog companion. He would be best suited to a home with a fenced yard or with an owner who leads an active lifestyle. He is very smart and is catching on well to house training, although he does need frequent walks to continue with his training. He loves treats, cuddling, trying to steal acorns, and playing with his dog friends!"

Meet Moonbeam!

This 2 year old, 40 lbs Kelpie mix arrived last week and is already showing us what a smart girl she is! She knows sit, down, wait, and how to walk on a leash. At our hike over the weekend, she enjoyed leading the pack but was also happy to pause and wait to offer others directions. This girl had no problem hiking for an hour and had plenty left in the tank. She'd be great in an active home and would probably love agility, frisbee, or fetch.

Moonbeam is located at our shelter and is available for adoption or foster. Apply below!

Bruno's really been dwelling on getting knocked out of the best costume competition in the first round. He's now decided it's time for his villain era. The only way to bring back Super Bruno? Finding his furever home! When he's not plotting to takeover the world as revenge for his lack of votes, Bruno is the sweetest and most easygoing puggle! He walks great on a leash and is ready to snuggle!

Help us help Bruno (and possibly save the world from his domination), and let's get him adopted!
