***ADOPTED***
Lucy is a sweet, gentle, and affectionate dog. She can be a bit of a couch potato and is nice and quiet. She is calm in her kennel which is why we think she gets overlooked by potential families. Though she may love her downtime, she's always ready for her next adventure. Lucy is a well-behaved, intelligent dog who already knows basic commands and would love to learn more. She does her best to not use her kennel as a restroom, making us believe she is house-trained! She gets along well with other dogs, so she would be a great fit for a household with another furry friend. She's an all-around great dog and is ready to hit the road with your family.

Blackberry is exhausted from managing the shelter and the employees this week. She is ready for the weekend!!🐱
Felicity and Fozburn are ready for their new family! They are spayed/neutered, playful, potty trained, and very sweet. They are best friends and we would love to see them get out of the shelter.

Willow, Buttercup, Bender and Dufus are the best! They do not show well in their kennel but you can see once outside they are love bugs! Come see them at the shelter!
They need your help! We are FULL again. Stop by anytime from 8-5 today! We will be here, waiting….hoping. It’s a good day to save a life!
We say this a lot but boy do we have some AMAZING dogs waiting on their forever home. Our volunteers work on socializing and teaching them the basics. Come visit us anytime Mon-Fri 9-12 or 1-4.
Galco!!
Sweet Galco is waiting very patiently for his forever home. He has been a shelter resident for 5 months! He was picked up as a stray and no one ever came looking for him. We are waiting for the right family to find Galco, as he needs to be in a single animal household. He has been practicing his tricks hoping that people will notice what a good boy he is, as he can be nervous when people walk past his kennel. He has had a rough life, but deserves a chance at happiness. Please help us get Galco a home❤️🩷❤️
