Meet Nolan: the shelter’s undisputed favorite child…and we’re not even pretending otherwise.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. We get it… parents “don’t pick favorites,” but look us in the eye and tell us this walking russet potato shouldn’t be everyone’s No. 1. 👀👀 You can’t. Because he is perfection 😇

Nolan arrived a week ago as a strayand immediately said, “Hello, it’s me, your pride and joy.” And honestly? He’s not wrong. 💁🏼‍♂️

About Nolan:
🔅 General Aura: Golden Retriever energy trapped in a baked potato body.
🔅 As wide as he is tall (we respect a king built like a throw pillow)
🔅 Intelligence? Can’t confirm, but he feels like he always knows where the snacks are so that’s says something, right?
🔅 Kiddos: Loves them; distributes kisses like they’re free samples at Costco
🔅 With Dogs: Bro-tier friendly. Gives off “I brought the chips to the party” energy.
🔅 With Cats: Walks past them like a middle-aged man ignoring drama at work.
🔅Leash Skills: Surprisingly pristine for a root vegetable
🔅Treat Taking: Delicate. Gentle. Would absolutely say “pardon me” if he could talk.
🔅Special Ability: Makes adults speak in baby voices within 0.4 seconds of meeting him
🔅 Weakness: Smooshy face is dangerously kissable

Overall Rating: 13/10 Favorite child energy

Like tiny tornadoes wrapped in fur…
Like tater tots with legs…
Like squishy cinnamon rolls who bark instead of rise…

Built like a tank. Snuggles like a teddy.
Capone’s the kind of guy who could outrun you, outplay you, and out-cuddle you… all before breakfast 🤣🤪

When he first arrived, he wasn’t sure about people (especially the tall, loud, man-shaped ones). But now? Certified social butterfly.
He loves older kids, enjoys playtime MMA style with dog friends, and is 100% ready to share your home, your snacks, and your Netflix queue.

His sense of home security system (aka will alert you to intruders) included. Batteries (aka cookies) not included.

He does not subscribe to the Cat Club. He’s sporting memberships in the Dog Dudes & Blanket Burrito Society kind of guy.

**Capone is a 3 year old, 65lb, pittie mix**

Meet Henry, the calm after the storm. 🖤

You might remember Henry, the sweet boy who went viral after losing his home in a house fire. He’s been through more than any dog ever should, and yet… he remains the definition of grace.

Henry is calm. He’s kind. He’s gentle. A well-mannered gentleman who carries himself with quiet strength. Even when the world around him felt like chaos, Henry stayed steady. He’s a soft soul with eyes that say “I’ve seen hard days, but I still believe in good people.”

His owner has made the heartbreaking decision that they won’t be in a position to take him back. So now, it’s time for Henry’s next chapter, his forever home.

He’s incredibly versatile: great with kids, dogs, and even cats. He’s currently living in an apartment with another dog and doing beautifully. His only real ask? A cozy spot on the couch and a person who will always come back. He does have a touch of separation anxiety (and who can blame him after all he’s endured?), but with patience and love, Henry will settle right in.

If you’ve been waiting for a gentle soul…one who will love you quietly and endlessly…Henry’s your guy. Let’s get this sweet survivor from foster to forever. 💛

🎷 Meet Sinatra: The Chairman of the Board (of Good Boys) 🎩

This silver-muzzled smooth talker’s got that old soul charm that can’t be taught, only lived. Ten years young, 30 pounds of gentleman swagger, and the kind of presence that makes the young pups hush when he walks by.

Sinatra’s the type to lounge under a sunbeam, maybe hum a tune only he remembers, and let the world spin without rush. He’s great with kids, indifferent to cats, and prefers his canine company mature. No rowdy rookies, please.

Give him a calm home, a soft bed, and a few kind words whispered like secrets across the poker table, and he’ll be yours for life. He’s small enough to curl in your lap, but not so small you’ll mistake him for a dust bunny.

He’s class. He’s cool. He’s Sinatra. 🎶
