Meet Riley who will make you fall in love with him once given the opportunity to love him!! Look at those sweet eyes❤️
Riley is about 2yrs old and weighs about 63lbs. Riley is a handsome pit that came into our shelter so unsure when first being in his kennel of new people. Riley now enjoys walks and will go potty outside on every walk. Riley hasn’t had the first accident in his kennel since arriving to our shelter. Riley keeps his kennel very clean and loves having his blanket for comfort. Riley is very treat and food motivated but does need to learn to take treats easy from your hand. We are working with him on that. Riley’s previous family said he was housebroken and good with other animals and kids. Riley is truly a special boy that once you get to know melts your heart. Riley needs a family with time and patience as he deserve so much love. Riley has been neutered and is up to date on his shots. Please come by for a meet and greet if you’re interested in Riley.

Just a puppy with no one looking to add her to their family. Please share🖤
Diamond enjoyed a nice walk today and this absolute gorgeous photo was captured. Diamond is a petite girl weighing 38lbs at about 7-8months old. Diamond we were told is a lab/pit mix. If you follow us you will see the original post as Diamond is a unique girl being a pseudohermaphrodite which meant she had male parts inside which resulted in her being neutered while being a female on exterior. The vet said she is a healthy girl and it shouldn’t cause any problems later on in life. Unfortunately Diamond isn’t having anyone interested in giving her a home. Diamond walks well on leash, but is curious and may pull. Diamond needs a family with time and patience willing to work and train her as she is still young. Diamond’s adoption fee is $95 cash or check. Help this gorgeous girl find a forever place to call home!! Our hours are Monday, Tuesday, Friday 10-2 and Saturday 10-3 to meet Diamond. If you have any questions regarding Diamond please message us!! Let’s help this beautiful unique girl find the love of a family!!

Kenny headed home yesterday❤️
Opening your home and heart to a rescue dog after the loss of a beloved family dog never fixes your broken heart but it certainly helps mend it. That’s exactly what this super sweet family did when adopting Kenny. They lost their beloved shepherd/husky mix named Bo. Their heart felt they needed four paws in their home to mend the missing piece in their home. We love that Kenny has you all now as he is one special boy who needed this. We wish so much love to Kenny and his new forever family!! Thank you for adopting one of our shelter dogs❤️
