Meet Goliath! Goliath is a 3 year old male and weighs 82lbs. He is not neutered yet, so he can’t go home, but he would love visitors in the meantime. He came to us as a stray almost 2 weeks ago and we are still getting to know him. We know he is sweet and likes attention. He does jump when he gets excited. He likes toys and playing fetch. He seems to like other dogs through the fence, but meet and greets are always recommended. If you would like to meet Goliath, please call the shelter.

A post a day gets Everest a home to stay! Day 239. Let’s share this post to find Everest a home!

Meet Everest!
Age: 1.5 years old
S*x: Spayed female
Weight: 46 lbs
Personality and Behavior: Everest is very sweet and playful. She loves to play fetch and run around the play yards. She knows the command sit very well. She does still have some puppy tendencies including being mouthy and jumping up when she’s excited. She can be nervous around new people, but she normally warms up very quickly. She has done well on trail walks with volunteers with minimal pulling.
Dogs: She does fine with dogs through the fence, but has had issues with other dogs in the home in the past. Due to this, Everest would do best as an only dog in the home.
Children: We aren’t sure, but since she jumps, we would recommend bringing your children in for a meet and greet.
Cats: unknown.

If you would like to meet Everest, please stop by or call the shelter!

Come meet our available dogs and puppies! Green kennel cards mean they are ready to go home, but the ones that aren’t ready yet would still love to have visitors.
Please note, this video is meant to be an overview of who we have in the adoptable kennels, not to go into specifics of each one. If you see someone you’re interested in and have specific questions about them, please message the page, call the shelter, or stop by in person to meet them. We also do individual posts for dogs, highlighting their characteristics and what we know about them. In general, we do not know how these dogs are with children, cats, and sometimes other dogs. Adoption fees are $75, but we may have some whose adoptions are sponsored through November!
