Can you help us find the right home for Toby?

Meet Toby, a one-year-old mystery herding breed mix with a heart of gold and energy to burn! This lively and affectionate pup is always on the go, ready to shower you with love and make you smile. He's got a zest for life and an adventurous spirit that's sure to keep you on your toes. 🐾 Toby is a true ball of fire and would thrive in an active home with a yard or nearby park where he can run and play to his heart's content. He loves exploring new places and has a boundless enthusiasm for everything life has to offer. He's also a quick learner and eager to please, which makes training a breeze (though you might need a few extra treats to keep his attention!). If you're looking for a loyal and playful companion to share your adventures with, and you can match his high-octane energy, Toby is the perfect match! He's always up for a good time and can't wait to find a loving family to call his own. 💕

Important note: Toby needs to be the only pet in the home (no cats or other small animals)

During our adoption special, Toby's adoption fee is $25 plus license fees and the long-term cost and care of canine companionship.

Can you help us find the right home for Galileo? He's a 2.5-year-old playful pup looking for his new best friend. He's an energetic guy who loves to be active and would thrive with an adventurous human. He enjoys exploring and playing, and he's always up for a good time. He can be a bit of a goofball sometimes - he gets excited easily and might jump up to say hello (he's working on that!). Because he's so full of energy, he needs a home with a fenced yard where he can run and burn off some steam. While he hasn't always had the best luck making doggy friends in the past, he might do well with another dog in his new home. They'd just need to have some slow and careful introductions to make sure they get along. He's also working on his leash manners - sometimes he thinks it's a game of tug-of-war! With some patience and positive reinforcement, he can walk nice for you. His previous family mentioned that he may have some separation anxiety, but ask adoption counselors about ways to keep him feeling safe and happy while you're away! He really loves getting pets, especially around his ears and haunches, so don't be shy about showing him some affection! If you're looking for an active and affectionate companion who will keep you on your toes and fill your days with laughter, he might be the perfect pup for you! 💖🐶

During our adoption special, you can adopt Galileo for a $25 adoption fee, plus license fees and the long term cost and commitment to be his companion.

Meet Fidget! This adorable Border Collie type mix truly lives up to her name. She's a bundle of energy with a playful spirit and a whole lot of love to give. Fidget is still learning her manners, so she can be a bit jumpy and mouthy at times. But with patience and consistent training, she'll blossom into a well-behaved companion. Fidget loves to chase, so she needs a home without cats or other small animals she might see as prey. If you're an active individual or family ready for the commitment of puppyhood, Fidget might be the perfect girl for you! She's eager to please and loves to learn, so with the right guidance, she'll be your loyal and loving best friend for years to come. Are you ready to give Fidget the forever home she deserves? 🌟💕

This way to adopt Hermes! Can you help find the right home for this favorite dog of staff and volunteers? His adoption fee is $25 plus license fees and the long-term cost and commitment to care for him.

Hermes is a top dog. He is intelligent, clownish, affectionate, and gentle, while also a bit stubborn. He is eager to learn and can sit, stay, almost lay down, and he is walking on leash (attached to a harness) like a champ. More than anything he wants to be with his people, and doesn't like to be left alone. But once they are gone, he settles down and is not destructive. He is learning how to be good and wait away from the door, sit while attaching and removing his leash, and waiting for his people to enter the house before he does. He has some stranger danger feelings and will give anyone new deep woofs. He is able to accept new people once they get past those first few minutes. He loves to be brushed and share quiet time while his people read books by the fire. Hermes is very snuggley and will lean in for affection.

Hermes still has young dog energy and loves walks, chasing and bringing back the ball, and he trotted next to his person for a short distance without any hesitation. Hermes would thrive in a family that does not have children under 8 years old, but who can be with him most of the day, and take him out for exercise. A large yard would be ideal. With more training, Hermes will be a good adventure buddy and would love being on the trail with you.

Meet Sleepy, the goofiest, silliest pit bull you'll ever meet! This playful pup is full of energy and loves to romp around with his favorite toys. He's got a big, goofy grin that's sure to melt your heart, but it does take him some time for you to see it. You might see him mouthing on his blankets while he's here, this is a self soothing technique that helps him cope with stress. Food enrichment toys such as lick mats (under supervision) and hard chew bones are another great way for him to get his energy out! Sleepy is dog selective, so he'll need a home where he can be the star of the show or have careful introductions to any potential furry siblings. He's looking for an active family who can keep up with his playful antics and provide him with plenty of love and attention. If you're ready for endless laughter and a whole lot of love, Sleepy might be the perfect pup for you!💘

Hi there, my name is Sesame! I'm a 1 year old American Pit Bull Terrier dude and I'm ready to ROCK! I've got tons of energy and I'm super smart, but I'll admit, I'm still learning the whole "manners" thing. Sometimes I get so excited about exploring the world with a leash that I need a little redirection (a fun toy usually does the trick!). I love to learn new things and I'm a total goofball with my family. If you're the adventurous type who can keep up with me and teach me some awesome tricks, I'll be your most loyal (and entertaining) sidekick! 🐾🌟

Happy Adoption Story: Abby and Tony (the Tiger)

Abby and Tony the cats have adjusted to their new home after being adopted in December 2023. Sometimes it takes a little longer for cats like Abby to warm up and lean in to the pets.

"I just wanted to let you know Abby and Tony (fka "Tony the Tiger) are doing well. Tony warmed up to his new humans within their first few weeks here. Abby took a bit longer to come out of her shell, and six whole months to let us pet her ... which it turns out she really enjoys! It's a joy to watch them play and we're so glad to have been able to bring them home together." - Amy

Hi there, I'm Colin! I'm a sweet and sensitive soul of a dog who takes a little time to warm up to new people and places. I'm a quick learner and eager to please, so I'm sure I'll excel in positive reinforcement training. I'm looking for a patient and understanding family who can give me the time and space I need to adjust. I would thrive in a calm and predictable home with a consistent routine. I'm a bit wary of new people and situations, so I would do best in a household with older children or adults who can respect my boundaries. Also I can't live with cats, please and thanks! I have so much love to give, and I promise to be your most devoted friend once I feel safe and secure. 💕

Jude is a 14-year-old sweetheart of a cat searching for a cozy retirement home to adopt her. This lovely lady is a bit shy at first and would do best in a quiet environment.

A calm home with comfy spots to nap and patient adopters willing to let her settle in at her own pace would be ideal. Could you be the purrfect match for this lovely lady's golden years? 💛

Meet Hank! This handsome 1.5-year-old pit bull boy is a real sweetheart once he gets to know you. He can be a little shy at first, but with a few gentle pets and some tasty treats, he'll warm right up and shower you with affection. Hank is a very treat-motivated pup, but fair warning - he gets a little overexcited and tends to take treats hard, so watch those fingers! He's working on his manners and would love a patient family to help him learn. Hank loves to chase small animals, so we recommend none in his adoptive home. Could you be the perfect match for this lovable goofball?

Jensen is a 3-year-old German Shepherd dog looking for a new adopter. Jensen is a bit of a mystery. He's quite nervous at the shelter but loves to explore his surroundings with his nose. While hesitant with people, he'll curiously approach to within a couple of feet before retreating, showing a conflict between his desire to connect and his fear. Jensen needs a patient and understanding family who can give him the space and time he needs to build trust. He's motivated by treats, which will be a valuable tool for building a bond and working on confidence-building exercises. A quiet home with a predictable routine will help him feel safe, and a family who can read his subtle cues and respect his boundaries will be key to helping him blossom. If you're experienced with fearful dogs and ready to provide a loving and supportive home for Jensen, please come meet him today to see if it would be a good fit. With the right family, this diamond in the rough will shine!
