You can't buy happiness... But you can adopt a Husky!!!
Everyone meet Alaska! Alaska is one of our newest pups here at the shelter, he came to us a little while ago as a stray who is now eager and ready to find his own furever home! This giant fluffy ball is extremely adventurous and loves to go for walks that allow him to bring out his inner wolf 🐺😂 well at least he likes to pretend he has one, the typical husky if you ask me 😂 this overgrown cotton Ball is eager to find a home that will get him out and let him embrace that wild side! Even if his wild side is just lots of sniffing and unsuccessfully chasing squirrels! Interested in meeting Alaska? Call! Put in an application! Or even come in to visit, we are open Tuesday-Friday 12-5pm, Saturday-Sunday 10-3pm! Come on who hasn't wanted to own their own 'wolf' before?! 😂🐺

Strength, Loyalty, and endless butt scratches 😂 that's what you can expect from Champ!!
Everyone meet Champ one of our longest residents here at the shelter, and honestly we don't know how he is! This sweet boy has been a perfect gentleman the entire time! He loves getting as much attention as he can get, he likes some other dogs, and he is extremely smart! Champ came to us August 8th as a stray and has been waiting for his forever home ever since. Every dog deserves their own home but with how long he has been here we are all rooting for this boy to finally have his turn. Interested in giving Champ his home? Put in an application! Call! Or even come in to visit him! We are open Tuesday-Friday 12-5pm, Saturday-Sunday 10-3pm!! Don't keep Champ waiting!

Who could say no to that face?! 😭❤️
We still have 5 out of the 7 puppies left at the shelter all excitedly waiting for their own furever homes! These little guys are 8 week old coonhound mixes! Each and every pup in this litter is extremely confident, and playful, they love to explore and are very curious about the world and people! So if you're looking for the perfect playful companion come on in and see them! I'm warning you though, they will steal your heart faster then you can say 'puppy love' ❤️ there are currently 4 males left and 1 female! We are open Tuesday-Friday 12-5pm and Saturday-Sunday 10-3pm! We hope to see you soon! Help us get these fur balls their furever homes!
