Wardrobe Enthusiast:

Ahoy Mateys! I’m Pirate, and I’m searching for my FOREVER crew!

I’m an adorably scruffy mixed fellow who loves to play with other dogs! I’m around 6 months old now and roughly 35 lbs of pure love, fun, and puppy kisses!

Don’t worry, my eye patch isn’t real!

I am crate trained and working hard on my potty training, doing great with it while on my foster family’s routine. I thrive on a routine! I’m still just a young pup learning the ropes, but I’m trying my very best to be the goodest boy!

Now, here’s the part of my story that makes my little pirate heart sad…

Meet Dexter, aka Pup Pup! ❤️

Dexter is a super friendly, happy-go-lucky pup with a wonderfully well-rounded personality! He’s social, confident, and independent, but he still likes to keep tabs on where his people are. He’s never met a stranger and greets new friends with a wagging tail!

Dexter enjoys tagging along with his foster mom on car rides and gets along great with dogs of all sizes. He loves playing with his furry friends, tackling piles of leaves, and settling down with a good bone to chew.

Introducing Bugsy, an adorable 27 pound, 6-month-old Shepherd mix with the most stunning ice-blue eyes you've ever seen!

Bugsy is an incredibly sweet, friendly, and playful boy who loves making new furry friends! He enjoys playing with other dogs and absolutely LOVES his toys. He's also great at entertaining himself, whether it's tossing around his favorite toy or happily chewing on a good stick!

Bugsy's a smart cookie? He knows "sit", and his love for treats makes him eager to learn new things!

Hi, I’m Wednesday!

I’m the sweetest little girl with a heart full of love! My sister Ginger and I are new to the rescue after our previous owner decided they no longer wanted us. We may not understand why our world changed, but that hasn’t stopped me from loving everyone I meet!

I’m incredibly friendly, gentle, and trusting, without a mean bone in my body. All I want is for you to sit on the floor with me so I can shower you with kisses and soak up all your love!

I have so much love to give, and I’m just waiting for someone who will love me right back. This time, forever.

Meet Enid!

A BIG puppy with an even BIGGER heart!

Enid is a playful, sweet girl with so much love to give! She’s a great listener, loves playtime, and has a gentle side that makes her wonderful around kids!

With the perfect mix of puppy energy and sweetness, Enid is ready to grow, learn, and make unforgettable memories with her forever family.

Could Enid be your new best friend? She’s ready to fill your home with endless love, happy tail wags, and lots of puppy kisses!

Meet Bronco!

Bronco is a smart, strong-willed boy with a BIG personality and an even bigger heart! He’s potty trained with frequent outings and absolutely loves being around people. He’s a wonderful mix of playful and cuddly—he’ll happily snuggle up with you, but he’s always ready for some fun too!

One of Bronco’s funniest habits? The second you put all his toys back in the toy box, he’ll immediately pull them ALL back out again. Apparently, Bronco believes toys belong on the floor!

Hi, I’m Ellie!

My life hasn’t always been filled with love, warm beds, and kind hands.

You see, my four siblings and I spent the beginning of our lives living on the streets, just trying to survive. We didn’t know what it felt like to be safe or loved. Eventually, animal control picked us up, and we found ourselves in a shelter. Thankfully, someone saw that we deserved a second chance, and my siblings and I were rescued!

Now I’m learning what it means to be a loved little girl, but I still have a long way to go.

Hey, Everyone! I'm Chestnut!

Hi, everyone! I am new to the rescue so I’m still getting settled into my foster home, so my foster is learning all the little things that make me special! But there are a few things we already know for sure: I’m full-grown, fully vetted, and ready to find my forever home! ❤️

I came to the rescue with my sister Reece, and having her by my side has helped me feel so much safer and more comfortable in this big, new world. I’m a sweet boy who wants nothing more than to be loved, and I’m slowly but surely coming out of my shell!

Meet Reece!

Hi, everyone! My name is Reece, and I’m the new girl here at the rescue! ❤️

When I first arrived at the shelter, I was a very scared girl, and I’m still a little nervous in my foster home. But I’m quickly learning that I’m safe and that there are people who want nothing more than to love me.

Deep down, I really want to be loved. I just need a little extra time to feel comfortable and learn to trust. I’m looking for a patient, understanding family who will give me the time and space I need to blossom into the confident, happy girl I know I can be.

Meet Boomer! Boomer is a 22 pound, 5 month old Lab mix. Boomer started off small from an under-developed esophagus but he is doing well now. He eats from a Kong Wobbler. He is working on manners and crate training. Boomer LOVES playing with sticks, jumping in the creek and playing with his best friends. He and Max are besties. They enjoy flopping around and wrestling and stealing beans from the garden and the fruit from underneath the trees.

Boomer's ideal home would be one with someone who is active and committed to his continued socialization and training. A fenced in yard is a plus.

Boone is the sweetest, most loving boy who is still waiting for someone to choose him. Despite being housebroken, crate trained, great with kids, cats, and other dogs, and having an amazing personality, Boone hasn’t received a single bit of adoption interest. He tries so hard to be the perfect boy, and we just can’t understand why he keeps getting overlooked.

Hi! I’m Sombra!

I’m a very playful girl who LOVES getting outside to run and have fun! I’ll chase a ball around the yard—and sometimes I even bring it back! I absolutely LOVE the water and would happily spend the day at the lake with you!

I’m also very treat-motivated, so snacks and I are already best friends!

My story didn’t start out very happy. I was found wandering after being shot with a BB/pellet gun, and sadly, no one ever came looking for me. But thankfully, I’m safe now, my wounds have healed, and I’m ready to start the next chapter of my life!

Hi! I'm a wiggly bundle of love looking for my forever home. I may be a little puppy, but I have a big heart! I'm a very smart girl and I'm learning to go to the door and scratch when I need to go potty. I'm still working on my potty training, so I'll need a little patience and encouragement as I keep learning.

I love to talk to you—especially when I don't get my way! I have lots of personality and always like to let you know what I'm thinking. I'm also a big snuggler and my favorite place to sleep is right next to you. If you're looking for a sweet, cuddly, and playful best friend, I just might be the perfect puppy for you!
