Despite his size, he truly believes he’s a lap dog and enjoys snuggling up close with his people. He appears to be potty trained and seems friendly with other dogs.

​​March 16th: Felicia

Meet Felicia! Looking for a loyal best friend with a heart as big as her smile? Felicia is your girl! This sweet 50-pound pit mix is full of love, personality, and happy energy. She’s an outgoing, affectionate pup who absolutely adores people and enjoys making new friends wherever she goes.

Felicia loves cuddles, attention, and long walks by your side. She can get a little excited on leash at first, but she walks much better with a harness and is eager to learn. She’s incredibly smart, already knows how to sit on cue, and would thrive with someone who enjoys continuing her training and helping her shine.

This playful girl is dog friendly, enjoys toys, and has done wonderfully in foster care. She’s also potty trained, making her an easy addition to a loving home. Whether she’s out exploring or curled up next to you for snuggles, Felicia is happiest just being with her people.

Felicia is ready to leave shelter life behind and find a family who will love her forever. Could that be you?

​March 10th: Luffy

Meet Luffy! Luffy is a 55-pound pit mix with a big heart and an even bigger love for cuddles! This handsome boy is friendly, affectionate, and happiest when he’s close to his people. Whether he’s leaning in for pets or curling up beside you, Luffy is the kind of dog who forms strong bonds and loves being part of the family.

He’s great on a leash, making walks enjoyable and easy, and he already knows several basic commands like “sit.” Luffy is smart, eager to please, and would love a home where he can continue learning and spending quality time with his humans.
Luffy is also dog friendly, though he may be selective with some male dogs, so proper introductions are important. With his loving personality and gentle nature, he has all the makings of a wonderful companion.
If you’re looking for a loyal best friend who will shower you with affection and always want to be by your side, Luffy may be the perfect match for you! 

​March 4th: Memphis

Meet Memphis! Memphis is a sweet pit mix who has lot of energy and loves to play with his favorite humans! He absolutely loves toys, and is a huge fan of playing tug and fetch. Memphis may pull on his leash initially due to excitement, but after a few minutes he calms down and is a good walker. This sweet boy seems to know his name and comes when called, and is also great at showing off his sit and stay tricks. 
.
Memphis is also a huge cuddler, and loves to snuggle with his people! He can get a little amped up when meeting new people, but calms down after a few minutes and then becomes a huge snuffler. Memphis is not a fan of other dogs at this time, however with slow intros may have the potential to make new canine buddies. Right now we recommend a home without other dogs (and also no cats!), or one with lots of experience introducing dog selective dogs.
.
His foster said: "Memphis really was the goodest boy ever while he was here this weekend. He loved meeting everyone that came over and playing with them. He gets a little amped up at first but then calms down and is just the biggest cuddle bug ever. I know that he's going to find the best home and make them happy. Thank you for letting us give him so much love for the weekend!"

February 24th: Tobias

Meet Tobias! Tobias is a sweet mixed breed whose main goal in life is to make you laugh! This goofy boy loves to spend time hanging out with his favorite humans, whether that be chilling on the sofa, playing a rousing game of tug, or going on an exploratory walk! Tobias can be a bit excited at first and does tend to pull some when walking, however he's great at sitting when asked and calms down after a few minutes.

Tobias knows his name and loves to play fetch and tug, and enjoys curling up with his humans after he gets his energy out. He is very food motivated and has been known to steal human snacks, so he will need some training to learn to leave them alone. Tobias has shown some uncertainty towards men, so a slow approach that allows him to make the first steps in interaction is ideal.

His foster said " Tobias knows his name and is protective of you and his toys. He's very loving and wants to be touching you or giving you kisses!"

February 18th: Boomer

***ADOPTED!***

​Meet Boomer! Boomer is a sweet hound dog who loves people and other dogs, and who thrives on cuddles and playtime! He's a very smart boy who picks up tricks super quickly, although as he has spent much of his time growing up in a shelter environment he is still working on thing like potty training. Boomer can be a bit excitable but is a good listener and will readily sit when asked, and while he sometimes pulls on the leash he is easily redirected.
.
Boomer can be a bit shy at first, but warms up quickly (especially if you have snacks!) 

Boomer has been to foster and his foster said "Boomer is the smartest boy! He loves to cuddle or play – what ever you feel up to doing!" Come meet Boomer today!

February 10th: Cashew

Meet Cashew! Cashew is a great listener and very much wants to please! He is working on learning commands, and while he can be a bit of a leash puller he checks in frequently. Cashew loves female dogs in particular, and is quick to initiate some polite play! With people Cashew can initially come off as a bit shy, but give him a few minutes (and a few treats!) and he warms up quickly.

​Cashew can come off as energetic in his kennel, but settles quickly after just a few minutes of play. He is unknown with cats but did well with a hamster while in foster care. Most of all Cashew loves to be around people, and he especially loves to snuggle! Come meet this sweet boy today!

His foster said "Cashew is a great dog suitable for any dog owner, and would make a great first dog due to his sweet temperament!"

January 29th: Midnight

Meet Midnight! Midnight is the kind of dog that makes a house feel like home. He did amazing in foster care and quickly settled into a routine like he’d been there forever. One of his favorite things to do is lay around on the couch, relaxing and enjoying the good life. When it’s playtime, Midnight lights up! He really loves playing tug-of-war, especially with another dog in the home.
.
Midnight is playful, fun, and enjoys having a buddy to interact with. Midnight also comes with some great manners already in place, he is potty trained and crate trained, which makes him an easy fit for a new family. He’s a sweet, well-behaved boy who’s ready to bring love, laughter, and cozy couch naps to his forever home!

His foster says "Midnight got along great with my dog anf they enjoyed playing tug together - he pottied immediately on leash even during a snow storm and was overall a great dog!"
