![]() ChrissyAKA Christmas is an 8 yr old senior gal who was surrendered alongside her housemate Pebbles (who we recently pulled). This sweet mama spent years being used for breeding and was then dumped when no longer "useful". At a petite size of only 47 lbs, she enjoys light walks & people watching. She will often bark with excitement when she sees you but can be timid with new people. She was indifferent to dogs/cats and would do best in a quiet, adult only home. She needs peace, patience & love. | ![]() SamOur adorable 4-5 year old labradoodle(or doodle mix) is super friendly and loves all people. He walks beautifully on a leash and is said to be good with other dogs (further testing being done). He is still learning to like his crate & getting used to a structured routine. He can be nervous around loud sounds so a home without small children would be best. | ![]() CarsonCarson is 6 years young, housetrained, non-destructive, & listens incredibly well. He is a well mannered gentleman when it comes to taking treats, food or toys. He was surrender with his housemate (Melony), but would do best as the only dog. |

![]() LilyLily is almost 3 years old and weighs 113lbs. She is sweet, goofy & loving her freedom after spending a year in a shelter as a stray, being adopted out & then returned when her family couldn't meet the needs of her large breed. Lily is dog friendly & passed all temperament testing. She would do best in a home with no small children (due to her size/strength), an family that will provide structure, & a fenced yard where she can run free. She is spayed, UTD on vaccines & microchipped. | ![]() MelonyThis sweet senior is just over 9 years old and has the kindest soul. Melony is dog & cat friendly. She was surrendered with her housemate (Carson). Once she warms up her happy tail-wagging side shines through. | ![]() PiperThis adorable girl is just 7 1/2 months old & 33 lbs. Her previous family could no longer care for her, but our amazing board member stepped up and opened her home. She is already pottying outside, enjoying her toys and enjoying quiet time in her crate. Piper is spayed, UTD on vaccines, microchipped & dog-friendly. |
![]() ChampThis 2 year old handsome boy arrived to a shelter as a stray. He was loosing weight and having anxiety in the shelter. We knew we had to step in and the kennel wouldn't be the right fit, so we sent Champ to a board & train program. He will be able to decompress, gain confidence & work on obedience/leash skills. He is dog friendly, has no resource guarding, loves people and is a quick learner. A home with older teens or adults, no cats, and a dog that can match his energy level would be best. | ![]() CeceThis beauty is only 9 months old and was passed around a lot as no one could commit to her. She appears to be in great shape and was clearly well taken care of, she's sweet, friendly and loves all people. She's said to be good with other dogs but any match will need to be carefully considered. Like any puppy she needs a family who can provide structure so she can thrive working on basic commands, crate training & leash walking. | ![]() ToffeeToffee appears to be a Cane Corso mix, just under a year old. She was found as a stray with another dog (though it seems there may have been a scuffle before going to the kennel). She passed all her temperament tests and is eager to please. She walks well on a leash and will be continuing her training with our volunteers at the boarding kennel. |
![]() HowieThis charming 5 1/2 year old is tall, lean & absolutely handsome. He has a playful energy that made him a volunteer favorite at AHS-Popcorn. He loves agility, attention and pets. He's good with other dogs and would be best with older kids due to his size & energy level. | ![]() RidleyDog friendly, loves people, and is an absolute heartthrob. He is the perfect size and will lean in for pets and even roll over for belly rubs. He is currently decompressing at our founder's home while we search for a foster or forever home. | ![]() ZaneThis sweet 6 year old boy was found as a stray with old scars & broken teeth. Weighing in at 43 - we'll be giving him some much needed TLC to put on some weight. He was recently diagnosed with Subaortic Stenosis, a serious heart condition that can lead to sudden death or congestive heart failure. We are URGENTLY looking for a fospice home for Zane to be able to live out his days in a quiet, peaceful home with people to give him lots of love & affection. We will provide everything for his care. |
![]() JoeA 5 year old pittie mix, who was found as a stray weighing only 35 lbs. He's battling anemia, dehydration & parasites. Despite the clear neglect he faced previously his spirit shines bright and he loves everyone he meets just looking for love & affection. He gets so excited for his walks and is currently with a volunteer where his journey to health can continue with special food, daily fluids & ongoing vet care. | ![]() WallaceYoung, friendly & incredibly handsome at around 3 years old. He has stunning merle marking and loves going for walks to show them off. Wallace's perfect home would be one that is an adult only or older teens & the only pet so he can really shine as the good boy he is. He is currently in boarding and our volunteers are going to be working on his leash manners, basic commands and seeing if we can get him more comfortable coexisting around other pups through pack walks. | ![]() Oliver BluThis adorable 50 lb meatball is looking for a forever home. His bulldog, low rider mix makes him the perfect pint size companion perfect for short walks & chilling out. He is crate trained, housebroken & building up his endurance. While he isn't reactive to other dogs from a distance, he would be more comfortable as the only dog & would thrive in an adult home or a quiet home with older teens. |
![]() KringleKringle is around 1-2 years old and an absolute love. He has no food guarding. Kringle is currently in boarding and is working hard with our volunteers to learn to be the best boy so he can find his forever family. | ![]() BooneThis sweet boy was in dire straits, his stress caused him to lick & pace so much that he has raw & bare patches on his legs & backside. He is severely underweight at only 43 lbs but has shown us despite everything he is a gentle soul. He had his initial vet appointment where he met strangers with nothing but trust. Tested well with female dogs and was non food guarding. He needs a quiet space where he can heal fully. | ![]() KodakJust 18 month old, this young pup is full of energy. He loves to play ball & will trade nicely for treats. Kodak's journey to the shelter was a tough one-his owner who clearly loved him, became homeless and had to give him up. Since he is still a pup he could benefit from a family that has time to work on his training so he can reach his full potential. He is a quick learner and already has a great "sit" & "down". |
![]() REDRed is 3 years old and will be looking for his forever home. He is extremely smart and catches on quickly. He loves to learn new things. Red loves stuffed toys but they don’t seem to last too long ?. He LOVES playing catch and is even great at releasing the ball. Red loves a good game of tug too! He is crate trained and extremely housebroken. He is great on the leash but gets fearful with a lot of noises which is improving week by week. Red absolutely will benefit from having another dog! | ![]() NalaThis happy girl is around 17 months old and is listed as a lab mix. She is amazing in the car, passed her temperament tests, and has no resource guarding. She walks nicely on leash but is around 73 lbs so she does need a strong handler. A home where she can be your one & only pet is best but is showing potential around other dogs. | ![]() Pooh BearThis sweet boy is under 3 years old and was found abandoned, leashed to a pole. He is currently with a volunteer who says he is the perfect house guest as he is non-destructive, crate trained, house broken and LOVES his naps! He is dog friendly but due to his timid nature we would recommend no children for him. |
![]() LUNAThis pretty gal is around 8 years old. She has the most beautiful dark coat. She is approaching her golden years so a low key home where she can enjoy her favorite things(napping & relaxing) is what she's looking for. She is potty-trained, quiet & non destructive in the home. A warm, adult only (or teen approved), without other pet home is what would be best for our wide toothy smiley girl. | ![]() DempseyThis handsome, tall & lanky boy is looking for his forever home. He is under 2 years old and and loves his toys, food puzzles and going on walks. He is ready to be your adventure buddy as his foster parents have learned he loves the water & exploring. He is both dog & cat friendly. | ![]() BellaThis tiny beauty is about 5 yrs young and sweet as pie. She loves cuddling in her bed and playing with her stuffies. Bella is looking to be your only princess. She has the cutest zoomies and is extremely smart. |
![]() DOZERThis handsome boy is about 2 years old . He has been staying with one of our volunteers and is working on being the perfect pup. He is very smart and loves treats. He is super playful with typical puppy energy. Dozer loves playing catch and running around in the yard. He must be the only pet in the home and is recommended with older kids. |
