Jeni
Meet Jeni! This sweet girl is searching for a forever home where she can finally put down roots. A bit shy at first, Jeni’s heart is full of love, and she’s eager to learn and grow with her new family. With her graceful, deer-like prances and fuzzy, floppy ears, Jeni is a picture of elegance. She’s young and full of potential, but she’s also had a tough start, bouncing from home to home. What she needs now is a patient, understanding person to show her the ropes and shower her with love and consistency. Jeni would do well in a quieter environment, slowly being introduced to new experiences so she can blossom on her own time. With patience and love, Jeni will show you her true colors as a loyal and loving companion. Could you be the one to give Jeni her happily ever after?

Meet Stanley! This gentle giant came to us as a stray – severely underweight, scared, covered in sores, and a little stinky, but with a heart of gold. Since he joined us at the shelter, Stanley has not only gained some much-needed weight but also his confidence! He is as smart as he is goofy, frequently tumbling over for belly rubs. He loves to play, go on long walks, and is eager to learn all the tricks. Stanley would love to come home with you so he can get his medicated baths, work for treats, and snuggle with you all day long. His ideal home would be with someone patient and willing to give him the structure he needs as he learns what it means to have security and a loving home. If you dream of a loyal companion who’s your biggest cheerleader, Stan’s your man!

Dave
In foster
I was tied to a dumpster near a junkyard and left with so many wounds all over my body. I’m understandably a little nervous at the shelter, but I’m so easily won over with a single treat and a nice little head scratch. If you want a dog who’s going to get stopped on every walk to hear how handsome he is, I’m your dude! A place to snuggle up with you is all I’m looking for – I’m an easy to please kind of guy and can’t wait to find a family of my own!
Size: 60 lb., but a little underweight
Energy level: Medium, a nice walk and some training tires me out
Kids: Ages 16+
Dogs: Not for me!

In foster
Meet Putter! This sweet senior is looking for a second chance at life with a family who will love him the same way he will love them – unconditionally! Putter may move slower than he once did as a spry pup, but he is full of spunk and spirit. He gets along with everyone – four-legged friends included! Putter would prefer a home where he does not have to climb a lot of stairs and has a spot where he can get cozy. Putter’s gentle spirit and kind nature continue to amaze and inspire us. Will you give this senior pup the life he deserves?

Deborah
In foster
Meet Deborah! This young pup is full of smarts and sweetness, and is looking for a forever family who will show her the ropes. We suspect Deb is a Rhodesian Ridgeback with her beautiful black snout and expressive wrinkly forehead. These dogs are loyal family members, affectionate, athletic, and smart – just like our Debbie! She is currently in a foster home with two dog siblings and loves to play, walk, and lounge in the sun. She’s a quick learner and eager to please, but being young, she can be shy around new people and animals. She is looking for a forever family that will help her socialize with new experiences and continue to build up her confidence. With your love and guidance, Deborah has the potential to grow into the perfect family dog, bringing you endless joy and companionship.
Size: 30 lb. but will grow – she’s just a pup!

Ralphie
In foster
I may look like a big tough guy, but I’m soft as mush for the people I love! I’ve had a rough past including being on the run in the bitter cold winter last year but the team here is doing their best to find my perfect home. I’m a bit of a shy dude at first and it might take a visit or two to warm up to new people, but I’m trying really hard to be the best me I can be. Someone who has patience to help me learn is a must and in return you’ll get endless cuddles and zoomies that’ll make your day! I know I can make someone happy and I’m hoping it’s you!
