Someone adopt this perfect pup!! Rex is around 8 mos. old & under 40 lbs. He’s spent his entire puppyhood in the shelter but every day he proves what a great boy he would be in a home. He’s so smart & eager to please. He absolutely loves other dogs and would make a fun BFF for your fur-baby. He’s sweet & gentle with every person he meets. He’s just a happy boy who doesn’t even know how much better a home would be. Who wants to show him?! Let’s get Rex the family he needs during this young phase of his life!

🐾Alumni Update🐾
Shania was a stray mama with a litter of 10 puppies. She was instantly a shelter favorite because of her absolutely precious personality and we loved seeing her adopted & on her way to the easy life she had never known. Her parents renamed her Chloe & say, “She is awesome. Best dog ever. So sweet and cuddly!!” These photos say it all💗 The 1st one is her as a homeless mother just trying to make it with her babies. Look at the transformation that a loving family and home bring! You deserve it, sweet girl.

🐾Alumni Update🐾
Drax has been settling in great and went on his first hike with his new pawrents🤗 Mom Kimberly said, “It was quiet when we went out, on the way back, dogs everywhere! He was amazing. He has been the star everywhere we go. Even the park ranger loved him.” What a good boy, Drax! Lots of fun times in your future with your great family!

Yes - Jenny is still in the shelter.
Why? We have no idea.
She’s a fan of everyone she meets. She’s got a happy energy with all dogs. She’s even ok with the kitties.
She’s between 1-2 years old & came to the shelter as a stray. She was practically a walking tick farm😩 She was covered in them from her time living outside on her own. Now she’s healthy & happy & knows she deserves a home where she’ll be spoiled and treated like the beautiful girl she is. Come meet Jenny - her joy is absolutely infectious!

♥️Adoption Announcement♥️
Buddy has found his person. This good boy was fortunate enough to stay in a great foster home until his adoption and now he’s off to start his new life with Ryan. These 2 look like they’re already on their way to becoming best friends. We’re thankful for the care Buddy got from his foster family and we know he’s got lots of love ahead at home with Ryan! Thank you for adopting 🙏🏼
