🤎 MEET LEWIS — A GENTLE GUY LOOKING FOR A GOOD PLACE TO LAND

Lewis is a young dog with a lot of growing up still ahead of him. And while he may not be the type of dog who demands the spotlight, there’s something especially endearing about this handsome boy.

Lewis is friendly and gentle, and he seems to appreciate a calm, kind approach. He has a sweet expression and those wonderfully floppy ears that give him plenty of personality without him having to say a word. ❤️

Lewis is also a bit of a homebody! 🏡 He’s okay with shorter car rides, but longer trips and extended time in the car aren’t really his idea of a good time. He’d much rather enjoy the comforts of home than spend hours on the road. If your idea of a good life involves a comfortable home, familiar routines, and enjoying the simple pleasures together, Lewis might be just your kind of guy.

At his age, Lewis has plenty of time to discover all the good things that life with the right person can offer—comfortable places to rest, regular walks, affection, patience, and the simple security of knowing he has someone he can count on.
He doesn't need to be the most outgoing dog in the room. He just needs someone willing to let him settle in, get comfortable, and show them who he is at his own pace.

Lewis is 1 1/2 yrs. old, weighs 71 lbs., and is neutered, microchipped, heartworm tested and vaccinated.

Some friendships begin with a quiet hello. Meet Cinnamon. 🧡🐾

With her beautiful tortoiseshell coat and bright green eyes, Cinnamon is easy to admire. This shy girl may need a little time before she feels comfortable letting you get to know her.

At approximately 2–6 years old, Cinnamon is looking for someone who will let friendship develop at her pace. A cozy hiding spot, a predictable routine, and gentle company would give her room to settle in without feeling rushed.

There’s something special about earning a shy cat’s trust, one small moment at a time. If you have patience and a place in your heart for Cinnamon, come meet her. 🏡💛

She is spayed, microchipped, and vaccinated.

A little patience could be the sweetest gift you give Sugar. 🖤🤍🐾

With her bright green eyes, white bib, and pink nose, Sugar is a beautiful girl who deserves a chance to feel comfortable and secure.

You don’t have to rush a friendship for it to become something special. Come meet Sugar and see if you could be the person who helps her feel at home. 💛🏡

She is spayed, microchipped, and vaccinated.

🐾❤️ RAMONA — A LITTLE PATIENCE, A LOT OF LOVE! ❤️🐾

🥰 Ramona is a beautiful girl with a gentle side that's well worth getting to know.
Ramona enjoys affection, especially some wonderful ear rubs, and she's happy to spend time with someone who makes her feel comfortable and secure.

❤️ Ramona is looking for someone who understands that trust is something you build together. She may need a little time and patience as she settles into a new home and learns that she's safe and loved. A calm, understanding person who will let her adjust at her own pace could make all the difference for this sweet girl.
Ramona will also need a home where her safety is a priority. She should always be supervised when outdoors, even in a fenced yard, and kept securely leashed when out and about. With a little extra attention to keeping her safe, she can enjoy her outdoor adventures while building confidence in her new surroundings. 🐕💕

Daphne has her little hideaway. Now she needs a home to put it in. 🧡🐾

With her orange-and-white coat, pink nose, and wonderfully long whiskers, Daphne is looking especially lovely peeking out of her cozy bed!

This friendly, playful girl is approximately 2–6 years old and weighs 8.2 pounds. She is litter box trained and good with children and other cats, giving her future family some lovely qualities to look forward to.

A few toys, a comfortable place to nap, and people to share her days with—we’d love to see Daphne enjoying all of it in a home of her own.

Come meet Daphne. That sweet face could become a familiar part of your every day. 🏡💛

She is spayed, microchipped, and vaccinated.
