UPDATE - CALVIN HAS LEFT THE BUILDING...with his new family!!! Thank you to everyone who has commented, shared, tagged, and every other action taken! YOU did it and we (and Calvin) thank you so much!

🚨 Euthanasia Deadline Plea 🚨

HELP! We need to talk about Calvin. It's never easy to write posts like this, but transparency is something we value deeply, and we need to bring your attention to a great dog who is struggling. Calvin is a smart, energetic dog with so much potential, but the shelter simply cannot provide the kind of daily structure, activity, and enrichment he needs to thrive.

Calvin needs a permanent home by Friday at 5 PM.

Calvin is smart, trainable, playful, and full of personality—but he is also a high-energy working dog who needs a job, structure, routine, and daily enrichment. When those needs are met, Calvin can be an incredible companion. When they aren't, that energy builds up and he can become very hyper and mouthy.

Calvin previously spent several months at Annie's Ruff House, where he worked on basic commands and showed just how capable he is of learning. He doesn't need someone to start from scratch. He needs someone committed to continuing that work and giving him the consistency and guidance he needs to stay focused and succeed.

Calvin does well with other dogs, and we believe another playful dog in the home could be a great outlet for some of his energy. He also seems to do okay with cats, but he can sometimes be overwhelming to them—especially when he hasn't had enough exercise or enrichment.

Calvin isn't a couch potato looking for a quiet life. He needs a job. A routine. Exercise. Training. Play. Purpose. And a home to call his own.

Calvin is not available for foster placement. This needs to be a permanent solution, and he needs that home by Friday at 5 PM.

If you want to help Calvin, please help us. Share this post. Send it to the active person, working-dog lover, farmer, trainer, or experienced dog owner in your life. Somewhere out there may be exactly the person Calvin needs—we just have to reach them.

Help us give Calvin the chance to leave the shelter for the last time—not for another temporary stop, but for the permanent life he deserves.

🙏PLEASE SHARE🙏

2yrs is too long for a dog to be looking for their forever home 💔🏡 Nyla has been in foster care for most of her life. She entered Kanoa Rescue Foundation’s program when she was only 8wks old & has been looking ever since! She continues to be looked over yet she is such a good dog! 🐶 She is loving, sweet, cuddly, potty trained, & good with other dogs, cats, & kids. She would love to find a home where she will be spoiled, loved, & get to snuggle up in the bed at night.

🗺️ She is currently in a foster home in the OKC Meteo Area but adopters can be located anywhere!

🐶Spayed, microchipped, & up to date on vaccinations/preventatives. She is 2yrs old & a German shepherd/hound mix.

❓If you have any quarantions please drop a comment or send us a PM!
