Lucky

Breed: Spaniel/ Mixed

Gender: Male

Age: Young

Hello, our names are Lucky and Lady! We are the dynamic duo who is seeking either a well prepared family who wants to take both of us or perhaps its time to retire our show and get adopted into separate homes. We are both sensitive dogs that can be friendly with people, love our food, and can't wait to start a new adventure! My shelter friends are recommending a home without children under the age of 12 as we can be nervous of handling. Please ask about us! We are around 2 years old and are healthy.

Snuggles

Breed: Chiuaua/ Mixed

Gender: Male

Age: Adult

So my shelter name is Snuggles. While it might sound silly, I fit the bill. I'm a soft and snuggly little guy weighing in at a whopping 6 lbs. so I'm the perfect size for just about anyone's lap. I'm shy with new people at first, so the shelter recommends a home without noisy toddlers. Respectful kids who will allow me time to get to know them might be okay. The shelter says I’m about 2 years old and that I did well sharing a room with another small dog so I might like a companion in my new home. If you are looking for a lap dog and someone to snuggle with, you should come check me out.

Herbie

Breed: Domestic Shorthair/ Mixed

Gender: Male

Age: Adult

My name is Herbie. I am a handsome older gentleman at around 10 years old and who the shelter staff adore! I have a beautiful coat, and love to rub and bump on my friends for attention. The only thing I ask is that you do not have dogs, and give me lots of attention-that's all! Come on down to the shelter to say hello. I'm positive you will fall in love!

Rascal

Breed: Chiuaua/ Mixed

Gender: Male

Age: Elderly

Hi there! My name is Rascal and I'm looking for a quiet home or hospice foster that I can spend my golden years in. My son, Fuzzy, and I are deeply bonded and have never been separated. We are looking for a home where we can be together. Unfortunately our owner could no longer care for us and we have found ourselves looking for a new home. I'm a very laidback dude that pretty much just likes to chill out and have my bootie scritched. As you can see, I do have a hard time getting around, and my eyesight and hearing are starting to fade, but I still have a lot of pep in my step. The shelter has set me up with some good meds to make sure I'm not in pain. Please ask your adoption counselor for more details. I am at the ripe ole' age of 16 years old and weigh 55 pounds.

Twiggy

Breed: Domestic Shorthair/ Mixed

Gender: Female

Age: Adult

Hello everybody, I am here to say my name Twiggy is a silly name for a full figure gal like me! I may not be the stick figure of Twiggy but I am a sweet older gal at around 10 years old. I like my pets and prefer to join you on your lap rather than a pick up. We middle aged gals deserve the respect! Come take a look at me today.

Brutis

Breed: Chihuahua/ Dachshund

Gender: Male

Age: Adult

The name is Brutis. And I am one hunk of a guy! I came to the shelter with my canine-buddy Shadow, and I think that if I am not adopted with him, I would really benefit from going to a home with a same-sized companion-the bigger guys scare me a little bit! I have been friendly with strangers, and I love to walk on my harness and go explore! Squeaky toys are definitely the way to make my funny personality come out. If I sound like the guy for you, come on down to the shelter and say hello! I am 2 years old and weigh 16 pounds.

Jarryd

Breed: Domestic Longhair/ Mixed

Gender: Male

Age: Adult

Jarryd is seeking a quiet home where he can relax and be comfortable. He has been shy during his visit to the shelter and so we are requiring any children in his new home be 10 years old and older. He is a neutered male black Domestic Longhair. Jarryd is about eight years old and has a short kinked tail. Ask about Jarryd at the shelter today!

Wally

Breed: Pitbull, American/ (Purebred)

Gender: Male

Age: Adult

My name is Wally and I'm looking for an active home that loves getting sloppy kisses! I am a lover and want to make sure that you are ok with public displays of affection. I have some pretty good skills already under my belt, but I'm looking for a dedicated family that can take things a step further. I can be sensitive to some handling and the shelter is highly recommending that we attend reward based classed together to help me overcome these sensitivities. Children in the home are also recommended to be over the age of 12 years old, due to this. However, I love to play and love to eat, so that should make training easy! All around I am a pretty laid back guy that enjoys going for walks and hanging out with my family. Please come down and meet me today! I am a big, beautiful boy that is about 4 years old and weighs 75 pounds.

I need love and affection with lots of playtime to keep my busy mind enriched. I hope your home is the place for me. I am about 3 years old and weigh 15.4 pounds.
