Grinch

Male - Poodle mix - 2-3 years old

Meet the Grinch! He is very new to us, so we are learning his personality. He is very shy in the shelter, but in his foster home, he turned into a velcro dog!

Nutmeg

Female - Lab/pit mix - 5 months old

Meet Nutmeg! She is the sweetest girl with a rough past. She was picked up as a stray with severe demodex mange, so she is bald! We are looking for a medical foster with intent to adopt home while we continue to treat her. Don’t worry - it is not contagious! She is the biggest cuddle bug, and all of our volunteers are in love!

Wagon

Male - Bulldog - 4 years old

Wagon is a male bulldog around 4 years old. He is a new arrival to us. He will be available to meet this Saturday from 10-2pm.

Cider

Male - Pit mix - 2 years old

Cider is a new arrival. He came to us extremely skinny. He has gained some weight and is enjoying all of the love, attention, and extra treats. He is very nervous in the shelter environment and needs a firm handler. Once he is outside, he is the best boy! 

Sir Ruffles

Male - Shar Pei - 9 years old

Sadly, he was surrendered to a high kill shelter when his owner became homeless. He is a sweet and calm older boy but he still has a lot of pep in his step. He is being treated for eye and ear infections and he is ready to find a forever home. We are looking for a home with Shar pei experience. 

Manzo

Male - Husky/Shepherd mix - 1 year old

Manzo is a new arrival who came to us from another shelter. We saw a post needing help from another shelter for a 6 month old husky puppy. We were a little surprised when we got an almost 1 year old husky/shepherd mix. But we are so glad we helped him. He is shy, gentle, and sweet. He loves to go on walks and play in water. Manzo would probably do best as an only dog. 

Luna

Female - Husky mix - 7 years old

Meet Luna! The pretty lady is ready to find her forever home! She loves going on walks and has been very well mannered with us. She is super smart and knows sit and paw

Dulce

Female - Bulldog - 1 year old

Dulce has overcome so much. This sweet girl was found as a bald and skinny stray in rough condition who is now a happy and chunky girl. She was also treated for a rectal prolapse. Dulce is adorable and sweet but your typical bully breed…very stubborn and bossy. We are looking for a home with bulldog experience. She weighs around 60 lbs.

Denver

Male - Cattle Dog mix - 1 year old

Denver is a young dog that has been with us for quite some time. He was exhibiting some guarding behaviors in the home and was sadly returned to us. At the shelter and with volunteers, he is a fun and loving goofball. He loves all the activity at the shelter but definitely needs a firm handler. Denver will either need a single owner home or a home where both people will be the alpha. We know we are looking for a unicorn family for this boy, but in the right home, he will be successful.

His DNA test came back as a cattle dog/sheep dog/eskimo dog mix but to us, he looks like a border collie. Denver has turned into a dog friendly boy who loves playdates with his shelter pup friends. His play dates have been successful with happy go lucky and friendly dogs. He is very playful and would thrive in an active lifestyle. Potential adopters should have breed experience. He is also super smart and wants to please!

Ruby

Female - English Bulldog mix - 5 years old

Ruby arrived to us from another shelter. Ruby is a great walker and loves to be outside! She is super food motivated and loves people…she loves them fiercely. Ruby has been a gem at the shelter but has shown guarding behaviors in the home. Her best chance at a happily ever after would be a single person home. She would also prefer not to share her attention with another dog. We know we are looking for a unicorn, but we think this sweet girl is worth it.

Marley

Female - Shiba Inu mix - 4 years old

Marley arrived to us after she was on the run as a stray for 3.5 months! She has been decompressing and getting all of the love with our volunteers. Marley is your typical Shiba Inu who is stubborn and quirky. She takes some time to warm up to new people, but once she does…she is your best friend who just wants belly rubs. One of our volunteers has taken Marley for a couple sleepovers and said she was amazing…a perfect couch potato who just wants love.  Marley would do best in a calm and quiet home. Marley’s adopter should have experience with nervous dogs and a physically fenced in yard. Marley seems okay with cats but we always recommend slow introductions. Marley will be available by appointment only.

Sora

Female - Pit mix - 2 years old

Sora came to us very sick with neurological issues. She could barely stand up and she was not eating. She is now eating healthy meals and walking better however, this special girl will always be a little wobbly.

Sora loves attention and she loves to be with people. She is currently our “office dog” and she gets attention from our volunteers all day long. However, Sora has some behaviors that can be misinterpreted because of her neurological issues. Sora would do best with a family that is home more often than not and also with a fenced in yard where she can be let out to potty frequently. Sora would benefit from a home that’s willing to go on the journey of learning and training with her so she can continue to grow. She’s a true rescue experience and someone is going to be very lucky and privileged to go on that journey with her…..and get to stare at those radar ears every single day! Sora will be available by appointment only.

Dogs Coming Soon

These dogs are not ready for adoption yet, but they will be soon! Stay tuned while we evaluate their medical and behavioral needs and figure out any specific requirements. Applications can be submitted online before meeting them.
