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!
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.
Dulce
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
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.
