Full of energy and enthusiasm, she’s happiest when she’s chasing a ball, catching a frisbee, or joining in on any game you can dream up. Fetch is her specialty, and she’ll gladly keep the fun going as long as you will.

Smart and athletic, Kota embodies everything people love about Border Collies. She enjoys staying active and would thrive with agility, training exercises, hiking, or other activities that challenge both her body and mind. She’s highly intelligent, eager to learn, and already has a great understanding of basic commands.

She loves belly rubs, walks nicely on a leash—especially with a harness—and rides well in the car. Kota is also potty trained and is generally a very quiet dog with minimal barking.

Did we mention she loves fetch? Because she absolutely does! A tennis ball or frisbee is the quickest way to her heart.

Adoption Fee: $250.00

Full Description:

Gilbert is a gentle soul wrapped in a sturdy little pitbull body—a white-coated sweetheart with soft eyes that seem to ask, “Is it okay if I trust you?” Life hasn’t always been kind to him. He came in young, a stray, sticking close to his loyal pal Arnie, unsure of the world but hoping it might finally be safe.

Bashful by nature, Gilbert doesn’t rush into anything. He takes his time, watching, learning, quietly building courage one small step at a time. But behind that timid start is an incredibly loving heart. Once he knows you, he leans in softly, offering the kind of sweetness that feels earned and deeply real.

Gilbert is looking for someone patient and kind—someone who will show him that life doesn’t have to be scary. In return, he’ll teach you something too: how trust grows, how love can be gentle, and how even the shyest hearts can bloom when given the chance.

Cedar

Gender: Male
Entry Date: 04/06/26
Birth Date: 
Adoption Fee: $250.00

Full Description:

Cedar is a young Lab mix with a gentle heart and a quiet spirit. He was found as a stray alongside his friend Clover, who has already found her forever home—now it’s Cedar’s turn to find a family of his own.

Cedar is a very good boy, but he’s extremely shy and still learning that the world isn’t such a scary place. New experiences can feel overwhelming for him, even simple things like doorways, so he’ll need a patient and understanding adopter who can help him build confidence at his own pace.

With time, kindness, and reassurance, Cedar has so much potential to blossom. He’s the kind of dog who may take a little while to come out of his shell, but once he does, the bond you’ll build will be incredibly special. If you’re willing to invest in a “diamond in the ruff,” Cedar just might be your perfect match.

Adoption Fee: $250.00

Full Description:

Kovu is a handsome older Husky with a gentle soul and so much love to give. He came to us as a stray and, although he was microchipped, his previous owner chose not to take him back—something that truly breaks our hearts, because Kovu is such a good, deserving boy.

He has a sweet and loving nature and enjoys being around people, often “talking” in that classic Husky way to share his thoughts. Kovu can be a bit head shy, so he appreciates a calm, patient approach and someone who will respect his space while he builds trust.

Because of this sensitivity, Kovu would do best in a home without young children. With the right person, he will blossom into a loyal and affectionate companion. If you’re looking for a kind-hearted dog who just needs a second chance, Kovu is ready to find his forever home.

Jeanette

Name: Jeanette
Primary Breed:
German Shepherd Mix
Gender: Female
Entry Date: 03/07/26
Birth Date: *11/2024
Adoption Fee: $250.00

Full Description:

Meet Jeanette, a stunning 1½-year-old German Shepherd mix with beauty, brains, and a heart that’s still learning the world can be a safe place. She’s incredibly intelligent, eager to please, and already showing what an amazing companion she can become for the right person.

Jeanette can be shy and unsure at first, but once she starts to trust you, her sweet and loyal personality shines through. She loves being outdoors and would make a wonderful walking partner, hiking buddy, or adventure companion for someone who enjoys exploring by her side.

Sadly, Jeanette was returned after only a couple of days in a home because she was a little too interested in the cats and showed some territorial behavior with another dog. Because of this, she may do best as the only pet in the home where she can feel secure and continue building confidence at her own pace.

She’s learning that not everything is scary or bad, and with patience, structure, and love, Jeanette has all the potential to become someone’s devoted best friend.
