Freckles

Breed: Australian Cattle Dog (Heeler)/ Border Collie

Gender: Female

Age: Adult

My name is Freckles and I'm ready to build a bond with you! I am a very sweet and loyal lady that loves to run and play! If you have a toy, I will be your best friend and never leave your side. If you are looking for an exercise buddy and constant companion, then I'm your girl. Hope you don't mind some kissing and cuddling too! I am all about playing hard and loving hard. I am asking for a home with children over the age of 8 years old because sometimes I can find it hard to share my toys and it can be a little overwhelming if someone tries to steal them from them. I hope this isn't a deal breaker. I promise that with some good reward based training I will make a great family dog with time. Please come and meet me today! I am about 1 year old and weigh 51 pounds.

Emma

Breed: Pitbull,Staffordshire Bull Terrier/ (Purebred)

Gender: Female

Age: Adult

Hi. My name is Emma. I am a sweet older lady around 8 years old, but I still have a lot of gas left in the tank! I love toys, sometimes a little too much, and could play tug for hours or just run around with a toy in my mouth and be as happy as can be! I love every person I meet and am a very personable lady. I have gotten into a pickle recently and do have some special requirements for my adoption. I will need to be the only love in your life, meaning no other animals in my new home. I will also need an secure, fenced yard. Please speak with your adoption counselor about the special guidelines of my adoption. I would also much prefer a house with older kids over 10. I am very active, and will still need a good run or long walk during the day to meet those needs. If you would like to know more about me, please come down to the shelter for a visit!

Tomato

Breed: Domestic Medium Hair/ Mix

Gender: Male

Age: Young

Tomato is a big bruiser of a guy at just over 13 lbs and 1.5 years old - so he's still growing! Tomato had a misspent youth tom-catting around and getting into fights with other cats; now that he has come to the shelter, he is ready to give up his street life and look for a home that will keep him inside only or with an outdoor enclosure for his lounging enjoyment and fresh air. He is a little nervous of new places and things, but he really likes people. Tomato will be neutered before he goes home, ask about this beautiful boy today!

Zip

Breed: Pitbull, American/ Mix

Gender: Male

Age: Adult

My name is Zip. Bet you are wondering why that is? See, when I get excited, I zip around the yard as fast as I can, mouth open and skin flapping in the wind as I run around as happy as can be! When you see it, you'll have an even bigger smile on your own face seeing me enjoying myself. When it is time to calm down, I do that pretty well too. I can sometimes be shy around new people, but if you are soft and patient, I warm up really quickly and become your new best friend! I know how to sit and lay down, and am very food motivated if you want to try and teach me some new tricks. I need a home with no cats and kids over 6. I am 4 years old and weigh 59 pounds.

Greta

Breed: Pitbull, American/ Mix

Gender: Female

Age: Adult

Hello, my name is Greta! I have been waiting patiently since July 3rd for a forever home, could it be with you? Don’t let my senior age fool you, I am quite the active gal. I enjoy daily walks and meeting new friends like the kids walking to school every morning, my tail just wags and wags when I see them! I’m also very content cuddling and watching Netflix and I’m the perfect size for cuddling on the couch with you. I am crate trained but also do great when left alone in the house by myself. I get along very well with my foster dog brothers. I have some health concerns that aren't uncommon in older gals like me: I have a limp and some lumps and bumps, the most concerning of which have been removed. I'd love the opportunity to spend the rest of my days in a happy, loving home. I am around 10 years old and weigh 50 pounds. I am currently in foster care. If you are interested in me, contact my foster mom at [email protected] to find out more about me

Mr. Scruffs

Breed: Terrier / Mix

Gender: Male

Age: Adult

My name is Mr. Scruffs. And you guessed it-it's because of my wonderful beard! I am very shy at first, but once I get to know you I am a wonderful little guy who's ready for an adventure. I walk well on a leash, and would love a home that will continue to take me on long walks to explore and get exercise. My hope is to find a very calm, patient new home that can help me build more confidence. It would be best if my new home have no kids under 10. With an appropriate meeting, having a canine brother or sister may be a good thing! I hope to see you down here soon. I am 2 years old and weigh 8 pounds.
