Punkin
Breed: Domestic Shorthair/ Mix
Gender: Male
Age: Adult
Punkin is a handsome and easy-going orange tabby looking for a loving new home. He's friendly and calm, and does well with other cats and dogs. The only thing Punkin doesn't like is children, so he is requesting a more mature household. Punkin is only 6-years-old, neutered, and ready to meet his new family!
Ike
Breed: Chihuahua/ Mix
Gender: Male
Age: Adult
My name is Ike and I'm looking for a new home. I am a very sweet boy that can be a little shy to start. Once I am comfortable I enjoy giving kisses and going for walks. I am most comfortable sitting in my person's lap, but it is very important that I get walked instead of carried around. This will keep me active and in good health. I am asking for a home with children over the age of 8 years as I can be sensitive to over-handling and can get overwhelmed. Those little guys are just a tad to grabby for me. I am about 3 years old and weigh 8.5 pounds. Please come and meet me today!

Choo Choo
Breed: Domestic Shorthair/ Mix
Gender: Male
Age: Adult
Hello there! My name is Choo Choo and I'm ready for a new home after spending some time on the streets. Livi9ng on the streets is no fun and I'm ready to upgrade my lifestyle. Good thing I was found by a good samaritan, as they found me with a good size wound on my shoulder and took me to the vet. Thankfully it was not much to worry about, but please no more injuries for me. I'm getting sick of dodging those cars. I am a very sweet guy who really enjoys human companionship. I hope you can appreciate that. I am about 8 years old and weigh 8 pounds. Please come and meet me today!
Lakota Sioux
Breed: Labrador Retriever/ Pitbull, American
Gender: Female
Age: Adult
Who's a good dog? Who's a pretty girl? Who wants to go for a walk? I do. I do. Pick me. Pick me. I'm Lakota Sioux, and I'm so pleased to meet you. I am the sweetest, most gentle lady here at the shelter. When I am not delighting you with my great looks and calm demeanor, you should know that I enjoy a good game of tug, love walks, and have the sweetest disposition. They invented the term "volunteer favorite" for dogs just like me. My new home should not have any small animals, cats, or other dogs though. They are a little too much for me. Good thing I love people! I cannot wait to bond with you and be your favorite companion ever. Come down and meet me today! I'm certain we can change each other's lives. I am 7years old and weigh 60 pounds.
Opal
Breed: Jack Russell Terrier/ (Purebred)
Gender: Female
Age: Adult
My name is Opal and I'm on the hunt for a new family. I am a sweet lady that still has quite the pep in her step and love going for walks. The shelter doesn't know too much about me because I came to them as a stray. I have proven that I am a sweet lady during my stay here and should make a great companion for just about any family. Please come out and meet me today! I am about 12 years old and weigh 13 pounds.
Gingersnap
Breed: Chihuahua/ Mix
Gender: Female
Age: Adult
My name is Gingersnap and I am the cutest little thing around! I am quite the socialite and love everybody I come in contact with. I enjoy playing with toys and taking a stroll around the block. I really enjoy my treats, but it's very important to not let me get any heavier. These little legs can't carry much more. If you're looking for a sweet little lap dog, then look no further. Come out and meet me today! I am about 4 years old and weigh 7 pounds.
Jefe
Breed: Pitbull, American/ (Purebred)
Gender: Male
Age: Adult
Hi there! My name is Jefe and I'm looking for a new loving home. Unfortunately my owners were no longer able to care for me and I have found myself here at the shelter looking for another. I am a very sweet young lad that adores people and other dogs. I have even lived with children. I am a sensitive guy that can get overwhelmed easily, but once I am comfortable I am the sweetest pumpkin ever! I hope you come visit me today! I am about 3 years old and weigh 57 pounds.
Joey
Breed: Cocker Spaniel/ Mix
Gender: Male
Age: Adult
Hello there! I'm Joey and I'm an easy going old gent, about 10 years old. I'm looking to spend my golden years with a nice home who doesn't mind that I just want to mostly lay around. Maybe I could adopt a nice person who would help me drop a few lbs since over the years I've put on a bit more then I intended to. I like to snuggle and wouldn't mind some dog or cat siblings. I'd prefer no young children because my joints can be achy in the mornings and evenings at times and I don't want to have to worry too much about a child accidentally bumping me on them. If you think you may be a fit, come meet me today!
Diego
Breed: Chihuahua/ Dachshund
Gender: Male
Age: Young
My name is Diego and I'm in search of a true family! I ended up here at the shelter after someone found me running the streets and I was terrified. The shelter has been very overwhelming for me with all of the new faces and smells. I will need a quiet home where I can adjust slowly to my new environment. Once I feel comfortable and you have earned my trust, I am a real sweetheart that enjoys going for walks. I hope you're looking for a lap dog, because that is where I like to be. The shelter recommends that we attend reward based training classes to help build my confidence, so I can adjust to new things easier. Also, children in the home should be over 10 years old. Those little guys are a little too much for my style. I am a diamond in the rough, waiting for someone to polish me off. Please come and meet me today! I am about 1 year old and 15 pounds.
