Canine Companions Available for Adoption
We
try to keep our animal pages as current as possible, however, animals
are
adopted on a daily basis so availability changes frequently. If you see
an animal you are
interested in, or want to check on other available animals, please
call us or come in during our Adoption Center Hours!

Bailey
2 Year Old Hound Mix
Neutered Male
SIZE/WEIGHT: Medium/29 lbs.
REASON HERE: My owners were not home enough for me
KIDS: 10+
DOGS: Some (better with calm, mellow ones)
CATS: NO
ENERGY LEVEL: Medium/High
SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS: Separation anxiety; destructive chewing
when left alone; cannot be crated, left in yards alone, or especially tied out
on a run. Someone with hound experience is preferred.
SUMMARY: A very sweet hound who doesn't like to be left alone.
Needs someone who is around most of the time and will provide the exercise and
attention he needs. Good with dogs and people and will make a loyal
constant companion!

Calvin
~5 Year Old Welsh Corgi
Neutered Male
SIZE/WEIGHT: Small/24 lbs.
REASON HERE: I didn't get along with the other dog in the home.
KIDS: 13+ (some handling sensitivity)
DOGS: Some
CATS: NO
ENERGY LEVEL: Med/High
SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS: Neutered 6/23. Leash walks only
until 7/3
SUMMARY: This sweet boy came to us because he didn't get along with a dog
in his previous home. He would do well in an active home with teenagers.
Calvin loves being around people and would prefer to spend most of his day
with them rather than spend a lot of time home alone. He would do great
in a semi-active home with older children. |

some items)
DOGS: NO
CATS: NO
ENERGY LEVEL: Medium
SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS: Doesn't get alone with some dogs.
Doesn't like being left alone. Guards some items. Adopter will
receive a free behavior consul prior to adoption.
SUMMARY: Peaches is a very sweet, affectionate girl. She loves
being with people, but doesn't do well with some dogs and has an unknown
history with cats. She does guard some of her treats and doesn't like
being left alone. She would do well in a semi-active home with
teenagers. She will surely make a nice addition to the right home who is
willing to devote time to her. |
