Available Dogs

Updated May 15, 2012

The adoption fee for all our dogs is 250.00 dollars, unless otherwise stated.

 

"Dyson"

Dyson is a 1-year old Australian Cattle Dog/German Shepherd X.  He has been neutered, vaccinated and de-wormed.  Dyson is an intelligent and energetic young dog.  He is very eager to please and will be a cinch to obedience train.  He is loving and playful, and he would do great as a family dog.  He is good with most other dogs.  He seems housebroken and he is fully crate trained.  Loves rough housing with the other dogs and playing with toys.

 

"Gia"

Gia is a 1.5 year old Am Staff/Boxer X. She has been spayed, vaccinated and de-wormed. Gia comes all the way from Georgia, where she was rescued the day she was supposed to die. She is very sweet and is extremely affectionate. It was hard getting pictures when she doesn't stray too far from our sides. She is doing great with the other dogs and just starting to learn how to play with toys. A very athletic dog who is eager to please, she would excel at any dog sport or training. Come on out and meet this beautiful girl!

 

"Millie"

Millie is a 10-month old, female beagle.  She is vaccinated and will be spayed before being adopted out.  Here is a description of her from her foster family:

Millie is a young beagle who is experiencing many firsts in her little dog life; First car rides, first interaction with other dogs, first yard to have free reign of, and the list goes on.
She is definitely a different dog than when we first met a short while ago.  The first few days of this fostering adventure were filled with uncertainty for us and for her as it was new to all of us. She has since settled in our life routine effortlessly. She is super-excited to see us when we come home from work, she and Abby, our other dog, are developing  a friendly camaraderie, and she seems content to go along with whatever is on the agenda for the day.

Millie enjoys drives – we have not been on any long ones yet but as long as she has regular bathroom breaks I don’t for see her not being able to enjoy them.  She will chase a ball but she may not bring it back. Currently she runs after our dog, when she chases the ball, and she keeps up quite nicely. Those big, beagle ears flowing in the wind are quite comical. She enjoys chewing on rubber chew toys and seems to self soothe, during downtime, by sucking on her bed. I could also see this happen with a stuffed toy.  She is fairly consistent with letting us know when she has to go outside for toileting. When she has used the bathroom inside, which is not often, it has been our fault for not recognizing her signals early enough. Where Millie is small dog, with a small bladder, we have needed to become better at being proactive in inviting her outside to do her business. We have cats and Millie has been interested in them but has not given chase or been aggressive with them.
As Millie is a young and a true beagle, her enthusiasm for the world around her is her greatest gift and her greatest challenge. Her nose leads the way, sometimes to places and situations that are not ideal, but hopefully a bit more maturity and a loving, consistent home environment should help Millie overcome most of these challenges.

Millie would make a great companion for someone with a nice, fenced in back yard to explore, a warm lap to lay her head after a busy day of exploring, and someone who is content to let Millie be Millie.

We post dogs and cats looking for homes that are still in their existing homes.  We don't assume any responsibility for what is posted here... we are just trying to help out these critters before they end up in the "system."

 

"Patches"

Patches is a 2.5 year old Beagle mix.  She has her vaccines up to date.  She is about 35 pounds, black with brown/golden colouring.
 
When Patches arrived at my house, she was a scared, very nervous and defensive dog, but with a lot of patience, she slowly began to change her ways. She now loves to play, go for walks, laze around, and go swimming. She loves to play with my golden retriever, they get along great. She knows her basic commands, sit, down, and paw. Patches has a lot to offer to someone who has the time to show her the affection she deserves.  
 
I've had Patches for a while now and love her company. I really don't want her to go, but I am willing to allow people to come visit her in my house to see how she interacts with us and our dog, you will love her too!

"Hank"

Hank is a 3 year old pure bred, long haired German Shepherd who is at heart a very loving soul in need of a dedicated and committed home. While his current family loves him dearly, they are unable to give him the time and attention he needs to be the great dog that he can be. Hank has been under-socialized with both dogs and people.  He also tends to be quite protective of his property (house) and food. It is not recommended that Hank go to a family with children or other pets. An ideal forever home for Hank would be a person or persons who are very well experienced working with dogs that need special attention, and perhaps German Shepherds in particular. All that said, Hank is incredibly loyal, very loving with his current owners, very smart and willing to learn. He is overall a healthy boy, just needs lots of exercise to trim a bit of excess weight.

"Babe"

Babe is a 3 year old male cat. He has been neutered and all his vet check ups are all up to date, including needles, etc. Babe took refuge in my garage when he was approximately 7 months old. I was unable to find his owners... no one came forward to claim the dear little thing.   We originally named him Rusty but his name is now Babe given to him by my mother.  I took him to our vets and he was completely looked over.  I wasn’t sure if he was needled and de-wormed, so we had this all done.  Then, I decided to have him neutered and would adopt him out.   Since I have two dogs my mother agreed to look after him until he was healed and in the meantime I would try and adopt him to a family.  My mother became attached she decided to keep him and from that day on they became best buddies.  Unfortunately, Mom can't live on her own anymore, and the cat needs to be place in a new home, since her new home has dogs that aren't accepting of her.

Babe is so gentle and really loves Mom, and I know that he would adapt well in another home. He loves his treats and his wet food gravy. His greatest pleasure is playing hide and go seek  and war in his boxes. Babe is a complete indoor cat and is unbelievably clean. Very independent and enjoys his nice long naps.

Please if anyone can adopt this beautiful little boy you will not regret having him as part of your family.
