ADOPTABLE DOGS

XENA 6 year old female GSD. We cannot say enough about this girl she is so affectionate and kind. She loves very deeply and awards you with kisses. She walks incredibly on leash. Has great recall but Does not like other dogs so must be your one and only pet in the home. We recommend a home that is experienced with the breed.

LUCY is a 2.5 year old female Great Pyrenese. She came to us with her brother Max. They are a bonded pair so we prefer they be adopted together. They would need a fenced in yard as they tend to roam. They enjoy being outside but prefer to spend some time in the house around people as they both are VERY affectionate. They would spend the entire day at your side getting pets. LUCY does not like dogs other than her brother so she would need an owner mindful of that.

BUTTERCUP is a four year old female terrier. She came to us a stray and was never claimed. She does have food allergies but is doing well on special dog food. She gets once monthly allergy injections. She is a petite girl is very sweet and loves people. She is not a fan of other dogs. She does have anxiety when kenneled so she is looking for a home where she will never be kenneled. As you can imagine she is not doing well at the shelter. Buttercup would love to find a forever home where she can get away from the chaos and confinement of the shelter. She really needs a hero.

Max is a 4 year old male Great Pyrenese. He is Bonded with his sister Lucy. Max and Lucy came to us when their owner could no longer care for them. He is a gentle giant LOVES everyone, is amazing with children and loves soft comfy things. Max has been diagnosed with Irritable Bowel Disease and will need to be fed a prescription diet and take steroids for the rest of his life. He is so worth the extra things he needs to make sure he stays healthy. He and Lucy prefer to be in a warm cozy home than outside. They do not like the cold or rain. Max is terrified of loud noises(thunder, fireworks, gunshots, loud vehicles). Dont let his size fool you he thinks he is a lap dog and will come lay his head in your lap for some cuddles every chance he gets.
