Congratulations to Dandelion on finding a furever home filled with love and excitement where she can be both a farm dog and a beloved family dog - the perfect blend for a guardian dog. ♥🐾 She was adopted earlier this month and is living the puppy dream now.

Thank you for adopting from our shelter!

Bramble - now Bo - was adopted earlier this month and is happily living his best life with his new best friend. We are so happy for him and grateful for the patience this gentleman showed, coming back the the shelter multiple times over the course of several months, waiting for the right dog for him to come along. Bramble arrived, they met, and that was that - it was the perfect match. He waited for the stray hold to lift, and came back to get his pup just as soon as he could. It was a match meant to be and a wonderful reminder for why we do what we do.

Thank you for adopting from our shelter and giving a good boy a great life. ♥🐾

Mr. Tovin spent Memorial Day weekend with us and then went home with his mama. This big sweet love is now microchipped so the next time he jumps the fence, we will be able to return him home even faster. Thank you to everyone who helped us get connected with his owner over the weekend. It takes a village, and y'all are amazing!
