Khaki & Jay are ready to find their forever families! ( these dogs are not a bonded pair)

While Khaki and Jay do not need to be adopted together, they both share one thing in common—they’re incredible dogs who have been waiting far too long for a place to call home.

These young pups are everything you could ask for. They’re wonderful with other dogs, cats, and children, making them an easy fit for almost any family. They are active, eager to learn, and truly just want to make their people happy. Their sweet, friendly personalities light up every room they walk into.

As much love as we pour into them every day, a kennel is no place for young dogs to grow up. They deserve their own personal backyards to run in, couches to nap on, and families to love them for the rest of their lives.

Please help us find Khaki and Jay the forever homes they’ve been waiting so patiently for. They don’t need to go together—they just each need someone willing to give them the chance they deserve. ❤️
