This sweet lady’s name is Sissy, she is currently being held in a foster home and waiting for her person! She has a wonderful typical shy lab behavior but warms up with routine. Sissy has severe anxiety during storms and is heart worm positive, both of which will require regularly given medication for the rest of her life. Whoever adopts her will need to be willing to regularly visit the vet for checkups. She has anxiety and will need to be kept on preventative so she doesn’t get heart worms again. We are working on her heart worm treatment and can discuss further if there is interest in adoption! Let’s find this sweet baby a home!

SEARCHING FOR LICENSED RESCUE🐾❣️

This sweet duo is Lilly (cream) and Brooster (brown), these little love bugs have had a rough start. Both of these pups came to us in terrible condition, severely emaciated, overgrown nails, dirty, and in search for someone to love them. Since their stay at the shelter, we have successfully put healthy weight on both dogs and given them some much needed R&R. Lilly and Brooster have grown up together in the same home and don’t know life without one another. Unfortunately we know that it may not be possible for them to spend the rest of forever in the same home. That being said, we want to try every option before having to separate them. They love to run and play in the yard and still have so much light and love despite what they have been through. Most importantly after losing their family the one thing they have left is their beautiful personalities and EACH OTHER.

We are currently still in the process of getting all of their vetting care. Appointments to finish their vaccines is scheduled for the 29th of this month. If you know of any rescues who would be willing to help out these sweet babies please send them our way! Any interest should be directed to our page and we can discuss further! Sharing is appreciated!
