Jack Jack absolutely lives for affection. Whether it’s curling up beside you, laying his head on your chest, or following you around just to be close, he makes it clear that all he wants is to love and be loved.

He’s also great with other dogs and does wonderful with children, making him a perfect addition to a family looking for a loving and gentle companion.

***LONG TIMER***

Hi… my name is Prada. šŸ’›

I’m only about a year and four months old, but I’ve already learned that life isn’t always kind.

I don’t know what it feels like to have a family that’s truly mine. I don’t know what it’s like to fall asleep every night knowing I’m safe, loved, and never going to be left behind. But I dream about it every day.

I’m a beautiful brindle and white Pit Bull mix with a heart that still believes there’s someone out there for me. Despite everything I’ve been through, I still greet people with a wagging tail and hope in my eyes. I still believe my person is coming.

I love being around other dogs and would be so happy to have a furry friend to play with. More than anything, though, I just want someone who will love me and never give up on me.

I do struggle a little with food. Sometimes I worry that what’s mine might be taken away, and I can become protective during mealtime. The shelter thinks it’s because of things I experienced before I arrived here. I’m not trying to be difficult—I’m just scared sometimes. With patience, understanding, and kindness, I know I can learn that I’ll never have to worry about my next meal again.

The shelter isn’t sure yet if I’m house-trained or crate-trained, but I’m young and ready to learn. I just need someone willing to teach me and believe in me.

I’ve had my first round of vaccines, flea and tick treatment, and dewormer. I’ll need to come back for my spay appointment, but I’m ready to start my new life as soon as you are.

Every day I sit and wait, watching people walk past my kennel, hoping someone will stop and see me. Not just another shelter dog—but a girl who has so much love left to give.

Maybe that someone is you.

šŸ’› Adoption Fee: $53

Please give me the chance to know what it feels like to finally be chosen. I promise to love you with my whole heart for the rest of my life.

Love,
Prada 🐾

Meet Carolina šŸ’•

Carolina is a 4-year-old hound mix who found her way to us as a stray, so her past is a bit of a mystery. What we do know is that she has a truly sweet and gentle soul just waiting to shine in the right home.

Carolina has a calm demeanor and tends to take life at her own pace. She isn’t the type to demand attention right away—instead, she prefers to quietly observe and build trust on her own time. Because of this, she’ll need a patient and understanding adopter who will give her the space and kindness she needs to come out of her shell.

While we’re unsure how she does with other dogs, cats, or children, Carolina’s soft nature suggests she may do well with slow, proper introductions. Her big personality is there—you just have to give her the time and love to let it blossom.

If you’re looking for a loyal companion and have a heart full of patience, Carolina could be the perfect match for you. 🐾

Her adoption fee is $122.42.

***ADOPTED***
Hi there, I’m Jade šŸ’š A 3-year-old Pit Bull Terrier mix with a big heart and an even bigger love for my people!

I was owner released, but it wasn’t anything I did wrong. I’m just waiting for my true forever family—the one who will love me as much as I’ll love them.

If you’re looking for a loyal, affectionate shadow… I’m your girl! I can be a little clingy, but that just means I really, really love being close to my humans. Whether we’re cuddling on the couch or just hanging out, I’ll be happiest right by your side.

I’m great with kids and get along well with other dogs, too! Cats, though… they’re just not my thing, so I’d do best in a cat-free home. I’ve got some manners under my belt already—I know how to ā€œsitā€ and give ā€œpawā€ like a pro!

My adoption fee is $115 plus tax, and I promise to fill your life with love, loyalty, and lots of snuggles 🐾

***LONG TIMER***

Jessie Girl is a 7-month-old Labrador Retriever mix with a gentle heart and a loving spirit. She came to us as a stray and, sadly, was never reclaimed. Now she’s hoping her next stop will be a forever home filled with love.
This sweet girl is doing well with her kennel mate and has shown herself to be calm, affectionate, and incredibly kind. Jessie Girl can still be a little nervous while she adjusts to new surroundings, but once she feels safe, her loving personality shines through. She’s the type of dog who will form a deep bond with her person and love you with her whole heart.
Because Jessie was found as a stray, we are still learning about her. We don’t yet know how she does with kids or cats, and we’re unsure if she is house trained or crate trained. With her young age and gentle nature, she has lots of potential to learn and grow in a patient, caring home.
Jessie Girl is heartworm negative, up to date on vaccinations, and weighs about 42 pounds. She’s ready for someone to give her the love, patience, and security she deserves—and in return, she’ll give you a lifetime of loyalty and affection. šŸ¾šŸ’›

Jessie Girl's Adoption Fee is $115.50 plus tax

Meet Tanner: A Gentle, Energetic Old Soul

Tanner is an 8-year-old hound with the spirit of a young pup! While he may be an "old man" at heart, he's still full of energy and ready to make the most of every day. Tanner came to the shelter as a stray, so his history is a bit of a mystery. But one thing is for sure—he’s been doing wonderfully with the dogs he’s been kenneled with here. He's friendly, social, and seems to be a true gentleman at heart.

Though we don’t know much about how Tanner does with cats or children yet, his sweet demeanor and calm nature lead us to believe he would do well in a family setting. He’s already proven that he’s a great companion, especially to those he shares space with!

Tanner is HEARTWORM NEGATIVE, has received his first round of vaccines, flea and tick treatment, and dewormer. He's all set to start the next chapter of his life. Best of all, his adoption fee is NO CHARGE, THANKS TO PAWS IN LYON COUNTY making him the perfect addition to a loving home.

If you're looking for a loyal and affectionate companion, Tanner might just be the perfect fit for you! Come meet this lovable hound and give him the forever home he truly deserves.
