🚨 CODE RED: WE ARE OUT OF KENNEL SPACE 🚨
Our kennels officially filled yesterday, and several of our dogs are becoming increasingly kennel stressed. While every dog is still getting their required exercise and outings, the noise and full capacity are making it hard for some of them to cope.
We are urgently seeking FOSTERS and ADOPTERS to help us make space and give our most stressed dogs a chance to decompress and thrive.

🐾 HOPS & BARLEY — Our Unicorn Adopter Needed
Hops & Barley has been with us far too long, and the stress is taking a toll on him.
- About a year old, neutered, fully vetted
- Strong, athletic, and would benefit from a fenced yard
- Loves toys and can entertain himself for hours
- A gentle giant who melts for head rubs
- Needs to be the only pet (no dogs, no cats)
- Best with kids 10+
He is such a good dog — he just needs someone to finally see him.

🐾 HAZEL — Resilient, joyful, and ready for her future
Hazel’s past is something we don’t often talk about, but it matters: she was seized from a chain so short she couldn’t even lie down to reach food or water. Despite everything, she is pure sunshine.
- Just over a year old
- Extremely dog friendly
- Pulls on leash, but a no‑pull harness works wonders
- Loves everyone she meets
- Because she zooms like a rocket, toddlers may feel overwhelmed, but she settles beautifully
Hazel deserves a soft place to land after everything she’s survived.

🐾 95 & BUSTER — Our semi‑senior sweethearts
These two came to us after their owner’s mother passed away and he was forced to move out of state. He loved them deeply and did the best he could, but sometimes a lack of resources or education means dogs don’t get the socialization or preventatives they need.
Both need to begin heartworm treatment within the next two weeks, and we have nowhere for them to go.
- Deeply loving, gentle souls
- Need only‑dog homes due to limited early socialization
- Buster may do well with a calm dog — we’re happy to try
- They cannot go together (typical sibling rivalry), though they walk nicely side‑by‑side
They deserve a chance to start the next chapter of their lives with comfort and dignity.

🐾 ASSISTANT TO THE BRANCH MANAGER — Returned and heartbroken
This sweet boy was returned because his former adopter struggled with his need for exercise and structure, which led to stress‑chewing. None of this was his fault.
- Needs a dog friend to help his confidence
- Dog friendly, cat friendly, kid friendly
- Neutered and fully vetted
- Originally trapped with his brother after surviving months on the run in the freezing cold
- Since being returned, he has been deeply depressed, and while outings help, he needs a home to truly heal
He has come so far — he just needs someone to believe in him again.
