Update: adopted 🥳

It's absolutely heartbreaking to see a 4-month-old puppy on the URGENT list. 😔💔

Teddy is just beginning his life, yet he's already spending it in a shelter. No puppy should know what it's like to grow up behind kennel doors. And before the shelter? We can only imagine what he may have endured.

This sweet little guy is very timid and fearful. It's clear he hasn't had many people he could truly trust, and the shelter environment only adds to his uncertainty. Every day, he watches new faces walk by his kennel... but no one stays.

Check out the videos in the comments and you'll see him starting to open up with a staff member. His playful, happy personality begins to shine through, and it's impossible not to smile watching him. 🥹🐾

That is the real Teddy.

He doesn't need more time in a shelter—he needs patience, love, and a safe place to grow into the confident dog he's meant to be.

‼️‼️ Teddy is on the URGENT list for 7/21 at 2pm. Just 4 months old.. this cant be the end.

Update: Adopted🎉

This is the face of a dog who's so close to losing hope... 😭💔

Rocky has been at the shelter for over a month, and with each passing day, the shelter takes a little more out of him.

When he was surrendered, his previous owners shared that Rocky had been friendly with both the children and dogs he had met. But life in the shelter has been overwhelming, and it's understandable that he's become unsure of who he can trust.

Rocky is a very nervous boy who would thrive with someone willing to give him the gift of time. He needs someone who understands that trust isn't built overnight and that slow introductions can make all the difference.

The best part? Rocky is incredibly treat-motivated, making it a wonderful way to build his confidence and earn his trust.

There is so much more to Rocky than what you see through the kennel door. The shelter isn't showing you the real him—it’s showing you a dog who's overwhelmed and longing for someone to believe in him.

Rocky is on the URGENT list for 7/21 at 2pm ‼️💔

Update: Safe with the boarding program!🎉

Disel was on the last urgent list... and he still has NO interest. 💔😞

I truly don't understand it. The shelter is filling up fast, and we're terrified this will be Disel's final extension. If no one steps forward, his story could end before he ever gets the chance to experience the life he deserves.

Disel desperately needs some love and TLC. You can see his spine, he's far too thin, and he appears to have some skin issues. But none of those things define who he is. What defines Disel is his sweet, affectionate heart. 🥹❤️ According to his previous family, he was friendly with adults, children, and other animals.

Will someone please take a chance on Disel? Share his story! We're so scared that no one is coming... but we're still holding onto hope that his hero is out there. 💔

Disel only has until 7/21 at 2pm to make it out of the shelter safely 🙏🏼

Update: Buddy is safe in foster care and still available for adoption ❤️

How is this precious boy only 1 year old and already been surrendered TWICE? 😭💔

Just when Buddy thought he had found his forever home, he found himself right back at the shelter... confused, heartbroken, and wondering what happened. We'll never be able to explain to him that it wasn't his fault.

Despite everything he's been through, Buddy is still full of love and ready to give his whole heart to someone willing to give him a real chance.

His previous adopter shared some wonderful things about him:
🐾 Loves playing fetch
🚶 Loves going on walks and getting plenty of exercise
🥰 Thinks he's a lap dog
🏡 Kennel trained
✨ Knows the command "free" & sit
🐱 Has been around cats before and showed only slight curiosity with no aggression

Please help us make sure his next home is his last home. 🙏🏼 Whether it's through fostering, adoption, or sharing his story, you could be the reason Buddy gets the second chance he deserves.

‼️ Buddy is on the URGENT list for 7/21 at 2:00 PM. His time is running out, and he desperately needs a hero. Please don't let his story end here.

Update: Beans was returned to the shelter through no fault of her own.. a family member was allergic to her. This makes her urgent again ‼️

Update: Beans has been adopted 🥳 thank you to her adopters for saving her!!

We wish this were an April Fools post, but sadly it’s not—Beans is now on the URGENT list. She only has until 4/10 at 2pm 💔

Stories like Beans’ really hurt. She was surrendered because her owner is facing serious medical issues and could no longer care for her. That’s such a heartbreaking decision to make, and it’s why we’re determined to do everything we can to get Beans out of the shelter safely. We know our community can help make that happen.

Right now, Beans is nervous and timid in the shelter. She was brought somewhere unfamiliar and watched her owner leave without her, and all of that confusion and worry is completely understandable. She just needs someone patient who can help her feel safe and become her best self again. 💛

She hasn’t officially been dog-tested yet, but the shelter can help facilitate a meet and greet. A foster, adopter, or rescue could truly save her life!

Update: Molly is safe in foster care and still available for adoption 🤩

I briefly saw Molly yesterday, and this was her face when I walked by her kennel. Do you think she knows she’s on the URGENT list? 😭 or maybe shelter life is just too overwhelming and scary for her.

She was surrendered alongside her sister, Tera, after their owner passed away… You can’t help but think they’re waiting for their person to come back for them, not understanding why they haven’t.

Staff notes say Molly is obedient and tends to open up more once she’s outside in the play yard. And when she sees her sister Tera, she really starts to blossom. It’s also noted that she does well with children and cats. I bet if you gave her a comfy bed, some treats and love, she would feel right at home!

Molly is on the URGENT list for 4/14 at 2pm 💔 Can someone step up to help her? Even sharing her story can make a huge difference—it might help the right person see her and say, “YES!”

Update: Beans was adopted 🥳 Brooks is safe in foster care and still available for adoption! Thank you so much to everyone for sharing this post and helping save their life!

Both Beans & Brooks are extremely urgent. They only have 24 hours left. They were previously granted an extension, which gave them a little more time and a second chance—but sadly, no additional extension has been given 💔

Tomorrow could be their last meal, last walk, and last moment of human interaction…

Who’s ready to step up and save a shelter dog? To give them a fresh start and remind them that love still exists, no matter what they’ve been through 😢

You have the power to change their entire world in a single moment.

Update: Adopted 🥳

Tera got caught in an unfortunate situation, and now she’s landed on the URGENT list ‼️

She arrived at the shelter with her sister after their owner sadly passed away. Looking from the outside, Tera had a loving life before this heartbreaking change. She’s noted to be good with children and cats—she just needs a little leash training, which can easily come with patience, repetition, and daily walks. It’s so hard to see such a good girl end up on the list. ☹️

What makes it even more heartbreaking is how scared Tera is in the shelter. She’s so overwhelmed that she has to be carried outside. Just imagining how frightened she must feel breaks my heart. But once she gets outside, you can see her start to relax and finally catch her breath.

Tera only has until 4/14 at 2pm 💔
Please consider going to meet her. Even a short-term foster could help!

Update: Scooter is safe and has been pulled by Three Little Pitties Rescue 🥳 please honor your pledges to them for Scooters care. It may be a long road to recovery. Thank you 3LP for saving him 💛 https://www.threelittlepittiesrescue.org

Scooter is on the URGENT list 💔

As if his story couldn’t be any more painful, Scooter now only has until 4/10 for a rescue or adopter to step in and save him.

Scooter was recently taken to the vet due to pain and immobility in his hind legs. He isn’t able to walk or stand much right now and has to be carried. The shelter staff are doing everything they can to keep him comfortable with pain and anti-inflammatory medication, but he truly needs more care than the shelter can provide.

Despite everything he’s going through, Scooter is such a sweet boy with the happiest little tail wag. 🥹

Pledges for dogs like Scooter are incredibly important—they help attract rescues who may be able to pull him and provide the surgery and care he likely needs. Please help us reach out and tag rescues so he can safely leave the shelter. Scooter still has so much life left to live ❤️

Update: Cherry is safe in foster care and still available for adoption 🥳 Tater has been adopted ❤️

Time is not on their side right now… and neither is any interest. 😭

In just 24 hours, they could be walked for the last time—and it won’t be to the outside yard. As of this morning, none of them have any interest, which is incredibly scary.

These are great dogs. They just need someone to see their potential and be the right match for them. It’s also so important to remember that dogs need time to decompress after leaving the shelter. Bringing a dog home and expecting them to be perfect right away just isn’t realistic. They need patience, understanding, and a chance to adjust.

Short-term or long-term fosters can truly save their lives. All supplies are provided by the shelter. ✨

Be a part of a life-saving story. ❤️
