Dogs for adoption

Storm

  • Female
  • Husky X German Shepherd
  • Approximately 5 months old
  • Storm is a stunning Husky x German Shepherd pup with a calm, affectionate nature and a clever little mind that’s always ticking. She’s slightly more reserved than her sister Mabel, but she’s incredibly smart and quick to learn — the kind of pup who’ll thrive with positive training and mental enrichment.
  • Storm’s eyes are truly captivating — one a striking blue, and the other a unique blend of blue and brown that adds to her already enchanting presence. She’s looking for a loving home that understands her breed mix and can provide her with the exercise, stimulation, and guidance she’ll need as she grows.
  • If you’re ready for a loyal companion who’s as beautiful as she is bright, Storm is waiting to meet you.

Mabel

  • Female
  • Husky X German Shepherd
  • Approximately 5 months old
  • Mabel is a gorgeous Husky x German Shepherd pup with a heart full of love and a tail that never stops wagging! She’s slightly more energetic than her sister Storm, always ready to play, explore, and bring joy to everyone she meets. Her affectionate nature makes her a cuddle champion when the day winds down.
  • As a young pup from two intelligent and active breeds, Mabel will thrive with consistent training, daily exercise, and plenty of mental stimulation. She’s looking for a home with someone who understands her breed mix and is ready to guide her into becoming a well-rounded adult dog.
  • If you’re after a loyal companion who’ll keep up with your adventures and shower you with affection, Mabel might just be your perfect match!

Jewel

  • Female
  • Bull Terrier cross
  • Approximately 8 years old
  • Jewel is a mature lady with a calm, cruisy vibe and a heart full of love. She’s incredibly people-oriented and thrives on affection — always happy to be near her humans, soaking up cuddles and companionship.
  • While she gets along well with other dogs, Jewel isn’t overly interested in playing with them — likely due to her age and laid-back nature. That said, she still has a playful spark and enjoys the occasional romp when the mood strikes! Jewel would be a wonderful match for someone looking for a sweet, gentle soul to share quiet moments and easy strolls.
  • If you're looking for a loyal, affectionate companion who’s as precious as her name, Jewel is ready to shine in her forever home.
  • We are unsure how Jewel is with cats or stock.

Wookie

  • Male
  • Catahoula labrador
  • Approximately 1 year old
  • Wookie is a happy-go-lucky guy with a zest for life and a whole lot of love to give! He’s playful, affectionate, and always up for a good time—whether it’s chasing toys, exploring the outdoors, or soaking up cuddles from his people.
  • With his easy-going nature and boundless energy, Wookie will thrive in a home that can offer him daily exercise, mental stimulation, and plenty of companionship. He’s still got some growing to do, so now’s the perfect time to help shape him into the well-rounded dog he’s meant to be.
  • If you’re looking for a fun-loving buddy who’ll bring joy and laughter into your life, Wookie might just be your perfect match!
  • We are unsure how Wookie is with cats or stock.

Penny

  • Female
  • Rottweiler
  • Approximately 2 years old
  • Playful, sweet, and oh-so-clever—Penny is a little star in the making! She’s already a great listener when it comes to her basic commands and is pictured here offering her paw in exchange for a treat (what a lady!). Her love of food makes her incredibly easy to train, and she’s eager to please.
  • Penny is full of affection and thrives on human connection. She’ll do best in a home that can offer her daily playtime, gentle guidance, and lots of love. With her bright mind and loving nature, she’s ready to become someone’s best friend in no time.
  • If you’re looking for a loyal companion who’s both fun and trainable, Penny might just be your perfect match!
  • We are unsure how Penny is with cats or stock. 

Noodle

  • Female
  • Mastiff cross
  • Approximately 5 months old
  • This sweet and affectionate pup is bursting with love—and energy! Noodle is a young girl with a big personality and an even bigger future; she’s likely to grow into a large dog, so she’ll need a family ready for all the fun (and challenges) that come with raising a big, bouncy companion.
  • Noodle is full-on in the best way: playful, curious, and always ready for action. She’ll thrive in a home that can offer her plenty of daily exercise, mental stimulation, and most importantly, consistent training to help her grow into a well-mannered adult dog.
  • If you’re looking for a loyal, lively best friend and are ready to invest the time and energy into helping Noodle become her best self, she might just be the perfect addition to your family!
