Dogs for adoption

Wookie

  • Male
  • Catahoula X Labrador
  • Approximately 1 year old
  • Looking for a dog who’ll melt your heart and brighten your days? Wookie is your guy! With his gentle soul, loving nature, and calm, cuddly vibe, he’s the kind of companion who makes life better just by being near.
  • Wookie is the biggest sweetheart—he loves nothing more than curling up beside you, resting his head on yours, and soaking up every bit of affection you’re willing to give. He’s beautifully social with other dogs, well-mannered, and has an easy-going temperament that makes him a joy to be around. He’s not just looking for a home—he’s looking for a heart to belong to.
  • If you’ve been waiting for a loyal, affectionate best friend who’ll love you unconditionally, Wookie might just be your perfect match. Come meet him—you won’t want to leave without him.

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!
