Dogs for adoption

Ringo

  • Male
  • Rottweiler cross
  • Approximately 6 months old.
  • Ringo is a laid-back, easy-going pup with a heart full of love and a brain built for learning. This clever boy has already picked up some basic training and is eager to keep growing with a family who’s ready to guide him through puppyhood and beyond.
  • He’s going to be a big dog, so he’ll need a home that can offer him structure, consistency, and plenty of space to stretch those legs. Ringo thrives on positive reinforcement and will blossom with continued training and socialization.
  • If you’re an active family looking for a loyal companion to join you on daily adventures, Ringo might just be your perfect match. He’s ready to explore the world with you - are you ready to meet 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!
