Hunter
Beagle Mix
Male • Born 2/8/24 • Neutered • Microchipped • Up-to-date on vaccines
Meet Hunter!
Hunter is a spirited, intelligent Beagle mix who is looking for the right match — someone who understands that great dogs aren’t one-size-fits-all.
He’s a strong, energetic guy who thrives with structure, consistency, and one-on-one attention. In a calm, predictable environment, Hunter shows his best self: he’s affectionate with his person, enjoys quiet companionship, and has already built some solid routines.
He’s mostly house-trained, sleeps through the night, and knows how to sit, wait, and make eye contact before meals.
Hunter bonds deeply with his person and truly shines when he’s given clear guidance and space to decompress. With continued training and a confident handler, he has so much potential to keep growing into a loyal, steady companion.
Hunter isn’t looking for a busy household — he’s looking for his person.
Hunter Is Best For:
✔️ An experienced dog owner who understands strong, energetic dogs
✔️ A calm, adult-only home
✔️ Someone who is home often and enjoys working with their dog
✔️ A person with confidence handling a strong dog on leash
✔️ A home where Hunter can be the only dog
✔️ A lifestyle that values routine, patience, and positive reinforcement
Hunter Is Not the Best Fit For:
✖️ Homes with children
✖️ Homes with other dogs
✖️ First-time dog owners
✖️ Busy or highly social households
✖️ Anyone unable to safely manage a strong dog
Important Note!
Hunter needs placement soon with the right, experienced adopter or foster. His strength and excitement mean he requires someone who can safely manage him and provide the structure he needs. Finding the right home quickly is important for Hunter’s well-being.
Why Hunter Is Worth It:
Hunter may need more attention than some dogs, but what he gives in return is deep loyalty, connection, and companionship. For the right person, he won’t just be a dog; he’ll be a true partner.
If you’re ready to open your home, or even provide a temporary foster placement, and can offer the calm leadership Hunter needs, please reach out today. The right match could change his future.

Mystery
Cane Corso/Lab/Pit Mix
Female • Born December 2025
Meet Mystery, an adorable 8-week-old Cane Corso/Lab/Pit mix with a playful spirit and a gentle heart. She currently weighs about 11 pounds and is expected to be around 70 pounds full grown, making her a wonderful medium-to-large companion.
Mystery is full of puppy energy and loves to play, but she can be a little shy when meeting new people at first. Give her a little time and patience, and her sweet personality quickly begins to shine as she grows more comfortable and confident.
She just arrived and is settling into her new surroundings, and she’ll be vetted soon. Mystery is looking for a loving home ready to help her learn, grow, and blossom into the loyal, affectionate companion she’s meant to be.

Moolah
American Bully
Female • Born 2020 • Spayed • Microchipped •Up-to-date on vaccines
Meet Moolah!
Moolah is a sweet, affectionate Bully girl with a heart full of love. She’s friendly with people, gets along well with other dogs, and is fully house-trained — truly such a good girl!
She adores being around her people and has a gentle, loyal nature that Bully lovers will especially appreciate. Because of her breed, we’re looking for adopters who understand and value the affectionate, devoted personality Bullies are known for.
Moolah also has some ongoing skin allergies. We’ve done skin scrapes and bloodwork, and there’s no fungus or bacteria present. She’s currently on a 30-day course of antibiotics and has received an allergy injection. She may benefit from Cytopoint injections every 4–6 weeks (approximately $80 per injection), and she does well on a salmon-and-vegetable diet.
She’s spayed, microchipped, and up to date on vaccines. A fenced-in yard would be best for her, and she needs a home without children.
If you’re looking for a lovable, loyal companion who brings joy, laughter, and endless affection, Moolah might be the perfect match.

Prince
Pit Bull Terrier Mix
Male • Born 12/23 • Up-to-date on vaccines
Meet Prince!
Prince is a handsome 2-year-old Pit mix who’s up to date on vaccines, neutered, and microchipped.
He’s been with us since April, and in that time we’ve watched him make slow, steady progress after coming from a home where he wasn’t treated kindly. He’s a survivor with a tender heart, and he deserves a family who will give him the patience, safety, and love he never had.
Prince is shy and easily startled, so he’ll need a quiet, predictable home with someone who’s home often and willing to move at his pace. Loud noises overwhelm him, and he's especially afraid of lawnmowers, so a fenced-in yard is a must for his comfort and security.
But here’s the beautiful part: once Prince feels safe with you, he bonds deeply. He becomes the kind of dog who follows you everywhere, gentle and loyal, as if he’s finally found his person.
Prince is truly a special boy looking for an equally special adopter — someone patient, calm, and committed to helping him continue his journey toward trust. If you have a peaceful home and a heart for dogs who need a little extra time, Prince may be the perfect companion for you.

Lil Mama
Pit Bull Terrier Mix
Female • Born 2024 • Spayed • Up-to-date on vaccines
Meet Lil Mama!
On New Year’s Eve, Lil Mama was the last dog in the shelter without a commitment. Her extensions were up, and time had run out. We couldn’t leave her behind.
Lil Mama is safe and already showing us just how special she is. She’s incredibly sweet, playful, and full of happy energy. She loves other dogs, does great with cats, and adores kids. While she’s always ready to play, she also loves to snuggle and be close—she’s truly the best of both worlds.
Lil Mama will make an amazing companion for an active, loving home that wants a best friend by their side.
She has been updated on vaccines and has been spayed and microchipped. She is also house trained.
If you’re interested in adopting or helping support Lil Mama on her journey, please reach out or share her story. Let’s help her find the forever home she deserves.
