Age/DOB:  7/1/2017 
Breed(s)/Purebred: Labrador Retriever  Mix
Colors: Black White
Color Pattern:  
Size/Weight Medium 
Collar Color/Type: Blue Nylon 
Intake Status: Surrender 
Notes: Coal is a recent owner surrender that we are already in love with! This pup went from being an indoor dog to a chain tie out due to the owner's health decline. The sweetness seen in his eyes, he just wants to be part of a family again. Coal has lived with other dogs and seems to do well with new friends, with the exception that he becomes very jealous of human attention. He will grumble and snap. We think he would be best as an only dog. Unknown cat behavior, we only say no small children due to his age and tolerance. I am currently in foster, decompressing. If you would like come and meet me please call up to the shelter first

Available for Adoption: 7/23/2022 
Intake Status: Stray 
Where Found: Bull Run and Wasson Road, Gregory. Found on Monday, July 11th. 
Notes: *In a foster home, call for meet/greet* Talk about a lug head, this big guy was found as a stray by a vet tech who tried to find his owner. With no luck he ended up at the shelter. Bruno quickly showed us what a ham he is, he's quite the crooner too! Bruno does bark to get your attention and when he's excited. This smart pup knows sit, shake, down, he comes when called, enjoys walks (he's strong), loves to romp around the yard, loves to "fish" out of the pool, and has done well with the canine friends he's met, he will not share toys and shows some possessiveness of them. Bruno is a big boy, with a big heart, he loves everyone. We say no small children due to his size and tendency to chew up toys. If you've been looking for a a big pup that doesn't require a lot of work make sure to visit with Bruno Mars! 

Tag Number: tag23-520   
Name: Mulligan  Picture of Mulligan
Gender/Altered: Male Altered
Age/DOB:  2/16/2023 
Breed(s)/Purebred: Shepherd  Mix
Colors: Brown Black
Color Pattern:  
Size/Weight Medium 
Collar Color/Type:   
Intake Status: Surrender 
Notes: It's me, Mully! One might say I'm a ladies man. It's not too far from the truth. I feel more comfortable around women. Slow greetings are best for me as I am a little reserved and hesitant. Men and children make me nervous and I get a little grumbly. My foster Mom lets me know when I am overreacting, and I need to tone it down. I have been in training and little by little, I am gaining confidence. Everyone is saying how great I am doing in class! Mom even says she has seen improvement. I am very smart, and I can learn new things quickly. As an example, it took me 2 weeks before I would jump up onto my foster Mom's lap, but now we have morning snuggles every day. I am not ready for foster Dad snuggies yet, but I will walk over and let him pet me. I just need patience, kindness and someone who is willing to help me navigate through my anxious ways. I would LOVE to go into a home with another dog--my confidence shines big when I have a buddy with me!

Notes: All puppy....Needs work with manners and mouthiness. Stanley was adopted 2 months ago, sadly he's not doing well with the children. We are now looking for placement in an active home, no children, another dog would be great, unknown cat behavior, he's housetrained, goofy, and smart. UPDATE: Since I've been here at the shelter, I now know how to fetch, sit and learn tricks quickly. I do love other dogs. And the dog walkers tell me I walk with grace.

Notes: Bishop is a shutdown pup, his humans failed him in every way. It has only been a couple days, but he is making progress with a few staff members, and he loves other dogs. Bishop has a long way to go before he will be holding his head up high, trusting that every movement you make will not be coming at him, and overall being comfortable with new things. Bishop needs a hero.

Breed(s)/Purebred: Mixed   Mix
Colors: White Brown
Color Pattern:  
Size/Weight Medium 
Collar Color/Type:   
Available for Adoption: 4/4/2024 
Intake Status: Surrender 
Notes: Hazel Grace how sweet be thy name and personality. She's angelic, affectionate, gentle, and ready to give a family all her love. Hazel is gaining trust with new people, she approaches timidly, not fearfully, she needs reassurance that no harm will come to her. Her behavior tells us that someone has not been nice to this baby. Hazel quickly becomes your shadow, longing for attention and kisses. She enjoys having a doggie buddy, and is really coming out of her shell during play time. So much to learn, so much love to give. Hazel spent some time in a foster home to recover from her spay. They said she is playful and energetic but also will lay down and chill, did great in a crate and enjoyed riding in a car. They also found she knows sit and shake!

Intake Status: Surrender 
Notes: Friendly, gentle, smart, great office manners, loves to carry a "baby" around, enjoys sprawling out on every inch of the dog bed.....Pistol Pete is a keeper! Great things come in small packages. But only thing I'm not a fan of is cats/kittens.  

Tag Number: Tag24-391   
Name: Hickory  Picture of Hickory
Gender/Altered: Male Altered
Age/DOB:  10/1/2023 
Breed(s)/Purebred: German Shepherd Dog  Mix
Colors: Black Tan
Color Pattern:  
Size/Weight Large 
Collar Color/Type:   
Intake Status: Surrender 
Notes: Hickory is hoping for a home with shepherd experience to help him be the best pup he can be! Like most shepherd puppies he can be a little snappy/mouthy. He is very food motivated which will help with training, which he defiantly needs. He is having some trouble picking up on the basics of fetch and how to play. Hickory needs an understanding family to work with him, he didn't have the greatest start in life so far- he came to us from another shelter where he had been surrendered with his siblings.
