Brew and Lady are both wonderful dogs who get along great with other pups! While Lady may not be ready for adoption quite yet (soon!), Brew is more than ready for a home of his own. This pointer mix is a happy-go-lucky, friendly, and adventurous boy. Learn more about him or schedule an appointment to meet him on our website!🐶❤️

Good morning from Bubbie!❤️ This handsome, lovable boy is more than ready to finally find his forever home. He adores people, does great with kids, loves a good game of fetch, and is very food motivated and eager to please. He previously lived with other dogs and cats and did great, but has struggled with other dogs at the shelter. Slow introductions or a single dog home are strongly encouraged.

Bubbie is fully vetted, 1.5 years old, about 70lbs, and is a lab/shepherd mix. He’s truly the sweetest boy and will make such a great companion!🐶 Schedule an appointment to meet him on our website.
