❤️🐶 Happy Adopt a Shelter Dog Month! 🐶❤️

Looking for a fun, smart new best friend? Domino is looking for one, too!

Domino is a male Heeler mix, ~1-2 years old. He came to us from a nearby pound when his time was up and he wasn’t claimed. He was found with a female dog and 6 puppies on an exit off of the interstate. The female dog and all the puppies found homes while they were still at the pound, but no one was interested in this handsome boy - how!?

Domino is SO MUCH FUN! He’s such a good listener and learns super fast - he never goes “over board” when playing or gets too rough. He LOVES children, especially small ones (he recently met a 4-year old girl and was so incredibly gentle with her ❤️). We have not cat tested him or introduced him to other dogs yet, but we certainly can if you are interested in him!

Domino is up to date on his vaccinations, dewormed, current on Nexgard, and neutered. His adoption fee is $175 through the month of October.

If you are interested in Domino, please fill out an application here:

Each month, they do a “Live to Give” and collect donations for an organization or person in the community. We are very grateful for their generosity!

❤️🐶 Happy Adopt a Shelter Dog Month! 🐶❤️

Brisket is a male yellow lab mix, ~1-2 years old. He came to us a couple months ago after he was found abandoned with 4 shepherds. Brisket was the first dog to let rescuers take him in, and 3 of the shepherds were also caught and taken to safety. Unfortunately, one shepherd was hit by a vehicle and didn’t make it 😔.

Brisket is a very friendly, upbeat guy that just wants to be where the action is! He LOVES kids, other dogs, and is also ok with cats! He is potty trained and overall very well-mannered. He is a bit jumpy, so could use some work on that part. Brisket is very food-motivated and learns quickly!

Brisket is neutered, up to date on vaccinations, dewormed, and current on Nexgard. His adoption fee is $175 through the month of October.

If you are interested in Brisket, please fill out an application here:

COURTESY POST:

“Momma Jasmine is very slim built stray who had a rough start and has been an indoor cat for 2 years but escaped for a few hours this summer before she sas spayed. She has up to date rabies vaccine and has had distemper shot over a year ago. Kittens not vaccinated yet. The kittens were born on 9/11/26.

The kittens and momma do very well with other cats (my mom has rescued and spayed/neutered other Medina strays who have a furever home with her). TBD how they are with dogs. Each pictures has info on each kitten.”
