🚨 LONGEST DOG RESIDENT 🚨

You know that feeling of being picked last?

That's Scoop.

While other dogs have found their families, Scoop continues to wait. Day after day. Week after week.

The sad part? He's an amazing dog.

🐾 1.2 years old
🐾 Neutered
🐾 Good with dogs
🐾 Good with cats
🐾 Good with kids

Scoop has so much potential and so much love to give. He just needs someone willing to give him a chance.

Please help us show Scoop that his forever family is still out there.

Share this post and help us find the person who will finally choose Scoop. ❤️

We hate having to make posts like this, but our dog kennels are completely full and adoptions have been very slow lately. Every kennel is occupied, and we are running out of space for incoming dogs that need help.

Each dog here deserves a loving home, a warm bed, and a family to call their own. Some have been overlooked for weeks or even months, while newer faces continue to arrive almost daily.

Today, we’re asking our community to please take a look at the dogs below. Share their photos, tag friends or family who may be looking for a companion, or consider opening your home to adopt or foster. Even one adoption or foster placement makes a huge difference.

If you’ve ever thought about fostering, now is the perfect time. Fostering helps free up kennel space, lowers stress for the dogs, and gives them a chance to relax in a home environment while they wait for adoption.

These dogs are more than just kennel numbers — they are loyal, loving animals waiting for someone to give them a chance.

If you can’t adopt or foster, sharing this post truly helps more than you know. ❤️
UPDATE 6/4/25- The dogs still shown are still AVAILABLE. Let's find them homes!
