Meet Lady! This 3-year-old, 55-lb mixed breed pup is looking for a home to call her own. This sweet girl was found a few weeks ago sleeping outside a local elementary school. A kind stranger offered to take her in, and fostered her for seven months. Now officially in our care, we're determined to help this angel find her forever family! Lady is fully potty trained, walks perfectly on a leash, and has clearly lived in a home before. She is a total couch potato and loves nothing more than taking long naps or gazing out the window. Lady would do best in a home with at least one other dog as she feels most comfortable when left alone with a canine companion. She prefers a slow introduction, but Lady is friendly with dogs and people. Her heart-shaped face tells you everything you need to know - Lady is full of love! Is Lady your family's missing piece?⁠

"But I live in an apartment..."⁠

It’s a common misconception, but you don't have to live in a house with a yard to give a dog a happy home! Almost all of our adoptable dogs, no matter the size, age, or breed, would love to live in your apartment with you. We’ve gathered a group of our pups that have done well in apartments in foster care or display that they’d adapt well in that kind of environment.⁠

A little guy like Vito would do great in an apartment, but even some of our larger dogs like Lady and Kringle would love to share your home with you, yard or not! If your dog's needs are being met, the size of your living space won't matter to them. Even the tiniest apartment is better than a kennel 🤍 ⁠

Our dogs are so loved and well cared for, whether they're at our Adoption Center or in foster care, but they deserve forever homes of their own. If you've got room in your home and your heart for one of these angels, apply to adopt today! ⁠
