Update: Adopted!!

Meet Snoopy and Woodstock! These two adorable boys were surrendered to us because their owner was no longer able to care for them. They are 11 months old, poodle mixes, and approximately 20 pounds. They are incredibly sweet and friendly puppies! Woodstock (tan) is more outgoing and wants to be in your lap all the time. Snoopy (black/wht) is more timid and laid back. They will need basic obedience training, but they are learning to walk well on leash and know some commands. They previously lived in a home with a cat, but have never really been around other dogs. These boys have so much potential and will make wonderful family dogs! They can be adopted together, but we think they would also do okay going to separate homes.

If you're interested in adopting Snoopy and/or Woodstock, fill out an application at www.thesimonfoundation.org!

**Please note: This breed requires regular grooming maintenance! Please do not apply if you are not able and willing to keep up with daily brushing and grooming appointments for a wash/cut every 8 weeks!**

Meet Sebastian and Brady! These two senior boys are looking for a loving home to live out the rest of their days. They were recently surrendered because their owner lost their home. They are 16 years old and have been together their whole lives. They are affectionate, easy-going, distinguished gentlemen! They are cuddly and funny enough enjoy listening to music. They are both in good health for their age and ready for their furever home! They are a bonded pair and must be adopted together. Please consider giving these sweet boys a chance!

Meet Odin! He recently came to us from a very nice family who was devastated to give him up. He is a happy, friendly guy who loves to be around people. He is a 9-year-old pit mix and has been well cared for. He received basic obedience training, walks well on-leash, and is housebroken. He needs a home with no small children and though he is dog selective, he would do best as the only pet. He equally enjoys having active time outside playing or going for walks and having snuggle time on the couch. He is a very well-behaved dog and deserves to spend his senior years in a loving home! If you're interested in adopting Odin, fill out an app at www.thesimonfoundation.org!

*Odin's previous family paid his adoption fee in the hope it would help him get adopted faster. So his adopter will not have to pay any fees!*

Introducing Otis Bear! This cutie is sweet as pie! He's a 1.5 year old black lab with lots of love to give! He's a typical lab and has lots of energy, so he needs an active home that will provide him with plenty of daily exercise. His favorite things to do are play fetch and chew on antlers. He is crate-trained and housebroken, leash manners are a work in progress 😂. Otis loves people and other dogs! He gets along with children, however due to his energy level we think it's best he goes to a home with older kids (12+). He is being fostered locally while eagerly awaiting his furever family!

Meet Buddy! This sweet senior boy is looking for his furever home. He has been through alot in his life, losing two long term homes (one gave him up after 7 years because they were moving and the other owner unfortunately suffered severe health issues after 3 years). He is looking for his final home to enjoy the rest of his days spoiled rotten! He is a very friendly corgi mix and medium size at about 25 pounds. He is 10 years old and you wouldn't know it because he can play all day long. He loves walks, playing in the yard, and snuggling up on the couch. He is very well mannered, leash trained, and house trained. He loves other dogs and would do best in a home with a furry friend! He has some separation anxiety, so he lives up to the name Buddy because he will do and wants to do everything with you! He is an absolute sweetheart and will make a wonderful addition to any family! Let's get this good boy out of the shelter asap, please share!! 🙏

Meet Ollie! He recently lost the only home he's ever known and is searching for his true furever family! This boy is just a puppy in a big body! He is always ready to play, go for walks, play a game of fetch, or anything that involves being with people. He has a lot of energy and will need plenty of daily exercise. He's a shepherd/lab mix, about 60 pounds, and only 1 year old. Ollie is super friendly and loves everyone he meets! He's also a funny, goofy, derpy guy who will keep you entertained all the time! He is still working on his basic obedience and needs someone willing to put the time into training him. However, he is very smart and picks things up easily. He wants to play with almost every dog he meets, so we think he'd be okay in a home with another dog with proper introduction. Ollie is incredibly loving and affectionate, and any family would be lucky to have him! He is starting to suffer from kennel stress, and it just breaks our hearts. Please share to help find his people!!

Introducing Bohdi! This adorable little stud muffin was found fending for himself outside. He was rescued by a good samaritan who fell in love with him and wanted to get him safe. He is estimated to be around 2 years old and a very sweet boy! He is a little shy at first, but once he warms up he loves to get pets and back scratches. He is a talkative boy and will cry out if he needs a little extra attention. He has mixed feelings on other animals; some he co-exists with and others he likes to bop on the head. We think he'd prefer a home where he can be the only pet. Due to his slight fear, we think it best he go to a home that is on the quieter side, so he will feel safe and comfortable. He truly is a wonderful cat with a lot of love to give to a family of his own! Fill out an app today at www.thesimonfoundation.org!

Update: Adopted!!

Meet Peaches! This stunning senior lady was recently surrendered because her owner was moving and couldn't take her with them. She is 8 years old and loves her comforts. She prefers a quiet environment and enjoys lounging in a nice warm spot. She is a loving girl, but also likes her space when she chooses. She would prefer a home without other animals. She will make a great companion for someone, and we hope to see her back in a home asap!
