Meet Athena

Sweet, sensitive, and ready for a fresh start.

Athena has been through a lot, and she’s looking for someone who’ll give her the patience and understanding she deserves. She may be timid at first, but once she feels safe, her gentle heart shines through especially when belly rubs are involved.

She’s fully house trained, walks nicely on leash after the initial excitement, and often pauses mid-walk just to ask for pets. Athena takes treats with the softest little nibble and loves toys, tug ropes, and curling up on a fluffy blanket with her favorite stuffie. Most of all, she loves being close to her person.

Athena will thrive in a calm, loving home where she can be your one and only. She’s not looking to share her space with other dogs just a human who’ll help her feel safe and cherished. We do think she'd do best in a home with older children.

If you’re looking for a loyal companion who’ll blossom with kindness, Athena is ready to meet you.

Approximate Birth Date - 12/02/2019

Size - Large (54lbs)

Likes - Belly rubs, Playing tug with a rope, chasing balls around our play area, long walks and any treat you're willing to give her! and snuggling up with her favorite blanket and stuffed animal.

Other dogs - Athena will need to be an only dog. She prefers being the center of attention and doesn't seem to do well picking up on social cues from other doggo's

Meet Marley!

Loyal, Loving, Tomato Thief

Every day with Marley feels like Christmas morning, at least according to her previous family, and we’re inclined to agree. This sweetheart is affectionate, loyal, and full of personality. She’s housebroken, crate trained, and knows a whole repertoire of commands (sit, down, stay, shake, play dead, roll over, high five, you name it). She walks beautifully on leash and is eager to please, especially if treats are involved.

Marley can be shy at first, especially around new people and loud noises, and she tends to warm up faster to women than men. The key? Go slow, toss a few treats, and let her come to you. Once she knows you, she’s incredibly friendly and loves attention. She’s good with other dogs and cats, but not a fit for homes with small children.

Her favorite toys are balls and sticks, and she’s got a mischievous streak, This garden thief has been known to swipe tomatoes and corn when no one’s looking. She’s a gentle soul with a playful heart, and she’s ready to find a home that understands her pace, celebrates her quirks, and gives her the love she’s so ready to return.

Approximate Birth Date - 12/22/2017

Size - Large (89lbs)

Likes - Being with her person, playing fetch, treats of any kind, cuddles and butt scratches and stealing your garden goods.

House Training - Marley is fully house trained

Other dogs - Marley did wonderful meeting other dogs here at the shelter although I do see a slight preference for dogs that are respectful of her space.

Introducing Annie!

If you’re looking for a dog who’ll adore you with her whole heart (and then some), Annie’s your girl. This sweet soul has been through a lot, but she hasn’t let it dim her light. She’s affectionate, resilient, and ready to soak up all the love she can get.

Annie’s favorite place? Curled up in your lap, fast asleep. She thrives on closeness and connection, and she’ll happily trade kisses for cuddles. She’s food- and attention-motivated, which makes training a breeze. She already knows sit, stay, and down, and she’s working on her fetch game (yes, she brings the ball back!).

Her play style is enthusiastic (think paws, wiggles, and joyful chaos) So, older kids who can match her energy and respect her space would be ideal. Annie would do best as your one-and-only pet, not because she’s picky, but because she truly shines when she’s the center of your world.

She’s likely housebroken, keeps her kennel clean with regular walks, and walks beautifully on leash. An active home would be perfect for helping her burn off those zoomies and in return, you’ll get a loyal, loving companion who’ll remind you daily what it means to be chosen.

Annie’s not just looking for a home. She’s looking for her person. Could that be you?

Here’s a few facts about our girl, Annie.

Approximate Birth Date - 01/30/2022

Size - Large (46lbs)

Likes - Falling asleep in your lap, cuddles, treats, playtime.

House Training - Annie keeps a clean kennel with regular walks.

Other dogs - Annie needs to be the ONLY animal in the home.

This sweet girl is patiently awaiting her forever home, if you feel like that might be you, fill out an application today to get the process started!
