Jasmine is the sweetest, calmest, most loving fluffy kitty you will probably ever meet. She is a gentle soul, friendly and purrs all the time, and has so much calm and patience. Jasmine was surrendered to the vet when she kept getting &#039;backed up&#039; in her bowels and needed a surgery. The surgery was done, the meds plan and food were figured out, and she lives as a very normal kitty again with a mild laxative she takes daily and soft food. Her medical needs are around $30 a month, and that&#039;s less than you&#039;d pay for therapy you might not need with this sweetheart in your life. She loves to curl up on your body and purr and just so politely wants to be with you. Please email us for more information on the basic needs for her and if you&#039;d like an application.... she&#039;s worth it! Kladams4545@gmail.com.

Nova, affectionately named after the Spanish interpretation meaning &quot; No Go&quot;, is a loveable, quirky, sweet, independent Rat Terrier mix female. Originally rescued from a hoarding situation, she is learning all about being a house dog, especially an apartment dog, and has found her stride with it. She has a very strong bladder and often holds her potty for a long time by choice, and is not much of a barker. Leash walking is coming along well, and she is getting braver and more social every day. Nova enjoys other dogs once she knows them ( initial meetings are scary, but she tries) and has lived with cats prior, although not with us. She panics in a crate so after her very patient foster worked with her, she is now behaving when left loose in a controlled area. Nova really loves routine, predictability, and being loved.

Louisa is a middle aged, mid sized mystery mutt who has been in foster for a year now. She came in with her puppies a year ago, and they all went to new adventures. Louisa is waiting her turn, and needs a special family with dog experience to find her. She is reliably house trained, crates very well for the workday, listens well and respects/responds to limits and boundaries. She enjoys the company of most dogs, although one senior female at her foster she is overly bossy with. She is good with cats. Louisa would thrive in an adult home who can manage her with men. She was previously very abused by a man, which is why she was taken away, and it takes her awhile to warm up to new guys, but she does and then loves them. However, on walks, with company coming over, etc she is not trusted with men she doesn&#039;t know. If you can manage that one part, she is otherwise very enjoyable to live with and love. She&#039;s silly and very cuddly and listens well. She would do best with a fenced yard and when she has her daily visits to the hobby farm, she is in heaven and does very well there.

Atticus is a middle aged mixed breed, about 45 pounds, who has a tough past but he sure doesn&#039;t show it. He is always happy.  He loves to chase the squirrels and enjoys watching the birds at the bird feeder, he doesn’t bark or growl at the birds he just sits on the couch and watches them. He likes to lay on the couch and will cuddle with you if you invite him. He loves to sleep in bed with his fosters as well, no matter how little space there is. Atticus came from Mexico and was badly hurt, left to heal on his own. He had a broken pelvis and broken leg that healed on it&#039;s own. Maybe that&#039;s why he enjoys a soft bed and a warm loving home so very much. Atticus is a smart dog who responds very well to training. He enjoys other dogs, meeting people, and plays well with others. He is well house trained and crates when alone, although is graduating to more free reign then also. He&#039;s just a very good boy who deserves his own home. He&#039;s past due for it. Please email kashkash468@gmail.com

Octavia came to us after a vet clinic closed and she had been ruling the roost there for many months. She has shown how happy she is to be in a calm, quiet home where she gets to be the only pet. She really is bossy with other cats and dogs, and is so relaxed and content being the only cat in the home. She is awful in a cage though, will swat you with claws. This means first impressions are never great, and she needs someone to just bring her home on a foster to adopt trial.  Outside of the cage, she enjoys pets, canned food, toys, and just quietly and contentedly hanging near you. She tolerates being picked up, but really prefers to come sit on you, or just hang out. Octavia is a 3 year old spayed female, vaccinated and wormed and chipped. For a calm home wanting a companion who doesn&#039;t ask for a lot but is good company, she&#039;s it.

Socks the wonder dog is a 5 1/2 year old Border Collie/Lab mix with the best of both breeds. He is smart, very responsive to people, friendly, well mannered, and has this spark of almost human wisdom that makes you connect with him easily. He is house trained, does not require a crate, loves his toys, and highly enjoys doing zoomies in the fenced yard. He rides well in the car. Socks has not been a barker, choosing to do a quiet &#039;chuff&#039; sound when he hears something. Socks is good with visiting people and kids. He is used to sharing the couch, and thinks he is a lap dog... the closer he can get, the better. Socks is very content living as an only dog, although he has been polite when out walking and other dogs approach. He is NOT a dog park dog though, other dogs in his business annoy him and he prefers a level of decorum and manners when in the company of other canines. He has lived with outside cats, but not inside cats, so for right now we are seeking a cat free home. His favorite thing in the world are walks, and he walks like a gentleman. His forever home must commit to a daily walk, it brings such pleasure to he and the person walking him.  He has always had a home with a yard, and we prefer no apartment living for him. Please email kladams4545@gmail.com

Bowie is a Beagle with some baggage. Cute as can be, this young adult Beagle has a lot of Beagle traits (the bay, the enthusiasm for long sniffing walks, the passion for food, and wily smarts) but came to us with some serious resource guarding issues. He went through behavior rehab and is doing wonderfully, but without an experienced dog owner will revert back. He used to guard food, items he thought were his, and his sleeping space, and would react with a bite. At this point, in foster care, he allows us to handle him all over, take food and treats away, and move him. He needs an experienced owner to continue boundaries, training, and kind firmness. We adore him, we have no issues right now (except with cats, he hates cats). Bowie is house trained, crated when alone, loves walks, would do best with a fenced outside area, and we are highly recommending continued training classes. Please email kladams4545@gmail.com if you can give Charlie a great home. You can get a head start on the process by filling out the application above.

Frankie is a smaller size adult female Lab mix ( 35 pounds, full grown) seeking a home where she can be the only dog, although she sure is making progress on understanding other dogs more clearly. She is house and kennel trained, loves cats and men and women, curious and loving with kids.

I would like you to meet Aarmis aka Thunder. He is a one year old Golden Retriever/German Shepherd mix ( best guess). His fosters  call him Thunder as that was his name from his prior adopted family who underestimated the energy of an adolescent. He needs a family with at least one other dog that likes to play or a very active family that will take him on long walks, play with him, and/or take him to dog parks regularly.  He is rarely left alone ( used to someone home most of the time) and is kenneled at night with no issues.  He is not a fan of fireworks or thunder and will hide under or behind anything he can find. He has enough German Shepherd in him to be a good barking watchdog when people come to the door, and he is learning to be redirected. Once they come in he&#039;s fine. He is does not bark much, he walks well on a leash, loves bones, is currently free-fed,  and good around kids of all ages. Cats are unknown. He has a passion for pickles also. Please email kladams4545@gmail.com with questions.
