Miss Ladybird was dumped on someone’s property and they brought her to the shelter. I don’t know if I have ever met such a sweetheart. She plops herself down at your feet and waits for belly rubs. She also covers her eyes with her paw when she is scared or nervous. She has a lovely personality! Her skin is in pretty rough shape and she is not spayed yet, but she will get all of that taken care of. Ladybird is about 5 months old and currently weighs 20 pounds. We are not sure what breed she is, but judging by the size of her paws, she is going to be a bigger dog.

Gypsy is a Sarplaninac Shepherd, a breed new to us. If the person surrendering her didn’t tell us what breed she was, we would have guessed Great Pyrenees/Shepherd Mix. Gypsy was surrendered by the people who raised her because she killed some livestock. It was a one time thing while a storm was happening so it might have just been a freak accident, but they felt they could not trust her around their livestock anymore. She would not be good with chickens or ducks either. Gypsy is a very protective breed and is trained to be a guard dog to keep coyotes away. She is good with other dogs, kids, and cats too. She has been outside most of her life and loves the water. She loves your attention and to put her head in your lap. She has a very laid back personality and is a gentle giant.
Jolene is an 8 month old Rat Terrier Mix that weighs about 16lbs (she won’t get much bigger). She came from a home with about 10 other dogs but the owners gave them no attention and no socialization. She is very skittish and fearful of strangers. She has been at our shelter for a month and we can just now hold her and touch her. She has been too afraid to come to anybody. She will need a home with patient people who understand that they cannot touch her until she feels safe, which may take about a month. She will also need a fenced yard that she can run around in until she knows she is safe. Jolene will make a wonderful dog; it may take awhile, so we need a very patient family that’s willing to give her a chance.
Oden came to us with his brother Opie. They were found at a very young age, 4 weeks or so, under a boat house. They were extremely frightened at first and screamed when you touched them. They apparently, were never given any attention and were separated from the mother real young. They were so stressed initially, that they lost their hair due to demodectic mange (not contagious, but stress related). They have been with us for about a month and are really thriving. They love to be held, are very playful, and getting all their hair back. They love other puppies too. They will be ready to go soon. They will need some work with house training.

Juno is quite the character. She is 8 months old and weighs 16lbs. She came from a home with about 10 other dogs, all of which did not get any attention. They are all fearful of strangers and it took us almost a month to be able to touch her. Juno loves other animals and would do best in a home with other pets. Now that she’s getting used to human interaction, she is starting to come out of her shell. She loves cuddles and pets. Juno will need a special family who is willing to give her some time to adjust. It is recommended that you make several trips to the shelter before taking her home. This will allow her to gain your trust in an environment she is comfortable in. She is not house trained, but seems smart and this probably would not take long.
River is the sweetest puppy ever. She has such a great energy about her and has the most beautiful coat of dark brown and black fur. She was found down by the river (hints the name) with a gunshot wound to her face. Fortunately, it did not hit anything vital and she healed nicely with antibiotics. River is about 3 months old and is very friendly (shy at first), playful, and loves attention. She will need some work with potty training but she would make a great family pet. She would be good with dogs, cats, and kids.
Meet Casper…the friendly puppy. Casper is 3 months old and showed up as a stray with his sister, Cinnamon. We have no idea what the parents are but he looks like he has some lab in him. He really has not shown any signs of abuse or trauma and actually begs for affection. He is very friendly, high energy and loves to play. He would make a great family dog; good with kids and other pets. He will need to be housetrained, but what puppy doesn’t?
Cinnamon is a spunky 3 month old puppy. She came to us with her brother, Casper. They both showed up as strays and were not claimed. Cinnamon loves attention, is very friendly, and loves to play. She doesn’t show any signs of trauma or abuse. She is not house trained yet, but is only 3 months old and should be easy to train.
This beautiful redhead is Hildie. Hildie is a very friendly 3 month old puppy. She came to us as a stray with her brother Hank. We have no idea what breed they are. Hildie is a little shy at first but is very sweet and calm. She is good with other dogs, kids, and probably cats too. She does need some work with house training but seems very smart.
