Dior Dior [Adoption Application]
Number: D10079MH
Breed: Shih Tzu
Sex: Male
Weight: 20 lbs
Born: June 1998 (12 yrs 3 mos)
Color: Blue with White
  • Shots up to date
  • Neutered
  • Microchipped
  • Housetrained
Mr. Dior is an older fellow who was surrendered to the shelter by his previous owner. He is a very sweet boy who is the perfect companion. He's had a few too many treats in his day and his waistline needs attention. Dior would be best suited to a home where he would get walked multiple times every day, at least until he slims down. He is in good health otherwise and has plenty of years left to share with someone who will love him.

Dior is completely house-trained and requires little more that a soft bed or couch to park on to be content. The only time he barks is to say he needs to go out. Mr. "D' gets along well with other dogs and likely children too, but would probably prefer being in a more quiet household with less action and more attention paid to him. If you'd like an older boy who doesn't require much entertaining, but needs a little exercise; please consider Mr. Dior. He is such a perfect gentleman; he deserves a forever home where he can live happily without fear of abandonment ever again. He still has much love to give if you'll let him.

Dior has been neutered, micro-chipped, is up to date on vaccines, and is current on heartworm and flea and tick preventative.

Dottie is a sweet and bouncy little girl; she enjoys every activity, as long as she gets to be with her people. At the end of a day of exploration and puppy play, she can often be found cuddling up with her favorite humans on the couch. She loves to please and picks up on her obedience lessons very quickly! Dottie is working hard on her housetraining and will no doubt be a quick study. She is learning how to walk appropriately on-leash, is crate trained, and rides well in the car.

Dottie just loves to play with other doggies, true to her boxer heritage; she can often be found bouncing around the yard wrestling with her canine friends. She is also learning her kitty manners in her foster home. She would do best in a home where children are 6 years of age or older and where the humans aren’t gone for long hours. A fenced in yard would be a plus with this playful gal, she loves to fetch and explore, and a fenced enclosure would provide her with a safe place to do so.

Dottie has begun her vaccinations; she has been spayed, micro-chipped and is current on heartworm preventative and flea and tick prevention.

Who said you can’t get find both beauty and brains? Well, they haven’t met Sushi!

Sushi is a complete love bunny and she adores making her humans happy, so teaching her new things is a breeze.

Sushi is doing well learning good house manners and she gets along well with all that she meets! Sushi adores cats, when she catches a glimpse of a cat; her entire body wiggles. The cats have yet to return the sentiment but as she matures, Sushi will be better able to control her love of kitties and will no doubt be a good friend to felines. She would do best in a home where children are 6 years of age or older and the humans aren’t gone for long hours.

Chloe is a cute little boxer mix who is such a go-along girl! She is primarily white and has some brown spots here and there. She is up for most any adventure as long as her family is involved. She has a laid-back personality and her energy level is perfect for a dog that loves to be inside. She likes to cuddle, play a little, eat a bite and then take a nap. Chloe was house-trained from day one. She doesn't need a crate and can be left alone in the house without incident. When left alone, she settles in on her doggie bed for a nice nap.

With her wonderful laid-back attitude, she is easy to walk, and she enjoys a nice stroll. Chloe also enjoys a car ride. She hops into the back seat and sits in the middle so she can see out the front window.

Anyone looking for a nice home companion dog would do well with Chloe – she would fit in most any home environment.

Did someone say cuddle? That is Tuckers favorite pastime! He just loves to curl up with his people and have a good snuggle. He enjoys going for a nice stroll but this guy isn't high energy, his aspirations in life are more centered on a warm lap, rather than running a marathon. He does enjoy a nice game of fetch, and for yummy treats; he will return the ball!

Tucker has wonderful manners in the house, he is happy to entertain himself by chewing on a bone or toy. He is housetrained, crate trained and just loves going for a ride in the car! He gets along well with other dogs and would love to have a doggie friend in his forever home, but would do well as an only dog too. He is learning about kitties in his foster home and would do well with a confident kitty who knows how to handle a curious pooch.

Color: Red

  • Spayed

Layla is a gorgeous Retriever. She is most likely Nova Scotia "Toller" and Golden Retriever mix. She has reached her full size. Layla is a high energy dog and would do best with someone who enjoys lots of activity.

Layla enjoys being around people. She has done well at events that she has been to and has been kind to children and adults that she has met. She has done fine with the dog-savy cat in her foster home. Due to her playful nature, a shy cat might be intimidated.

When Layla is inside her home, she gets a chewy and spends a little down-time in her crate. She enjoys hugs and being groomed. Layla enjoys her doggie friends. If she is in a home with another dog, that dog would need to enjoy high-energy interaction and play. She's a smart girl and, with maturity, will most likely learn to do most anything asked of her. She has learned to sit and to come. She is learning her house-manners. She is crate trained.

Layla must have a large fenced yard or farm-type space where she can run and play. She has strong water instincts and would enjoy a place to swim. Right now she must settle for a large bucket of water which she jumps into every chance she gets. She loves to go on long walks and needs someone who likes lots of exercise. With practice, she could be a great jogging partner. Although Layla does well with kids, her youthful exuberance and high energy level would work best in a home with children over 12 years old. Layla has been spayed, is on heart worm preventative and has all of her vaccinations. She has also been microchipped.

Born: April 2010 (0 yrs 5 mos)
Color: Fawn
  • Shots up to date
  • Spayed
  • Microchipped
Whoever said "Fabulous comes in all sizes," clearly had Dawn--or Daphne-Dawn as we call her, in mind! This beautiful, fluffy little girl is extremely affectionate and sweet! Daphne (and her sister) was bottle-fed as a pup, so she's a real people-lover. She's also been highly socialized with the other pups and adult dogs in her foster home. She loves to frolic and play, and she's definitely a referee! While she's a little cautious in a new situation, within moments she gains her confidence and is ready for fun-filled adventures. Daphne-Dawn is learning her commands and excels at sit and shake. She sleeps through the night in her crate, and has yet to have an accident in the house as far as her house-training goes.

Her favorite activity involves splashing in the water! Daphne-Dawn would enjoy a family that likes going to the beach or lake to cool off on those hot summer days, but even a kiddy pool in the backyard to splash in and enjoy would make her very happy.

As with all puppies, Daphne-Dawn is best suited for a home where people are not gone for long hours at a time and children are at least six years old.

Josie is a super sweet and friendly one year old German Shepherd/Lab mix girl. She's a social butterfly and can't wait to make friends with everyone she meets. Very intelligent and trainable, she easily learns things and has quickly learned her obedience basics. She loves water and happily splashes in the pond or kiddie pool every day during this hot weather.

Josie inherited the best qualities of both breeds in her heritage, making her an ideal family companion.

This beautiful girl gets along famously with other dogs of all types. She adores dogplay with her pals and races around and with the best of them.

Josie has lots energy which needs an outlet every day or she could be bouncing off the walls. Once she's had enough exercise, she settles down nicely in the house and is content to just "hang out".

Josie would excel in agility or advanced obedience, other dog sports or as a jogging and hiking partner. She's the type who thrives on opportunities to learn new things and put her bright mind to use. She loves children of all ages but is too rambunctious for those under 8 years old. She is housetrained and has nice house manners.

Mariah Mariah [Adoption Application]
Number: dr10065dr
Breed: Labrador Retriever Mix
Sex: Female
Weight: 55-65
Born: April 2010 (0 yrs 5 mos)
Color: Black & White
  • Shots up to date
  • Spayed
  • Microchipped
Mariah is a sweet, playful little girl, who's very much a Zen-pup. While she of course has her moments of crazy puppy play, she is one of the most laid back pups you'll ever meet, and will happily lie across your lap getting a belly rub for hours! In this hot weather, when given the opportunity to refresh herself in the kiddie pool, Mariah splashes and frolics in the water just like a true Lab. She is all black, but for white paws. She was born at her foster home, and she’s growing into a confident, secure, and a very curious girl. She loves to hike in the woods, yet she’s also content to hang out with a chew toy. She sleeps through the night in her crate, and she's yet to have an accident in the house! Mariah will sit for a treat, or just because she's told, and she’s learning shake, as well as other manners.

Mariah is looking for her special forever home, where she’ll blossom into a great dog! She would be equally suited as an only dog, lavished with the love and attention she deserves, or as a member of a multi-dog household. As with all puppies, Mariah is best suited for a home where people are not gone for long hours at a time and children are at least six years old.
Sargent Sargent [Adoption Application]
Number: d10062dr
Breed: Mastiff/Labrador Retriever Mix
Sex: Male
Weight: 70-85
Born: April 2010 (0 yrs 5 mos)
Color: Brindle
  • Shots up to date
  • Neutered
  • Microchipped
Sargent was thus named as he was the first born in his litter, the first to open his eyes, and the first to crawl out of the puppy pool (which was used to confine them as babies). When he was born, we joked that his momma must have mated with a Mastif -- but now it's not such a joke! He's a big boy. Yet contrary to what his name suggests, he’s definitely not an Alpha dog. A curious pup with a light tan brindle coloring, Sargent is also a big mush. He’s super-sweet and loves to have a belly rub and to cuddle in your lap. He's also most excellent at camouflage -- when he lies in the high grass or even at the edge of the woods, he disappears!

While he loves playing and rough-housing with the other pups, Sargent is also very interested in people. He's always up for a hike in the woods. And he’s keen on exploring with the other pups, but if his people are working outdoors, he’ll very likely be hanging at their side—or nearby. Sargent would be equally suited as an only dog, lavished with the love and attention he deserves, or as a member of a multi-dog household. He has mastered sit and shake, and knows not to jump on people! He sleeps through the night in his crate, and he's yet to have an accident in the house.

As with all puppies, Sargent is best suited for a home where people are not gone for long hours at a time and children are at least six years old.
Julius Julius [Adoption Application]
Number: dr10064dr

Sex: Male
Weight: 65-75
Born: April 2010 (0 yrs 5 mos)
Color: Brindle
  • Shots up to date
  • Neutered
  • Microchipped
Julius, or Jules as he's sometimes called, is a handsome pup who’s dark brown brindle with dark marking on his face. This little guy is quite clever and agile, and very confident. Born at his foster home, Julius has only known the good things in life. He has his motor coordination down, and he’s mastered both the stairs and the doggy door. He’s curious about the world around him and quite brave. This adorable baby loves to frolic with his littermates and chase the big dogs in his foster home. His favorite activity, when he’s not curled up and sleeping, is wrestling and rough-housing with the other pups, and then more curling up and sleeping. He’s also particularly fond of a good game of Tug-on-the-Broccoli-Stalk when his foster people are working in the veggie garden. And in this heat, one of his favorite activities is splashing around in and through the kiddie pool!

Julius would do equally well as an only dog, lavished with the love and attention he deserves, or as a member of a multi-dog household. He has mastered sit and shake, and knows not to jump on people! He sleeps through the night in his crate, and he's yet to have an accident in the house.

As with all puppies, Julius is best suited for a home where people are not gone for long hours at a time and children are at least six years old.

Lilly is amazingly sweet. She can be a bit shy at first, but once she accepts you, she’ll love you forever. You'll feel like you've won the lottery – and you have!

Lilly has a tail that conveys her every emotion, a very twitchy nose that loves to smell things, and soft, floppy ears she loves to have rubbed! She is curious and smart with a frisky, playful side. Lilly loves people and dogs and needs both in her life.

Lilly is looking for loving and gentle owners. An adult home with no children would be best. Oh, and Lilly said “No cats either, please!” Apparently they like to chase her! She also wishes to tell you that she would love to have new owners with one or more dogs, who wouldn't mind a new friend. Lilly loves to snuggle. So make sure your dogs are snuggle friendly!

Lilly is an indoor dog and is housetrained. She is spayed and current on her vaccines. She will be a loyal and loving friend to a lucky new owner.

Sex: Female
Weight: 25 lbs
Born: March 2010 (0 yrs 6 mos)
Color: Black with Tan
  • Shots up to date
  • Spayed
  • Microchipped
Ellie is quite the character, she adores entertaining her people and her sweet kisses and wiggles are worth waiting for. She is almost cat-like in her appreciation of her humans; she bonds closely, but does not require constant doting. She will sneak in the occasional snuggle, which is always a cherished experience. She is very loyal and loving and just makes you melt with those beautiful eyes.

Ellie is learning her basic obedience lessons very quickly; she is crate trained and is well on her way to being housetrained. She does well in the car, and she loves to go on a nice walk, but her favorite activity is SWIMMING! At the end of her hike to the lake, she is very aware of her surroundings and boy does she wiggle at the sight of water.

Ellie would do best in a home where her humans are not gone for long hours and there is another playful and confident dog to spend time with. A fenced in yard is preferred and children should be at least 10 years of age or older. Ellie has been vaccinated, spayed and micro chipped. She is current on both heartworm preventative and flea and tick preventative.

Oscar Oscar [Adoption Application]
Number: d09029mt
Breed: Dachshund/Terrier Mix
Sex: Male
Weight: 25-30
Born: November 2008 (1 yr 10 mos)
Color: Red
  • Shots up to date
  • Neutered
  • Special needs
  • Microchipped
Oscar is an ambassador to all new dogs in his foster home. He also loves to wrestle and play, and for the most part is very good at setting his own limits—for example, he’s really gentle with the little puppies and loves to play nursemaid by licking and cleaning them. Sometimes, though, with dogs more his own size, he gets a bit carried away in his overzealousness and is a little relentless in pursuit of wrestling. This behavior got him into trouble with the family who adopted him when he was a puppy, and they ostracized him to a particular area of the house. Left alone with little stimulation or interaction with others, he began soothing himself by chewing on the wood. At the same time, Oscar started having problems with urinating in the house—rather than suspecting this may have been a medical issue, his owners assumed it was behavioral. They decided they no longer wanted him and returned him to CARE—a move that is undoubtedly their loss and one of the best things that ever could have happened to Oscar!

When CARE brought Oscar to the vet for a check-up, we discovered that he had kidney stones—an extremely painful condition that required immediate surgery for removal. Once in his new foster home (where he’s been for the past few months), Oscar was put on a special diet and allowed to race and chase and spend the abundance of energy he has. Within no time, he blossomed into the wonderful dog he is…extremely sweet and at times tender with the other dogs, extremely playful, and very affectionate with his people. Oscar loves wrestling almost as much as he loves sleeping. And his favorite way to sleep is curled up against somebody…be it another dog or two, or a human. In picture #3, he’s sleeping with his two pals Gunther & Fiona after a hard session of playtime! Oscar is working on his training, which was brand new when he came into foster care. He now sits and shakes and will come when called. He would do really well in a training class with other dogs.

Because Oscar is very much a pack dog, it’s important that his forever home have at least one other dog who is playful and on the younger side. No matter about size—one of Oscar’s best friends in his foster home is a giant black lab! Additionally, because of his kidney stones, Oscar needs to be on a special diet for the rest of his life—which includes, kibble, canned food, and special treats.

Peaches is a beautiful and sweet girl who is in search of a special type of home. For the first few months of her life, she was feral without exposure to humans. As a result she is shy and cautious around new people and places. She has made lots of progress in foster care and very much loves to be around and cuddle with people she is familiar with.

This beautiful baby has plenty of smarts as well. She has mastered basic commands like sit and down and walks nicely on a leash. She would greatly benefit from continued obedience training to help build her confidence.

She enjoys racing all around the fields with her dog friends. When not running and playing, they're often wrestling with each other. Peaches really loves water. She bounces into the pond or the puppy pool and has a big time splashing all around. Her new home will need children to be at least 10 years old and who are of a gentle sense with animals.
