Hi, I'm Remington.
Hi, I’m Remington! I’m a playful, affectionate guy who loves being around my people—snuggles, car rides, and spending time together are some of my favorite things. I can be a little reserved at first and might bark when meeting someone new, but give me a moment (and maybe a treat!) and I warm up quickly into a sweet, loving companion. I’m smart and already know several commands, and I walk nicely on leash. I enjoy staying active with walks, playtime, and exploring, but I also love relaxing and cuddling up with my humans. I’ve lived with other dogs, cats, and kids, and have done well, though I can be a bit energetic with little ones. I’d thrive in a home where I can get plenty of attention, companionship, and love—especially with someone who enjoys having a loyal best friend by their side.

Hi, I'm Zora.
Hi, I’m Zora! I’m a sweet, smart girl with a playful side and a heart full of love once I get comfortable. After a few days to decompress in foster care, I settled in beautifully and showed everyone how much I enjoy walks, playtime, adventures, and snuggling on the couch. I’m a quick learner, very treat motivated, and do great with other dogs and even cats once I’ve had a little time to build trust. Sometimes new people or unfamiliar situations can make me a little nervous, but I respond really well to calm guidance, reassurance, and tasty treats. I’d love an active home that will continue helping me build confidence while giving me plenty of love, fun, and new experiences along the way!

Hi, I'm Athena.
Hi, I’m Athena! I’m a hippo-shaped bully with the softest soul, surrendered through no fault of my own and still learning that it’s okay to relax and feel safe again. I can be a little reserved at first, but once I settle in, my gentle, affectionate personality really shines. I love the simple things in life—rolling in the grass, going for walks or car rides, playing with a toy, and most of all snuggling up on the couch with my people. I’ve proven to be housebroken and do well with a consistent routine, happily napping in cozy spots and keeping myself entertained between cuddle sessions. I’m generally low to medium energy and would thrive in a calm, quiet home where someone is around often to keep me company and help me feel secure. If you’re looking for a loyal, low-key companion who will soak up affection and give it right back, I may be your perfect match.

Hi, I'm Meghan.
Hi, I’m Meghan! I’m a sweet, playful girl who loves walks, playing in the yard, and soaking up all the pets and cuddles I can get. I have a medium energy level and enjoy staying active, whether that’s playing fetch with my rope toy or going for car rides and adventures—I even did great on outings to places like Lowe’s and Tractor Supply! I can be a little excited at first and am still working on things like potty cues and recall, but I’m eager to learn and just want to make my people happy. With a little time, attention, and a family who will enjoy playing and going on walks with me, I’ll be a loving and wonderful companion.

Hi, I'm Bop It!.
Bop-It came to us as a stray with some injuries, but you’d never guess it from his spirit. Now that he’s healing and starting to feel like himself again, his true personality is shining through and it’s a good one. Despite whatever he’s been through, Bop-It has been nothing but a happy, loving boy since day one. This sweet guy is social, playful, and ready to trade in shelter life for a home of his own. He’s the kind of dog who will keep you smiling with his goofy energy and warm your heart with his affectionate nature. All he needs now is a family to give him the fresh start he deserves.

Save A Life By Fostering
Fostering saves two lives – the life of the animal in your home and the one we now have space for in the shelter. Our foster families create the capacity for us to care for more animals, and for pets struggling in the shelter environment, a foster family’s loving home can make a life-saving difference. Join our foster team to help pets heal, grow, and prepare for their forever home.
