Look at this cute face and those big brown eyes! How can you resist him? His name is Thumper, and he is a four-year-old Beagle. Although he loves to get in nature and put that nose to the ground, he was never used for hunting, but rather enjoyed the easy life on the sofa curled up with his loving owner. He gets along great with other dogs and does fine around cats as well. Thumper will strike into song when overly excited; but he’s a fairly quiet, mild-mannered guy who just wants to be loved.

Poppa is a ten-year-old German Shepherd who spent the past nine and a half years living outside chained to a doghouse. Day in and day out, life never changed for poor ol’ Poppa until he came to stay at the Shelter. Recently given a clean bill of health by the veterinarian, Poppa is looking to start a new chapter in his life. He’s a sweet guy without a mean bone in his body, and so grateful to be living indoors surrounded by caring hands. He cherishes his time out on walks, taking in all the smells that he was never able to sniff out from the end of his chain. He gets along with other dogs and doesn’t seem to mind the cats. Poppa deserves to spend the rest of his days in peace and happiness.

Logan is an eight-year-old Beagle who spent the better part of his life tied outside. Yes, some people still believe that Beagles need to live outdoors. Well this little guy is so happy to be indoors and to have a warm bed to sleep on—he’s ready for the real thing. Had he not come to our Shelter, he was going to be shot because he was “old” and no longer “useful.” Well Logan is ready to prove how useful he is by being the best companion a dog can be.

Polly, aka Cami, found her way to the Shelter after being picked up, on a hot summer day, running aimlessly down the road. We are guessing that she is a Yorkie mix, approximately 3 to 4 years old. Her hair was completely matted upon arrival, so we had to trim her entire coat. It will all grow back nicely with time. She recently spent a week with our trainer where she was evaluated and received some very productive in-home training. Upon evaluation, we learned that this sweet little girl needs a home without children, loves woman, but is cautious of most men. Our trainer recommends that we place Polly with an adult couple or single person with a low-key lifestyle. Polly is cute, funny, and thoroughly enjoys sitting on your lap while getting lots of love and affection (and she deserves it).

Introducing Graham Cracker, a seven-year-old Standard Dachshund with a spunky personality. Originally rescued from the south, Graham spent the last five years being spoiled in his loving home. Unfortunately, his guardian fell ill and passed away, leaving Graham with a lot of questions. A very unique guy, we were told that he loves to watch TV, especially westerns. He also enjoys sitting on your lap and snuggling in bed. He does get along with cats, but true to his breed, he’s an aggressive hunter of small critters and rodents. Always ready to go for a ride, Graham Cracker is waiting for his new life to arrive.
