Are you the missing piece of Azzy’s incredible transformation story? This beautiful, youthful soul first arrived at the shelter as a timid and shy dog, finding the world a very scary place. She was timid around new faces and loud noises, but with patience and gentle encouragement, she has made significant progress.
Azzy’s sensitivity is truly a gift. Once she knows you are a friend, she is deeply affectionate and will melt your heart with her puppy spirit and sweet cuddles. She’s looking for a calm, predictable home where her new family understands she might need a little time to warm up.
If you are interested in meeting this sweet girl, apply here! 💕✨🦮

Meet Lincoln
Lincoln is a spirited 2-year-old chihuahua mix with a big personality and a bit more to love—he weighs in at 25 pounds, making him larger than your typical chi. Energetic and playful, Lincoln loves long walks and thrives in an active home where he can get plenty of mental and physical stimulation.
He’s looking for a dog-savvy, adult-only household with no other dogs. So far he has done well with cats.
True to his breed, Lincoln can be vocal—he’s not shy about expressing himself, especially when he’s excited or uncertain. Lincoln is also working on his manners-he tends to jump up on people when he is excited, so continued training will help channel that energy in a more polite way. He’s also working through some separation anxiety, so a patient adopter willing to provide structure and continued training will be key to his success.
Lincoln would do best with someone familiar with chihuahuas and their larger-than-life personalities—someone who can offer consistency, affection, and the space he needs to decompress, settle in and thrive.
If you’re ready for a loyal, energetic companion who’s full of heart, Lincoln might just be your perfect match.

Meet Rat & WeeWee
Introducing Rat and WeeWee the cutest pair of seniors! Despite being almost 14 years old, they play like they are only 6 years old. They have spunk, and spice and everything nice. Rat is a scruffy terrier mix with the cutest hair do and WeeWee is a toothless bundle of shi tzu. They may be tiny but they are mighty little loves. They love belly rubs and snuggles and anything to do with affection. They are puppy pad trained and would do best in a home with older children, their demeanor around other dogs and cats is unknown. Please consider giving these sweeties a home to live the rest of their lives in 🙂

Our Trudy-Lou-Who:
One of the cutest Lou’s in Who-Ville
BOING-BOING-BOING
“My name is Trudy Lou! I lived most of my life as a hunter. After my first owner hurt himself and couldn’t care for me anymore, I went with another hunting fellow who was very good to me- but I didn’t want to hunt! He would start me off on a trail and I would just decide to play instead, even engaging all the other hunting dogs in play time and distracting everyone! While it was very cute and charming, it is not the right behavior for a hunting dog. So here I am at the Ark, awaiting my family life!
Anyone want to play?”
Love Trudy-Lou
Great temperament, excellent playmate with other well-behaved dogs, and loves people- Trudy is a GREAT dog. She is going to make an excellent companion.
Trudy will be a fantastic family dog (probably not toddlers, as she likes to jump-as you can clearly see). She is very impressive with her house training, but sometimes has accidents overnight because she is alone at the shelter. During the day though potty accidents! We feel if someone were with her and she were with her family in a house, that there would be minimal accidents and she would do very well. Trudy will need a home where she can play, engage in outside activity with her family, and run around. Trudy is a 4 year old plott-hound, and just a ball of energy. Four years old? DON’T sweat it. This girl is a puppy in her mind and body.
Trudy is vocal and can often times bark when excited. She is a hound- so preferably someone with hound experience would be her perfect owner. We know hounds- they can be wonderful family dogs, but sometimes take a bit of patience and understanding.
Please give us a call to meet Trudy Lou, today!

These two dogs are such good boys. They are so quiet and calm, and just really chill to be around. We think that Jack may have eaten a little too much turkey on Thanksgiving (and last Thanksgiving..and the Thanksgiving before that)…but we digress. We LOVE a little extra dog to love! We are happily accepting applications and meet and greet appointments on these guys. They will be thrilled to meet you, too!
