Perdido is a one-year-old neutered Lab Mix with a vibrant spirit. He finds great pleasure in rough housing outside with some of our big rope toys, tossing them in the air and chasing wildly after them. Our plans are to enroll him in basic obedience classes, but wouldn’t it be great for his new “guardian(s)” to accompany him. Because of his size and exuberance, Perido is not suited at this time for a home with children under seven years of age. Once lost, Perdido is ready to be discovered.

Scotie is a very handsome, eight-year-old Old English Sheepdog who arrived at the Shelter with his best friend Yoder. Although they enjoy each other’s company, they would both adjust well to a new life apart.
We are concerned that he may have some hearing loss, but without any definitive test, we can only guess he is hard of hearing or selective about what he does hear. He currently lacks recall skills, so a fenced yard or tie out, along with leashed walks, are in order. He will require regular grooming as he has a long coat that either needs to be brushed/combed several times a week, or clipped several times a year. A wonderful breed full of companionship and love, Scotie’s waiting to go home.

Full of life and energy, Yoder is an eight-year-old Australian Shepherd who arrived at the Shelter with his buddy Scotie. He enjoys going for long walks, hikes, and car rides too. He knows some basic obedience commands, but like Scotie, would benefit from some confident, consistent leadership. Yoder loves being around people, and is looking for a new home with lots of love to offer.

Sparkle and Cricket are six-month-old Border Collie mix pups awaiting their forever homes. Because they had very little socialization prior to arriving at the Shelter, we are just now starting to see those inner sparks. They are both walking well on a leash and excelling at their house training skills (Collie smarts). Playful and as cute as can be, Sparkle and Cricket are like open canvases waiting for you to add a brush of color and life. Together, or as one, they’ll be lots of fun.

Hi there, my name is Duke, and I’m a one year old All-American Breed mix. They tell me that I’m as tough as I am sweet. See my past is a little sad because I was abused. Despite all of that, I do love people, children, and other dogs—but sometimes I get a little nervous around men. Everyone at The Ark is so nice and they tell me that I’m going to have a new, loving home soon. I really like going for walks, playing ball, and rolling around in the snow. I’m Duke, and I’m a lover, not a fighter.
