This handsome young man is Guinness, our 1 year old Australian Cattle Dog mix.  He's got a lot of energy and affection for people.  Cattle Dogs are one of the most intelligent breeds and need to be part of the action! They are loyal, protective and alert. An excellent guard dog. Brave and trustworthy. Very good in the obedience ring as well as in herding and agility. Can be obedience trained to a very high level. Firm training from the start and a lot of daily leadership, along with daily mental and physical exercise will produce a fine and happy pet.  Australian Cattle Dogs are absolutely loyal and obedient to their master, but are sometimes a one-person dog.  Obedience training, a 6 foot privacy fence, and children 6+ are required for Guinness.  Come meet this lively fellow! Guinness is present on Sundays for interviews, but on Wednesdays, please call for an appointment.

 

 

Kira is a beautiful young lady.  She is a Yellow Laborador / American Staffordshire Terrier mix.  At 1 year old, she is very playful, yet loving.  She likes to snuggle and be pet and showered with affection.  She walks well on a leash, is house trained, and yearning for her forever home with a loving family.  Could that family be yours?  To be a good match for Kira, you need to be prepared by having a fenced yard, have children that are 7 or over, and agree to take Kira to obedience training to help her be the most perfect pet!  Come see for yourself how pretty and sweet our Kira is.
 

 

 

 

Teddy is a very unique looking puppy!  He is a Dachshund and American Eskimo mix who is 5 months old.  He’s sweet as pie and loves to play – as any puppy should.  This little angel has been house trained and acclimated with other dogs and gets along wonderfully. He is very affectionate and loves to cuddle but is in no way insecure. He seems very comfortable within his own self. He is also ready and eager to learn and please. He's just a really good boy ! His children should be 7 and up.  Please come in to meet Teddy – it’s hard on a puppy to be cooped up in a kennel environment.  He needs to be in a home and bonding with his new family!

 

 

 

 

 

This sweet girl is Dolly.  She is a Jack-a-Bee (Jack Russell Terrier/Beagle) or possibly a Harrier.  Whatever breed she may be, she’s precious!  Dolly is about 1 year old and very playful and snuggly.  Her markings are a beautiful copper color and she’s SO soft.  Children who live with Dolly should be at least 5 years old and Dolly’s yard should have a 6 foot privacy fence so she can play safely.  Obedience training is required for this little lady so that she becomes even better behaved.  Please come in during adoption hours and spend a little time with Dolly – she will steal your heart!

 

 

 

 

 

Meet Holly, our 1 year old female Puggle (Pug/Beagle mix).  You don’t see too many solid black Puggles – which makes Holly all the more striking!  She’s a good girl, who is very playful and super affectionate.  Holly’s children should be 5 years or older.  Humane Haven would like Holly to go for obedience training to help her be a well rounded, well behaved family pet. Fenced yard required. No chain link fences.

Bonita - is a precious, little angel.  She is a 3 year old female Chihuahua who is calm, quiet, affectionate, and loves to be cuddled.  Children at Bonita’s house should be 8+ and she would like a home where she isn’t left alone for long periods of time.  She loves human companionship – more than that of other dogs.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

REMEMBER: A dog is not a toy or an object, it is a living, loving, caring, FEELING being. Adoption means making him/her an important part of your family, and committing to it's care for ALL of the rest of it's life.
