This is Bronson, our 2 year old Amstaff mix. If his pic looks 
like a mug shot it's because he just came in and he's very sad, so of course, he 
will be counting on you to come in and rescue him. We don't have a good feel for 
his personality yet since he's still be pretty scared, but we will be sure to 
update when he settles in a little. Bronson will require breed knowledge, dog 
school and a fenced yard. Children 8 and up. Oh yea, and no cats.

						Staffordshire Terrier mix.  He's a good boy - very 
						gentle and affectionate.  Rufus is happy and healthy -

						home.  He'd like his children to be age 7 and up and to 
						be the best dog he can possibly be, he's required to

						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!
 
 
 
 

						Nikko is a 4 month old 
						male Labrador mix.  He has all the sweet qualities that 
						Labs are known for.  He is gentle, snugly, and playful.  
						He loves to be loved!  He is a very smart puppy and 
						learns new commands quickly.  He is good with other 
						dogs, and he is 
	respectful and well behaved around cats - he has been great with Jasmine - 
	he is also very good in the car.
	Nikko will need a fenced yard for his protection, 
						puppy training to be a true gentleman, and his children 
						should be 6+.  Nikko is just starting his life and it 
						would be so wonderful for him to grow up in a home with 
						a family rather than an
						
						animal shelter.

 
 
 
 

						

						

						

						

	
						
Juno is a 4 month old Shepherd / Husky mix.  This 
						mixed breed makes a wonderful, well-rounded pet.  Juno 
						loves to play - typical puppy.  He is beautiful and 
						growing up quickly.  He loves attention and likes to be 
						pet.  Because of his energy level, children should be 
						10+.  He will be required to have a fenced yard and
						puppy 
						obedience school so he can learn all of his 
						manners.  
						Juno may still need a little help with house 
						training.  Please come and meet Juno - he would so like 
						to get out of the kennel and into a real home with a
						
						loving family who will care for him all of his 
						life.

 

						
						
 

						
 

						

						

						

						

	
						
						
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.

 

	
						
						
 

						
 

						
 

	
					
					
					

					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.
