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.

This is Rufus, a 1.5 year old male American
Staffordshire Terrier mix. He's a good boy - very
gentle and affectionate. Rufus is happy and healthy -
already neutered and all set to find a loving, forever
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
have some obedience training. If you'd like to meet
sweet Rufus, please do some breed research, have a
fenced yard, and come in during adoption hours. He will
be very pleased to make your acquaintance!


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

master, but are
sometimes a
one-person dog.

 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.

our Kira is.
REMEMBER:
