Hey friends! We honestly don't have the time to make a fancy post with a cutesy image to boost views. We're just here to say.....
We DESPERATELY need adoptions!!!! Please please please, view our website and check out some amazing cats and dogs that we are overflowing with, and submit an application.
We are quite short staffed at the moment, and while we are eager to adopt out as many as we can, we will only have one counselor available. If you walk in, please be patient with us while we work diligently to help as many customers and facilitate as many adoptions as we are able to.
We are open today 12-4:30; animal visitations will stop at 4:00.

Meet Raisin, Prune, and Blackberry 🖤🐾
These adorable little puppies are about 2 months old and are full of all the typical puppy energy, chaos, and sweetness you could imagine! From zoomies to toys to tiny puppy teeth, these babies are ready to take on the world one adventure at a time.
They are looking for families who are prepared for all the puppy antics that come with raising a young pup — training, patience, playtime, and lots of love included. While they love each other, these puppies must go to separate homes so they can each grow and thrive on their own.

Meet Lychee 🍓🐾
This adorable little girl is about 2 months old and FULL of puppy energy! Lychee is all about zoomies, playtime, and exploring the world with those tiny but mighty puppy piranha teeth. She’s looking for an active home that is ready for all the fun (and chaos!) that comes with raising a puppy.
Lychee may be a husky, shepherd, or a mix of both — we aren’t completely sure — but we do know she’ll thrive with a family familiar with intelligent, active breeds and committed to training, structure, and plenty of exercise as she grows.
If you’re ready for puppy antics, lots of laughs, and a lifelong adventure buddy, Lychee may be your perfect match! 💕
