Adopted: Megan

Quick Facts: Breed: Schipperke mix Gender: Female Age: 12 years young Size: 20 pounds Good with… Dogs? Yes! Cats? Yes! Kids? Yes! 6+ Hi! My name is Megan, and I am sweet, easygoing, and insanely adorable! History I was surrendered to a high-kill shelter in Kentucky along with another senior dog– my people said they couldn’t take care of us anymore. He was named Charlie, and I was named Manson, which seemed to make everyone around us sad. We went to different rescues, so we’re both safe, but it was very sad to be given away and also to lose my best buddy. I was renamed Megan, which I think is lovely, and as I know my new name now very well, I want to keep it please! Personality I’m an incredibly sweet girl—friendly, easygoing, relaxed, and adorable. I have some good energy and feistiness too, which I am told…

Thanks!** Zoë I’m an adorable, joyful, playful but shy little pup looking for a loving home with another dog! History I came from a situation where the people weren’t very nice to me. And while I am absolutely loving learning now that people can be amazingly sweet and kind, I am still quite cautious and will cower or run and hide when humans move too quickly or reach for me (especially over my head). If people let me take my time, watch them from a safe distance, and then come to them when I’m ready, I feel much happier and safer, and…

I was found as a stray puppy by a really sweet guy who lived on a farm. He kept me, loved me, and I had a fine life roaming around the farm with him all day long.

Yes! 6+ Hi, I’m Bella, which means beautiful in Italian, and everyone says that is the perfect word to describe my soul! History I was adopted by a wonderful human mom many years ago. We and another older, smaller dog lived together so happily and with so much love until our mom passed away 5 months ago. Her passing was the saddest thing ever. We didn’t have any place to go, so mom’s vet clinic boarded us while they searched for new homes for us. After 5 months of patient waiting, we both found places to go! I got to enter the CDR foster program and am now living in a wonderful foster home which is so much fun, I cannot stop smiling! There is a really…

My name is Joey and I am the best cuddler and most loyal companion you will ever find! History I was lucky to be rescued at one year-old by my current owner. I had been abandoned at the local SPCA and was unsure what would happen to me, and then this nice elderly lady came and brought me home! We’ve been together for seven years now, and it has been soooo nice! I kept her warm at night by sleeping in bed with her when she needed me, I have chased the pesky squirrels out of the yard (she never asked me to do this, but I could tell she wanted me to), and I let her know when anyone…
