Adopted Dogs

Breed: Shepherd / Husky Mix
Age: 18 years
Gender: Female (Spayed)

Aleu, as you can see, is a gorgeous Husky/Shepherd mix. She is an energetic dog, who is looking for a new home where she will have room to run or maybe an owner that loves to jog. She is crate trained and likes other dogs and children. She is wary of strangers, but warms up to people very quickly. She can easily jump a chain link fence, so she would do best in a home with a fence she can't climb or jump over.

Breed: Border Collie / Husky Mix
Age: 16 years
Gender: Male

This handsome guy was rescued from a rural shelter, along with his litter mate Amy. He has one blue eye and one black eye. When he is full grown we estimate that he will be about 40 pounds. Because he is a border collie mix, we expect him to be very intelligent and trainable.

Breed: Labrador Retriever / Shepherd Mix
Age: 15 years
Gender: Mixed

Alex is the last one left of his litter. As you can see, Alex takes more after the Shepherd side of the family. Shepherds are very smart, loyal dogs, and are highly trainable.

Breed: Dachshund Mix
Age: Adult
Gender: Male

Alex is a sweet little boy. Although he came to the shelter very scared, he is friendly and loving.

Breed: Miniature Pinscher / Beagle Mix
Age: 12 years
Gender: Male

Alex came to us from the Nicholas County Shelter. He currently only weighs about 13 pounds and should not get much bigger. His foster mom says that he loves to play with his toys. Alex is both house trained and crate trained. He is a very smart puppy and catches on very quickly.

Breed: Basset Hound
Age: 13 years
Gender: Female

Alex is short like a Basset Hound (though taller and sleeker) and has the ever-sniffing nose of a Bloodhound. Her long ears are surprisingly soft and has soulful, come-pet-me eyes! She has a sweet, playful disposition with plenty of energy on walks and romping around the backyard. She romps up the stairs without any problem and would be happy to sit in your lap, if given the opportunity. She is housetrained and only seems to bark when playing. Alex does fine with other dogs and, while she has not been around cats, she is very laid-back. She may have enjoyed a few too many people snacks in the past, as her nose knows when you have something tasty.

Breed: Labrador Retriever / Dalmatian Mix
Age: 15 years
Gender: Male (Neutered)

Alex and Ellie's owner is in his 80's and in poor health. After a quadruple bypass, a pacemaker, and a broken collarbone, he has decided he must find them a new home. Alex looks to be a lab/hound/rottie mix. He is 10 years old, and his original owner was killed in 9-11. Alex survived for a number of weeks in his owner's apartment with another dog until someone found them. They were taken to a shelter where Alex's buddy was was adopted the same day they arrived, and Alex was left there alone until rescued by his owner today. Alex has a gentle soul and is very quiet natured. Ellie is a 6 year-old, dalmation/lab mix and ended up at the shelter after wandering the streets. She was emaciated, had a broken pelvis, and had been abused. Her current owner adopted her and nursed her back to health both emotionally and physically. Today, Ellie is a hapy, healthy girl who loves to sit on her owner's lap (when he lets her!). She likes to "mother" Alex and is energetic and playful. Please find it in your heart to give Alex and Ellie a loving home and their owner the peace of mind that his dogs will be loved as he loved them.

Breed: Pointer
Age: 3 years
Gender: Female (Spayed)

Alexa is a beautiful pointer. She is loving, cuddly, and loves to play.  She’s is housetrained and crate trained. She enjoys going for walks with her mom, but is also happy in the backyard hanging out with the last of her pups. She thinks a lap is the best place to be and just loves kids. If you let her, she will give our lots of kisses.  Sometimes Alexa acts like she can’t believe how lucky she is to be getting attention and tummy rubs.  If you bring her into your home, she will be eternally grateful for any bits of love that are tossed her way and will shower you with all the love you can imagine.

Alexa and her pups came to us from Alabama. They were is very poor shape when the arrived as some were not nursing and one had breathing problems. We have been very lucky to have a team of volunteers that jumped in to help these poor babies, bottle feeding and nebulizing them. Thanks to our dedicated volunteers, this litter is now thriving and are all doing very well. We believe they will make a full recovery and can not wait to find their forever homes!

Rocky is a real gem. He loves attention from his humans and is great with kids. He would do well as a jogging partner or is a family where he has play time in the backyard.
