We're back - our new location is OPEN! We've still got lots of babies needing forever homes!

Stars of the weekend - POPPY & AVA! Ava is Poppy's mama, but they do not need to be adopted together. They arrived with 3 other pups, so guess what that means?? They're already dog tested!

Ava is surprisingly calm for a Heeler mix, but she still has energy to burn!

Poppy is a PUPPY, only 7 months old, with tons of potential - that gorgeous black coat makes her a showstopper, but she hasn't quite grown into her ears yet!

Both of these sweet ladies need ACTIVE homes and applicants should be familiar with the breed. Herding dogs like to herd! We do not know if they would be good with cats, but we highly suspect they'd be great with kiddos!

Come visit them at our NEW SHELTER location and fill out an application to set up a meet & greet!

For more info & photos, plus to APPLY TO ADOPT OR FOSTER POPPY OR AVA, please visit the link/s below! Swipe through their photos for direct profile links!
