Meet Vinaigrette — a.k.a. “Vinnie” (2 years)

This sweet girl is as lovable as her name is unique!

While we don’t know much about her past, Vinnie clearly had a home at some point — she’s already house-trained and knows how to “sit” like a pro. Vinnie is the ultimate Velcro dog, happiest when she’s right by her human’s side. She gets along with other dogs, but she’d truly thrive as the only pet in the home where she can soak up all the love and attention. In her foster home, we’ve noticed a few guarding behaviors with other dogs, so she’s looking for a home where she can be the star of the show. She does well in a crate with just a little initial whining, but Vinnie would much rather be with her people — she loves companionship and will stick by you through it all. While she hasn’t shown much interest in toys just yet, her goofy, playful personality still shines through. Vinnie would make an amazing companion for someone who enjoys spending time outdoors and wants a loyal best friend by their side. With a little patience and consistency, she’s going to be an incredible addition to the right home.

Meet Dutton! (4 years)

Dutton is an easygoing, lovable guy with a gentle heart and a tail that never quits wagging.

He’s a staff favorite for good reason — his sweet manners, friendly personality, and calm, affectionate nature make him a joy to be around. He enjoys going for walks, gets along well with other dogs, and has a blast with food enrichment toys. Whether he’s exploring or just hanging out, Dutton is happiest when he’s with his people. This handsome boy is ready to bring loyalty, companionship, and plenty of happy tail wags to his forever home.

Meet Ryana (1 year old)

Ryana is a one-year-old Shepherd mix with a big heart and an even bigger love for adventure. This gentle girl is a favorite among our volunteers, especially on hiking outings where she happily explores by your side. Ryana thrives around other dogs, easily matching their energy and making her a fantastic playmate. She’s also great with kids, though she’s still working on her excitement and could use a little guidance with her jumping manners. When it’s time to play, nothing makes her happier than a tennis ball, she’ll chase it all day if you let her! If you’re looking for a loyal, active companion who’s always ready for fun, Ryana might be your perfect match.

Meet Teddy (2 years old)

Teddy is one of Ryana’s favorite playmates and a dog who’s been patiently waiting far too long for his forever home. Teddy is a 2 year old Terrier, American Staffordshire. After spending nearly two years in three different shelters, Teddy is more than ready to leave kennel life behind. While he may sound a little tough from behind a kennel door, it’s only because he’s scared. Once he’s out, he’s truly the biggest teddy bear. Teddy is well-trained, knows his basic commands, and has an excellent recall. He does best with a slow introduction to men, as they can make him nervous at first, but with patience and trust, he warms up beautifully. He’s great with other dogs, but would probably do best in a home with teenagers or adults. He’s a loyal, loving companion just waiting for someone to give him the chance he deserves.
