2023-02-22T01:41:05-05:00

His Story  Opie was surrendered to our center when his people said that they no longer wanted him. He is very shy and scared. He can get intimidated easily and can react if he feels threatened, so we are hoping for a calm and quiet home for him, without other animals or small children. He is very good when distractions are limited and [...]

Shadow

2023-05-22T22:29:56-05:00

Her Story  Shadow was surrendered to our center when her people couldn't keep her. She is very friendly and curious. This little girl can jump quite high, and if there is a lap to climb into, she will do her best to jump high enough to land herself in it. Shadow can be somewhat of an escape artist so she should never be [...]
