Below are just a few of our dogs looking for their forever homes.
Our Featured Dogs:
Kimber
(Foster or Adopt)
HIGH PRIORITY: KENNEL STRESSED AND LOSING WEIGHT
Kimber is a very sweet female cuddle bug that is a 4+ years old bull terrier mix that weighs 62 pounds. If you want a true companion and a dog who is obedience trained, meet Kimber! Our girl is getting stressed by kennel life and is losing weight. We give her extra rations but the stress is not heathy for her. She needs to find a home, whether it is a foster home where she can relax and gain weight, or her forever home. Kimber is truly a WONDERFUL dog. A real companion who is loyal, obedient, loving, playful, and protective. Her ideal home is where a pet parent / foster would be working remotely without any pesky animals hogging her love and attention. She prefers a home with calm and quiet since small rambunctious children make her nervous.

Boze
Boze is a graduate of our obedience training program at North Central Prison. Many of our families who adopt graduates of this obedience program say the dog is the best dog they have ever had!
Boze is 2 years and 10 months old and weighs 51 lbs. We think he looks like a retriever mix with maybe some black mouth cur but cant be sure without a dna test. Boze is a proud graduate of our North Central Correctional Institute Obedience program. His handler said Bo is a very good dog. He loves to play with toys, and he's very good with other dogs. He knows sit and down. He is okay on a leash, but he likes to try to lead the way. He gets excited when he sees other dogs and will try to pull to them. He has good house manners and loves to be loved on. He has the softest fur. He is very food and toy driven and can be vocal when playing. He has a lot of character, and whoever is lucky enough to get him will have a best friend that they love very much.

Bobby Brown is a graduate of our obedience training program at North Central Prison. Many of our families who adopt graduates of this obedience program say the dog is the best dog they have ever had!
Bobby Brown is a 2 1/2 year old dog who weighs 52 lbs. We think he looks like a boxer mix or American Bulldog but without a DNA test we can't be sure. He is 100% lovable. Bobbie is a sweet dog who is good with kids. Bobby is a proud graduate of our obedience program at North Central Correctional Institute. His handler said Bobby is an energetic, fun, loving dog who loves to run and play with his rope and frisbee. Bobby loves the ladies and tends to bond better with females. He knows sit, high-five, shake, stay, down, come, give, and heel. He sounds ferocious when playing tug-a-war, but wouldn't hurt a fly. There isn't a mean bone in Bobby's body and he would make a great family dog.
