Xin
Xin’s story is heartbreaking - adopted as a puppy with his sister Vera, only to be abandoned on the streets when they were all grown up. 💔
Now this sweet 3-year-old boy is looking for a safe, loving place to land so he can get back to being the affectionate companion he was always meant to be.
✨ About Xin:
🐶 3 years old, neutered, ~68 lbs
💕 Total people lover — no stranger danger, soft eyes, leans in for pets and belly rubs
🚗 Rides nicely in the car and was a perfect gentleman at the vet
🐾 Knows some basic obedience and has no handling issues
🐕 Mild leash reactivity toward other dogs at times, but it’s manageable. He prefers calm, respectful dogs and slow, controlled introductions
🧠 Low drive, velcro personality, he wants to be near his people most of all
Xin doesn’t need much just a patient foster willing to give him structure, love, and a cozy place to rest while he waits for his forever family. He will give back tenfold with loyalty and endless affection. ❤️
📩 If you can open your home to Xin, even temporarily, please reach out today. Fostering truly saves lives.

Xari
Looking for a fun, happy, energetic buddy to brighten your holiday season? Xari is your girl! About a year old and ~50 lbs, she’s a sweet, affectionate pup who loves to learn and thrives with an active handler.
She’s friendly with all dogs, kennels quietly next to any dog, and even had a successful fence-to-fence meeting with many others - total good vibes. She comes when called, rides great in the car, and while she’s high-energy, she’s not a ball-chaser… just a joyful, goofy companion ready to be included in whatever you’re doing.
Xari would love a warm home, a soft bed, and someone to share her big heart with for the holidays. 💛

Raya
If you’re hoping to make a difference this holiday season, little Raya would love nothing more than a warm home and a soft place to land. 💕
Raya is about 1 year old and 50 pounds of absolute sweetness. She’s social, affectionate, and was even kenneled with another dog at the shelter - always appropriate, always friendly. She greeted her new dog friends with a wag and walked beautifully on leash once she got a little energy out. Moderate energy, great manners, and she comes when called. ⭐️
Oh, and her ball drive? Elite. She’s a professional little goof who got adorably distracted watching another dog play with a ball because she just wants in on the fun!
If you’ve got an open spot on your couch this holiday season, Raya is ready to fill it with love, companionship, and the cutest wiggles. 🐾

Sage
Meet Sage, a 5-month-old, 44-lb pup who just needs the right foster home to help her confidence bloom. 💚 She loves the companionship of other dogs and would do best with a playful canine buddy to show her the ropes.
Sage is dog-social, more submissive than bold, and avoids conflict. She may be a little mouthy on leash but is improving, and while she has lots of puppy energy, she tires out quickly. She has no toy drive, ignored the horses she met, and warms up beautifully once she feels safe - going from shy to playful with adorable play bows.
Sage needs a calm, patient foster home where she can feel secure, build confidence, and truly shine. If you can offer her a soft place to land (and maybe a dog friend to play with), Sage will reward you with sweet companionship and puppy charm.

Griff
Griff has truly been through the ringer, and his body tells a story he never should’ve had to live. When he first arrived, he barely wanted to interact… but now? Now this gentle, 7-year-old, 80-pound sweetheart is finally showing us he still has hope left in him.
He’s discovering that life can be soft. He’s finding comfort in people who are kind. And he even has a little crush on a friendly female dog he tried so hard to be buddies with.
Griff is low energy, walks nicely on leash, and has no ball drive or high-drive needs. He’s respectful during feeding time, doesn’t jump up, and his skin; once covered in painful, bloody spots, is already healing with proper care. He’s sweet, he’s gentle, and he’s so, so thankful to feel safe.
All Griff needs now is a warm, loving foster home to continue his recovery and show him what his golden years are supposed to look like: soft beds, steady meals, kind hands, and peace.
He’s done his part by surviving. Now he just needs someone willing to open their home and give him a chance.
Could that be you? 🧡
Please reach out if you can foster Griff and help him finally experience the love he deserves.

Paris
Paris is about 2 years old and is looking for a foster home where she can shine 🌟 This affectionate girl is very human-focused and loves being close to her people. She has high energy with a moderate drive and is happiest when she’s running around, playing ball, or enjoying quality time with her humans.
Paris walks nicely on leash, rides quietly and calmly in the car, and soaks up affection whenever it’s offered. She can get a bit overstimulated by other dogs running around, so she’ll do best in a home that can help her stay focused and set her up for success. Because she’s just a little too excited by them, no livestock for this gal.
If you’re active, patient, and looking for a loving, fun companion who’s eager to bond with you, Paris could be your perfect foster match 💕
Fostering saves lives - help Paris take her next step toward a brighter future. 🐾

Cyrus
Meet Cyrus, a calm, loyal soul looking for a foster home where he can truly relax and thrive.
Cyrus is a 5½-year-old, 75-lb low-energy companion who prefers a peaceful pace of life. Even around high-energy dogs, he remains steady and unbothered, with no ball drive and excellent manners. He walks nicely on a slip lead, especially after a quick chance to zoom around the yard, and is quiet and content in his crate.
This sweet guy is a bit of a Velcro dog and he bonds closely with his person and shows his affection with gentle, polite hugs. He rides well in the car, behaves beautifully at the vet, and enjoys simple pleasures like bully sticks and chew toys.
Cyrus is a sensitive boy who may feel a little anxious with new routines or environments at first. With patience, consistency, clear boundaries, and lots of love, he quickly settles in and truly shines. He would do best in a foster home that appreciates a calm, affectionate companion and can offer structure and reassurance.
If you’re looking for a loyal shadow and an easygoing best friend, Cyrus may be your perfect foster match.

Everett
This big, quiet docile boy is looking for a foster home where he can finally exhale and just be loved.
Everett is about 3 years old, 68 lbs, and the definition of a Velcro dog. He’s low energy, low drive, and far more interested in being close to his people than chasing toys. He’d much rather rest his head in your lap than dive into a food bowl. Human affection and praise are his greatest rewards.
He shows his joy with sweet play bows every time he sees you, walks beautifully on a slip lead with little to no pull, and is calm, quiet, and respectful in the home. Everett has no food or resource guarding issues and does well with other dogs with proper introductions.
Everett is searching for a foster home that can offer love, security, and companionship. He’s not a high-energy sport dog - he’s a loyal family companion who wants to belong.
If you’re looking for a gentle soul to share your space (and your couch), Everett may be your guy.
