Hello, my name is Kara.  I am a terrier mix that weighs thirteen pounds and is about two years old.  My family lost me and a nice lady helped me get to the rescue.  My old family wasn’t always so nice to me and I will get down on my belly if you raise your voice or move too fast toward me.  I still want to love you no matter how you talk to me.    I love to play ball with you or maybe you could rub my tummy.  I think running is fun and exciting.  I hope my new family has a fenced yard that I can run and play safely in.  Sometimes I like to just sit and chew on a toy or get petted by you.  I can walk on a leash but I really don’t like it much and I know stay, lie down, go outside if you want to tell me what you want...read more about Kara

   Hi, I'm Little Bear but you can call me Bear.  I weigh nine pounds and am over two years old.  Some say I am a chihuahua, others say I am a mix.  You know I really don't care because I don't believe this is about what I am but about who I am.    I came to the rescue after my house burned down and my two legged family decided to leave the state instead of returning to our rebuilt home.  I originally came with my furry brother King George but he already got adopted so sadly it's just me again.      I do have a friend here at the rescue that I really like to be with, his name is Harry.  Maybe you want two boys to keep you company?  I like other dogs but I am ok just being with you too.  &nb...read more about Little Bear

   Hello, my name is Trinity.  I am about two years old and weigh eleven pounds.  I came to the rescue after I was found out by the airport.  Shortly after I arrived I gave birth to eight wonderful children.  They are all ready for homes of their own now and so I am looking for just the right home too.   I really love people but I don't like to share them with other dogs.  So I am looking for a home that just wants me!  I love to cuddle, like kids of all ages and to have my belly rubbed.  If a stranger comes to the door I will bark and let you know, after all I am here to protect my family.  I have been spay and vaccinated and am all ready to move in with you.  Just go to www.dogsasfamily.com and fill out an adoption applic...read more about Trinity

      Hi Everyone, My name is Clark. I am a male terrier mix that is about three years old.  I weigh 23 lbs and my coat is rough & kind of curly.      I was at a shelter in the Southern part of the state and no one wanted to adopt me.  Do you think they can’t look past my eyes?  I will admit I am blind in one but I was born that way and it doesn’t both me at all.  Life goes on and I want to live it.      The rescue here said that I could come and live with them so here I am.  They took me to the vet and I was vaccinated,neutered and microchipped.  I started my heartworm preventative and also frontline to prevent flea and ticks.      I like other dogs, kids, pe...read more about Clark

Hey everybody, my name is Heidi. I am over three years old and I am a bassett/aussie mix. I weigh about 50 lbs and am kind of low to the ground.I was very happy in my home until my mom got sick and went to the hospital. She never came home again. It was so fast; just a couple of hours and her children came and threw all of us furry people out of the house. We are all so sad and miss her very much.I need a new family or single person now.I am housetrained and crate trained and will sleep on the bed if you let me. I get excited and jump up on you sometimes but if we could work on that I will try to control myself. It is just so hard because I am happy to see you. I can’t say the same for kids, they scare me.I have always lived in the house and I will try to behave myself but I must admit my...read more about Heidi

   Wow, it's so nice to meet you!  I am Lacie.  I weigh 46 lbs., am a lab mix and will be three years old at the end of July.   I was born in a field under an old car and the rescue came and got my mom and us kids when were we were babies.  She found a home for me when I was about twelve weeks old but the wood fence blew down and I can climb the four foot chain link they have now so, they returned me.   While I was with my old family I went to PetSmart and took classes with my parents.  I learned some basic manners and how to walk on a leash.  If I don't think you know I have manners I might just pretend I don't understand what you are saying.  It's kind of a game for me.  I did get to go to the prison training program and wo...read more about Lacie
