SODA "No need for 4 legs when you can do everything with just 3!" "And this is so probably because I am a Labrador and only 2 years old!" Soda had an accident and although attempts were made to fix his leg, in the end, it had to be removed. But, dogs adjust and so has he. He is a totally friendly boy and probably one of the most happiest dogs you will ever meet. He is housebroken and has done well around some other dogs. A fenced yard is preferred. |

LUCILLE "Ahhh, maybe a little highlights could hide the little bit of grey here and there". We know Lucille, it is heck to get older! But, even the more mature gals deserve that forever home too and Miss Lucille is going to patiently wait. She came to us from another shelter and was taken out of a hoarding situation. She captured our hearts and we know she will do the same to yours. She is a Spaniel mix of about 8-9 years old. She is housebroken but probably could not hold it for an 8 hour work day so she would appreciate having a human companion who is around a little more often. She has done well with other dogs and even cats. A comfortable dog bed, 2 square meals-a-day and lots of love will make this gals dreams come true. |

JACK Jack is a 3 year old White Shepherd/Husky mix who was adopted as a puppy and was cared for wonderfully. Unfortunately Jack had too hard of a time learning to love the cat of the house and is now in need of a new home. Jack's a great guy with a very loving personality. He gets along well with other dogs and should do fine with older children as well. Because of the Husky in him, Jack needs a fenced yard in his new home. ![]() |

MARLA "Quite the unusual sit pose"! I think she really didn't want to sit for her picture as she would rather get out in our yard and play but we had picture taking business to get done! Marla came to us from another shelter and her exact breed is a guess. She probably has some Lab in there but has some beautiful spotting on her chest and feet as you can see from her picture. She is about 45 pounds and a nice medium size dog. Marla is a young gal of about 1 years old. She is on-her-way learning some obedience commands but will need to have someone continue with this. Marla is a young gal with lots of energy and a fenced yard is preferred. |

TRINITY Available August 4 Such a unique girl! This is Miss Trinity. She is a 2 year old chow mix who tends to be a little more on the shy side. Trinity interacts well with other dogs. She's more of a laid back girl who prefers quiet time basking in the sun. Trinity does love her cuddle time as well. How can you not love that face? |
![]() |
BETTY Oh Miss Betty just loves to give hugs! She is a Lab/Shepherd mix of about 60 pounds so that is a lot of hug to receive. She is a sweet gal who should do well around most other dogs and older children. Betty has lots of energy and a fenced yard is preferred. |

RUDOLPH
Hi! My name is Rudolph. I am a 1 1/2 year old Min Pin. I have been working really hard on my manners and housebreaking. My foster mom says I have come a long way but I am still working on it. I love to run and play. I am always up for a game of fetch with my favorite squeaky toy. I really enjoy being around my human family. I am looking for someone who will be home most of the day with me because sometimes I get really scared when you leave. I am still learning that you are going to come back to me when you leave. I love to go on long walks and I get along great with other dogs especially if they will play tug of war with me! At the end of a long walk or a good play I will be very happy to curl up on the sofa next to you and watch some TV. If you have lots of love and time to spend with me, I would love to meet you! |

MOJO Here's Mojo! Lots of energy in this guy. Mojo is a Shepherd mix of about 2 1/2 years old. He is housebroken and does well around most other dogs - especially females. He gets excited when out in the yard and really enjoys barking at other dogs, children and people passing by, so he'll need some work on that or perhaps you wouldn't mind that. A privacy fence would be nice! He is an affectionate and loving dog.

BANJO It's hard to snap a picture of this man when he's not on the move! Banjo is a Beagle of about 6-7 years old. Don't let that age fool you. This little man is full of life!! He loves to play with other dogs of all sizes and would probably do well with children as well. Banjo is all beagle, so his new home should have a fenced in yard so he's not tempted to follow that nose of his too far! |

DUKE Duke is a German Shepherd of 2 years old. He is very smart and knows several obedience commands. He does well around most other dogs and is housebroken and crate trained.

FRANKLIN Franklin, Frank, Frankie... whatever you choose to call him, you can't help but call him cute! Franklin is a young hound mix who joins us from another shelter. Frank's a friendly guy who enjoys spending his days playing with other dogs, splashing in pools, chasing tennis balls and sharing slobbery kisses with his people. Basically, he's just an all around fun boy! |

NATE Nate returns to us due to no fault of his own. Nate is a 5-6 year old Dobie mix who just loves to be petted. He'll even give you his paw for more if you stop too soon! Car rides and walks or runs also rate high on his list! Nate sometimes forgets that he is not the boss, so an experienced owner would be best for him. Also any kids in his home should be teenage or older. Nate does well with all the other dogs at Camp K9 where he spends his days. |

BRIDGET![]() Here’s Bridget! Bridget is a 3 year old Border Collie rescued from a puppy mill. Bridget has made HUGE progress since first arriving at Pet Refuge. She loves to be petted and really just wants someone to love her. She is very smart and does have a lot of energy like most Border Collies. Bridget would be best with no other animals in the house and should do fine with children over 12. Bridget is crate trained and is almost housebroken. Because of her energy level Bridget will also need a fenced yard. Come meet this loving girl and fall in love!! |

KITTY Kitty has no idea what to think of this picture-taking ordeal! She is a great dog and my guess would be, she will be an agility winner some day! Kitty may do best in a home with no other dogs or perhaps a male dog. She is a great looking Border Collie of about 3-4 years old.
Kitty has recently started attending Agility class to boost her confidence. Antoinette, Owner and Instructor of "Top Hat & Tails" is helping her by giving her treats to make her feel a little more at ease. And if agility sounds like a fun activity that you would like to try with your dog, check Antoinette's website at: http://unleashtheirpotential.com/ |

EVEA Evea is a 2 year old Chihuahua - Rat Terrier mix. She is housebroken & would tell you if she wants to go out! She loves to go for walks (in the summer time) and would like to be the only dog in the house. She is good with older children (13+) and gets attached to one person once she gets to know you. She needs a fenced in yard. She LOVES to play fetch with her toys(though she doesn't always bring them back!) When she's in the kennel at Pet
Refuge then she doesn't show well, once you take her out to play then
she is fine. If you leave her at home when you're gone, she does not
destroy anything (she's good! You don't have to crate her). Update: If you are interested in Evea, please call or e-mail to make arrangements to meet her since she doesn't attend all adoption events. |

GABBY Gabby is a Boxer/Labrador mix of a little over a year old. Her new home should be one that has older children previous dog experience. She is a good girl but does tend to become a little protective over her family. She would benefit from continued obedience classes to help her with more socialization. Gabby has recently started to attend beginner agility and by the end of the class she was even going through the tunnels which is great! A fenced yard is required.

JANEY Janey is a 2 year old lab mix with a lot of energy and lots of love to give! She loves to go for long walks and is up for any kind of adventure. Janey loves a game of catch me if you can, so a fenced yard is required for this active girl. She is working on her recall and does well with training (especially if treats are involved!) Janey also loves to snuggle and likes to be a lapdog if you'll let her. She enjoys being brushed and getting any affection, and isn't shy with kisses! She gets along great with both dogs and cats and would love a family to call her own. |

mix. He is very loving and snuggly with people he knows. He is dog
and cat friendly. He loves to chew on a squeaky toy & play chase
with his foster brother. He growls at strangers and therefore needs
time to get used to new people. He is working on potty training in
his foster home. We request that his adopters have no young children
and have previous dog experience.

DELILA This spunky little Puggle is Delila who is 2 1/2 years old and seeking that special home that will have some time to spend with her and provide her with some good exercise. Delila would prefer to be the only dog in the home as she just doesn't want to share the attention. A home with older children and a fenced yard would make this gals wish list complete! |

JONAH Jonah came from another shelter and is a Chow mix of about 1 - 1 1/2 years old. Jonah is a sweetie in need of continued obedience work and is 99% housebroken. I do not think he has learned to properly play with other dogs prior to coming with us but he should do well with most other dogs that will either tolerate him or teach him proper play! He is still quite the playful pup so a home with older children would be best. A fenced yard is preferred. As pictured below, Jonah is quite affectionate and it is very hard to get past him without getting a hug and a smooch!

DOBBIE Dobbie (AKA Dobbs or Dobbers) is a gentle pup of about 10 months. He is part Treeing Walker Coon Hound and might be part Spaniel. He has been to puppy classes and knows his basic obedience commands. He is 97% housebroken with only occasional accidents. He is a great jumper, so he will need a 6 foot fence. Among the things he loves are: treats, long walks/running, napping in the afternoon sun, meeting new dogs and people, chasing cats, birds and squirrels, getting long neck scratches and he really enjoys a good brushing. Some of his dislikes include: being home alone (he really needs a buddy dog), loud noises and a lot of people coming and going. |

PUNKY Prefer the quiet life at home with little interruption? So does Punky! Punky is a 2-3 year old terrier mix who is quite the little lover to those he knows.

BILLIE Hi, I am Billie and I was brought in because my former owner had to move and couldn't take me with her. So now I am looking for a new forever home. I am a 7 year old male Fawn Pug & I am housebroken. I need a fenced in yard so that I can run and play. I would do well with another dog and children. Billie likes to sit on the couch with you and sleep in your bed. Oh, yes I do snore but not too loud. I also like to watch Animal Planet and will make you laugh every day. Won't you please come and see me, I know you will fall in love with me. I have a couple of minor medical problems.
I need to take Phenobarbital 2x day for seizures and Glucosamine for hip
problems. Both of these are very reasonably priced. |

LACEY Lacey had other things on her mind instead of having her picture taken! I think she wanted to romp in the yard! So, a profile shot is all I could get. But isn't she beautiful? Lacey came to us from another shelter and is a Treeing Walker Coonhound of about 8 years old. Lacey enjoys being around people, exploring in the yard and basically being a Hound-girl. She may do well around some other dogs but felines are not in her future! She should do fine around older children and a fenced yard is preferred. |

JACK Hi. My name is Jack and I am part of the Shepherd mix litter. But my foster mom says that I also have a lot of Terrier in me. Partly because of my crazy wirey terrier coat and partly because of my terrier personality. She says I'm very smart and that I'm going to need a job--my motto will be "Will work for treats and kisses"! I am working on my house-breaking and get along great with dogs and cats. I'm a big chewer so maybe toddlers are not a good idea right now. Anyway, if you want a dog with personality plus, I'm your man! |

TINKERBELL
Tinkerbell is a very special girl. Rescued form a shelter, her
previous owners did not care for her dry eye and our veterinarians
decided the best route for her would be to have her eye removed.
That has happened and she is back to her playful self. Tinkerbell
loves all dogs but is a rough player. She however doesn’t care for
the felines so a cat free home is needed. She would require a fenced
yard because she is so fast and eager to go. An active family would
be great for her. She is fine with all two legged people.

EINSTEIN Einstein is a French bull dog mix of three years. This poor dog lived his entire life on the porch in a cat carrier. A wonderful person convinced the owner that Pet Refuge could find this guy a great home with love and patience. Einstein is very shy of people but loves other dogs. We are working on his housebreaking and he's learning quickly. He needs to go to a home with very patient people to spoil him and give him the love that was lacking the first part of his life. Can we make sure that the last part of his life is absolutely the best. |

OLIVER
Oliver is a wonderful dog. He
is a husky/jack russell mix and he's almost a year old (his birthday
is August 26). He is smart, social and very
energetic. He truly wants to be your best friend and if you could
take him to work with you, he would love to go! Oliver is completely
housetrained, LOVES new people and all dogs, is great with kids and
knows many obedience commands. He will do best with another
energetic dog to play with. He does not jump or climb fences so a 4
foot fence would do fine for him. In his leisure time he enjoys
hanging out with his human family, chasing the wildlife in the
backyard, long walks and eating as many treats as you will give
him.

JACKSON Here's our boy Jackson! He's a 6 year old German Shorthaired Pointer with a great smile! Jackson is a super nice boy, but he sometimes gets nervous when meeting new people which is why Jackson is back playing his days away at Camp K9 waiting for his perfect forever home. Jackson also has a little dislike of cats, so no felines in the perfect home! Jackson's ideal home would be a quiet setting with not a lot of commotion. We told him that's no problem and that home will come along before he knows it! Could it be yours? ![]() |

KAIN
My name is Kain and I am a very brave 3 ½ month old Shepard -lab mix
puppy. I came to Pet Refuge after I was injured and my owner could not
afford the surgery to repair my leg. Somehow, I fell out of a car
window and broke my back leg. Unfortunately after trying to save
my leg, it did not heal right and I wasn’t feeling too well. So
now I have three legs and my foster family calls me a “tripod”, but I
don’t know what the big deal is. I am feeling much better and can’t wait
to run all over the yard. I could do it now but my foster family says I
need to heal. I am a very sweet boy and learning lots of new
tricks daily. I am looking for my forever family to love me and I
will love them back.
My surgeries were a little costly. I would be so grateful if you could
help Pet Refuge with any donations towards the cost. They have been so
good to me!

Lilly, Libra, Leo, Luther, Lobo, and Lazer
Available July 31st
These 6 adorable puppies are lab mixes – their mother was a lab and
their
father hasn’t come forward yet. But whatever they might be mixed with,
they sure are adorable. They
will
be 8 weeks old on Saturday, July 31st and will most likely be
medium-large dogs when fully grown.
This
litter had a rough start in life. They were orphaned when they were just
a few days old and were raised with a bottle. By now, all six of them
are happy and healthy puppies that can’t wait to move into their forever
homes where they can run and play all day.
More
pictures to come – but come and check them out before they’re all
adopted!

RHODA My name is Rhoda. I'm 3 months old (DOB 5-2-10), and a Terrier/ Shepherd mix. Mom is 20#, and looks like Benji. I should be a medium sized adult, and I'm very leggy right now! I currently live with 3 other dogs, a cat, and a toddler. I'm crate trained and still working on potty training (and doing well!). I like playing in water, racing around the yard like a maniac, and being a lap dog. I'm looking for a loving, active home. Meet me at the shelter on Saturday, 11-4; or Wednesday 6-8 by appointment. Thank you for supporting Pet Refuge! ![]() ...and yes, she has a tail, it's just blurry from wagging so hard.... |

Marley is a 9 1/2 year old Afghan Hound / Irish Setter mix. He loves
girl dogs, napping, going for walks, playing fetch, chewing on a
nylabone, and being brushed. He has excellent house manners but

fireworks. He requests a fenced-in yard with no cats and children
under the age of 8.

In the meantime, he's having a great time playing at Camp K9 everyday. Gabe does well with the other dogs in daycare and truly loves every person he meets. Gabe seems to be quite the bird dog, so a fenced in yard may be best for him. |

ROOGER Rooger's family moved and could not take him a long with them, so he is in need of a new home. He is a Husky of about 3-4 years old. He has excellent kennel manners and I would tend to believe that he would have the same in his new home. The other dogs at the shelter do not seem to bother him so he may do well around most other ones. A home with older children and a fenced yard would be best for him. |
