PUPPY UPDATE!!!
Reese - Adopted
Hazel - Adoption Pending
Kylo - Adoption Pending
These puppies will be available soon to meet by appointment only with an approved application.
Any of these adorable Pomeranian mixed puppies will surely liven up your life. We think they will be small to medium sized but there is no guarantee.
They may be shy at first but they warm up quickly and love to sit in your lap and crave your attention.
As with all puppies they will need training. They will probably do best with children over 5 since they are still young and a bit mouthy.
The females are Hazel and Myka and the other 4 are males.
DOB 6-18-23
MEG

This little dynamo is looking for someone to keep up with her energy and enthusiasm for fun. She needs a home willing to work on her obedience skills, but Meg is a quick learner. We think Meg could be a possible shepherd mix, so we are unsure what size dog she will be when grown. This little gal is full of personality, and she will need a home with older children (14+), and a fenced yard. Smile for the camera Meg!

Poppy is a little senior chihuahua whose past is a bit of a mystery, but one thing we know is that he is a sweet and lovable dog. Poppy would be most comfortable in a quieter home with another small dog, and no children please. He is also good with cats.

PENSKE
Penske is a happy go lucky Golden Retriever/Hound mix. He loves to carry his blanket, and walks well on a leash.
He does however have a great deal of energy, and needs to have an owner willing to provide enrichment and adequate exercise.
He is young, so basic doggie obedience will need to be part of his life. He is a friendly guy, but due to his energy older children and a fenced yard is necessary.
He is a hound and likes to follow his nose!

ZOEY
This beautiful lady came to us from another shelter. We aren't sure of her breed history, but believe she is some sort of Shepherd/ Husky/Aussie mix.
There are lots of benefits to adopting a mature dog. She is a smart girl with a great deal of enthusiasm and energy. It is evident someone has spent some time with her working on basic obedience.
Zoey knows, "come" and "sit" and is good on the leash. She needs a fenced yard with older children due to her size and energy level.

ABBY
Hi, I'm Abby and they say I am very smart. I really want to find my forever home.I have been here awhile, I have an old injury and I would love to be in a comfortable environment away from these hard floors.
Here are my thoughts. Please, no other pets or children, I want to be your one and only, so we can have lots of fun together.
I prefer a fenced yard to play in. I love to learn, so you will need to continue my training and I promise to make you proud.
I am a bit of a mix of cattle dog and Aussie, so breed experience would be a benefit to understanding me. Please come meet me soon!
DOB 8/8/20 44 pounds
ARTHUR
Click image to see additional photo
Meet Arthur—though if you remember Slinky Dog from the Toy Story movies, you may feel like you already have! This short-legged, long-tailed hound mix wants to be your best friend, and at just six months, Arthur is only beginning to realize his greatness. He is walking on a leash, nearly housetrained, and turns into the sweetest lap dog when his puppy energy is exhausted. He loves people and gazes soulfully into your eyes while enjoying extended ear rubs. Arthur’s favorite pastime is wrestling with his big dog friend, and would love to have a dog playmate. He benefits from structure and routine (walk, eat, sleep, repeat!), and will grow into his best doggie self with patient leadership and consistent direction. Arthur is ready to start his amazing new life.
DOB 2/28/2023 25 Pounds (and growing)
MARY SUE

Mary Sue comes with lots of tricks up her "sleeve". She already knows how to sit, shake, lay down and rollover when asked. She also loves to play fetch.
Mary Sue is a friendly Boxer/Hund mix with beautiful brindle markings. She came from another shelter as a stray. Mary Sue is good with some other dogs and she has met older children. We would prefer a fence since she is part hound and they follow their noses.
DOB 12/13/2021 46 Pounds
ROBBY
If you are looking for a young, but laid back guy you may want to meet Robby. He is as sweet as can be, though he is shy of new situations. He will need a home with patience and time to let him acclimate to a new environment. Deep down inside he really wants nothing more than your love and attention. He would enjoy a fenced yard to run and play with his toys. Due to his shyness, no young children.
DOB 1/20/22 50 Pounds
FINLEY
This big, strong, handsome guy is ready to go! Finley needs a home that will be able to keep up with his energy, provide the exercise he needs, as well as continue his training. Finley is a unique looking dog, and judging by his beautiful eyes, possibly some husky lineage, and maybe a little lab.
He would be best as an only pet, and will definitely need a fenced yard. We do not know how he is with children yet; but due to his size and energy, older children only.
DOB 10/29/2016 57 pounds
OPAL
This sweet, playful gal would love to sing her way into your heart, which she will do if you ask her. Opal is a petit mixed breed (maybe some hound and terrier?) with lots of fun to share with a new home.
She knows some basic commands and is working on her leash skills. We have found that she does like to cuddle.
A fenced yard is preferred. Give this girl a few minutes to get to know you and you could have a friend for life.
DOB 12-9-21 35 pounds
RYKER
My name is Ryker and I am looking for an active family with a very secure yard. I am alert, and want to be involved with any activity around me. I am young and need to continue basic obedience training and doggie social skill lessons. With me being smart, I learn quickly. My breed mixture needs to be kept busy both physically and mentally. I am too much for young children.
DOB 8/23/19 30 pounds
CARLIE
IN FOSTER HOME
Click on image to see additional pictures
Carly would love for you to come meet and play with her! She is full of personality and LOVES to play a good game of tug a war or fetch. She entertains herself by throwing her toys in the air and going to find them. Her eyes are very soulful, she is quite a good looking girl! Carly is not a needy dog, she is content to play for a bit then just lay down wherever you are. She is a 3 three year old Hound with a personality of a Lab. She has done very well in her foster home, she is completely house broken and crate trained. She has learned to sit, go down and stay or wait fairly well in the home and we are starting to work on that outside in the fenced yard as well. She would be best in a yard with a 6 foot fence, but may consider a 4 foot fence if it is the right environment. She does well with other playful dogs, but would be great as an only dog as well. Due to her size, kids older than 10 would be best.
DOB 10/30/19 55 pounds
LEONARD
IN FOSTER HOME
Do you have room in your heart for a special-needs dog? We can tell from the way he bobs his head when stressed and circles and spins when he is excited that he has something unique going on in his little head. If we had to guess his breed, we think a terrier mix with maybe some Boston terrier, chihuahua or French bulldog in there. Leonard loves the company of other dogs and would make a great playmate for a dog who enjoys a good game of chase or wrestling. He really needs another dog around in order to be happy. Leonard has come a long way toward being potty trained, given ample opportunities to go outdoors. He also is using potty pads indoors. He has a beautiful shiny blue coat which makes him stand out from the pack. He likes to hang out with the people without having to sit on a lap or be cuddled too much. He seems to be mesmerized by things daily and is always cocking his head in the cutest way. His foster mom works from home and he LOVES that. If you have dreams of him being an obedience champion, you’ll have to let those go. He really is a very simple fella who just wants a good home with a playful dog or two and some people who will be around a lot and let him be who he is.
DOB 3/15/22 18 Pounds
HUDSON
This handsome, smart, young boxer mix is looking for a new home with a possible playmate to help him burn off some of his energy. He knows some basic commands, but is still working on obedience to curb some of his exuberance and enthusiasm towards the world around him. Although Hudson is a big love bug, he can be protective of his home and family. Hudson will require a 6 foot fence, and a home without small children due to his size.
DOB 11/21/2020 66 Pounds

HANK - No longer taking applicaitons
Hank is one handsome and loving pup. Our big Rottie boy Hank is already at 76 pounds and just turned 6 months. Not only is Hank big, but he also has a loving heart to match.
He absolutely adores people and would definitely climb in your lap if you let him. Hank is young, so training is a must as well as breed experience. He is very strong and full of exuberance, and with his size older children (12+) and a fence would be perfect for him. DOB 3/4/23
BAGEL
Click on image to see additional pictures
Our Bagel would love to have a new home where he could wake up each morning and share his breakfast time with a new family.
Bagel is a Beagle mix, and he will tell you all about it! He is a very sweet boy that is new to us so we don't know all his likes and dislikes.
He would probably do well with older children and definitely a fenced yard.
DOB 8-28-2015 31 pounds
OLIVER
My name is Oliver...... and I am full of exuberance and fun. I am a very smart beagle/bulldog mix of some sort.
I love to have a good time, but could use some social skills as well as basic obedience training. Once I am calm and ready to cuddle, my sweet side will come out!
A fenced yard is required and I should probably be an only pet.
DOB 2/11/20 46 pounds
AVA
I'm just a young girl with the most striking colored topaz eyes, and beautiful red coat. I prefer to be with women, because men can make me somewhat nervous. It may take me time to warm up to you, but once I do, I promise you will have a friend for life.
I am currently working with a trainer to help build my confidence, and let my lovely personality shine. As for my heritage, well I'm part Husky , so I'll need a secure fenced yard and due to my shyness no children please.
DOB 12/27/2020 46 pounds
SELENE
Click on image to see additional pictures
Meet Selene!
She tends to be a little shy at first, but when she knows you, she is both affectionate and loving. Selene is very sweet and would do better with older children.
She is working on some basic training that will need to continue in her new home. She will require a fenced yard and to be an only pet.
DOB 8/30/20 38 pounds
HENRY
Oh Henry! How sweet you are along with being very handsome. Friendly should be his middle name. He is probably quite a mix of breeds from Shepherd, Lab, Boxer and maybe some Terrier. Henry has a lot of energy, and should have a fenced yard since his prior home had a fence. He loves to run and play, and appears to be a quick learner.
He has been good with some of the dogs he meets, but since he has just arrived at Pet Refuge we are still getting to know him. More to come! DOB 9-17-22 56 pounds
JO
Click on image to see additional pictures
Jo came to us from another shelter. It is always sad when an older dog comes to us, because they have to adjust to living in a kennel situation and it is terribly confusing for them.
Even though she is older she has a lot of energy, and is extremely strong. We have found she walks much better on a gentle leader than a traditional leash. She needs someone to have German Shepherd breed experience and allow her time to open up to you and show you her sweet nature. She is new to us, so there are things still unknown as far as her likes and dislikes towards other animals and children. She is currently healing from a skin infection, so her haircut is a bit different, but will grow back and she will be even more beautiful than before.
DOB 10-8-14 93 pounds
REMI
Click on image to see additional pictures
Remi loves to play and play, and play. Her favorite activity is chasing the ball and yes she will return the ball for another throw.
She is a mixed breed of a Lab and the rest is a mystery. Remi is looking for an active family, or single person that will provide fun adventures and plenty of walks to provide opportunities for Remi to release her energy and enthusiasm.
Probably older children would be a better match, and since she is new to us we haven't introduced her to other animals. A fenced yard would allow her to play fetch to her heart's content.
DOB 8-16-17 50pounds
JACQUES & YVETTE
IN FOSTER HOME
If you have a fenced yard, plenty of patience and love, you may like to welcome these two special friends into your home.
Jacques is a 4 year old miniature poodle who is extremely dependent on Yvette, a female 3 year old miniature poodle.
Both dogs need a home that is quiet, and they must go together.
They are both a beautiful apricot color, and are sweet as they can be. It is obvious they have not had much experience with the world around them, so they will require someone who is willing to take their time to gain their trust.
They are not housebroken, but working on it.
They would not be a good match with children, or apartment living.
Jacques weighs 5 1/2 pounds and Yvette is 9 1/2 pounds
