This absolutely precious senior guy is HAN, a 13 year old male husky mix that was brought to H.O.P.E. with 9 others from a neglect case. They were all outdoor dogs but we are looking for homes that will keep them as indoor pets like they so very much deserve. HAN is a very gentle, loving boy but he can also be a bit dramatic (aka husky talking) once he has to go back into his kennel. We’re sure it’s just because he’s not used to it but we can also tell he is loving all the food, treats, warm bed and attention he’s been getting. The vet says he seems overall pretty healthy for his age, he does have some issues with his hips but nothing uncommon for a 13 year old dog. With that being said, he still has plenty of pep in his step and loves to go for walks and romp around in the snow! A home that will just love him, play with him and let him take his afternoon naps is what HAN is looking for.

This big guy is CLYDE, about a 9 year old male plott hound that was brought to HOPE and his owner never came for him. CLYDE is your typical hound, very sweet but also enjoys just wandering around, smelling everything and doing his own thing. He would thrive in a home that has lots of space for him to roam outside (while being monitored of course so he doesn’t run off). From what we do know about him, he was an outdoor dog but we at HOPE want animals that are adopted out to be indoor animals. This guy deserves a big comfy couch (or bed) to snooze on, to get all of the love and food he so deserves. So far, he seems fine with most of the dogs here but proper introductions with any other dogs in the home would be necessary. We have seen that he does seem to resource guard special treats, like a peanut butter lick mat, so making sure he is fed separately from other animals/kids is important. He is totally okay with us feeding him and setting down his bowl but it’s best not to disturb him while he is eating or enjoying other special treats. Knowing a little bit about his background, we don’t blame the poor fella for wanting to protect his food. CLYDE just needs a loving, forever home!

This handsome guy is NED, a 6 year old male dog that was brought in as a stray and never claimed. Since NED did come in as a stray, we are not positive of his age but we guess that he is around 6 or 7. We also do not know anything about his past, if he’s lived with other dogs, cats, or children so we still need to do proper introductions with each. So far, he seems fine around the other dogs and hasn’t shown us any signs that he would NOT do well. He was pretty nervous when he came in but he is quickly warming up to his caretakers and showing his adorable personality more and more every day. He’s a goofy boy and definitely talkative like a husky. We believe he may have some kind of shepherd mixed in as well as maybe Australian Shepherd or another breed that would explain the hints of merle in his coat. NED needs a good loving and PERMANENT home, if you think your home might be a good fit, please stop in to meet him.

This beautiful canine is REBA, a 4 year old female Shepherd mix that was brought into the shelter so she could find a forever home that was a better fit for her. REBA is a sweet and friendly dog who does well with routine and who does best when she understands what is expected of her. She is incredibly smart and eager to please her people. She would make a fantastic companion dog as she forms a very strong bond with you once she is comfortable. REBA can be a bit protective with her humans so it would be best for her to have a home without young children or an adult only home as she does well with a quiet home. She is dog selective but has done well with one of our calmer, neutral male dogs so it is possible she could live in a home with another male dog but no females. Please stop by to meet this sweetheart and see if REBA might be a good fit for your home.

This sweet canine is SKITTLES, a 2.5 year old female Staffie mix that was found as a stray and never reclaimed. Because SKITTLES came in without an owner, not much is known about her, but we do know that it was not easy to catch SKITTLES and that she was on her own for several weeks before being brought to the shelter. SKITTLES did come in already spayed so we do know that she did have an owner at some point. She is a high energy breed and even though she is small, she sure is mighty. We believe she is more of a Staffordshire Bull Terrier mix as opposed to a American Bully mix. They tend to have a lot more drive. With that being said, SKITTLES would do best in an only pet home, as she is reactive to other dogs and thinks cats are something to go after. She should also go to a home without small children because of her energy level and the fact that she can be a bit mouthy when she plays. Her dog reactiveness and energy can easily be managed as long as the right person takes her home. She is an absolute doll and a really fun, goofy dog, she just needs an outlet and the proper stimulation for her go go go personality.
