See all the Dogs! 
Maggie is a 2 1/2 year old basset hound. She is spayed and up to date on her shots. Maggie has been moved from home to home quite a bit in her young life and as such she is a bit timid when meeting new people and dogs. We would not recommend Maggie for a home with very young children. Maggie prefers women over men and her personality is best described as moody and pouty. She will test the boundarys and rules. Maggie will need a stable routine and home life.&nb...read more about Maggie

Gus has found himself needing a new forever home for the new year. Gus is in a home with other dogs but is having trouble getting along with a couple of them. Put it down to a personality clash. Gus is currently in his home due to our lack of foster homes. If you are interested in Gus, please fill out an adoption application and we will put you in touch with the current family. Gus is good with kids and most dogs but would probably be best being an only dog.
