UPDATE: Gemini is heartworm negative! She is now ready to be spayed. She is still looking for a forever home.
Gemini has suffered years of neglect. Then, she was turned into the shelter for euthanasia. We went to get her and found a skinny, scared girl with parasites and heartworms. She even had adult demodex, which is only gotten from malnutrition and living in filth. When you would try to touch Gemini anywhere near the head or ear, she would let out a low growl, and if you didn't stop, she would raise her lips at you. Her reaction was clearly a fear of being hurt.
Now that we have had Gemini a bit and she has seen what it is to live with love and a loving touch, she has just blossomed! People who saw her when she first arrived cannot even believe she is the same dog!! She is so sweet and loving. She loves having her ears rubbed and will come and sit in front of you and give you her paw so you will scratch her chest! She is a true love! Gemini has filled out, and is healthy except for her heartworms. She is low positive and is just on preventive. She is getting healthy enough to be spayed and is ready for adoption. She will make a wonderful addition to any home looking for some extra love and sweetness. Please come take a look at her today!

Daisy came to rescue from North Carolina. She had transferred owners, and had been living outside in a 12 x 12 kennel. She came through another rescue and is heartworm positive. When she arrived here, she had absolutely no social skills or manners, and was desperately in need of attention - so much so, that she would not let you walk across a room without her blocking your way, so you had to talk to her and pet her! Or she would come and sit in your lap! She was not housetrained, and had no leash skills. She did not know that she wasn't supposed to get on the counters, or steal food, or sit or stay somewhere when told to. She is learning these skills, and is becoming a much calmer, loving dog! She is crate trained, and well on the way to housetrained - you just have to remember to make sure she goes outside. Daisy Mae is enjoying the "luxuries" of being a house dog. She loves dog beds, and the human bed! :)
Daisy Mae needs a quiet home where she can have her heartworm treatment, and eventually a forever home of her own. Please consider helping Daisy. She will repay you with unconditional love and sweetness.

Harvey is your typical Dane puppy. He loves to play, loves to run, and loves to go in the water. His ideal adoptive home would have some kind of water nearby and another big dog for him to play with. He is mostly deaf and vision impaired. We are trying to get an appointment with the ophthalmologist to determine what treatment and/or maintenance his eyes will need. Harvey is sometimes shy around people he doesn't know, but when he is comfortable he is a huge love! He sits next to you on the couch and sleeps on top of you!

Cain was a very much loved dog, whose owner was exposed to nerve gas in Iraq and can no longer take care of him. Cain is the sweetest, most wonderful dog we have seen in rescue in a long, long time! He has been crated a lot, due to the owner's inability to handle him, and is now learning to love his freedom in his new foster home. He is doing GREAT with the other Dane, well with the shih tzu and has learned about how cats hiss and swat! :) He is a great boy, who loves everything! His people, his animal buddies, but most of all CHILDREN!
