Raider is a four-year-old male Golden Retriever: Hello there, I'm Raider! I've got a heart full of sweetness and a mind as sharp as a tack. I love playing games, especially ones that challenge me. I'm always eager to learn new tricks and show off my smarts. I'm friendly too, always ready to make new friends. I love to be around people, sharing in their joy and bringing them comfort. Life is a wonderful game for me, and I'm just looking for the perfect teammate to share it with.

Gypsy is a two-year-old female Husky/German Shepherd mix: Hello, I'm Gypsy. I'm a lively spirit who loves to play fetch and tug-of-war. I can be quite the cuddle bug, too, curling up next to you while you read or watch TV. My sweetness is irresistible; I'm known to give the gentlest kisses and nuzzles. I've been told I have a heart full of love to give, and I'm ready to share it with a forever family..

If your family is ready to add a member, we currently have many adoptable animals in our shelter looking for a new place to call home. Learn more by visiting our Petfinder page or calling (214) 862-4525.
