He’ll need plenty of playtime, training, and outdoor adventures to keep that his body and brain busy! Once he’s gotten his workout in, Rico loves to lean his whole body against you to get all the pets.

Come see if this bouncy goofball is the guy for you! 💜

Meet Rico, an athlete with a heart of gold and today's #AdoptAShelterDogMonth dog! This boy is strong, smart, and full of energy - it's kind of like having our very own star linebacker. This guy is built to move, and he’s happiest when he’s got a job or something fun to do.

if you adopt this little guy, you can finally say you know the Muffin Man. you can also say you emptied the Muffin Man's litter box and leave all of your loves ones very confused

Every time a dog gets adopted from NHS, it opens up space for another pup in need. Can't adopt but want to help? Consider fostering, volunteering, taking a dog on an outing, or simply just spreading the word!

We had even more dogs come in this weekend and are now over 100% capacity. We are quite literally out of room. Starting today, all dogs 6 months and older now have adoption fees of $20 in celebration of Dog-tober, aka #AdoptAShelterDogMonth!

Breeze would do best in a home without any young kiddos, as they tend to make her a bit nervous. If you've got a big yard and a tennis ball or two, Breeze might just be the one for you!

Easy, breezy, beautiful - Breeze is our dog of the day for #AdoptAShelterDogMonth!

Breeze is a young, happy girl with lots of spunk. She's a pro at fetch and she loves belly rubs and giving lots of snuggles (even though she's 70lbs, she's determined to sit in your lap!)

We're running out of available kennels! To help clear some space and in celebration of #AdoptAShelterDogMonth, we're having an adoption special! 💜

From Thursday through Sunday, all adult dogs 25lbs+ will be 'Pick your Price', which means YOU get to decide the adoption fee.

Meeting new people can be scary for Chase at first, but he warms up quickly and has made lots of friends here at the shelter. His buddies say he is a great, well-mannered boy who loves his walks, and loves affection even more.

Come see if Chase is the one for you💜

Meet today's featured dog for #AdoptAShelterDogMonth, Chase!

Chase is quite a gentleman. He's a well rounded guy who loves to relax and chill, but he can also get playful - especially if there are toys involved (his name is Chase for a reason!)

Elvira isn't a morning person. or an afternoon person. she's not an evening person either. she's actually not a person at all. she's a cat. hope this clears things up

Snow has lots of energy and loves to zoom around. She frequents our playgroups and is large and in charge! When it's time to chill, this girl is happy to snuggle up for a movie or settle down with a kong. Come see if she's the one for you!

Snow is our featured dog today for #AdoptAShelterDogMonth! She's a social butterfly who loves to meet new people and LOVES to play. She may be considered a senior dog, but good luck convincing her of that!

Stuart can be a little pushy with other dogs, but he co-exists well in playgroup. His play style is on the rough-and-tumble side. No matter who you are, Stuart is ready to be your best friend. Come see if he's the right fit for you! bit.ly/3IITCwD

Stuart is our dog of the day for #AdoptAShelterDogMonth!

This handsome guy's favorite words are 'play' and 'snuggle'. In fact, those are basically his only two settings. Stuart loves making friends, will sit for treats and he's got some of the best zoomies we've ever seen!
