Meet Ace - The Deaf-initely Awesome Adventure King!

I’m two years old and I'm thought to be an Australian Cattle Dog and Pit Bull Terrier mix, weighing in at 46 lbs. of pure love, zoomies, and main-character energy. I’m a super sweet guy who lives for affection. If you’ve got hands, I’m ready for pets.

Now let’s address the elephant in the room...I’m deaf. But honestly, that just makes me cooler. No scary thunderstorms, no loud noises, no drama. Just vibes. I’m an active boy through and through. Adventures, walks, exploring, I’m all in. If you’re looking for a dog who’s down to get out and do things, I’m your guy.

When it comes to other dogs, I’m a friendly dude, but first impressions matter. I do best with dogs who are social and easygoing when we meet. If a dog comes in too reactive or intense, I don’t really know what to do with that energy, especially since I can’t hear them. But give me a fun, playful friend and I’m all in.

Cats are still a mystery to me. I’ve never met one, so slow and proper introductions would be the way to go. Keeping things calm and respectful will set everyone up for success.

I’d do best in a home without kids as I'm working on meeting new people and I thrive in a calm and predictable environment. That means no sneaking up on me and giving me space when I need it. In return, I’ll give you all the love, loyalty, and goofy moments you could ever want.

I'm looking for a home that understands me and is ready for an active, loving companion. Someone who is patient, consistent, and excited to build a strong bond with me. As I adjust to a new home, I can become a little overstimulated on leash, so I'll benefit from continued training and a home with a securely fenced backyard where I can safely settle in and build confidence. With guidance, routine, and positive reinforcement, I'll continue making great progress. I may not hear your voice, but I'll see you, trust you, and love you with everything I've got!

My adoption fee is $295 and I'm neutered, fully vaccinated and microchipped!

Alfalfa is the kind of puppy who makes everyone smile! This handsome 9-week-old Australian Shepherd, Jack Russell Terrier, and Beagle mix is full of personality, affection, and all the puppy charm you could ask for. He's ready to find a family to call his very own.

Before Alfalfa was born, his mom, Clover, made an incredible journey from Mississippi to The Asher House. Not long after she arrived, we discovered she was pregnant! Clover welcomed Alfalfa and his littermates here in our care, giving them a safe, loving place to grow and thrive from the very beginning.

Alfalfa is an outgoing, friendly little guy who loves spending time with people and making new friends.

Whether he's chasing after a ball, wrestling with his siblings, or settling in for a cuddle after playtime, Alfalfa is always ready to be part of the fun.

When fully grown, Alfalfa is expected to be a medium-sized dog with a heart as big as his personality. He's eager to learn, loves being around his people, and has all the makings of a loyal best friend. If you're looking for a companion who will fill your days with laughter, love, and unforgettable memories, Alfalfa can't wait to meet you.

Alfalfa's adoption fee is $495 and he's neutered, vaccinated and microchipped.

Sweet, playful, and full of puppy love, Aloe is ready to find the forever family she's been waiting for! This adorable 9-week-old Australian Shepherd, Jack Russell Terrier, and Beagle mix has a gentle spirit and a personality that's impossible not to love.

Aloe's story began with her amazing mom, Clover, who made the trip to The Asher House all the way from Mississippi. Shortly after arriving, we learned Clover was expecting puppies!

Meet Angel! 🤍

Angel is an adorable Mini Long-Haired Australian Shepherd who is around 8 years old and 27 lbs., and she has the sweetest, most gentle soul. She’s potty trained, kennel trained, and absolutely loves being with her people—although she’d much rather be snuggled up next to you than spending time in her kennel.

Angel is looking for a calm, quiet home where she can truly relax and feel safe. She does have some anxiety, so she’ll need a family that understands she’ll need a little time to decompress and adjust. The beautiful thing about Angel is that once she trusts you, she’ll never want to leave your side.

She enjoys going on adventures with her person, curling up for cuddles, and soaking up all the love she can get. One of her cutest little habits is gently pawing at you when she wants more pets—it’s impossible not to smile when she does it.

Angel gets along well with other dogs, but she’d be happiest with calm, laid-back companions who match her peaceful nature. Since arriving at The Asher House, she’s slowly blossomed, becoming more comfortable with our staff and the pack each day. Watching her confidence grow has been so rewarding, and we know she’ll continue to thrive in the right home.

Angel previously lived with cats so should do well with proper introductions to any feline siblings. She would also do well in a home with kids over the age of 8 who appreciate her need for space and patience.

Angel’s story is a bittersweet one. She came to us after her beloved owner passed away. Her family loved her enough to make the incredibly difficult decision to find her the very best forever home, and we promised them we would do everything we could to make that happen.

As part of Angel’s adoption, we ask that her future family be willing to stay in touch with her previous owner’s family by sharing occasional photos and videos. It means the world to them to see Angel happy, loved, and living her best life.

If you’re looking for a loyal companion who will love you with her whole heart, cuddle by your side, and appreciate every ounce of patience and kindness you give her, apply to meet Angel today. She is ready to spend her golden years exactly where she belongs—with a family to love.

Angel's adoption fee is $295 and she's spayed, vaccinated and microchipped.

Meet Beacon ❤️

Some dogs seem to fit effortlessly into every situation, and Beacon is one of them.

At just 19 pounds and 1 years old, Beacon is thought to be a Corgi/Rat Terrier Mix and is the perfect little sidekick. He’s friendly, affectionate, and always happy to be wherever his people are. Whether you’re heading out on an adventure, visiting friends, or spending a quiet evening at home, Beacon is simply happy to be by your side.

Beacon absolutely loves people and gets along beautifully with every dog he meets. He’s social without being overwhelming, playful without being rowdy, and has an easygoing personality that makes him a wonderful companion. He also did great during his cat introduction, showing calm, respectful manners. Beacon would also do well in a home with children as he's playful and sweet with everyone he meets.

Don’t let his small size fool you—Beacon has a huge heart. He loves to snuggle just as much as he enjoys exploring, making him the perfect balance of adventure buddy and couch companion. He settles in easily, adapts well to new situations, and has the kind of temperament that makes everyone fall in love with him.

Beacon is also developing excellent habits around the house. He keeps his sleeping area clean overnight and has been a very tidy houseguest, so we expect him to transition smoothly into a home with a consistent routine and positive reinforcement.

If you’re looking for a loyal companion who is friendly, adaptable, affectionate, and ready to be part of every chapter of your life, Beacon may be the perfect match. Sometimes the very best things really do come in small packages.

Meet Beam ❤️

Some puppies burst into every room they enter. Beam prefers to take a moment, look around, and then quietly steal your heart.

At just 4 months old and 20 pounds, Beam is thought to be a border collie mix and she is a gentle, affectionate puppy with a sweet, thoughtful nature. She loves her people and enjoys being close once she feels comfortable. While she may take a minute to get to know someone new, it doesn’t take long before her soft, loving personality begins to shine.

Beam was found as a stray in rural Mississippi and is now getting the chance every puppy deserves—a fresh start and a family to call her own.

She absolutely loves other dogs and enjoys having canine companions to play and relax with. She also did wonderfully during her cat introduction, showing calm, respectful manners. Beam has a naturally gentle spirit that makes her a joy to have around both people and other animals. Beam has typical puppy energy and cuddles to give and would do well in a home with children.

One of Beam’s favorite things is snuggling. After a little playtime, she’s more than happy to curl up beside you for cuddles and enjoy a quiet afternoon together. She has a beautiful balance of playful puppy energy and a calm, affectionate personality.

One of the most special things about Beam is the quiet way she connects with people. She doesn’t feel the need to be the center of attention. Instead, she watches, learns, and then chooses to lean in with complete trust. Watching her confidence grow is incredibly rewarding, and every day she becomes a little more adventurous while never losing the sweet, gentle nature that makes her so easy to love.

Beam is also developing wonderful habits for such a young puppy. She keeps her sleeping area remarkably clean overnight and is already showing all the signs that house training will come naturally with a consistent routine and positive reinforcement.

If you’re looking for a kindhearted puppy who will reward your patience with unwavering love, endless cuddles, and a lifetime of companionship, Beam may be the perfect addition to your family.

Beam's adoption fee is $495 and she's spayed, vaccinated and microchipped.

Meet Bear

Some dogs are naturally easygoing with everyone they meet. Bear is not that dog—and that’s exactly what makes him so special.

Bear is a 2-year-old American Staffordshire Terrier, weighing about 55 lbs. of loyalty, sensitivity, and deep devotion to his person. He forms strong, meaningful bonds and is incredibly protective of the people he trusts.

Because of this, Bear is looking for a very specific kind of home. He would do best with a single woman or a couple in a calm, low-traffic environment where he doesn’t have to constantly meet new people. New faces can be overwhelming for him, and he needs about five days to truly settle in and build trust. But once he does, his loyalty runs deep—and it’s something really special.

Bear’s story has shaped who he is. He previously lived on the streets and experienced instability, which means he approaches the world with caution. He may be wary at first, but he is not without heart—he just needs someone who understands that trust is earned over time, not given immediately.

With other dogs, Bear is actually very respectful and submissive. He’s dog-friendly and does well with calm, balanced companions, though large or chaotic pack environments can be overwhelming for him. He thrives best in a more structured and predictable setting.

Bear is housebroken and does well with routine. He would do best in a home without children or cats, where his boundaries are understood and respected.

What Bear needs most is someone patient, experienced, and willing to meet him where he is. Someone who sees past his initial hesitation and is willing to give him the time and space he needs to feel safe. In return, you’ll gain a deeply loyal, protective companion who will be by your side through everything.

Bear isn’t for everyone—but for the right person, he’s everything.

His adoption fee is $295 and he is neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped.

Meet Bebe & Maya ❤️

These sweet girls are the bonded pair you never knew you needed.

Bebe is a 3-year-old, 21 lb. purebred French Bulldog, and Maya is a 7½-year-old, 28 lb. French Bulldog/Boston Terrier mix. Together, they are two of the sweetest, funniest, and cuddliest little dogs you’ll ever meet. They absolutely adore people, but what makes them even more special is the incredible bond they share with each other.

These girls are looking for a home where they can be the only dogs. They do well with other dogs out in the world, but at home they much prefer having their humans—and each other—all to themselves. They would do wonderfully in a home with or without children, as long as they’re surrounded by love, attention, and plenty of cuddles. As Bebe and Maya want all of your love and attention we do not recommend them for a home with cats.

Bebe and Maya are healthy, happy, and ready to start their next chapter together. They are mostly house-trained but may occasionally have an accident if they have to wait too long. With a consistent routine, patience, and love, they’ll continue to thrive.

If you’re looking for twice the snuggles, twice the laughs, and twice the love, Bebe and Maya are ready to fill your home with joy.

The adoption fee for the two of them is $495 and they are spayed, vaccinated and microchipped.

Apply to meet Bebe and Maya today—the sweetest bonded pair in the pack!

Biscuit is an 8 year old English Bulldog / American Bully mix with the biggest heart and the sweetest soul you could ever hope to meet. If you’re looking for a best friend whose love runs deep and constant, Biscuit is your girl.

This sweet senior lives for her people. Her favorite things? Cuddling on the couch, soaking up belly rubs, and simply being by your side. Whether you’re watching your favorite shows or enjoying a quiet night in, Biscuit will be right there, snuggled up and content. And don’t let her age fool you—she still has a little puppy spark and enjoys leisurely walks and adventures, too.

Biscuit would thrive as the center of attention in her home. She can be selective with other dogs, but she has done well with some and is open to proper introductions if you already have a pup. That said, if you’re looking for a one-and-only companion, Biscuit will happily fill that role and give you her whole heart.

She loves everyone she meets and will do wonderfully with a family who wants a gentle, affectionate, and loyal companion—including families with kids.

Biscuit is healthy and feeling great. She does have a cherry eye that does not cause her pain or discomfort, and The Asher House will cover the cost of her surgery—it’s a simple procedure.

Biscuit is truly something special. She’s the kind of dog who will change your life with her love.

If your heart is calling you toward her, don’t wait—Apply to meet Biscuit today.
They truly don’t come any sweeter.

Her adoption fee is $295 and she is spayed, vaccinated and microchipped.

Hi I'm Bonnie!

You’ve heard of Bonnie and Clyde, but let me introduce myself as Bonnie, the sweet, fluffy girl who is ready to leave my adventures behind and find my forever home!

I’m a 3 year old, 75 lb. Great Pyrenees girl who may be a little shy when we first meet, but don’t let that fool you. I just like to take my time getting to know new people and making sure everything feels safe. Once I realize you’re my friend, I warm up quickly and my sweet personality starts to shine.

Unlike the famous Bonnie and Clyde, my goal isn’t to be on the run. I’m looking for a life filled with cozy days, fun adventures, and a family who understands that the best relationships are built with patience and trust. I love exploring the world around me, especially when there are plenty of new smells to investigate. My nose likes to gather all the important details, so expect our walks to include lots of sniff breaks.

I have experience living with alpacas and enjoy having animal friends around. I do have a history of chasing poultry, so my future family should understand my guardian instincts and make sure I have appropriate boundaries around smaller animals. I do well with other dogs, but I prefer calm and respectful canine companions who match my more relaxed personality. We don’t know my history with cats yet.

I’m looking for a family who will give me the time and space I need while I adjust to my new home. Kids over the age of 6 would be the best fit for me since I would appreciate children who understand how to respect my space while I build confidence.

My ideal home will also have secure fencing that is over 6 feet tall. I may look like a big fluffy teddy bear, but I’m also a clever Great Pyrenees who has figured out that climbing and jumping can be part of an adventure!

If you’re looking for a sweet, gentle girl who may start off a little shy but has so much love to give once she trusts you, I think we could have the perfect happily ever after. Forget the famous Bonnie and Clyde story, I’m ready to write my own chapter with my forever family!

My adoption fee is $295 and I'm spayed, vaccinated and microchipped.

Howdy, partner. The name’s Boone, and yes, I am as adventurous as my name suggests.

I’m a 3 year old, 80 lb Catahoula Leopard Dog mix with a heart full of zoomies, a nose built for adventure, and enough personality to keep life interesting every single day. If there’s an adventure happening nearby, I would like to be involved immediately.

Don’t let my explorer status fool you because I’m also affectionate. I absolutely love my people. Getting pets, leaning dramatically into your legs for attention, and being told I’m handsome are some of my favorite hobbies.

After a day of important adventuring business, I’m more than happy to hang out with my humans and soak up all the love I can get.

I’m an active boy who would thrive with a family that enjoys getting out and doing things with me. I’ve got that classic Catahoula energy where life is simply more exciting when you’re moving. Honestly, if I could create my dream schedule, it would probably include adventures during the day and cuddle sessions at night.

The good news? I also do great with other dogs. Having dog friends is pretty awesome because we can run around together, exchange sniffing information, and discuss extremely important neighborhood business.

I would do best with kids over the age of 7 who understand that even goofy adventure boys like me sometimes need a little space to relax and decompress. I’m a very sweet dog, but I appreciate people who respect my boundaries and understand dog body language.

Basically, if you’ve been looking for a hilarious, affectionate, adventure-loving sidekick who will make every day feel a little more fun, I might just be your guy. I’ll bring the personality, the zoomies, and the unconditional love, you just bring the leash and maybe a few snacks!

My adoption fee is $295 and I'm neutered, vaccinated and microchipped.

My name is Bowie. Yes, that Bowie. No, I don't have a band… yet. What I do have is a face that belongs on magazine covers, a personality larger than my little Frenchie body, and enough charm to convince you that your spot on the couch was actually reserved for me all along.

I'm a 1 year old, 25 lb. French Bulldog with a passion for two things: adventure and attention. If you're heading somewhere fun, I would like to be included. Hiking, walking, exploring, road trips, coffee runs, trips to the mailbox that somehow turn into neighborhood expeditions, I'm your guy. Life is too short to stay home when there are things to see and smells to investigate.

When the adventure is over, I'm ready to collect my payment in cuddles. I absolutely love people and enjoy being close to my family. If you're looking for a dog who wants to be involved in your daily activities, I have already submitted my application and accepted the position.

While I do ok with many dogs I prefer to have my humans all to myself, including kids over the age of 5 who understand that sometimes a handsome Frenchie needs a little personal space. Respect my boundaries and I'll happily be your best friend. I'm a goofy, lovable cuddlebug so I want my people to give all of their love and devotion all to me!

I've had a rough start in life which led to me having ruptured eardrums and itchy skin. I am currently undergoing treatment and getting daily eardrops for the next several weeks and I may need surgery in the future but I don't let that slow me down as I love to play and cuddle and join you on your adventures!

If you're ready to add a little excitement, a lot of laughter, and one ridiculously handsome Frenchie to your life, come meet me. I have a feeling this could be the start of something legendary!

My adoption fee is $295 and I'm neutered, vaccinated and microchipped.

Hi, I’m Breezy!

An almost 5-year old German Shepherd, weighing 60 lbs. of intelligence, loyalty, and quiet confidence. I’m the kind of dog who pays attention to everything, reads situations well, and responds best when there is clear communication and mutual understanding.

With my people, I am deeply affectionate and loyal. I form strong bonds and truly enjoy being close to those I trust. Once you are part of my circle, you will have a companion who is attentive, devoted, and always tuned in to you.

With new people, I can be a bit more reserved. I take my time getting comfortable and prefer not to be approached too quickly. I am currently working on this with continued training and improving steadily. I do best with someone who understands how to advocate for me and can step in when I need space. When I am given the time and respect to warm up, I settle in well.

I am highly intelligent and very responsive. I have excellent recall and take direction well, especially when expectations are clear and consistent. I enjoy working, learning, and having structure in my day. With other dogs, I am well-balanced. I can be playful and social, but I also know how to regulate myself and settle when needed. I appreciate dogs who are respectful and can match my energy appropriately.

I love my toys and enjoy a good game of fetch. It is one of my favorite ways to stay active and engaged, and I can happily play while still maintaining control and focus.

Cats are not a good match for me.

I would do best in an adult-only home where my boundaries are understood and respected. I thrive in an environment where there is calm leadership, clear communication, and consistency.

I am not just an active dog, I am a thinking dog. I am looking for someone who appreciates that, someone who values connection, structure, and trust. In return, I will give you unwavering loyalty, intelligence, and a partnership that is truly special!

My adoption fee is $295 and I'm spayed, vaccinated and microchipped.

Hey there, I’m Bruce. Yes, that's Bruce. Strong name, handsome face, athlete-level zoomies, it all checks out.

I’m a 3 year old, 80 lb. Catahoula Leopard Dog mix looking for a family that’s ready for adventure, laughter, and a little bit of lovable chaos.

I’m the kind of dog who wakes up every day ready to seize the moment. Hiking, long walks, exploring every single smell on planet Earth like I’m solving an important mystery, that’s basically my full-time job. I’m an active guy who loves being out and about with my people.

Now, while I may look rugged and adventurous, I’m actually a giant softie underneath all this good looks energy. I love affection from my humans. Pets are wonderful. Belly rubs are incredible. Being dramatically told I’m the most handsome boy ever created is necessary for my emotional wellbeing, honestly.

I also do great with most other dogs. Having dog friends is awesome because we can play together, run around, and bark at absolutely nothing as a team. As for cats, I’ve never really shared my superhero headquarters with them before. I met several here at the sanctuary and I didn't pay much attention to them so slow, supervised introductions will be best for me.

Now listen, every hero has their training arc, okay. I’m still learning some manners, so I’ll need a family committed to continuing my positive reinforcement training. I’m a smart boy and eager to learn, but sometimes my enthusiasm for life gets a little bigger than my brain for a moment.

Because of that, I’d do best with kids over the age of 9 who understand dog boundaries and can give me space when I need to decompress. I’m a sweet boy, but I’ll thrive most with a family that understands structure, consistency, and helping me continue building confidence and good decision-making skills.

At the end of the day, I’m basically the perfect mix of adventurous hiking buddy, goofy comedian, affectionate cuddle bug, and slightly chaotic wilderness explorer. If you’ve been searching for a loyal sidekick with spots, personality, and enough love to fill an entire Batcave, I’m your guy!

My adoption fee is $295 and I'm neutered, vaccinated and microchipped.

Meet Bunny 🐾

Bunny is a 1.5-year-old Cane Corso/Mastiff mix who may have some extra challenges, but what stands out most about her is her incredibly sweet and loving heart. At 63 pounds, she’s on the smaller side for her breed and absolutely full of affection.

Bunny is a special needs dog with Wobbler syndrome, which affects her mobility—she has a wobbly gait and can sometimes lose her balance. She is on daily medication to help manage her condition and keep her comfortable. In March 2026, she underwent surgery to stabilize her knees, and her recovery has been going incredibly well.

Because of her condition, Bunny will need ongoing care, including periodic neurologist visits. The Asher House is committed to her and is open to sponsoring her medical care—we truly just want to see this special girl in a loving home where she can thrive.

Despite everything she’s been through, Bunny remains such a happy, gentle soul. She’s done well in playgroups and enjoys the company of other dogs, though she doesn’t spend much time in the large pack these days. She can be a little mouthy at times, but it’s not aggressive—just part of her playful, expressive personality. Because of this she would do best in a home with kids over the age of 10 and a home without cats.

Bunny would do best in a patient, understanding home that can support her needs and appreciate her for exactly who she is. She doesn’t let her challenges define her—and neither should you. She’s resilient, loving, and so deserving of a family to call her own.

If you have a soft spot for dogs who need a little extra love, Bunny will give it right back tenfold.

Her adoption Fee is $295 and she is spayed, vaccinated, and microchipped.

Howdy there, I’m Chuckles. I’m a 4 year old, 80 lb. Mastiff mix with a big heart, a bigger frame, and a personality that just needs a minute to shine. I can be a little nervous when I first meet new people or find myself in new situations. I like to take things in slowly at first, make sure everything feels safe, and confirm you are not secretly a broom or a suspicious moving object.

Once I realize you are kind and safe, I come out of my shell pretty quickly, especially if you have treats. Snacks are basically my love language. A few good treats and suddenly I am your best friend, emotional support giant, and personal shadow all rolled into one.

I am a very sweet boy who loves affection from my people. I enjoy leaning in for pets, hanging out close by, and being part of whatever is going on. I may be large, but I have a very soft heart and I am happiest when I am near my humans. I also enjoy going on walks and adventures, taking in the world at a steady, thoughtful pace while I sniff everything that might possibly be important.

I do well with other dogs and enjoy their company. As for cats, I have lived with a cat before and did well. I would do best with kids over the age of 6 who understand that I may need a little space when I am first adjusting or feeling unsure.

Once I settle in, I am affectionate, goofy, and deeply loyal, but I appreciate people who let me warm up at my own pace. So if all of this sounds amazing to you, please come and meet me!

My adoption fee is $295 and I'm neutered, vaccinated and microchipped.

Meet Clover! 🤍

Clover is a beautiful 3-year-old, 28 lb. Wirehaired Terrier/Jack Russell Terrier mix with the sweetest heart. She recently raised six wonderful puppies, and she was an incredible mom every step of the way. Now that her puppies are growing up, it’s finally Clover’s turn to be loved and spoiled.

Clover is a gentle, affectionate soul who would thrive in a quiet, loving home. She enjoys the simple things in life—long walks, rolling and playing in the grass, digging in the yard, cuddling with her favorite people, and soaking up all the love she can get. She’s the kind of dog who’s happiest just being by your side.

She gets along well with big, medium, and small dogs, but she would do best in a lower-energy home where she can relax while still enjoying plenty of mental and physical enrichment. Daily walks, fun activities, and lots of affection will help this sweet girl truly flourish.

Clover would do best in a home with children 7 years and older and no cats.

Clover is heartworm positive and is scheduled to begin her heartworm treatment in the Salem area in mid-August. She has several veterinary appointments already scheduled as part of her treatment plan, which will be sponsored by The Asher House. Heartworm disease is treatable, but it requires a series of veterinarian-administered injections followed by strict exercise restriction to ensure a safe recovery. Her future family will need to be committed to keeping Clover calm with plenty of crate rest and quiet relaxation until she completes her treatment at the end of September. This means no running, rough play, or strenuous activity during her recovery so she can heal safely and successfully.

Her journey to The Asher House began as a stray in Mississippi, and despite everything she’s been through, she has remained incredibly loving, trusting, and kind. After spending the last two months giving everything she had to her puppies, it’s finally her time to be someone’s baby.

If you’re looking for a loyal companion with a gentle heart and are ready to help Clover through the final step of her journey to a healthy, happy future, apply to meet her today. We can’t wait for her to find the forever family she has always deserved.

Clover's adoption fee is $295, and she is spayed, vaccinated, and microchipped.

Hi, I'm Clyde!

You’ve heard of Bonnie and Clyde, but let me introduce myself as the Clyde you actually want to bring home! Forget the famous outlaw duo, I’m here to steal something much better, your heart!

My name is Clyde, and I’m a 3 year old, 94 lb. Great Pyrenees with a big fluffy coat, an even bigger heart, and a personality that’s worth getting to know.

When we first meet, I might seem a little unsure of you. I’m not trying to be mysterious like my name suggests, I just need a little time to make sure you’re my kind of person. Once I feel comfortable, you’ll see the sweet, affectionate guy hiding underneath all that fluff.

I’m a people-loving pup who enjoys being around my humans. If you’re looking for a loyal adventure buddy, I might just be your guy. I love exploring, going on adventures, and being included in whatever my family is doing. Whether we’re out discovering new places or just relaxing at home, I’m happiest when I’m with my people.

I also enjoy having dog friends! I do great with other dogs, but I’m not looking for a wild party crew. I prefer calmer, respectful dogs who understand that sometimes a good hangout session is better than an all-day wrestling match.

Now, before you get too impressed by my charming personality, I should probably confess a few things. I may be a Great Pyrenees, but I apparently missed the memo that fences are supposed to be the end of the adventure. I’m pretty talented at climbing and jumping fences over 6 feet tall, so my future home will need secure fencing to keep me safe.

I also have some history with chickens, and let’s just say they were not exactly on my friendship list. Because of my past, I’ll need a home that understands my guardian instincts and can keep me away from poultry. We don’t know my history with cats yet.

I would do best with kids over the age of 6 who understand that even though I love affection, I may need some space while I’m getting comfortable. The fastest way to my heart is patience, kindness, and letting me come to you when I’m ready.

So if you’re looking for a big fluffy guy who is equal parts adventure buddy, cuddle enthusiast, and professional fence inspector, I might just be your Clyde. Bonnie may have her own story, but I’m ready to write mine with my forever family!

My adoption fee is $295 and I'm neutered, vaccinated and microchipped.

Meet Diesel! 🤍

Diesel is a stunning one-year-old Great Dane weighing in at 105 pounds of pure love, goofiness, and puppy energy. While he may look like a full-grown dog, he’s really just a giant puppy who’s still learning how big he is.

Diesel is incredibly affectionate, loyal, and happiest when he’s with his person. He’ll gladly shower you with kisses, follow you from room to room, and do just about anything to convince you it’s time to play. If you’re looking for a dog who will be your best friend through every adventure, Diesel is ready for the job.

Because of his size and enthusiasm, Diesel needs an active home with someone who is committed to continuing his training and ideally has experience with giant breeds or understands what it takes to raise one. He’s very mouthy when he plays—not aggressive, just expressive—and it’s simply part of how he communicates. He has never shown us any intentional aggression, but his size and puppy exuberance mean he isn’t the right fit for every home.

Diesel gets along wonderfully with both big and small dogs. The only challenge is that he tries to play with little dogs the same way he plays with dogs his own size. He truly has no idea he’s over 100 pounds, so he’ll do best with someone who can help him continue learning appropriate manners.

We also want to share a part of Diesel’s story. Before coming to The Asher House, Diesel was adopted from a shelter for just one night before being returned after an accident. While someone was eating barbecue ribs, Diesel excitedly jumped up to grab the food and accidentally caught the person’s face. There was no blood, no stitches, and no lasting injury. Sadly, because of the incident, the shelter was considering euthanasia before reaching out to us.

Since arriving here, Diesel has been nothing but a gentle, loving boy. He has been wonderful with our staff, adores people, and quickly bonds with his favorite person. We truly believe the incident was just that—an accident caused by an oversized puppy who got too excited around food.

Diesel would do best in a home with children 12 years and older, no cats, and a family that can match his energy while continuing to help him grow into the incredible dog we know he is.

If you’re ready for a giant shadow, an endless supply of love, and a best friend who will make you laugh every day, apply to meet Diesel today. He is truly one special dog.

Diesel's adoption fee is $295 and he's neutered, vaccinated and microchipped.

Hi, I’m Duke! They say age slows you down, but I clearly missed that memo. The one who looks like he should be taking naps all day but instead is still out here living life like every walk could turn into an adventure.

I’m a 9 year old, 61 lb gentleman with a heart full of sweetness and a very questionable understanding of the word “slow down.” I love people, I love affection, and I fully believe pets should be a full-time job for anyone within reach of my face.

Don’t let the number fool you. I am still very much an active boy. Walks, exploring, hanging out with my people, I am in. I’ve got senior status on paper, but in my soul I am still running the show like a much younger Duke.

One of my favorite things in life is other dogs. I really enjoy their company and love to play when I get the chance. I’ve still got that social spark and I’m happiest when I can be part of the action with a dog friend who enjoys a good time too.

Now, I do need to be honest about one thing. Cats and I are not a good match. I tend to want to chase them, and they are not big fans of my enthusiasm, so a cat-free home is best for everyone involved.

As for kids, I would do best with children 7 and older who understand that I sometimes need space and calm moments. I’m sweet, but I also appreciate respect for my boundaries when I’m taking it easy.

Even though I’m 9, I’m really just looking for a home where I can enjoy life, go on my little adventures, and then come back and relax. A soft bed, some love, and a family to call my own would be my dream setup!

My adoption fee is $295 and I'm neutered, vaccinated and microchipped.

Meet me, Gus — 71 pounds of scruffy charm, big feelings, and undeniable character 🐾

I’m about 4 years old, a German Shepherd/Airedale Terrier–type guy with a wiry coat and a personality that’s… well, a little human. Give me a few minutes and you’ll see — I think, I feel, and I definitely know who my people are.

Once you’re in my circle, I’m incredibly affectionate and loyal. I bond hard and love even harder. But I’m not the “strangers are instantly my best friend” type. New people can make me uneasy, and I might bark at first to let you know I’m unsure. With patience, respect, and a proper introduction, I warm up and show my sweet, goofy side.

I’m smart (like… scary smart), housebroken, kennel trained, and I know my basic commands. I do best with structure and someone who understands I’m a sensitive guy — grabbing my collar, tugging my tail, or pushing my boundaries won’t go over well. I appreciate clear communication and mutual respect.

A few “Gus-isms” about me:
• Walks? Yes. Leash manners? Still working on it — I can be reactive.
• Dog friends? Yes, with proper introductions! I like to play, but I prefer smaller social circles over chaotic dog parks.
• Sharing? Not really my thing — I prefer my food, toys, bed, and my person’s attention to be mine.
• Cats? Hard pass.

I’m looking for a calm, experienced home that understands dogs like me — loyal, protective, a little quirky, and completely worth it. In the right home, I’ll be your shadow, your protector, and your most devoted companion.

If you’ve ever wanted a dog who feels more like a thoughtful, slightly opinionated roommate… I might just be your guy.

My adoption fee is $295 and I'm neutered, vaccinated and microchipped.

Yeah, it’s me. Hammy. The name is cute, the vibe is questionable, and the energy level lands somewhere between “gentle giant” and “professional backyard tornado.”

I’m a 1.5-year-old Old English Sheepdog mix weighing in at a solid 79 lbs. of fluff and enthusiasm. I am very active, very energetic, and very committed to making every day feel like an event. If there is movement, I am involved. If there is excitement, I am leading it.

Now don’t get me wrong, I am also a very sweet boy. I love people, I love attention, and one of my absolute favorite things in the world is water. Puddles, hoses, tubs, anything wet, I am there. If it involves splashing, I consider it my personal invitation.

I am currently in a training program because, let’s be honest, I’ve got big feelings and even bigger energy. I love learning, I try hard, and I actually enjoy having a job to do. I just sometimes forget that I am built like a fluffy wrecking ball with opinions.

I also really enjoy other dogs. I like being social and playing. I do best with dogs who can match my energy and understand my play style. A calm, delicate friend might not fully appreciate my “zoom first, think later” approach to life. Cats are unknown territory for me, but I can be cat tested if my potential home has a cat. I am still working on my manners and impulse control when I meet people for the first time but I'm working on it and getting better each day.

Because of my size and enthusiasm, I would do best in a home with adults and kids over 11. While little kids might think I’m fun I am a lot of dog, and I need people who are ready for my level of energy and training needs.

At the end of the day, I am a big-hearted, high-energy, water-loving goofball who is still learning how to channel all of this into the best version of myself. With the right person, I am going to be loyal, hilarious, and a whole lot of fun!

My adoption fee is $295 and I'm neutered, vaccinated and microchipped.

Herdini ❤️

Looking for a little magician to steal your heart? Meet Herdini—yes, like Houdini! She earned her name because she’s quite the escape artist. In her previous home, she had a knack for slipping under the fence and finding the tiniest little nooks to hide in. Don’t worry—she’s much more interested in escaping into your heart these days!

Herdini is a 5-year-old, 22 lb. Terrier mix with a big personality packed into a small frame. She’s potty trained, kennel trained, loves people, and never says no to a tasty treat. She also enjoys playing with toys and gets along well with other dogs, making her a wonderful companion for both people and canine friends. She is also cat friendly and would do well in a home with children ages 9 and up.

Herdini is looking for a new beginning after the loss of her previous owner. Despite that difficult change, she has remained a sweet, loving girl who is ready to bond with a family of her own.

When Herdini first came into our care, she had a large mass that needed to be removed. She came through surgery beautifully and has healed very well, and she’s feeling great as she looks forward to the next chapter of her life.

If you’re looking for a fun, affectionate companion with a touch of mischief and a whole lot of love to give, Herdini is ready to work her magic on your family. Just be sure your fences are secure—this little Houdini likes to keep everyone on their toes!

Herdini’s adoption fee is $295, and she is spayed, vaccinated, and microchipped.

Meet Juniper! 💙

Looking for a puppy who's equal parts adventure buddy and cuddle companion? Meet Juniper! This adorable 9-week-old Australian Shepherd, Jack Russell Terrier, and Beagle mix is ready to find a family to call his own.

Juniper's journey started with his amazing mom, Clover, who traveled all the way from Mississippi to The Asher House. Shortly after arriving, we discovered Clover was pregnant! She welcomed Juniper and his littermates into the world here in our care, where they've been loved, socialized, and cared for from day one.

Juniper is a confident, loving puppy with a playful personality and a heart full of affection. He enjoys spending time with people, loves playing with other dogs, does well with cats, and is great with kids. He's always excited to investigate something new, but once playtime is over, he's more than happy to settle in for some snuggles.

When fully grown, Juniper is expected to be a medium-sized dog, making him the perfect size for everything from neighborhood walks to weekend adventures. With his eager-to-please attitude, sweet nature, and loyal heart, he's sure to blossom into an incredible lifelong companion who will be by your side through every stage of life.

Juniper's adoption fee is $495 and he's neutered, vaccinated and microchipped.

Katie ❤️

If you’re looking for a gentle and sweet companion, Katie may be your perfect match. This 4-year-old, 19-pound Terrier mix has a quiet, independent nature and a heart that’s just waiting for the right person to help it shine.

Katie is potty trained, kennel trained, and has great manners. She can be a shy when meeting new people, but with patience and kindness, she blossoms into a sweet, affectionate companion. She enjoys attention and will happily come over for pets and cuddles when she’s ready, making every moment of affection feel that much more special.

Katie is perfectly content relaxing on her own but also enjoys checking in with her people for love and reassurance. She loves treats, likes other dogs, and has lived peacefully alongside them. She also does well with cats and would be a great fit for a home with children ages 9 and up. While she enjoys canine companionship, she can get nervous when larger dogs are playing rambunctiously around her, so she’d thrive with calmer dog friends or as the center of your world.

Katie came to us after her previous owner passed away, and she’s hoping for a fresh start with a family who will give her the patience, security, and love she deserves. In return, she’ll offer quiet companionship, unwavering loyalty, and the sweetest little moments that make earning her trust so rewarding.

If you’re ready to open your heart to a gentle soul, Katie is ready to meet you.

Katie’s adoption fee is $295, and she's spayed, vaccinated, and microchipped.

Meet Kendrick!

Kendrick is a two-year-old Pointer/Heeler/Terrier mix who truly checks every box. If you've been searching for that perfect balance of adventure buddy and cuddle companion, this is your guy.

At around 65 pounds, Kendrick is the kind of dog who fits beautifully into just about any home. He's incredibly loyal, smart, affectionate, and fun. While he can be a little shy when meeting new people, once he feels safe, his sweet and loving personality shines through. Kendrick is looking for a patient family that will give him the time he needs to build trust—it's well worth the wait, and the bond you'll form with him is incredibly rewarding.

Kendrick absolutely loves being around other dogs and thrives in a pack setting. He has shown nothing but wonderful behavior with dogs of all sizes and would do best in a home with another friendly canine companion. He also did very well during his cat test and is great with children.

A securely fenced backyard would be ideal for Kendrick, giving him a safe space to run, play, and build confidence. He's still learning about life on a leash and doesn't have much experience walking that way yet, so he'll do best with someone who has the time and patience to continue helping him gain confidence and enjoy his walks.

While Kendrick enjoys playtime and has a fun, playful side, he's not "go-go-go" all day. He also loves the quieter moments—peaceful afternoons, relaxing at home, and cuddling up beside his favorite people.

Kendrick's story makes him even more special. He was rescued at the very last moment from a high-kill shelter in Texas. Now he's embracing his second chance at life and is ready to find a family who will give him the love, patience, and security he's always deserved.

If you're looking for a loyal best friend who will reward your patience with endless love and devotion, Kendrick is ready to meet you.

His adoption fee is $295, and he is neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped.

My name is Kodiak. You know those giant, majestic bears that roam the wilderness and command respect wherever they go? Well, I'm basically that... if that bear enjoyed belly rubs, cozy beds, and following his people around the house.

I'm a 4.5 year old, 93 lb. Great Pyrenees with a sweet personality, a fluffy coat, and a talent for making everyone I meet fall in love with me. I adore people and would happily spend my days hanging out with my family, soaking up affection, and reminding everyone that I am, in fact, a very handsome boy. I enjoy adventures, but I'm not in a rush to conquer the world.

A nice walk, a lot of time outdoors, a chance to explore and sniff the latest neighborhood news, and then heading home to relax sounds like a pretty perfect day to me. I believe life is all about balance. A little fun, a little exploring, and a whole lot of lounging.

As for other dogs, I've decided I'd rather have my people all to myself. I would be happiest as the only dog in the home where I can enjoy being the center of attention and not worry about sharing my kingdom.

My history with cats is unknown, so a home without feline roommates would be best for now.

I would also do best with kids over the age of 6 who understand that sometimes even big fluffy guys need a little personal space. Respect goes a long way, and I'll happily repay it with loyalty, companionship, and plenty of cuddles.

My dream home includes plenty of affection, a cozy place to relax, and people who appreciate the company of a very handsome Great Pyrenees. Luckily for you, I happen to know where to find one!

My adoption fee is $295 and I'm neutered, vaccinated and microchipped.

Meet Lady Mae ❤️

Lady Mae is a 4-year-old English Mastiff/St. Bernard mix weighing 85 pounds, and she is truly one of our favorite dogs here at The Asher House Sanctuary.

She has the sweetest soul. Lady is affectionate, gentle, and loves being close to her people. She gets along wonderfully with both small and large dogs and has never met a stranger she didn’t want to be friends with.

Lady is the perfect balance of adventure buddy and couch companion. She loves going on pack walks and would happily join you for hikes, neighborhood strolls, or weekend adventures. But if your perfect day involves cuddling on the couch and watching movies, she’s just as happy doing that too. As long as she’s with her person, she’s content.

She walks beautifully on a leash and has a calm, easygoing personality that makes her a joy to be around.

Now, every great dog has one little quirk—and Lady’s is that she’s very food motivated. If there’s a trash can nearby, she’ll happily investigate it, especially in the middle of the night! We use baby locks on our trash cans at the sanctuary, and that’s all it takes to keep this little trash treasure hunter out of trouble.

Lady also has a minor medical consideration. During her spay surgery, there was a complication that makes it a little harder for her to hold her urine for long periods. She knows she should potty outside, and as long as she’s taken out regularly, she does very well and shouldn’t have accidents in the home.

Lady would thrive in a home with children ages 7 and up. She does wonderfully with other dogs but is not a good fit for a home with cats.

More than anything, Lady is looking for a family that will shower her with love, attention, and kindness. She has so much love to give and deserves a home where she’ll be cherished for the incredible dog she is.

If you’re looking for a loyal best friend with a heart as big as she is, Lady may be the perfect match.

Apply to meet Lady today. We can’t wait for you to fall in love with this beautiful girl.

Lady Mae's adoption fee is $295 and she's spayed, vaccinated and microchipped.

Hi, I'm Lake! Some dogs rush in like waves, I prefer to settle in like calm water that just feels right. I’m an 8.5 year old Labrador Retriever mix, and I’ve reached that very important stage of life where I enjoy two things equally, going on adventures and immediately following them up with a very serious nap. Balance is everything.

I’m a very sweet guy who loves people. Affection is one of my favorite things, and I’m happiest when I’m near my humans, just hanging out and soaking up the good moments in life. I’ve learned that the best days are the simple ones, the walks, the company, and the quiet time together after. Don’t let my age fool you though. I still enjoy getting out and exploring in my own steady, thoughtful way.

When it comes to other dogs, I can be a bit selective with my friendships. I know what I like and prefer calm, respectful interactions. But, at this point in my life, I would really love to be the only pet in the home so I can fully enjoy my space, my people, and my well-earned peace.

I would do best in a home without cats and as far as kid, I’d do best with those 7 and older who understand that I appreciate a gentle approach and sometimes just need a little space to relax. I’m very sweet, I just like things calm and predictable as I enjoy my golden years in style.

I’m a loyal, loving companion who is looking for a home where I can settle in, be close to my people, and enjoy life at a peaceful pace. Think of me as your personal reminder that the best lakes are the ones you can sit beside and just breathe for a while!

My adoption fee is $295 and I'm neutered, vaccinated and microchipped.

Aloha. My name is Lilo. Yes, that Lilo. Unfortunately, I came without my own Stitch, but I am currently accepting applications.

I'm a 3 year old, 95 lb. Mastiff mix, which means I look like I could wrestle a bear, but emotionally I'm more of a "did that leaf just move" kind of guy.

New people are a little overwhelming, and I'll need some time to decide you're actually part of my ohana. Once you've earned my trust, though, congratulations. You now have a 95 pound shadow who believes personal space is a myth and that every couch was specifically designed for us to share.

I'm a professional homebody. I'd much rather spend my evenings snuggled up inside where it's cozy, snacks magically appear, and we can pretend the outside world doesn't exist. If your ideal weekend includes blankets, movies, and absolutely no social obligations, I think we just became best friends.

I also get along great with other dogs. My only request is that they're more "peaceful yoga retreat" than "spring break in Miami." Calm friends are my favorite kind of friends.

Cats are still a mystery to me. They might be tiny roommates. They might be fuzzy little bosses. We can absolutely do a cat test to find out.

As for tiny humans, I'd do best with kids 8 years or older who understand that sometimes I need a little extra time and space while I figure things out. Once I'm comfortable, I'm all about gentle affection and hanging out with my favorite people.

So if you're looking for a dog who's equal parts gentle giant, cuddle enthusiast, professional couch companion, and recovering introvert, I might just be your guy

My adoption fee is $295 and I'm neutered, vaccinated and microchipped.

Hi I'm Maddie!

Some dogs walk into your life like a gentle reminder that good hearts still exist. That is me, Maddie!

I am a 6 year old, 77 lb. German Shepherd with a soft heart, an active spirit, and a deep love for my people. I enjoy being part of the world around me, whether that is going on walks, exploring new places, or simply spending time with someone I trust.

Even though I am an adult dog, I still have a nice balance of being active and enjoying my adventures, while also loving my quiet, cozy time indoors. I also love learning and thrive when I have structure, patience, and clear guidance. I feel most confident when I know what is expected of me and when I can build a strong connection with my person through positive training and consistency.

I prefer a calm environment where I can feel safe and settled. I do not enjoy sharing my space with other animals, so I would be happiest as the only pet in the home. I would also appreciate a home with children over the age of 7 who understand that sometimes I may need a little space to feel comfortable and relaxed. I would do best in a home without cats.

I am ready for a family who will continue to guide me with kindness, structure, and patience. I respond beautifully when I feel understood and supported. In the right home, I will not just be a dog. I will be a loyal companion, a steady presence, and a soft place to land at the end of every day!

My adoption fee is $295 and I'm spayed, vaccinated and microchipped.

Maizie ❤️

Maizie is a 7-year-old, 40 lb. Terrier mix who is searching for a loving forever home after the heartbreaking loss of her owner. While this has been a big change for her, she’s ready to find a family who will give her the love and stability she deserves. She is both potty trained and kennel trained, making the transition into her new home that much easier.

She is shy when meeting new people, but with some patience, her sweet personality begins to shine. Once she feels comfortable, she’s incredibly affectionate and enjoys spending time with the people she trusts.

Maizie has lived successfully with many other dogs and enjoys their company. She also does well with cats and would be a great fit for a home with children ages 9 and up. She loves playing with toys and would be happy in a home where she has both canine companionship and people to love.

If you’re looking for a gentle, loyal companion who just needs a second chance, this sweet girl is ready to fill your home with quiet love and faithful companionship.

Maizie’s adoption fee is $295, and she's spayed, vaccinated, and microchipped.

Meet Mambo! You know how a good mambo isn’t rushed, it’s all about timing, rhythm, and feeling things out first? That’s me. I’m not the guy who runs straight onto the dance floor. I’m the one watching from the side, getting the vibe, and then once I’m ready, I’ve got some pretty great moves!

I’m a 6 year old, 64 lb. husky mix with a soft heart and a thoughtful approach to life. New people can make me nervous at first, so I like to take my time getting to know you. But if you’re patient with me and let me come around on my own terms, I turn into a very sweet, affectionate guy who loves being close to his people. I’m talking cuddles, lounging, and just enjoying the comfort of being together.

With other dogs, I’m kind of a “read the room” type. If another dog comes in calm and respectful, I’m happy to engage and hang out. If they come in hot and reactive, I’m going to politely decline that interaction. Energy matters to me.

As for cats, well, I did spend some time in a foster home with bunnies, and let’s just say I was a little too interested in them. Because of that, a no-cat home is probably the best choice for me. For kids, I’d do best in a home with teens 15 and older who understand that I need space at first and can respect my boundaries while I get comfortable. I’m not difficult, I just appreciate people who let me settle in at my own pace.

What you’ll find with me is a dog who may take time in the beginning but gives you something really special once that trust is there. I’m gentle, loyal, and deeply connected to my people, and I truly enjoy just being by your side. If you’re willing to go at my pace and let me open up, I’ll be right there with you, ready to share all the quiet moments and adventures life has to offer!

My adoption fee is $295 and I'm neutered, vaccinated and microchipped.

Meet Mocca! If you’re looking for something mild and low-energy, I am not your cup of coffee. I’m more like a double shot Mocca with a whole lot of personality mixed in. Smooth when I need to be, bold when I want to be, and always keeping life interesting.

I’m a 6.5 year old American Pit Bull Terrier mix at 54 lbs, and I’ve come a long way to become the girl I am today. When I first arrived from the shelter, I had some big feelings and didn’t always know how to handle them. But since joining The Asher House behavior training program, I’ve put in the work and made some serious progress. I’ve learned how to regulate myself. Growth looks good on me!

Now, I’m an active, fun-loving girl who thrives when I’m with my people. I love being close to you. Whether we’re out doing something exciting or just hanging out, I’m happiest when I’m part of your world. I’ve got energy to burn and would do best with a family that understands dogs like me and can continue guiding me so I keep shining.

When it comes to other dogs, I prefer the calm and respectful type. I’m not looking for chaos, I’m looking for good vibes only. A mellow dog who understands personal space is my kind of friend. Cats are a hard no for me. We’ve discussed it, and I’ve decided it’s not the lifestyle I want.

For kids, I’d do best in a home with children 10 and older who understand that I sometimes need space and can respect my boundaries. I’m a sweet girl, I just appreciate a little understanding.

What matters most to me is finding someone who understands that I’m a work-in-progress success story with a whole lot of love to give. I’ve grown so much, I love my people deeply, and I’m ready for a home where I can keep being my best self right alongside you!

My adoption fee is $295 and I'm spayed, vaccinated and microchipped.

Hi, I'm Monica, like that friend who would absolutely ignore your text for three business months. I’m a 5-year-old terrier mix at just 15 lbs. who is quietly learning that the world might not be as scary as it first seemed.

I am what you would call a very shy girl with a very big story. I came from a hoarding situation where I had very little contact with humans, so right now I am still figuring out what it means to be safe, seen, and understood. People can feel a little scary to me, and I need time. A lot of time. The kind of time that cannot be rushed, scheduled, or sped up.

What I need most is a person who understands that trust is not instant for me. It is built slowly, in quiet moments, with patience and consistency. I am not the kind of dog who will run into your arms on day one. I am the kind who learns, little by little, that your presence is safe, your voice is kind, and your space is predictable.

With other dogs, I do okay. I would likely do best with a calm, confident medium or large male dog who can help show me the ropes, but I would also be perfectly okay being the only dog in the home, where I can take my time and settle at my own pace.

Cats are still an unknown part of my story, as I have not had the chance to learn about them yet. I would do best in an adult only home or with kids over 15 who understand that I need space, patience, and calm energy. Most importantly, I need people who understand that even though I am small, I am still a full-sized soul with feelings, boundaries, and a need to feel safe.

I should not be picked up whenever someone feels like it. I deserve the same respect and consent that any larger dog would receive.

Right now, I am not looking for fast love. I am looking for patient love. The kind that waits, listens, and lets me decide when I am ready. And when I am, I will quietly show you just how special Monica can be!

My adoption fee is $295 and I'm spayed, vaccinated and microchipped.

Meet Mystic ❤️

If you’re looking for a dog who’s equal parts adventure buddy, cuddle bug, and lovable troublemaker, Mystic might just be your perfect match.

Mystic is a 1-year-old, 58 lb. German Shepherd and Belgian Malinois mix. She’s incredibly loving, fiercely loyal, and full of life. Whether she’s splashing through water, zooming around the yard, or sneaking your favorite item off the counter just because she can, Mystic approaches every day with enthusiasm and joy.

She is the kind of dog who lives life at full speed. Her energy is contagious, her personality is larger than life, and her happiness has a way of making everyone around her smile. While some may see her wild side as something to manage, we see it as one of the things that makes her so special.

Mystic absolutely loves other dogs and thrives in canine company. She has a rough-and-rowdy play style and would do best with medium to large dogs who can keep up with her energy. We have not observed any aggression toward people or other dogs while she’s been with us—she simply loves to play, wrestle, run, and have fun.

She would do best in a home without cats. Mystic previously lived with cats but eventually had an altercation due to her rough play style, and we want to set her up for success moving forward.

Mystic does well with children and enjoys being around people, but because she gets excited and tends to jump up for kisses and attention, we believe she’d be the best fit for a home with kids ages 11 and older.

This girl is looking for an active, experienced adopter who understands working breeds and, ideally, has experience with German Shepherds, Belgian Malinois, or Wolf Hybrids. She would make an incredible hiking partner, running companion, or outdoor adventure buddy. Physical exercise is important for Mystic, but so is mental stimulation. She’s intelligent, driven, and happiest when she has a job to do and room to explore.

Mystic is not a beginner dog. She will require patience, consistency, training, and someone who appreciates her unique personality. In return, you’ll get a deeply devoted companion who will love you with her whole heart and make every day a little more exciting.

If you’re ready for the challenge, the adventure, and the unconditional love that comes with a dog like Mystic, she is ready to find the forever home she deserves.

Mystic's adoption fee is $295 and she is spayed, vaccinated and microchipped.

Meet Navi! 🩷

Navi is an adorable 4-year-old, 13 lb. Pug mix with the cutest little personality—and she’s also a proud tripod. Don’t let her three legs fool you, though. She gets around just fine and has the sweetest little limp that only adds to her charm.

When Navi first arrived at The Asher House, we were told she had been surrendered after reportedly biting a service worker in her previous home. We believe it’s important to share that history, but it’s equally important to share our own experience with her.

Since coming to the sanctuary, Navi has been around our team of more than 75 staff members and has never shown any aggression toward anyone. She has never growled, attempted to bite, or given us any reason to believe she’s anything other than a shy little dog who needs time to feel safe. As she’s settled in, we’ve watched her confidence grow, her personality blossom, and her sweet, loving nature shine through.

Navi isn’t looking for perfection—she’s looking for patience. She needs someone who will allow her to build trust at her own pace and give her the love and reassurance she’s been searching for. Once she feels safe, we believe she has everything it takes to become an incredibly loyal and loving companion.

Navi enjoys playing with other dogs, but she can play a little too enthusiastically for some pups. Because of her rough-and-tumble play style, she would do best as the only dog in the home where she can soak up all of the love and attention. She also likes to chase cats, so she's looking for a cat-free home.

While Navi has played well with many children in the past, we believe she'll thrive best in an adult-only home where she can focus all of her love and attention on her people and continue building her confidence.

She has so much potential and so much love to give. Every day we get to know her a little better, and every day we’re reminded what a special little dog she is.

If you’re willing to open your heart to a dog who simply needs someone to believe in her, Navi may be the perfect match. Apply to meet the three-legged Pug you never knew you needed—but who has been waiting for someone just like you.

Navi's adoption fee is $295, and she is spayed, vaccinated, and microchipped.

Meet Otis

Otis is a Saint Bernard with the heart of both a playful puppy and a gentle lion. He’s a big, strong, and powerful dog who is full of life, love, and personality.

Otis is incredibly playful and energetic—he loves to learn, go on adventures, and then settle in for some good snuggles. Like many St. Bernards, he can be a bit stubborn, but that’s all part of his charm. With the right guidance and leadership, Otis has the potential to be an absolutely incredible companion.

He is currently working on his leash skills and resource guarding around food, and he’s already making progress. Otis has joined several pack walks and does well with many dogs, but he can be selective. Because of this, he would thrive best as the only dog in the home. That said, if you already have a dog and feel a connection with Otis, a proper introduction is essential.

Otis came to us from Tacoma Humane after being surrendered due to resource guarding and a scuffle with another dog. Since arriving, he’s made great strides—he came in severely underweight and has already gained 10 pounds, with a bit more to go. He’s on a great path and just needs someone committed to continuing that journey with him.

Otis would do best in a home with no small dogs, no cats, and no children under 11. He needs an owner who understands large breeds and is ready to invest time into his training, structure, and continued growth.

If you’re looking for a loyal, loving, larger-than-life companion and you’re ready to lead him with love and consistency, Otis might just be your dream dog!

His adoption fee is $295 and he is neutered, vaccinated and microchipped.

Peggy & Bug: Two Tiny Survivors Looking for Their Forever Safe Place!

Some dogs find each other. These two need each other.

Meet Peggy and Bug, an inseparable bonded pair with hearts far bigger than their tiny bodies. They’ve overcome more than most dogs ever should, but they haven’t let that stop them from believing in love.

Peggy is a 4 year old, 5 lb. long-haired Chihuahua/Dachshund mix who proudly rocks three and a half legs after losing part of a back foot. She doesn’t let it slow her down—she’s resilient, gentle, and absolutely adorable.

Bug is a 7 year, 4 lb. itty-bitty Chihuahua with the sweetest little head tilt, a reminder of a fractured skull she survived. Her tilted head does not hold her back, only adds to her charm, and once she trusts you, she’ll melt right into your lap.

These two are shy when meeting new people, but don’t worry—they’re easily bribed with treats! Give them a little patience, a few snacks, and some gentle kindness, and they’ll reward you by becoming your tiny shadows and loyal cuddle buddies. They lean on each other for confidence, comfort, and courage, so they must be adopted together.

Peggy and Bug are looking for a very special home where they can continue to feel safe. They would do best with:

A calm, patient family willing to let them settle in at their own pace.
Only small dogs—their tiny size makes living with large dogs unsafe.
No small children, as accidental bumps or falls could easily injure them.
A home with cats would be fine for these two gentle souls.
Plenty of cozy blankets, soft beds, and laps for snuggling once they’ve decided you’re their person.

These aren’t dogs looking for excitement—they’re looking for peace. For someone who understands that the best relationships are built on trust, patience, and unconditional love.

If you’re willing to open your heart to two little underdogs who have already beaten the odds, you’ll gain two devoted best friends who will spend every day reminding you that the bravest hearts often come in the tiniest packages.

Peggy and Bug have survived together. Now they’re looking for the forever home where they can truly thrive—together. ❤️

Peggy and Bug's adoption fee is $495 for the two of them and they are both spayed, vaccinated and microchipped.

Apply to meet them today!

Meet Pepper Ann ❤️

If you’re looking for a dog who wakes up every day ready to enjoy life, Pepper Ann is your girl.

At 1.5 years old and 33 pounds, Pepper Ann is thought to be a Cattle Dog mix and she has a fun-loving, social personality that makes her a joy to be around. She loves being right in the middle of the action, whether she’s playing with her dog friends, exploring the yard, or following her people around to see what exciting thing might happen next.

Pepper Ann and her sister, Twin, came from a difficult situation, but you would never know it by the happiness she brings to every day. She has embraced her second chance with an open heart and an enthusiastic spirit.

She absolutely loves other dogs and seems to make friends wherever she goes. If there’s a game of chase happening, Pepper Ann is usually right in the middle of it, happily running, playing, and encouraging everyone else to join the fun. She also enjoys people just as much and is always ready to soak up attention and affection from everyone she meets including kids. Pepper Ann also did wonderfully during her cat introduction, showing calm, respectful manners.

Despite her playful nature, Pepper Ann settles nicely after a day of fun and enjoys spending time relaxing with her family. She has a wonderful balance of energy and affection, making her an easy companion for both adventures and quiet evenings at home.

Pepper Ann is already showing excellent habits around the house. She keeps her sleeping area clean overnight and is expected to transition into house training with ease. She’s bright, eager to learn, and ready to become a cherished member of her forever family.

Meet Pluto! 🖤

Pluto is a handsome 4 year old, 95 lb. Black Lab/Weimaraner mix with a heart that’s just as big as his personality. He’s smart, playful, affectionate, and always ready for his next adventure. Whether you’re heading out on a hike, camping for the weekend, or relaxing on the couch after a long day, Pluto will happily be right by your side.

Pluto gets along well with both big and small dogs and would do best in a home with children over 9 years old. He’s an energetic dog who will thrive in a medium to active home where he can continue exploring the world with his person. We feel Pluto would do best in a home without cats.

One thing to know about Pluto is that he’s still working on his leash manners. He came to us wearing an extremely tight prong collar, and his neck is still healing from the wounds it caused. Because of that, we’re committed to helping him learn through patience, trust, and positive reinforcement. The good news is that off leash, he’s an incredible member of the pack and is eager to learn, eager to please, and eager to love.

Pluto doesn’t need perfection—he just needs someone willing to invest a little time and patience into an amazing dog. In return, you’ll gain a loyal best friend who’s ready for every hike, every camping trip, and every adventure life has to offer.

Pluto's adoption fee is $295 and he's neutered, vaccinated and microchipped.

If you think Pluto might be the missing piece of your family, apply to meet him today. We can’t wait for you to fall in love with him!

Meet Ray ❤️

If every friend group has one dog who keeps everyone smiling, it’s Ray.

At 3 years old and 31 pounds, Ray is a Terrier mix who is full of personality, charm, and just the right amount of playful mischief. He’s the kind of dog who loves to grab a stick, dash across the yard, and invite all of his dog friends to join the fun. He has a wonderful sense of play and always seems to find a way to make everyone around him smile.

Ray came from heartbreaking conditions, but you would never know it by looking at him today. Those difficult days are behind him, and he’s embraced his second chance with enthusiasm, joy, and an incredible zest for life.

He absolutely loves people and thrives on attention. Whether he’s joining you on an adventure or simply hanging out in the backyard, Ray wants to be part of whatever is going on. His happy, outgoing personality makes him a favorite wherever he goes.

Ray gets along beautifully with other dogs and enjoys having friends to wrestle, chase, and play with. He also did wonderfully during his cat introduction, showing calm, respectful manners. Ray would do best with kids over the age of 6 who can be patient and gentle with him while he adjusts to his new life!

Ray is a smart boy who is already developing excellent habits around the house. He keeps his sleeping area clean overnight and is expected to transition into house training with ease. He’s eager to learn, loves being with his people, and has the kind of easygoing attitude that makes him a joy to live with.

While Ray enjoys meeting new people, very large, high-energy crowds can be a bit overwhelming at first. He’ll do best with a family that introduces him to new experiences at a pace that helps him feel confident and successful.

If you’re looking for a dog who will fill your days with laughter, adventures, and unconditional love, Ray is ready to bring his joyful spirit into your home.

Ray's adoption fee is $295 and he's neutered, vaccinated and microchipped.

Hi, I’m Shelly, a 3 year old, 50 lb. Akita, American Pit Bull Terrier Mix and I'm a sweet and active girl with a big personality, a love for adventure, and a serious appreciation for attention from my humans. I may take a little time to settle into new situations and get fully comfortable, but I’m confident, social, and curious as I get to know my environment and the people in it.

Once I’m in my groove, my affectionate side really shines. I love being with my people, getting attention, and sharing space with those I trust. I’m the kind of dog who enjoys being part of the action, whether that’s hanging out with you or heading out for a walk or adventure.

I do well with other dogs as long as they respect my space and play style. I enjoy social time, but I also appreciate polite boundaries and calm interactions. I am not a match for homes with cats. I do resource guard around my food with people, so I need a home that understands structure and management during mealtimes. Because of this, I would do best with children 12 and up who can respect my space and understand that I need to be left alone when I am eating. Clear boundaries help me succeed and feel secure.

What I’m really looking for is a home that matches my energy, appreciates my affectionate side, and understands that I do best with clear boundaries and consistency. I’m active, loving, and full-of-personality and am ready to share adventures, connection, and a whole lot of heart with the right family!

My adoption fee is $295 and I'm spayed, vaccinated and microchipped.

Meet Smudge! ❤️

Smudge is a 10-month-old, 25 lb. Chihuahua Terrier mix with a gentle heart and a playful spirit. She’s looking for a patient, loving home where she can continue to grow into the confident little dog we know she’s capable of becoming.

Smudge can be a little anxious, jumpy, and timid around new people, but with time, patience, and a predictable routine, she continues to come out of her shell. Once she trusts you and chooses you as her person, she’ll be your most loyal little shadow, happily following you wherever you go.

Smudge does best with medium to large, friendly dogs and would enjoy having a confident canine companion to help her feel secure. She is looking for a cat-free home and would do best with children ages 9 and older who can be patient, respectful of her space, and allow her to build trust at her own pace.

She’s still a puppy at heart and loves to play, but she will thrive in a calm, supportive home where she can settle in and continue gaining confidence. Watching Smudge blossom and learn to trust is incredibly rewarding, and she’ll make a wonderful companion for someone willing to give her the time, patience, and understanding she deserves.

If you’re looking for a sweet, loyal little dog who just needs a chance to shine, Smudge might be the perfect addition to your family.

Smudge's adoption fee is $295, and she is spayed, vaccinated, and microchipped.

Meet Sol ❤️

If happiness had four paws and a wagging tail, it would probably look a lot like Sol.

At just 4 months old and 25 pounds, Sol is thought to be a Pit Bull Terrier Mix and is everything you could hope for in a puppy. He’s friendly, playful, curious, and absolutely loves everyone he meets. Whether it’s another dog, a new person, or the start of a new adventure, Sol greets life with a happy heart and a constantly wagging tail.

Sol was found on the side of a rural Mississippi road by a kindhearted person who made sure he got the second chance he deserved. Now he’s ready to leave that chapter behind and find a family to call his own.

He was recently living with a large group of dogs and gets along beautifully with every one of them. He’s social, respectful, and loves having canine friends to play with. Sol also did well during his cat introduction, showing the kind of gentle curiosity you’d hope to see from a young puppy. His puppy love would also be great with kids over 5 who can play respectfully with him and teach him basic manners.

Like any puppy his age, Sol is still learning about the world, but he’s off to a wonderful start. He’s smart, eager to learn, and already developing great habits. He keeps his sleeping area remarkably clean overnight, and we expect house training to come along quickly with a consistent routine and positive reinforcement.

Sol is looking for a family ready to embrace all the fun, laughter, and adventures that come with raising a puppy. In return, he’ll fill your home with joy, unconditional love, and plenty of happy memories for years to come.

Meet Thorne! 💙

Say hello to Thorne, a lovable 9-week-old Australian Shepherd, Jack Russell Terrier, and Beagle mix with a playful personality and an even bigger heart! This handsome little guy is ready to find a forever family that will love him as much as he'll love them.

Thorne's journey started with his wonderful mom, Clover, who came to The Asher House all the way from Mississippi. Soon after she arrived, we discovered she was pregnant!

Meet Todd ❤️

Todd is proof that sometimes the quietest dogs have the biggest hearts.

At 3 years old and 22 pounds, Todd is a sweet Beagle who is learning that people can be kind. He likely hasn’t had much positive experience with human companionship, so he’s still discovering what it means to feel safe, loved, and part of a family. Every day, he grows a little more confident, and watching that progress has been incredibly rewarding.

Todd was found near a property with a notorious reputation for breeding Beagles. While we can’t say for certain where he came from, his limited socialization with people suggests he may not have experienced much positive human interaction. Because of that, he was at risk of euthanasia at the shelter before getting the second chance he deserved. Now he’s surrounded by love, and he’s slowly beginning to realize that this new life is here to stay.

One thing Todd already knows is that he absolutely loves other dogs. They are his comfort zone, his confidence builders, and his teachers. He thrives in the company of canine friends and would do best in a home with another friendly, confident dog who can continue showing him that the world isn’t such a scary place after all. Todd also did well during his cat introduction, showing calm, respectful manners. As Todd is still learning to trust he'd do best with children over the age of 7 who can be patient with him and give him lots of love.

Although Todd is still building trust with people, he has already made wonderful progress. He chooses to stay close to his foster, happily follows along, and is becoming more comfortable with gentle handling every day. He doesn’t ask for much—just patience, kindness, and someone willing to let him move at his own pace.

Todd is also keeping his sleeping area clean overnight and has shown wonderful habits as he settles into indoor life. With consistency and encouragement, we expect him to continue blossoming into a wonderful companion.

If you believe that some of life’s greatest rewards come from earning the trust of a gentle soul, Todd just might be your perfect match. The family who gives him the time he deserves will get to experience something truly special—the joy of watching a shy heart learn to love without fear.

Todd's adoption fee is $295 and he's neutered, vaccinated and microchipped.

Hi, I'm Turbo. Turbo is proof that "special needs" just means extra special. This 1.5-year-old cream Shar Pei Lab mix is around 75 Ibs. of pure love, silliness, and puppy joy. He's playful, social, and has the softest coat to match his sweet soul.

Turbo loves other dogs and is an expert cuddler. He has very interesting blue eyes but do not worry, he can see! He has Corneal Endothelial Dystrophy, a non-painful condition that causes cloudiness over time. His vision is currently decent, and daily eye drops help slow further progression of this condition.

Turbo doesn't know he's "special needs" he just knows how to love. He's happy, active, and ready to be someone's best friend. With his compromised eyesight he'd do best with children who are 8 or older who understand his warmth and energetic nature.

Turbo has been at the sanctuary for a few months and gets along wonderfully with all of the other dogs and the many people who care for him. He doesn't have much leash experience yet, so he'll benefit from continued training and a home with a securely fenced backyard to help him transition smoothly from sanctuary life to family life. Turbo tested well with cats; because of his vision and playful nature, he would do best with slow and proper introductions to any feline roommates.

His adoption fee is $295 and he's neutered, vaccinated and microchipped.

Meet Twin ❤️

If your idea of the perfect companion is a dog who is calm, gentle, and simply happy to be by your side, then Twin may be the one you’ve been waiting for.

At 1.5 years old and 30 pounds, Twin is thought to be a Catahoula Leopard Dog Mix and she has a wonderfully easygoing personality. She’s the kind of dog who doesn’t need to be the center of attention to steal your heart. While she enjoys running and playing with her dog friends, she’s just as happy lounging inside, stretched out on the couch, soaking up the air conditioning, and enjoying a peaceful afternoon.

Twin has a quiet confidence about her. She takes life as it comes, gets along beautifully with everyone she meets, and never seems interested in creating drama. Her calm, steady nature makes her the kind of companion who easily settles into family life.

She loves other dogs and fits naturally into a group without needing to be the leader. Twin also passed her cat introduction with flying colors, showing gentle, respectful manners around feline friends. She would also be great in a home with kids over 5 who can respect her space and playful energy.

Twin is already developing wonderful habits around the house. She keeps her sleeping area clean overnight and has all the signs of a dog who will transition into house training with ease. She’s smart, well-mannered, and eager to be part of a loving home.
