CAT of the Month
Meet Dory
This adorable dark tabby and white cat is Dory—a sweet girl with a slightly shy start but a heart full of love. Once she warms up, Dory’s silly side comes out, and she’ll have you smiling in no time with her playful antics and affectionate snuggles. Her weak spot or kryptonite is wet food or churus, and she will be your best friend/stalker for that.
Dory absolutely loves other kittens and cats and would thrive in a home with a feline friend to help boost her confidence and join in on the fun. She’s the perfect mix of gentle and goofy, and she’s just waiting for the right person to scoop her up and love her forever.

Meet Charlie
A Smart, Loyal Shepherd Looking for the Right Match
Charlie is a young German Shepherd with all the intelligence, loyalty, and drive that make people fall in love with the breed. She’s potty trained, knows how to “wait” patiently for her food, and absolutely loves a car ride with the windows cracked. With her people, she is incredibly sweet, affectionate, and devoted.
Like many working-breed dogs, Charlie needs to stay busy and have a job or duty...in the right home, she has the potential to truly thrive.
Charlie will need a very specific environment to set her up for success:
• Adult-only home (no young children)
• No cats or small animals
• Experienced dog owner, preferably with German Shepherd or working breed experience
• Someone committed to continuing structured training and management
Charlie has shown that she can become overwhelmed and reactive in certain situations, especially around children and cats. Because of this, she needs a calm, controlled home where her boundaries are respected and she can feel secure. She also struggles with crate anxiety when left alone and will need patience and a thoughtful plan to help her build confidence.
The good news? Charlie is highly trainable, eager to learn, and deeply bonded to her people. With the right leadership and consistency, she has all the tools to become an incredible companion.
Charlie isn’t the right fit for every home—but for the right person, she could be an amazing, devoted partner.
If you’re a German Shepherd lover who understands the breed and is ready to give Charlie the structure and guidance she needs, she just might be your perfect match. 🖤
