When you adopt from a no-kill shelter, you save two lives. The animal you adopt and the one that replaces them.

 

Pet Spotlight

 Meet Maxine


Maxine is a 2.5 year old Pit Bull Terrier that is looking for a family to call her own. While Maxine may smile on the outside, she’s been quite stressed and sad since her owners never came for her after she was found as a stray back in July. She’s an energetic love bug that just needs someone willing to take a chance on her and teach her some manners. Maxine would do best in an experienced dog home with older children and a fenced yard. Being a Pittie, she hardly gets a second look from potential adopters. Maxine is eagerly waiting for someone to come and take a chance loving her!
