JAKE
Male, 10 years old, 19 lbs
Adoption fee: $300
Jake is a sweet and friendly boy who came to us from the county shelter as a stray and is now ready to find a loving family.
Jake is good with small dogs, but his interactions with kids and cats are unknown. He is house trained on a schedule, though he may occasionally try to mark, so a belly band is helpful. He is also leash trained. Jake is a mellow guy who loves to play with his favorite toy. He will come to you for pets and love, enjoys laying in the sun, and loves car rides.
When Jake arrived, he was in very bad shape with terrible teeth (he has only two left) and terrible skin. After testing, we discovered he has hyperthyroidism. We have found the right dose of medication, and he’s on the road to recovery, feeling like a new dog!
Jake would thrive in a home with someone who is home more often than not and is looking for an easy-going companion dog to keep them company.

Penny is house-trained, leash-trained, and knows how to use a doggie door like a pro. She’s just starting to discover the joy of toys and is very food-motivated. Don’t let the fact that she only has five teeth fool you, she eats like a champ! She should be fed separately from any other dogs.
While she’s not a fan of kennels, she sleeps peacefully in a dog bed but would much rather be curled up next to you in your bed. Penny loves attention and can get a little jealous of other dogs. She’s a sensitive soul who needs a calm, stable environment and someone who’s home more often than not. Loud noises and chaos make her anxious.

APPLICATIONS CLOSED - SHADOW
Male, 2 years old, 10 lbs
Adoption fee: $470
Shadow is a lovable little guy who came to Happy Tails as an owner surrender and is now looking for a forever home where he can truly shine.
He’s great with small dogs and kids, but not a fan of cats. House training is still a work in progress, though he’s doggie door trained, kennel trained, and walks well on a leash.
Shadow can be timid at first, but he warms up fairly quickly—and once he does, he’s incredibly sweet and affectionate. He loves to climb up your chest and nuzzle into your neck for cuddles. He’s playful and fun, especially when it comes to toys that crinkle or squeak, and he enjoys chasing balls and playing with other dogs. He’s also a fearless little jumper—even with a ramp!
Shadow was born with an eye that doesn’t produce tears, so he’ll need someone who can give him eye drops throughout the day. This is a lifelong condition, but he handles it well with a little help.
He uses a slow feeder bowl, enjoys walks, and tends to bond more quickly with women. Like many young pups, he still has a mischievous streak—he loves tearing up paper and toilet paper when he gets the chance!
Shadow would thrive in a home with someone who is around most of the time, can keep up with his eye care, and ideally has another playful dog to be his buddy.

APPLICATIONS CLOSED - KASH
Male, 4 years old, 16.5 lbs
Adoption fee: $500
Kash was surrendered to Happy Tails by his previous owner and he’s looking for a forever home where he can be part of the action and soak up all the love he deserves.
Kash gets along well with other dogs, but since he’s an alpha, he’d do best with submissive canine companions. He’s good with older kids, but his compatibility with cats is unknown.
He’s house trained (though he might have the occasional accident), kennel trained, doggie door trained, and walks well on a leash.
This guy is full of charm—he loves being outside, going for walks, chasing balls, and even watching TV (yes, he reacts to dogs on the screen!). He’s happiest when he’s with his people, whether it’s riding in the car or curling up in bed at night.
Kash is still working on his manners—he might grab food from your hand or hop up on the coffee table, and he doesn’t love fast movements. He also has some separation anxiety, so he should be kenneled when left alone to avoid accidents.
Kash would thrive in a calm but active home with someone who’s around more often than not. He’d do well with or without another dog, as long as he has a loving human to call his own.
