Barkley is a 4-year-old, 50-pound Lab/Husky mix with a face you won’t forget and a personality that shines just as bright. He’s playful, social, and knows how to read a room—especially if that room has other dogs in it! He plays well, takes cues appropriately, and redirects like a champ when needed.
He’s fully housebroken, loves toys and bones, and believes couches and beds were absolutely made for dogs. He’s got that fun, happy puppy energy but with the bonus of adult-dog manners.
When heading out on the town, Barkley is a perfect passenger in the car and has excellent leash manners. Even though he settles nicely back in his kennel after an adventure, he really shines outside of the shelter environment and is looking forward to living that sweet life full-time. He might not be outwardly affectionate when you first meet him here at the shelter, but take him for an outing and he’ll soon be your best friend!
Handsome, smart, and ready to be your adventure buddy and snuggle partner, Barkley is the whole package. Come take him for a walk – and maybe even a car ride home – today!

Bella is a sweet 6-year-old, 50-pound lab mix with a calm, relaxed personality and an easygoing nature. She has been wonderful with everyone she’s met and loves being around people. Bella is also great with other dogs, especially calmer dogs that match her gentle demeanor. She’s also very easy to handle and work with.
Bella walks nicely on leash, rides well in the car, and settles easily in new environments. She is both crate trained and housebroken, making her an easy addition to a home. Her loving personality and laid-back nature make her a wonderful companion for someone looking for a loyal, well-mannered dog to share life with.
If you’re looking for a sweet, calm companion, Bella may be the perfect fit!

Daletta is a beautiful brindle who does a full body wiggle when she’s happy, which is pretty much all the time!
Car rides, walks, love, attention — Daletta is here for all of it. She would make an amazing adventure buddy for an active person or family and truly enjoys being around people. She’s affectionate, fun, and always ready to be part of whatever is going on.
At the shelter, Daletta has made a few dog friends but she is selective about her playmates. She can be a bit of a bossy girl with other dogs and likes to be in charge, so you’ll usually find her getting along with a goofy and playful pal of similar size. Because of this, she’ll need slow, thoughtful introductions and may do best either with dogs who are tolerant of her play style or as the only pet in the home.
She’s been accident free in her kennel and is generally quiet, though she may let out a little whine if she’s feeling left out — she just has such a zest for life and wants to be part of the action!
If you’re looking for a happy-go-lucky dog with lots of personality to share adventures with, come meet Daletta today!

Meet Duke! 
Duke is an 80-pound “house hippo” with a heart just as big as his paws—and he’s officially cleared for adoption! 
This gentle, laid-back boy is all about the simple things in life: comfyspots, calm companionship, and staying close to his people. He’s a true cuddle enthusiast, always ready to lean in for affection and fill both your couch and your heart.
Duke is dog-friendly, has passed his cat test, and does well on a leash and in his kennel. He’s got a sweet, easygoing nature that makes him a wonderful companion for a quieter home. While he’s very well-meaning, Duke is still working on a few manners—he may sneak a snack from the counter or investigate the trash if given the chance, and he’ll benefit from a consistent routine as he continues improving his house training.
When Duke arrived he had a few seizures, but they are being managed well with medication, and since he started his medication, we haven’t observed any seizure activity! His only goal now? Shedding a couple of extra pounds (he’s very committed to snacks, so he’ll need your support there 
).
Think of Duke as a remastered classic: low-key, affectionate, and built for quality snuggles. If you’re looking for a big, gentle soul to share a cozy life with, Duke just might be your perfectmatch. 
Ready to give Duke the loving home he deserves? Reach out to learn more about adopting him!

Meet Halo!
At 3 years old and 57 pounds, Halo is the perfect mix of fun, energy, and love. This outgoing girl never meets a stranger—she absolutely adores people and is always ready to make a new friend. Halo is dog-friendly and even worked as a temperament tester down south, helping other dogs show their best selves. She’s confident, social, and knows how to read the room when it comes to other pups.
She’s also got the basics down!
• Housebroken
• Crate trained
• Walks nicely on leash
Whether you’re looking for an adventure buddy, a walking partner, or just a happy presence in your home, Halo is your girl. She brings the fun wherever she goes—and she’s ready to bring it home to you.
Come meet Halo and see just how special she is!

Ladybird is a gentle soul with so much love to give. In new environments, she can feel a bit nervous and unsure (relatable, right?!), so she’ll benefit from a calm, understanding home that can help her build confidence while she settles in.
Ladybird enjoys having a canine companion by her side and she would likely be happy to have a dog sibling as a role model to help show her the ropes. Out on walks, she’s polite on leash and happy to stroll alongside you. She’s social and curious, often wanting to say hello to new people and fellow dogs. She’s also been good with both children and cats, though slow introductions are always recommended.
At the shelter, she’s generally quiet and settles nicely in her crate, though she may let out some classic hound-style “talking” if she’s hoping for a little extra attention- just her charming way of saying she loves being near her people.
If you’re looking for a sweet, playful companion who is ready blossom, Ladybird could be the perfect addition to your family!

Lemon
3 year old, 55 lb. female
Hound Mix
NOTE: We currently have two dogs named Lemon! If you are applying to adopt, please specify in your application whether you are interested in Lemon (hound) or Lemon (husky).
Lemon is a bright, bubbly girl with plenty of energy and personality. She’s the kind of dog who’s ready to make the most of every moment—whether that’s zooming around the yard, heading out for a walk (she’s great on leash!), or just hanging out with her people. If you’re looking for a companion to keep you active and smiling, Lemon is your girl.
She gets along well with other dogs but isn’t overly focused on them, and even on walks, she stays calm and nonreactive when passing other dogs. Lemon is just as happy doing her own thing as she is spending time with her people. Affectionate and loving, she enjoys attention and happily returns it with tail wags and plenty of love.
Lemon is still polishing up a few life skills, but with patience and consistency, she’s eager to keep learning and growing. If you’re ready for a fun-loving, affectionate, adventure-ready companion, Lemon is ready to meet you!

Meet Lou!
This beautiful 4-year-old Redbone Coonhound is truly as sweet as they come. Lou is a quiet, gentle soul with good house manners. She enjoys a peaceful environment and is happiest when she can simply relax with her favorite person.
Lou is incredibly loyal and forms deep, meaningful bonds. She connects very closely with her person and prefers a one-person home where she doesn’t have to share that special connection. Because of this, Lou will do best with a single adopter who can be her person and provide the calm, consistent companionship she thrives on.
We are currently looking for a foster-to-adopt home while we continue to learn more about Lou’s needs and help her settle into a routine that sets her up for success. This will give her the time and support she needs to truly shine and ensure the best possible match for her future.
If you’re someone who lives a quieter lifestyle and is looking for a loyal, loving companion, Lou may be the perfect match.

Meet Marcus!
Marcus is all about the simple joys in life: good food, cozy snuggles, and being close to his people. He’s very food-motivated (training is a breeze!) and loves greeting his humans with a happy smile. If you’re looking for a loyal companion who wants to curl up nearby and keep you company, Marcus is your guy.He’s fully housebroken with no accidents and does wonderfully both in the house and on walks. True to his hound roots, he’ll occasionally treat you to a classic howl, just a little reminder of his charming personality! He enjoys a shared space with other dog pals – occasionally playing, but perfectly content just hanging out too. Marcus can be anxious in the car and may feel nervous around men at first. For this reason, he has started a training program with our shelter volunteers. With patience, reassurance, and yummy treats, he continues to build confidence. His adopters should be prepared to continue this training to help him thrive in his furever home. Marcus’ ideal home would be one that provides consistency, patience, and lots of love for this gentle snuggler with a big heart. If you’re ready for a devoted companion who is happiest being near you, Marcus is ready to meet you!

Muriel is an 8-year-old bulldog mix with a stunning coat and the kind of soulful eyes that seem to understand everything you’re feeling. While she may be a little older in years, don’t let that fool you—her spirit is playful, joyful, and very much young at heart.
She’s a wonderfully easy companion at home—fully housebroken, happy to curl up for cuddles on the couch or relax quietly on her dog bed. Muriel enjoys the company of other dogs —she’ll even be the one to start the fun and invite them to play. It’s important to note, however, that she has been known to resource guard her food and toys when other dogs are around, so playtime should not involve either of those things.
If you’re looking for a sweet, low-key girl with a playful side and a heart full of love, Muriel might just be your perfect match.

Meet Oakley!
Oakley is a true hound with soulful eyes, big floppy ears, and a heart ready for adventure. She’s friendly with both people and other dogs and loves getting out to explore on walks, nose to the ground and ears flapping in the breeze.
Oakley would do best with a person or family familiar with hounds who understand their sometimes quirky nature and can help her continue to thrive. She’s had a few accidents, which are likely due to the stress of shelter life, and with consistency and patience in a home environment, she’s expected to settle in nicely.
Not a fan of the cold, Oakley prefers to stay cozy, but don’t worry, she wears her coat with style and charm! Sweet, curious, and full of classic hound personality, Oakley is ready for a home that appreciates her endearing qualities, gentle nature, and love for exploring the world one sniff at a time.

Opal is a sweet, gentle girl with a heart of gold. She may be shy when meeting new people, but once she feels safe, she blossoms into the most loving, loyal companion. Those who know her best describe her as a total sweetheart who just wants to be near her people—soaking up affection and giving endless cuddles in return.
She’s completely housebroken, well-behaved indoors, and very food-motivated, which makes her an eager learner and a great candidate for continued training and socialization.
Opal is the total package:
Quiet and gentle Completely housebroken (zero accidents!) Doesn’t chew on things she shouldn’t Zoomie enthusiast (followed by serious nap mode) Expert cuddler once she feels safe
Opal is dog selective and needs a cat-free home. For now, she would do best as the only pet, giving her the space and time to settle in at her own pace. Once she feels comfortable, her personality truly shines—gentle, affectionate, and full of quiet joy.
Her dream home is a calm, loving environment with someone who understands that trust takes time—but that the reward is a bond unlike any other.
Give Opal the chance she’s been waiting for, and you’ll gain a best friend who will love you with all her heart.

Sally is a 1-year-old Shepherd mix with a gentle heart and a sweet, sensitive soul. She is 100% dog social and truly shines around other dogs—having a canine companion helps her feel confident and secure. Sally is also cat friendly, making her an exceptionally friendly companion.
While Sally loves her four-legged friends, she’s still learning that people can be pretty great too. She can be a bit shy at first, but with patience and kindness, she continues to make wonderful progress. Once she feels comfortable, her affectionate and loving personality begins to blossom.
Sally would do best in a calm, supportive home where she can continue building confidence at her own pace—especially one with another friendly dog to show her the ropes. She’s a sweet, loyal girl just waiting for the right family to help her shine.

Trudy is a classic hound whose ears might be a world record contender! She is a sweet middle aged girl and we’re pretty sure her tail hasn’t stopped wagging since she arrived at our shelter.
She is happy to meet people of all ages as well as other dogs. She settles nicely in her kennel, is great on leash walks, and seems to enjoy going for car rides. She even took a trip to Home Depot where she gladly accepted pets from admirers!
Overall Trudy is a calm and confident dog who is ready to take advantage of all the love her humans have to give. If Trudy sounds like a good match for you, she’ll be waiting to greet you with plenty of tail wags!

Zoe is a beautiful, sweet girl who is house trained and crate trained. She is super athletic, agile & smart! She loves to be outside playing fetch or going on long walks but settles nicely inside for down time and cuddling.
She is incredibly devoted & loyal to her people. When she sees someone that she loves, her little nub tail doesn’t stop wagging and all she wants to do is for you to say hi to her and welcome her into your lap. Once you have her trust, there is no turning back! She is loyal and will always greet you with a smile on her face.
Zoe was insecure about meeting new people when she first arrived at Lighthouse. She has gotten much more confident with strangers but her forever family should still be considerate and aware of her feelings when she meets someone new.
Training
Zoe has been to professional training so she knows commands such as sit, down, stay, come and also knows some fun ones like how to give a high five. She's a happy girl when she gets to show off her tricks & quickly learns new ones.
Other Dogs
Zoe has made a lot of dog friends at Lighthouse (loves to play chase!) but it's all on her own terms - she appreciates a slow intro and she will let the other dogs know that she is the queen so she plays best with dogs who accept corrections.
Cats
Zoe has lived with a cat before but she does chase. If she were to live with a cat, they would need to be very dog-savvy.

Marshall is an overgrown 8-month-old puppy with the most beautiful, striking markings you’ve ever seen. He’s already 58 pounds and still growing—likely to be around 65-70 pounds when fully grown. This sweet boy has had a rough start in life, but despite it all, he’s ready to find a family to love him.
Marshall was found at an abandoned trailer when he was about three months old, along with his brother, who later disappeared. The people who had been feeding him and the other dog decided to place him in a 10×10 kennel to keep him from getting lost or killed by a predator. He remained in the kennel for about three months, receiving food but little else, until he was taken to a foster home.
He moved into his foster home at around 6 months old, where he received more attention but still didn’t experience the comforts of a real home. He was still out in a kennel with other dogs, but not in a home environment. Now, at Lighthouse Animal Shelter, he’s making incredible progress and showing just how special he is!
Marshall loves other dogs and thrives in their company. He’s playful, energetic, and eager to learn. While he’s still a bit mouthy when he plays—typical puppy behavior—he responds well to corrections and guidance. He’s fairly well crate-trained but could use a little more consistency. With time, patience, and love, he’ll blossom into the amazing companion he’s meant to be.
Marshall is truly a diamond in the rough—a dog with endless potential who just needs the right person to help him shine. Could that be you? Come meet him and see for yourself—this sweet pup is ready to find his forever home!

Our dog adoption program focuses on adult & senior dogs.
We do not have puppies or small dogs.
Where can I adopt a puppy or small dog?
Visit petfinder.com or adoptapet.com. Both sites allow you to filter your search by age, breed, size, etc. Adoptable dogs who match what you’re looking for will pop up.
Cole is looking for his next new best pal! He has a fun energy level and seems to feed off of whatever the human he is with wants to do. Want to play? He will play. Want to bring him in? He will go right inside. Want to cuddle? He will plop right in your lap for all the lovin’ he can soak in!
Cole would make a great companion for someone looking for a copilot for all their adventures but wanting a snuggle buddy at night.
We assume this boy is house-trained as we’ve never had to clean up after him and he also does very well in a crate! Even though he has the biggest, goofiest personality, Cole is quiet all day unless he can hear that his favorite dog walker is at the shelter!
Cole loves every human that he meets but would be a little too much energy for small kiddos. He can be jumpy when he’s excited to see his people.

Cole is dog selective - he has successfully been on walks with other dogs after a slow introduction.

Say Hello to Spot – The Handsome Hiking Buddy!
Spot is as sweet as they come! With his stunning red coat and soulful eyes, this good-looking pup is ready to charm his way into your heart (and maybe your favorite hiking trail, too!).He’s affectionate, fun-loving, and always up for a game of fetch or tug with his favorite rope toy. Spot is housebroken, quiet in his crate, and walks like a gentleman on leash – totally non-reactive to other dogs on the go.
Spot has enjoyed playtime with other dogs who match his vibe, but he’s still figuring out the whole “dog play” thing, so a good personality fit is key. With the right doggy pal (or just his humans!), he’s golden.
If you’re looking for a loyal adventure buddy who also gives top-tier snuggles, Spot might just be your perfect match!

Drake already knows how to sit and is very food motivated, which makes training both fun and rewarding. And don’t let his size fool you—he’s surprisingly fast when he gets going!
Drake loves attention, companionship, and sharing his gentle, happy nature with everyone he meets. If you’re looking for a loving, social companion who’s as kind as he is charming, Drake may be your perfect match

Monty is a big love bug who thrives on affection! He adores being close to people, always seeking out pets and cuddles from our volunteers. His happy, affectionate personality makes him a joy to be around.
Previously, Monty lived in a home with two other dogs—one male and one female. While he did well in a home setting, there was tension and jealousy between him and the older resident male, leading to several altercations. Because of this, we recommend Monty either be the only dog in his new home or be placed with a compatible female dog. He has done well with female dogs in the past and continues to enjoy their company in our play yard.
Monty has even made a new friend at the shelter—Ellen, who is also available for adoption! He loves a fun game of chase, but his favorite activity is a polite round of tug.
Monty is leash reactive, so he’ll need some training if he’ll be in a high-traffic area. With the right guidance, he’ll be a fantastic companion for someone looking for a loyal and affectionate best friend.
Could Monty be your perfect match? Come meet him and find out!
