My story

Nubbz is an adorable male dog with lots of love to give! He came into the shelter December 12, 2024 and was around 7 months old and is now current on shots. He was adopted and now back (not his fault) as of June 13, 2025 when his owner was moving and could no take him along with them. This adorable small fella has a sweet, fun loving, and playful personality. Nubbz is curious about the world around him. He can't wait to explore and go on adventures with you. With a little time to adjust and settle in Nubbz will make someone a wonderful pup. If you're looking for a loving companion, Nubbz may be the one for you! Stop by the shelter and meet this adorable guy today. If you have another dog and are interested in meeting another potential new furry member please bring him or her to the shelter and meet on neutral ground before adopting. No need to shuffle the animals around any more than necessary. Please know that 1 mosquito bite can create heart worms and they can be fatal if not treated. It is VERY important to keep your pets healthy and protected by keeping them on a once a month heart worm and flea/tick prevention. These animals are counting on you as their owner to provide them with lots a love and the proper health care so PLEASE make sure you are aware and prepared before adopting. Owning a pet is an extra expense and responsibility but is so worth every minute and penny you invest in them. They will add lots of joy and unconditional love if given a fair chance. The shelter is open Mon.-Fri. 10-1, 2-5, Sat. 10-4. Adopt a homeless pet and save a life. If you can not adopt right now come out and volunteer and make a difference in the lives of these animals while they await their FOREVER home. In order to adopt any of our "bully breeds" there is special paper work that will need to be collected and approved prior to the adoption. We love all of our dogs and want to make sure to place our "bully babies" in homes best suited for them.

If you have any questions or would like to adopt Nubbz, please reach out to the adoption group directly. PetSmart Charities does not facilitate the adoption process. Thank you.
