Basil
Dogs – Let's do a meet and greet
Cats – No thank you
Kids – Yes, 8+
If Basil had a love language, it would be adventure followed by snacks. She's bold, bright, and bursting with personality. She'll chase a flirt pole like an Olympic athlete, greet the day with a full-body wiggle, and keep you laughing with her big-energy goofball antics.
Basil is a superstar learner! She knows sit, down, shake, and even jump into your arms on cue. She's working on even more tricks and could easily become a titled trick dog. She's housebroken, crate trained, and toy obsessed, and she shines with people who give her time to settle and show her full self.
Basil is looking for a home that appreciates her playful personality and love of learning, someone who will celebrate all the things that make her special. Come meet her during adoption hours or stop by to say hello. She's ready to bring a whole lot of love (and some impressive tricks) into your life!

Not Quite Ready To Adopt?
You can make an immeasurable impact by opening your home and your heart to an animal in need. Fostering is a great opportunity to introduce a pet into your home without making a lifelong commitment. Many of our foster humans end up adopting their fostered animals, but many also choose to just provide the temporary shelter and love our animals need to get through a trying time.
