Missed Connections

Looking for love? So are they.

Sometimes love is right in front of you … and you just miss the connection. The dogs on this page are part of our Missed Connections club – a group of our most patient pups who’ve been waiting longer than others to find their soulmate. These dogs are full of personality, love and potential – and they can’t wait to share their lives with someone special. Take a closer look – they could be your perfect match!

Special adoption fee: $45. A lifetime of love: Priceless.
