Meet Deacon! He is a 3-month-old male pit-bull mix. He shares his foster home with adult dogs and cats. Deacon is 95% house trained (5% using training pads) and does well day/night in the crate. He loves his chew toys, the outdoors and playing with his foster sibling. Deacon is an energetic little pup who enjoys his walks and who loves everyone he meets. He knows basic commands as sit, come and the magic word no. Deacon is food motivated and eager to please. Deacon has a non-stop tail waggle, is affectionate, confident and loves to snuggle near you. Is Deacon the right family companion for you?

Della is a 6 year old small lab mix around 30lbs. She is a really great, easy dog that's very obedient and sweet. Before she was surrendered to our rescue, Della spent most of her life outside in a pen by herself and wasn't fed consistenly or shown much love. Surprisingly, she is potty trained, crate trained, great on a leash, and knows basic commands. She's great with dogs, cats and kids. Della loves to go on walks and sleep on the couch. She also enjoys a good dog toy. Della is very chill and just happy to be inside enjoying the good life like a dog should. It's like she knew all along how to be a wonderful dog but just needed the chance to show someone. Della has a lot of life left in her and can't wait to live the best years with her furever family.

Meet Cherokee! She came to us from an American Indian reservation along with her three siblings. She did not have much, if any human interaction before coming into rescue. Cherokee is still quite scared of humans but is making progress every day. She loves other dogs and even cats! She is playful when she feels comfortable enough to let herself have a good time. She also is very smart and has learned the routine of going outside and into the crate like a pro. She is the perfect size at about 30lbs. Her mother was a Jack Russell, and her father is a husky. She is now 9 months old. Cherokee would do best in a home with another dog and a home with humans who are willing to give her the time she needs to adjust to life as part of a family.

​Keto is a spunky 2-year-old Australian kelpie mix (or so we think!) who was originally found as a stray near Winthrop University. Keto is mostly house trained, and he does well in the crate. He’s been great around young children, as well as other dogs. Keto would do best with an active owner willing to give him regular exercise. At just 25 lbs, he’s the perfect size travel companion. Could Keto be the right match for you?!

Meet Comet, a 3-month-old hound mix. He is a mellow little pup. His perfect day entails eating, sleeping, playing and more eating. He is doing great with his crate training and sleeps through the night. Comet loves anyone that will give him a belly rub and seems very interested in his big furry foster brothers, trailing behind them in the yard. He would make a great addition to a family with or without puppy experience.

Mary Jane is a three year old husky mix who, if she could speak, would have quite a story to tell. At a little less than a year old, Mary Jane got loose at the home of her family, while living outside, and was hit by a car. Her previous owners came home to find her pulling herself, by her front paws, back to the house while dragging the back half of her body. While her owners decided the “humane” thing to do would be to “put her out of her misery”, a Halfway There volunteer intervened immediately and raced her to the emergency vet. That decision would literally save Mary Jane’s life. 

After being initially diagnosed with a broken leg and fractured pelvis, Mary Jane underwent surgery and was brought into a loving foster home to recuperate. After being in foster care a short time, it was realized that Mary Jane was showing some concerning signs that her injury may be more severe than initially diagnosed. She had not regained proper bladder and bowel control, and after a week was not yet up and walking. After another thorough exam and full body xrays (emergency vet had only taken partial images), a much more severe injury was revealed. Mary Jane had sustained a broken back and significant nerve damage when she had been hit by the car. Her future uncertain, Mary Jane’s foster family was determined to not give up on her and support her recovery. They believed that with faith, love, and patience, Mary Jane would have a good quality of life and be able to be considered healthy and adoptable. 

Mary Jane’s foster family continued to provide the love and care she needed to recover, and after several more weeks it was a true miracle that Mary Jane was able to walk again. As a matter of fact, two years after she has come into foster care, Mary Jane has regained the ability to run, jump, and play just like every other dog. Aside from a slight limp, this little lady is the life of the party. She loves playing tug of war with toys and running around the yard with her foster siblings. Mary Jane enjoys going to the dog park, and she has truly never met a stranger. Even the kitties in her current foster home give her “two paws up.” Although Mary Jane’s recovery has been remarkable, she has not regained control of her bowels or bladder. To compensate for this, Mary Jane does need to wear diapers. She doesn’t mind at all though, and is patient and trusting of everyone, making her condition relatively easy to manage. 

After more than two years in foster care, Mary Jane is looking to find her perfect forever family. She is a sweet and loving soul, who longs to be with people and truly appreciates every moment of life she has been given. Although she is adored and loved by the entire Halfway There family, it is our dream that Mary Jane will find her own home, complete with people who understand her needs and just how special she truly is. ​
