We took one look at Kentucky girl Noa's beautiful face and were immediately smitten! Those eyes!
If you scroll through her pictures, we included the video that we were sent by the shelter worker in Kentucky where Noa is from. We knew we had to have her!

Somehow both the most perfect smile and the most adorable pout! How can anyone resist?

This beautiful 1-year-old girl has the cutest face, a sleek black coat, and the sweetest little white spot on her forehead that looks like someone gave her a tiny kiss of paint. She's adaptable, affectionate, and has that perfect mix of playful young-dog energy and loving companionship.

After being surrendered by her previous owner, who simply said they "could not care for her", Noa is looking for a fresh start with a family who will love her the way she deserves. Despite all the changes in her life, she's remained incredibly sweet and trusting. She gets along wonderfully with other dogs, does great with kids, and seems happiest when she's simply near her people.

Whether she's joining in on playtime, going for walks, or curling up nearby for a nap, Noa has a sweet presence that makes you feel instantly connected to her.

She doesn't need anything fancy - just kindness, stability, and someone willing to give her the forever home she's been waiting for.

Noa is ready to love with her whole heart. All she needs now is someone to love her back. Come and meet her, we bet you will find her as irresistible as we do!

Noa's adoption fee is $300. This animal is spayed, up to date on core vaccines, and Heartworm negative.

The Feist is a small to medium sized hunting dog known for its intelligence, endurance, and agility. Originally bred in the southern United States for hunting squirrels and other small game, the Feist is highly energetic and has a strong prey drive. With a sleek coat and a variety of colors, this breed is beloved for its friendly and loyal nature, making it a great companion for active individuals or families.

The mixed breed dogs, often referred to as mutts, are a diverse and unique group with a blend of different characteristics from various purebred dog breeds. These dogs come from a mixture of lineages, resulting in a wide range of sizes, coat types, and temperaments. While each mixed breed dog is distinct in its own right, they are known for their resilience, adaptability, and often have fewer health issues compared to purebred dogs due to their genetic diversity. Mixed breed dogs make wonderful companions for families looking for a loyal and one-of-a-kind pet.
