Story
This is Igris. He is not sure how he got in this situation. One day he was chatting with his buddies and the next he found himself in a new place. Igris is a smart guy who just needs a little bit of encouragement to be a best boy. He would do best in a home with no cats and a family who will help reinforce the things he has learned. Igris is a bit slow to warm up to new people and places and has a great deal of energy to burn (both physical and mental). He will benefit from seeing a trainer to give you both some tools for a happy life and cool adventures together. Getting a dog is a long term commitment which begins in steps. Igris will take 3 days to begin to settle into a new home with new people and 3 weeks to start to feel like the home is his. It may take 3 months for your relationship to begin to feel like the real thing. It all starts with a meeting and a pup cup...are you ready to make a long term commitment? Igris is!

Story
Meet Zac – The Sweetest Soul You'll Ever Earn the Trust Of ❤️Zac is a goofy, loving, playful puppy with a heart as big as his paws. His favorite things are romping around with other dogs, curling up in a cozy bed, and happily chewing on his favorite toys. Like any puppy, he's still learning his manners; and he's making wonderful progress every day.What makes Zac truly special is how far he's come.When Zac arrived at Boxers and Buddies, the world was a frightening place. He had spent his entire life isolated in the home where he was born and had never experienced the outside world. Everything was unfamiliar, and everyone was scary. For the first two weeks in foster care, he hid behind the fireplace, too afraid to come out.Then something amazing happened.His foster dog siblings showed him that life could be fun. Little by little, Zac found the courage to explore, to play, and eventually to trust. Today, he enjoys off-leash hikes, greets visitors with curiosity, and has become a happy, affectionate companion to the people he knows and loves.Zac is still discovering that the world is a safe place, and every new experience helps him grow. He'll thrive in a patient, understanding home that will let him move at his own pace. If you're willing to give him the time he needs, you'll be rewarded with an incredibly loyal best friend who will love you with his whole heart.Some dogs are easy to love at first sight. Zac is the kind of dog whose love is earned; but once you've earned it, it's truly unforgettable.If you have a gentle heart, another friendly dog would be a wonderful bonus, and you're looking for a companion whose transformation will be one of the most rewarding experiences of your life, Zac is waiting to meet you.We require professional obedience training from a certified trainer for ALL adoptions.

Freddy is a 7-year-old, 55-pound Border Collie looking for a home where he can thrive. True to his breed, he loves to play—especially with his Jolly Ball—but he's also happy to spend most of the day relaxing. He's never been destructive, rides well in the car, and is an easy companion to have around.Freddy is seeking an adult-only home with no children, cats, or small dogs due to his herding instincts and nipping behaviors around children. He has never nipped an adult. He does well with other large dogs and has never shown dominant behaviors.Freddy would thrive in a calm home where he can enjoy playtime, companionship, and plenty of love. In return, he'll be a loyal, affectionate companion.

Story
This is Akila... One of the absolute best dogs I've ever been around. Learns quickly. She's around a year and a half old, very sweet and listens well. I got her about 2 months ago. All of her shots except one are up to date, the rest are due in November, so probably just getting all done at once would be best. She's house trained, crate trained, and loves car rides and going on walks. Walks well on a leash, doesn't pull. She's a bit nervous around most men, but not aggressive, likes women and children, but she doesn't try running up to them, and is very gentle with small children and babies. And is extremely gentle taking treats from your hand... Even bacon!!! Likes well mannered dogs that are not aggressive...now, she does get excited to see them, but not overly excited. She needs a home where she can have more time to have fun. I can meet at Hallelujah junction or Sun Valley to see if someone is a good fit. The adoption fee may be negotiable until I get her shots updated.

Penny is active and affectionate. She likes men more than woman for some reason. Shes very protective, and I believe jealous of the other dog (which she grew up with). She constantly snaps & fights with my older dog, and we just can'tmake her stop... Hate to give her up, but afraid she will severely injure the older dog.She needs to be the ONLY dog ..
