Story
Zeek is a two-year-old Boxer mix who is searching for his forever home. He came to us as a stray and, sadly, was never reclaimed—but that just means he’s ready to begin a new chapter with a family of his own. Zeek is an outgoing, social boy who loves spending time with staff and volunteers. He loves to wiggle and gets so excited to spend time with staff and volunteers. He enjoys long walks, taking his time to sniff and explore the world around him. Zeek does well with other dogs and especially thrives with female companions, happily offering playful bows and enjoying their company. Playful, affectionate, and full of life, Zeek is eager to share his love and energy with a family who will give him the happy ending he deserves. Her adoption fee is $200, which includes her vaccines, fecal exam, deworming, current heartworm/flea prevention, heartworm test, registered microchip, and spay. She is already fixed!

Story
Bodie (also known as Brownie) is a 1-year-old Boxer/Pittie mix with a zest for life and a heart full of love! Weighing around 40 pounds, this energetic pup is always ready for action and still has plenty of playful puppy energy to burn. He absolutely loves running around in the yard, playing with his toys, and making new canine friends. Bodie thrives in the company of other dogs and has become quite the social butterfly at Hounds Town, never failing to get the whole room moving with his infectious enthusiasm. Because of his high-energy nature, Bodie would do best in a home with kids 10 and older who can keep up with his playful spirit. A home without cats is preferred.

Story
Roman: The Big Lug Looking for a Soft Place to Land Hi. I am Roman. I am a 65 pound Boxer mix with the kind of face that makes people smile even before I do anything. I am a big soft lug who wants a porch, a sofa, and a human who likes slow pats on the head. My energy is just right. I can hang out, go for a walk, sniff around the yard, then come inside and settle next to you. I walk well on a leash. I do not make things hard. I like being easy. I dont want any ruckus. I get along with male and female dogs. I am a gentleman until someone tries to boss me around. I do not start trouble, but I also do not let pushy dogs run the show. I usually get along best with female dogs. Having said that, I have a rescue buddy (male) here and we do great together. We move at the same pace. We enjoy the same simple things. So I guess, like you humans, it's if our personalities get along! People say I am the kind of dog who makes life feel calmer. I am not loud. I am not clingy. I am just present. Sit with me for two minutes and you will get it. I am the dog who leans into your leg and lets out a long breath. I make the world feel lighter. If you want a sweet older boy who loves porch time, couch time, and just being near you, I am your guy. I am ready for my home. Apply to foster or adopt me and let’s make some quiet, good memories together.   ##2537421##

She loves to go on walks with all her volunteer friends. She thinks she's a lap dog too, and it's hard to tell that sweet face no! Mookie's favorite outdoor activities include sunbathing and taking naps in the pool. Mookie has been diagnosed with arthritis and hypothyroidism. She is on meds for both and seems to be doing well! She is working on losing some weight to help with the arthritis, too. Mookie does prefer to be the only dog in the home.

Story
Marlo is 4 years old and guessed to be a Saint Bernard/ Pit mix. This beautiful girl has been at WCHS for over 2 years. She's all muscle (weighing in around 75lbs) and goofy, loving eyes. While some might find her looks to be intimidating, this girl could not be sweeter. The shelter staff adore this girl and she gives just as much love in return.Not only is Marlo loving, she is very energetic and active. She loves walks and does great with her harness. She is a big fan of our fenced outdoor pens where she can run and play with toys. Speaking of toys, Marlo LOVES balls: tennis balls, basketball-sized balls, giant indestruct-a-balls. You name it, she's playing soccer with it. She does need some training with play time as she can get too excited when you go to grab the toy and will try to grab it at the same time as you. She will gently jump up onto you for love and to give kisses, too. Sometimes she'll even climb onto your lap to snuggle. Marlo needs an active and strong leader who can help her be her best! She is looking for a home without cats or dogs. She would do best with older children as she is a big strong girl who loves to jump and run. Are you looking for an active dog with lots of love to give? Marlo would love to come home with you!

Her favorite toys are giant rope toys and hard chew bones. She loves to run in our fenced outdoor pens and enjoys a good walk with her favorite people. Queenie would do best in a home without other dogs or cats. She would do best with no young kids. For allergies, Queenie is on a fish-based sensitive skin and stomach diet.
