Story
Meet Courage Courage is settling beautifully into foster life, and the best word for him right now is steady. In the evenings, he’s all about the loveseat. He’ll curl up next to his person or snuggle in with his foster siblings like he’s always belonged there. He’s not chaotic. He’s not demanding. He just wants to be close. He’s discovered the joy of stuffies — squirrel, dragon, alligator — and while another dog in the house may immediately “destroy and conquer,” Courage prefers the slow, thoughtful approach. He’ll proudly carry his toy around before gently dismantling it piece by piece. It’s very on brand. He’s playful, but he’s also content to simply follow you downstairs while you do laundry and lay nearby, keeping quiet company. That’s his superpower — presence. He just wants to be where you are. Crate time has turned into a little strategy game. He knows exactly what’s happening and has decided he prefers a bit of privacy before going in for his treat. Smart boy. The basics: *Dog-friendly *Chill in the evenings *Loves toys *Crate trained *Loyal shadow energy **On heartworm medication — treatment fully covered by ECAC until complete Courage isn’t flashy. He’s the kind of dog who builds a bond slowly and then gives you his whole heart. If you’re looking for a calm, affectionate companion who just wants to be part of your everyday life, this is your guy.

Story
We got joey when he was around 6 months old from a farm. He had been living in a barn. He is very active, playful, patient with kids, and handles other dogs. He does run the fence and bark as passerbys, but is not aggressive nor has ever bit anyone. We recently brought out second baby home and he is showing more anxious/stressed behaviors such as chewing pacifiers and pump parts, getting on the countertops/table to get food left out, getting into bathroom trash, whining every night, and breaking down or jumping the gait when he no longer wants to be or is too anxious to be locked up. We have a small area for him and our other small dogs we locked them in at night and when we are gone.
