Story
Soulful Andy is that steady companion you've been looking for! Good on leash and gentle of heart, he makes it easy to want to spend your time hanging out with him. He is a fan of treats and pats, but he is not a fan of cats - he finds them positively terrifying! Before you think he's all couch potato, he does loosen up and show a playful side with his human friends. At this time, he is not interested in doggie friends. ***Our pups don't tell us who their parents are - BREED is a GUESS*** ~  Est DOB: Jul 2021  ~  Est weight:  54#  ~  Adoption details/application:  calhouncountyhs.blogspot.com/p/adopt.htmlNovember 1, 2024, 11:11 pm

Story
Smiley, squatty Maverick wants to dazzle you with his charm. With his happy grin, adorable head tilt, and friendly happy nature, he is sure to succeed! Mav loves soaking in the sun with his favorite people, whether exploring a yard or exploring new places on walks. He is...mostly...good on leash, though sometimes the exciting world around him is a bit distracting ('Squirrel!'). You can get his attention back with some tasty treats, and he'll quickly remember that he knows to walk nice, and also knows sit. He's a people-oriented fellow who isn't wanting to share his space with other animals.   ***Our pups don't tell us who their parents are - BREED is a GUESS*** ~  Est DOB:  Sep 2020 ~  Intake weight:  60#  ~  Adoption details:  calhouncountyhs.blogspot.com/p/adopt.html  November 1, 2024, 11:11 pm

Story
Candy has a unique look - unless you count her nearly identical sisters! These distinctive girls have ears the better to hear you with and tails that act like rudders when they run - and they are built to run, athletic and active. Intelligent and sensitive, the girls are overwhelmed at the confusing shelter and need time to understand new situations. Having been abandoned and on their own, they are just cautious like that. Candy is a bit more of a free thinker than her sisters. She knows what she wants, and while mostly she wants treats, she also wants some independence. She is the last one to learn 'sit' (didn't wanna!), but does walk nicely on leash and crates up when asked. She is more ready to explore and do her thing. Still, she wants to enter into a fair relationship with new people who are respectful and looking for a partner, not a baby. She has struggled to make new dog friends at the shelter, mainly because of the environment - she has been fine in less stressful situations.  ***Our pups don't tell us who their parents are - BREED is a GUESS***  ~  Est DOB:  May 2022 ~  Intake weight:  48# ~  Adoption details:  calhouncountyhs.blogspot.com/p/adopt.htmlNovember 1, 2024, 11:11 pm

Story
Barbie truly believes that girls just wanna have fun! She loves to play with her siblings and loves to play in water. She isn't only fun-loving Barbie, though. She also has her smarts. She does well crated, walks on leash, and knows sit. She's also clever enough to climb chain link, so needs a solid fence. ***Our pups don't tell us who their parents are - BREED is a GUESS*** ~ Est DOB: Feb 2023~ Est weight: 55# ~ Adoption details: calhouncountyhs.blogspot.com/p/adopt.htmlJanuary 22, 2025, 7:07 pm

Story
Who says you can't have the best of both worlds? Cosmo is a versatile boy, playful and silly and in love with toys. On the flip side, he can also hang out by himself and let you get stuff done while he takes care of yard patrol. He enjoys people and will settle in for a good belly rub session. He takes his yard patrol seriously, though, and is not compatible with other critters.    ***Our pups don't tell us who their parents are - BREED is a GUESS*** ~  Est DOB:  Jul 2018 ~  Est weight:  43#  ~  Adoption details:  calhouncountyhs.blogspot.com/p/adopt.html  November 1, 2024, 11:11 pm

Getrude wants to be a big part of your life! She is a social butterfly and embraces all that life offers - treats, toys, runs in the yard and romps with doggie friends. Use treats to train her all the things, then take her to all the things - as long as they are fun!  ***Our pups don't tell us who their parents are - BREED is a GUESS*** ~  Est DOB:  Jan 2024 ~  Est weight:  35#  ~  Adoption details:  calhouncountyhs.blogspot.com/p/adopt.htmlNovember 1, 2024, 11:11 pm
