This Little Girl is just that, not too big and not too small at 36 lbs. What a sweetheart she is, a little shy at first but then warms up and wants to be your buddy and play fetch with a ball. She is young, trainable and well mannered. If you're looking for an adorable petite lab mix, this little girl is for you! Observations and photos by volunteer, Susie Shaffer 1-13-24

Story
This gentleman, Old Man Zeus, is as handsome as they come with a heart to match. Don't let the "Old Man" fool you - Zeus is only 6 years old and is full of love and enjoys lounging in the sunshine with a good back rub on the grass, and running and playing too! His favorite place is by his human's side, showering them with doggy affection. Zeus thrives in a loving home environment and would do best in a family setting where he can be by your side. Is there room on your couch (and in your heart) for this gentle giant? Come meet Zeus today! Observations and photos by Kristy & Parker Verant 3-28-24 More volunteer info: Birch is a super friendly, calm and playful but not overly energetic. He just enjoyed getting out with us in the sunshine and fresh air for some zoomies. Birch really enjoys playing fetch, is treat motivated, and did his bathroom business outside so is a good sign that he might be house broken already. He has a beautiful Merle (dappled) coat of fur that is very unique and beautiful eyes that will melt your heart. Observations and photos by volunteers Angela and Rilee Thurber, 12-19-23 Zeus loves to give you Paw Hugs. He does not like being left alone. So he will love to be with you for your daily activities.
