Story
Hi there! My name is Bruce! I am just about 1.5 years old, neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped! I am the most bouncy pup you will ever meet. I was found as a stray so not much is known about the life I lived before, some say I might have been raised by bunnies in a past life. I love to hang out with similar size/little dogs and would love for you to bring your other pups in to see if we'd be a good match! I do not get along with larger dogs. I am incredibly sweet and loyal, I love to Velcro to your legs and be with you as much as I can. I am so excited to spend the Howlidays with you! Come meet me at Heidi's Village today!

Story
Fancy meeting you here! My name is Christopher. I am almost 2 years old. Fun fact about me is I am 34% German Shepard, 32% Boxer, 21% Husky, and 11% Super Mutt! My husky side definitely comes out when it is play time, I am SUPER vocal and love to make all the noises I possibly can. I love my people once I get to know them, I am extremely loyal. I prefer a home where I can continue my training and will go slow with me with introducing me to new people and new situations. I would love a home with another furry friend, bring them by to see if we get along for a playdate! I hope you are my perfect match!

Story
Hi there! My name is Sasha, although I have so many different nicknames, and you'll know why once you get to meet me! I am a special German Shepherd/Malinois mix with a unique disability. My back legs stick out straight! I can move around, walk, and run just fine, I also have no issues using the bathroom on my own. My jumping days are behind me though and I am not afraid to still try. I am looking for a experienced owner not only behaviorally but medically as well. I need to be the only dog in the home and recommended to live with adults only. I would love someone who sees me for the great, active, and maybe a little crazy girl that I am. I can't wait to meet you at Heidi's Village today!

Story
Hello! My name is Sundancer or you can call me Sunny D! I am a Shar Pei Pitbull mix around 3 years old. I am the sweetest girl you would ever want to meet! I do have a little bit of sensitive skin and allergy season is not my favorite, the team here can tell you more about the food I need to eat and what my care in home for my allergies will look like! While I have not made other furry friends here yet, you can bring your dog in when you meet me to see if we'd be a great match. I do not get along with cats though. I love my long walks and I would make the best hiking buddy. I can't wait to meet you at Heidi's Village today!

Story
This sweet boy, Myers, was hanging out in a neighborhood in Gold Canyon, AZ, looking defeated as he sat on someone's front porch waiting for someone to help him. He had gotten into some cactus, poor guy! When he got to the shelter, he was friendly with everyone and let them take the cactus spines off of him. They said that he appeared to have been in the desert for awhile. He did not have a tag and wasn't chipped. Here's what shelter staff had to say about him: "This boy is AWESOME. Super sweet, really easy to walk. Totally non reactive to dogs on walks and at the fence even in the noisy kennel area. He sits, shakes and will high five with both paws, takes treats gently and is just a complete love. Seems housebroken doesn't mark on anything in our office etc." When asked how he did in play group, shelter staff responded "he did great! He plays with the female pups and was just chill with the other dogs. Myers is a real catch, a gentle giant, and hopes you will ask to meet him soon!
