Story
*Experienced dog owners only! This girl was rescued from a backyard breeder situation and is still VERY frightened. We are hoping to have a long-term foster home work with her to make her more comfortable with people and gradually become more friendly. She is NOT house or crate trained and will have accidents until you can work with her more. If you have another dog in the home that is trained, it may help progress Celica's care quicker. If you think you have the time and energy it will take to rehabilitate this beautiful girl, please fill out a foster application. Celica is a beautiful but timid gal. She will need someone with patience to let her warm up to you. She was part of a group of dogs that were confiscated due to a backyard breeding situation, so she has not had much postitive human contact. ##2344057##

Story
Hello there, my name is Cisco! I’m a lively ball of energy who absolutely loves a good run and the thrill of adventure. I’m incredibly loyal and eager to devote myself to the right person, but I’ll need a strong and confident leader to guide me. With my mix of shepherd, border collie, and black lab heritage, I’m not just smart—I’m a quick learner, too.I already know commands like sit, down, wait, and come (though I might get a little distracted when I’m out exploring!). I adore tummy rubs and snuggling is one of my specialties—I’m great company for cozy evenings. You can trust me to use the dog door and behave like a gentleman in the house. I’ll let you know when strangers are around with my bark, and while I can be a bit particular about my dog friends, I’m truly dedicated to finding my forever family. Are you ready to share a lifetime of love and adventure with me? If so, submit your application to meet me—let’s start our journey together! ##1429742##
