Story
Meet Winnie, a 5-months-old puppy Shepherd mix. Found abandoned in the dersert, thrown into a backyard, emaciated, with burnt feet and wounds on her legs. Winnie is very playful, loving, affectionate, and loyal pup. She likes to cuddle and is an absolute lap dog. She likes to play with toys, preferably balls, and ropes. She loves the water and will go for a splash in the pool. She likes to follow you around and has shown the ability to listen and learn commands. With proper and early training, this pup can learn anything. She is crate and potty trained. She sits, shakes and wait for "ok" when is time to eat her food. She is a great companion, especially when you go for runs or a bike ride. She knows basic commands sit, stay, lay down, shake and no. We are looking for a good home who will take care of Winnie properly for the rest of her life. Please don't hesitate to reach out, we do meet and greets. We are an independent rescue; adoption fee is to help us with spay surgery.

Story
Meet Max! He is looking for his new family to love him, play with him, and make sure he’s eating good food! He is a good boy who is very friendly with his family. He can be a little timid when he meets new people, but after you’ve introduced them and he knows they’re safe, he loves them! Max originally came from China as a rescue from the meat festival. He is 5 years old and he’s been in his current home since he was 4 months old. Sadly, we are moving to a new place that doesn’t allow dogs. He has lived with cats his whole life. He is not overly excited to hang out with cats, but he gets along with them just fine. He is not super affectionate- meaning he is not a lap dog. He does like to sit next to you, but he doesn’t like to cuddle. He doesn’t get mad, he just gets up. He likes to sleep in bed with his owner. He loves walks, watching squirrels, and going on walks. He’s potty trained and would like a back yard. He’s never bitten anyone. He’s a sweet, good boy!

Story
Hello my human friends! My name is Prancer and I’m a 6 month year old puppy looking for my forever home. My foster dad found me abandoned and dehydrated on the side of the road. I’ve really enjoyed being indoors and comfortable instead of out on that hot road. You might be wondering why they call me Prancer, it’s because I love to hop around my home like Santa’s reindeer. Being a puppy, I have so much energy to expend and love playing with my squeak and stuffed toys. I hope you’ll have many chew toys ready to engage me in if I am in one of these playful moods. Please Read Full Bio Before Proceeding *[Please apply for him at www.animalcarezone.org/prancer]* I spend 7 hours a day just relaxing with my foster siblings in the living room while my foster dad is away at work. He takes me to explore the outside world when he gets home, which I really enjoy. Sometimes when I see him for the first time after so long, I get very excited and can’t control my excitement, this can lead to small peeing accidents. Hehe. I wanted to let you know about a condition I have called hydrocephalus. It means there is an excessive amount of fluid in my brain. No wonder when I look in the mirror my forehead looks a bit larger and why my eye look more squinted than normal. My vet said that I am "functional", so that's a good sign. We are still figuring out what it means for the future. My foster dad tells me that this means I am a special kid who just requires a bit more patience and time as I learn things. I know with some time and patience I will get better at things like leash walking, recall, commands and house-training. Dad tells me I am the best boy and the most affectionate puppy he has ever met. I do love giving humans kisses and receiving them back. I am still getting used to the crate, and sometimes get a little sad when I can’t be around my humans. When I'm out in the living room, I am a good boy and not destructive. I’ve been on a car ride a few times with my foster dad and I’ve really enjoyed just sitting in someone’s lap and watching the sights fly by. My ideal home is with someone who has time and energy to dedicate to me, since I’m still a puppy and I have a lot to learn! I require an extra bit of patience and preparation due to my special needs but in return I will provide endless cuddles and kisses. Will you be my furever home?

Story
*If you are interested in Whiskey please fill out an application at www.animalcarezone.org/whiskey or e-mail us as animalcarezone@gmail.com. Do not msg on Pet Finder, we will not see it.* Location: Whiskey is located in California, USA. Out of state applicants in Washington, Arizona, Nevada and Utah are also considered. Applications from Vancouver, B.C, Canada will also considered. Please Read Full Bio Before Proceeding Need something strong, smooth and consistent in your life? Whiskey might be just what you are thirsty for! I’m a 1 year old Husky mix with zest for life. But not too much zest. Juuuuust the right amount. For my age and suspected breed(s) I’m a medium energy level. I love being outdoors. Whether it’s rolling around in the grass or going for binge walks. I am a lover and I’m not afraid to show it, I will give you plenty of hugs and kisses if you have the tolerance for it. I tend to be trusting and will quickly roll over and show you my belly, as I do enjoy a good scratch! My fosters say I’m very smart. When I was rescued I already knew a few commands like “sit” “paw” and even “wait.” and they are working with me everyday, teaching me “leave it” and “let’s go.” They said I’m a fast learner and I’m making great pawgress. I do love to chew, as I am a still considered puppy-ish, but I will be fine if you have lots of bones and chew toys for me. I love all humans, but because I am still in the puppy phase with my BIG chewing, it's better not to have very young kids around me. I love everyone though, you will see! I’m not too much of a barker, but certainly no wallflower either. Sometimes I cry a little because I do love attention and feel left out if I’m not in on all the action. My foster pawents take me to lots of places in the car. They say I might not have a lot of prior car experience, as appawently I’m still getting my sea legs and adjusting to the ride. But I’m curious about the outside and love to look out the window in awe at the world around me. I think I would be a perfect fit for any medium active to active and/or outdoorsy family or hooman. I’m a working dog by 'breed' so a family that can give me structure, leadership and mental stimulation would be a perfect mixer. So far I have been friendly with other dogs and I wag my tail whenever I see the little kittens that my foster parents have. I also greeted my foster pawents cat with a gentle, friendly nose bump. I know I can be a perfect companion, if someone would just give me a shot. How do you take your Whiskey? *If you are interested in Whiskey please fill out an application at www.animalcarezone.org/whiskey or e-mail us as animalcarezone@gmail.com.
