Juliet is a leading lady looking for love! This 1 year old beauty is playful, loyal, and ready for you to write her happy ending.

She’s a true romantic at heart, the kind who will follow you anywhere.

Story
Kyle is ready to hang with friends and just be one of the boys! Our staff describes him as friendly, active, goofy, and sweet. Kyle loves to play ball, accept tasty treats in return for commands, cuddling with his best friends, and going on adventures. He would be an incredible summer companion to explore the mountains and lakes with! He was confiscated after being abandoned in his former home so this tender soul could use some healing time with a family who will scoop him up and love him always! Kyle does display some resource guarding of tennis balls with other dogs but has no resource guarding tendencies with people, he just wants to keep the ball to himself while with other dogs but can play well otherwise! Age: 2 yearsMixed Breed: Husky MixOther Dogs: Has been good with other shelter dogs, would do well in a home with other dogs as long as the ball guarding is managed and not a problem. Cats: Interested and curious, friendly Kids: 12+Weight: 50 pounds Home Type: Active, House with Yard, Lots of outdoor exercise Leash Behavior: Working on his leash trainingKnown Commands: `Sit` `shake` `lay down`.

Story
Meatball is a friendly, affectionate guy who is more than ready to roll on out of the rescue and into a home of his own. He has a real zest for life and brings a bright, goofy energy everywhere he goes. His favorite things include tennis balls above all else, squeaky toys, tasty snacks, and stretching out for a good lounge session. He genuinely enjoys people and seeks out affection whenever he can.We recommend that he be the only dog in his home. He can be a bit protective of items he considers high value, especially tennis balls, so a home that can help him navigate that with structure and consistency will set him up for success. With time, training, and comfortability he may be capable of being around other dogs but he`s currently showing us that it can be overwhelming for him to interact with others. This handsome hunk has so much personality and heart. He’s going to make a fantastic companion for someone who appreciates a fun loving dog with a whole lot of charm.Weight: 60 poundsAge:2 yearsOther Dogs: No other dogs in home for now. Needs time, training, and decompressing time. Cats: NoKids: 16+Home Type: semi-active homeLeash Behavior: Walks fairly well on leash, is a strong boy so he is capable of pulling at times but typically walks well. Commands: `sit` - He knows his name. If you are interested in adopting Meatball please fill out our online application at highsierraanimalrescue.org.

Story
Emma is a loving people pleaser who will quickly become a loyal family member. She loves to make her people proud and blossoms when she feels comfortable. She knows a handful of commands, is friendly with other dogs, and is learning how to be someone’s walking buddy. Emma plays ball, happily accepts treats, enjoys cuddling, being with her people, and playing in her kiddie pool.Her exuberance and strength can surprise you if you aren`t ready for it. We are working on that with her at HSAR, teaching her personal and practical boundaries. We want her to find someone who has the time to bring the joy of obedience training into her daily routine. Emma would make an excellent pal for another playful dog. Previously Emma was a bit hesitant to trust men but we found that with the proper, slow introduction, she becomes comfortable. HSAR provides training advice and one-on-one help with our adopted dogs as needed.
