Story
Will is the true companion. All he cares about is getting to be with his people and wrestling with his brother. He is an extremely happy guy with the most soulful eyes, who enjoys adventuring and is learning house training. He does not really like the leash yet, but we are working on that. Will is generally mellow and enjoys taking naps outside, playing with his brother, eating, and chasing balls. He loves having something to snuggle with and plays with his people, makes them feel important, and listens well. He enjoys playing with other dogs once he knows them (like our dog in his foster home), but is cautious about other dogs he does not know. He is a true joy and will love you unconditionally. He is a dream guy and will make an amazing family dog! **Will is scheduled to be neutered and microchipped in November by LSC.

Story
We have had Nala since she was 8weeks old! She is now 5 will be 6 December 22nd! She is a cuddle bug for sure and loves to play! shes very smart and learns quickly. She is kennel trained, house trained and knows basic commands. She loves her paw held. She will literally be your best friend. She needs an active loving family. I have developed an allergy to her fur and while i have been able to manage it pretty well our work situation is also changing within the next few weeks and i dont want her home alone or kenneled for the majority of the day. She deserves better than that. She is up to date on shots and goes to her annual well checks. Shes also been to doggy boarding and does great. Shes great with other dogs big or small and loves kids. she loves anyone that loves her honestly.She is not spayed but probably should be.She will come with all of her things to her new home.

Story
Lilly is such a good girl! She is one of the smartest dogs I have ever met. Lily has a good amount of energy but is also well trained. She is a fast runner but will not bolt away from you. She is one of the fastest dogs at the dog park. Lilly is loyal and very motivated to please. Since she was a puppy, we’ve had her with our family. We have three kids and another dog. She has never been aggressive. Shes a confident, goofy girl. For someone who is even moderately active, she would be extremely grateful to live with you. I can’t emphasize how sweet Lilly is. We love her and we want to make sure she goes to a great home. She’s kennel trained, and has never had an accident in the house after learning where to go. The only time she’s lived with Cats, she was very excited around them at first (the cats did not appreciate that. To be fair, she was like 16 weeks old). The cats trained her to respect them, but did not live with us for very long. Lily’s a great dog and needs her forever home.

Story
Murphy has been such an amazing dog to our family. I got him in 2020, and finding him a wonderful home is incredibly important to me. ❤️ Murphy is genuinely a sweet, gentle dog. He is patient, affectionate, and submissive in the best way. He has been phenomenal even around family members’ dogs who can be reactive or aggressive. He is great with puppies, older dogs, and has even lived peacefully with cats. (He is not usually a fan of unneutered male dogs.) In his younger days, Murphy occasionally decided to “walk himself,” and half the neighborhood knew him. 😂 Once he got out while we were gone, went on his adventure, opened our front door himself, let himself back in, and waited for us at home. Thankfully, those naughty days are LONG behind him. 😂 Murphy is smart, loving, mellow, and a wonderful family dog. I don’t just want someone willing to take him—I want to find a family who will truly love him. ❤️

Story
Marshall is all about being your sidekick! He loves to play and to cuddle, and really just wants to be with his people more than anything else (except maybe playing with another dog!). He loves other dogs and people of all ages, and he is very enthusiastic about having a playmate! He is thoughtful, enjoys playing outside, and loves getting snuggles. He is the first one to meet you at the door or to run across the yard to greet you, and already seems to know what people need from him. He is amazing with all aspects of puppy-dom! He is doing really well with house training and has learned sit. We are working on the leash, but he is pretty good with that as well. He is pretty intelligent and seems to have an intrinsic thoughtfulness. He is simply amazing! **Marshall will be neutered and microchipped by LSC

Story
Goose is a sweet boy and loves his people. He gets so excited when you come home that he prances around with a to and wags his happy tail! He is about two years old and weighs about 60 pounds. He enjoys people and does well meeting other adults. Goose knows sit, down, and shake. He is a dog that will look at you for direction and will look right into your eyes. He wants to do the right thing, but boundaries need to be set up and enforced gently with Goose. He was a bit under-socialized when we got him back, so we have been working on his confidence, understanding boundaries, and socialization. He goes in to work every day with his foster. He is smart and is loving, and he is house trained and sleeps in the crate all night. He is bigger and strong, but he is not overly active. Goose would make an amazing hiking companion but also enjoys accompanying you to the bathroom and hanging with a movie. He has not really enjoyed being put in the back yard, so he has been just fine getting walked rather than zooming around a back yard. Goose can be dog selective but does listen when a dog does not want him in their space. He also is getting really good at walking on the leash with no reactivity! This is a great big step for him! We are so proud of how far he has come! Truly, he is working hard on how to socialize with other dogs. This comes from being under-socialized and not having limits at his past home. He has gotten along with a couple of dogs previously, but would be happiest as an only dog in the home. He has done very well listening to his foster and learning new limits, and he has learned things quickly. He has a prey drive out on the leash, and that has been getting better with his foster, but he also lives with a confident cat who loves dogs. He does get a bit nervous around small children, so will only go to a home with older children or no children. He needs someone who will give him lots of love and get him outside and adventuring. He is a good boy, and we are working on the dog socialization every day. His confidence is much better right now, and we are working on helping him view the world as a safe place where he can just keep smiling!
