Story
Koe is 6 years old, his birthday is September 2nd, 2019. I picked him up when he was 8 weeks old and have been in love ever since. He’s a snuggler, a swimmer, a ball chaser and a lover. He loves everyone, gives the best hugs, and is 100% convinced he is a lap dog. He’s very sweet, has zero special awareness and is a little too excited to get through any door. Although he has been part of my family for 6 years, he’s become incompatible with the lifestyle that has changed for our newborn and toddler. He deserves the time and effort of a loving family with no little people to run over. He has separation anxiety, occasional ear infections, and severe anxiety and panic when it comes to rain and thunder for which I will provide his calming medication for.

Story
Honey is a purebred golden retriever and she's a really great girl. She's three years old and we got her as a pup from a sweet family locally. She's got your typical golden retriever attitude, loyal and happy. She is genuinely happy just being with you. She loves hiking, walks, runs and swimming and kids.

Story
Hi... I'm Ronnie. I can be pretty shy when we first meet, and new people or new places can feel a little overwhelming. But if you're patient with me and give me the time I need, something really special happensI fall in love with my people, and I love them with my whole heart. Once I've decided you're my person, I'm all about attention, affection, and spending time together. I don't even mind gentle handling, and I absolutely love playing with toys! I'd do well in a home with other dogs and kids over 10 who understand that I need a little time to settle in. Cats are still a mystery to me. One thing you should know is that I'm a bit of an escape artist! I'll need supervision outside and a family that's committed to keeping me safe while I work on resisting the urge to go on solo adventures. Give me love, patience, and a secure home, and I'll give you unwavering loyalty in return. We do not see Adopt-a-Pet inquiries!

Story
Hi! I'm Woody... though if you accidentally call me Woodrow, I'll probably answer to that too. I'm a goofy, silly guy with a personality that's just as big as my toy collection. Speaking of toys... they're mine. All mine. I like to gather them into one impressive pile like a tiny dragon protecting his treasure hoard, and convincing me to part with one can be quite the negotiation. But... Treats and the bribe of a walk are pretty good opions. I'm a little more on the independent side when it comes to affection. I like being near my peopleI just don't necessarily need to be glued to you every second of the day. Think of me as the roommate who's happy to hang out in the same room while we each do our own thing. I'd do best with kids over 10 and no small critters in the home. They're just so interesting. If you're looking for a funny, quirky companion with just the right amount of stubbornness, I might be your guy. We do not see Adopt-a-Pet inquiries!

Story
Hi, I'm Suzy Q! I'm the smallest brown girl in the litter, but I make sure everyone knows I'm here. My eyes are open, I'm already toddling around, and I've recently discovered something incredible... baby barks! I'm the most active of my siblings and can't wait to see what adventures are waiting for me. I'll be ready to head home at the end of August, and I'm already accepting applications for my future family! We do not see Adopt-a-Pet inquiries!

Story
Hello! Im Tex. Im the lankiest lab mix with long legs and a goofy smile. I recently got into a foster home and I've really started to blossom! Now all I'm waiting for is for someone to come along and give me a home! I can be a bit silly sometimes and sometimes I like to act like a puppy! Im extremely curious about the world and Id love a family who likes adventure. Im just looking for someone to love and have fun with! My foster mom figured out I'm not a huge fan of water or storm drains, but she's slowly been working with me to get used to them! I have a sister who is about 1/3 of my size and we've gotten along amazingly since day one. Sometimes I don't realize my size so I will need to continue to learn. I think I prefer being around dogs who are smaller than me at the moment but I really do thrive having another dog around the house. I've been interested in kids and people around us, but I can be a bit weary of strangers sometimes. But once you're my person, you're mine for life! We do not see Adopt-a-Pet inquiries!
