Story
Meet Sylvester!     Sylvester is an extremely lovable boy, he’s very loyal and intelligent. He’s a big baby who doesn’t realize his size and would gladly snuggle you to death or go run around the mountains for hours/days.   He does amazing with humans but is more choosy with his animal friends. He does have a dog sister who he loves and has been able to make friends with some other dogs, but gradually and controlled.    Sylvester just wants to be a good boy and needs a new home that can continue to guide him in the right direction with love and patience.    Some of his tricks: sit, come, heel, sit between the legs, bang (play dead), roll over, spin, army crawl, beep beep (backing up noise), spot/place (any elevated surface that you establish), he constantly likes the challenge of learning new ones. March 26, 2024, 2:54 pm

Story
Meet Mae!   This big girl is looking for a new home. She is a 3 year old great pyrenees mix. She is in need of a family who can continue her training. She does well with kids, but can be reactive meeting people for the first time and also on leash.  She gets along with some dogs, but would probably do best in a single dog home as she can be a bit of a resource guarder.  She is working on these behaviors and will need continued support. March 26, 2024, 2:54 pm

Story
Hi, I'm Dakotah! I'm a very sweet and beautiful girl looking for a family to love. I am so gentle, smart, brave, and loyal. I bond very easily and will follow you everywhere to keep you safe. While I warm up to people right away, I need a little time to settle into new surroundings. I am learning to trust the world again, and can be afraid of loud noises and activities like being brushed. I just need a little time and reassurance...and treats! Despite being timid, I will always seek affection from my humans. I am very food motivated and know commands like sit and down - my foster family thinks I may know even more! I do not like being in a crate, but I am potty trained and do very well in the home. Once I settle in, my sass and determination will shine. I am vocal to tell you if I need to go potty...or sometimes to demand some snuggles. I am curious and love to go on walks and be outside. I walk very well on a leash, and am quite athletic despite my age. I love to cuddle on the couch, and insist on being by your side throughout the night. I love gentle face pets, nuzzles, and kisses. If you're looking for a perfect girl to warm your heart and bring you joy, come meet me!
