Story
Moose is a sweet, goofy 2.5-year-old dog with a big heart and lots of love to give. After a tough start in life, he’s proven to be incredibly resilient and is now ready for his forever home. He’s very food-motivated, making him highly trainable, and he loves staying active with runs and games of fetch. Moose is great with people, does well with older kids, and even gets along with cats.He’s made great progress on leash but can still be a bit reactive around other dogs, so continued training will help him keep improving. Moose may do best as the only dog or with a calm, submissive companion. He’s also a known counter surfer, so a home that can manage food boundaries is important.Moose is neutered, up to date on vaccinations, recently had a clean bill of health, and comes with a year of heartworm prevention. He’s ready to bring joy, loyalty, and plenty of laughs to his new home.

Story
Meet Dulcie! This smart, potty-trained girl is the ultimate companion whether you are hitting the open road or relaxing at home. She loves to play with toys, run around in the yard, or flop over for belly rubs. Dulcie can be 100% trusted at home alone with just one hilarious exception: she has mastered the art of opening kitchen cabinets! A few childproof locks should do the trick! If you are looking for a loyal, fun-loving partner in crime who brings intelligence and a little bit of mischief to the table, Dulcie is your girl!

Story
Hi, I'm Artturi! I am a friendly pup with so much love to give! I love to play around with both doggy friends and humans alike! I am a little shy when meeting new folks, so I might take a little bit of time to warm up, but I warm up very fast with some love and patience. The shelter staff tell me I am a "timid guy" who walks well on leash and they tell me what a good boy I am, and I believe it! I'm crate trained, working on perfecting housetraining, and have already aced a beginner obedience class! I love going for car rides, going on runs (I can go for miles!), and playing fetch! Given my age and breed, exercise is definitely the key to unlocking my chill side. I'm a smart boy and I'm eager to learn, making training easy breezy! I can't wait to meet you and see if we might be a great match!
