Story

~ I can live in a single family home or condo, apartment considered. ~ I have not had much experience with children but am willing to consider sharing my home with kids who can be gentle and respectful of pets. ~ I have not had much experience with other pets and am willing to consider sharing my home with them with slow and thoughtful introductions. ~ I am a high energy kind of dog and am looking for a home where I can get lots of exercise every day. ~ I may be a great dog for the first time dog owner. ~ I am still learning and want to get off to a great start in my new home, so I will need to continue my training. (Obedience Training Required) Meet Gwen! Gwen is a 6 month old, spayed female, Labrador Retriever mix weighing 35 pounds and still growing! She has a beautiful black coat mixed with patches of bright white. Ginny came to CHS from another shelter after she and her sister, Ginny, were found as strays. She is a friendly, affectionate pup who loves attention, belly rubs, and especially playing in the pool-once shes in the water, she never wants to get out! This happy, high-energy girl is looking for an active home where she can get plenty of daily exercise and continue her training through obedience classes. Gwen may be a great fit for a first time dog owner and can live in a single family home, condo, or possibly an apartment. While she hasnt had much experience with children, cats, or other dogs besides her sister Ginny, she may be willing to share her home with gentle, respectful kids and furry friends. If youre looking for a fun-loving companion ready for adventure, Gwen could be the perfect addition to your family!

Story

~ I can live in a single family home. I may be comfortable in a condo but Im too large for apartments. ~ I want to live with adults. I may be willing to consider sharing my home with teenagers who are very gentle and respectful of pets. ~ I may enjoy living with cats and dogs pending slow and thoughtful introductions. ~ I have my moments of energy and need to get some exercise every day. ~ I am a great dog with lots of potential. I would do best with a family who has owned dogs before. Meet Donatello! Named after everyones favorite inventor turtle, Donatello is a 2.5 year old, neutered, Labrador Retriever mix weighing 60 pounds. This handsome black-and-white boy came to CHS from another shelter, where he was born and has spent his entire life. Like any hero starting a new adventure, Donatello can be a little nervous in new situations and with unfamiliar people. With patience and a gentle approach, however, he quickly reveals his sweet and affectionate personality. He is leash trained, kennel trained, enjoys playing with other dogs, and has been fairly neutral around cats. Donatello is looking for an adult home, though he may do well with respectful teenagers. He would be happiest with an experienced dog owner who can help him continue building confidence. He enjoys daily exercise, may be able to live with other pets after slow introductions, and is best suited for a single family home or possibly a condo. If youre ready to help this gentle ninja come out of his shell, Donatello may be the perfect sidekick for your family!
