This sweet girl was found wandering the streets of the county. Taken in by a Good Samaritan, Abby was timid and not sure about people. She quickly warmed up to the folks and their 3 large dogs. After a vet appointment, she was declared healthy! She loves to snuggle on the couch ...especially with one of the big dogs at the fosters. Loves to play tug o war with the big dogs too.!

This sweet boy was literally a deal dog walking at a local vet. Owners wanted him to be put down. They were having a baby and already had 2 big dogs when they added Brody . So he was last one in their home so he was the first to be "voted off the island"! This guy is very affectionate, playful, crate trained, house trained. Seems to warm up to women quicker than men but has done great with our male volunteers.
