Story
Asher is a beautiful boy. He is protective in personality and would do well with some one familiar with guard breeds. We are having a baby and cannot keep him. He is a deaf dog but understands sign language. He can run off leash and will return to your side. He would be a great police or search dog as his nose is impeccable. Please adopt Asher. He is a good dog just has a high prey drive and further training.

Story
Teddy is ready to go home! Teddy was adopted from us in October of 2022 but was returned to us to the previous owner stated that he was having soiling accidents in the house. Since being back at the shelter (6/25), Teddy has not had one accident in his kennel. Teddy loves every human that he meets and good with other dogs. He is a sweet pup that needs basic manners training to help him to become a fantastic dog. Because Teddy likes to "talk", apartment living would not be fair to Teddy or neighbors. He is friendly, playful, and very high energy. Teddy loves to go walks and would be a great hiking partner for someone. The shelter staff love's Teddy and a hoping for the right family to take this sweet boy home. Prior purebred Siberian Husky experience is a plus, but not a deal breaker. Please do your research about this breed before applying for Teddy. Teddy is 1.2 years old, neutered, vaccinated, blood-tested, and microchipped.

Story
Winston is a Treeing Walker Coonhound who was rescued from Tennessee by Double Dog Rescue, Simsbury CT, and adopted in Oct. 2020. He is 3.5 years old. He is a goofy, funny, loving dog who will greet you with tail wags and a coonhound hug. He has high energy and loves long walks, playing tug-o'-war with toys, belly rubs, and sniffing out things in the park. He loves playing with other dogs and currently attends Doggy Day Camp twice a week. His counselors and his veterinarian comment about how well-behaved he is. He does need some continued training with his leash-walking and indoor manners (counter-surfing, jumping up on people, etc.) but he is food-motivated and scented high-value treats are some of his favorites. He would thrive in a home that has a fenced-in yard, other dogs to play with (no cats), and a home in an area without traffic or too many neighborhood distractions. He is loyal to his family and would be a great companion for the right person.

Story
Honey is no longer available. She has been adopted. Thank you all for your interest. Honey is approximately one year old. She loves to run, jump, eat food and cookies, play toys, and snuggle. She is up-to-date on all her shots, spade, and micro chipped. Honey is 10 lbs. She is crate trained. I got her from a rescue five weeks ago. She’s a total delight, but requires more energy than I, as a 70 year old woman, currently have. I cannot keep up with her physically. She loves her daily walk and playing toys. She is very friendly with strangers and loves to explore. I would love to have her go to a more active family who can be with her through the day and have patience as she learns what is expected of her. I would love her to be in a happy home where she will be well loved. It breaks my heart to let her go, but sometimes after my working day is done she can be too exhausting for me.

Story
The dogs are best friends. I would like them 2 go 2 a home together. They come with kennels, dog bed, harnesses, dog food, and heart guard. I have them on a veterinarian subscription at Montgomery road vca. The lab reign gets along with everyone. Reign likes 2 run through our stream when i walk her. Ziggy loves trail running. Ziggy gets anxiety without reign. Ziggy can't be alone. Ziggy does good with other animals and people. Ziggy let our siamese kitten crawl on him. He tried 2 be friends with our other cat, she didn't like him.

Story
First, she is located in Tampa FL (website won't let me change address). So we are only looking for local homes. Summer is a 100lbs plus white German Shepard and Great Pyrenees mix. She is almost 3 years old now. She has a fun energetic and very friendly personality. Her favorite thing is to be with other animals and loves to run. She is a bit lonely with just her human parents and we would be seeking a new home that already has another pet. She has a personality like that of a child. She will let you know when she wants to go outside or wants to eat what you are eating or wants to go to the park. She also loves to swim in the river and play in the snow. We would like for her to be with a family that will take the time to play outdoors and train her a bit. We think she needs both physical exercise and mental stimulation every day.
