Story
This handsome mug belongs to Porkchop! Porkchop is an 11 month old Bulldog mix who weighs about 60 pounds! He is a happy boy who loves to play with the resident dogs in his foster home. He's cautious and can be a nervous nelly, so slow introductions to new dogs, kids, and humans work best for this guy. He would love to have a confident and relaxed dog buddy in his forever home! After he gets used to new people, he loves to dole out kisses :) Porkchop is pen and crate trained, and potty trained! He's a young dog so he will need continued training and direction in his forever home. He thrives with routine and repetition. This includes his walk routes! He enjoys going for walkies but he likes to stick to a route he's comfortable with since new things can be scary! Porkchop's dream home is one where his humans will keep up with his training and help him build confidence, and give hime time and space to adjust to new things. He's such a sweet buddy who loves belly rubs, attention, and food, and he always gets so excited to see his humans when they come home! If you'd like to be showered with kisses every time you walk through the door, don't sleep on Porkchop! Porkchop's adoption fee is $650.

Story
Do you have a nice comfy bed and warm toastie covers? If so, I may just be your girl! Hi, I'm Lucia! I am a 6 year old, spayed, Bernese Mountain Dog. The first part of my life wasn't great, so my life experience before coming into rescue was very limited. I never knew how big the world was and sometimes it's still very scary for me! Because of this, sometimes I get scared and try to run. However I am working on being a big brave girl, as my foster mom calls me everyday. Everyday I am learning that living in a home as a pet is pretty awesome! Foster mom and I play games to help me adjust, she says she's training me, but am pretty sure I have total control over her... I look at her... food, I walk to her... treats, I lay down to rest... snackies! Some amazing things about me: I can be trusted in the house not to potty or be destructive, as long as I'm given routine trips outside. I'm a quiet girl that could live in an apartment, condo, or home. I could enjoy life with or without another dog, and I am good with cats. I'm good on a leash and am learning that walks allow me to see so much more of the world! I am also happy to explore the backyard! My favorite times are when I get to hang out in the bedroom, laying on the bed, covered up, watching Bluey... top tier! I would love a family that will understand I'm still learning to enjoy life as a pet. It will take me some more time to fully trust the humans in my life. A family that can continue working on my training would be great! And most importantly, I wish for a family that can continue to help me become the big brave girl I know I can be! If you think you are the perfect family for me apply today! Got to go...... my show's on! My adoption fee is $600.

Spayed or Neutered,
Story
James Franco is an 8 year old, 10 pound, Yorkie who moonlights as a dog model. He loves other dogs and, after some initial shyness, he warms up to new human friends! He seems to prefer the company of women over men, and above all else, he really just wants allll the attention! He has no problem letting you know that your hand should always be available to reach out and give him some love if it's within reach of his snout. He will even roll over for belly rubs! James is doing well with free roam in his foster home, though he's still working on potty training and other basic training. He will do best in a quieter home with older or no children. He would be happy to have a pup friend and will happily be your tag-along companion! He's the perfect purse pup! If you're up for the task of spoiling James for the rest of his cays, apply today! James Franco's adoption fee is $500.

Story
If you've fallen in love with this guy's face before learning anything about him we don't blame you. Blitzen is a scruffy stunner for sure. He's a 7 month old mixed large breed puppy who weighs about 50 pounds. He is recovering well from FHO surgery in his foster home and he is looking for a forever family who will help him successfully complete his recovery! Blitzen came to TNT from a very crowded shelter that does the best they can, but many dogs there don't get a chance. Blitzen is happy to have this second chance at getting the vet care he needed and finding his forever family! He's a best friend to every dog he meets, friendly with kids, and shy but friendly with new people. Like any puppy, Blitzen is more naughty when he's bored, so brain games and toys will be key to keeping him mentally stimulated. He really loves his bones and kongs and is a master at stuffy toy destruction, so prepare to raid the clearance bin at your local pet store! This very good puppy is making progress on his puppy manners. He's potty trained and getting used to the idea of being in his crate. He's also working on walking nicely on a leash! One thing he hasn't learned is table manners, and we aren't quite sure how to teach him it's impolite to belch after he eats. So instead, you get to enjoy this little endearing trait :) He will keep his future people on a schedule for morning potty breaks and breakfast! And then he will sing to them about his day, boop them for attention when he needs some love, and snore like a sailor to make sure they remember he's there - even when he's snoozing. What more could you ask for in a forever friend?! If you're looking for big personality wrapped in a Blitzen-sized package, please apply today! Blitzen's adoption fee is $600.

Story
This beautiful Bernese Mountain dog is Dave Franco. He is 3 years old and weighs about 85 pounds. Dave came to us after a not-so-great past, and he is still getting used to being in a home. He is great with other dogs, though! He is looking for a forever home with another confident dog who can help him gain confidence and show him how great life can be as a family member! Given his past, Dave is shy meeting new people and children. He's working on potty training and has done alright with free roam in his foster home. He loves to run around the yard at his foster home and he's very curious about the goats and chickens! He sticks to his foster canine brother when they explore the great outdoors. In addition to another dog, Dave is looking for a patient adopter who understands that many things are new to him. He will also need a secured 6 food fence to keep him safe! Unexpected noise and touch startle him, so you will need to let him come to you. And once he is comfortable, he will! He greets his foster mom with tail wags when she arrives home! Dave has shown us that he gets very excited for food, so we think that as he comes out of his shell, this will be a great tool for his future training :) This special guy is looking for a special family to show him that it's only up from here! Please let us know if you fit the bill by filling out an application! Dave Franco's adoption fee is $775 which includes gastropexy.

Story
Carter! This delightful Great Pyrenees mix is 80 pounds of love. He loves to play with other dogs and warms up to new people in no time at all. Carter is about 3 years old and fully potty trained. He's working on getting comfy with crate time! If given the choice, Carter will show you his love by jumping on you to smother you with kisses. Since he's a big guy, he will need to work on curbing the whole jumping part, along with other basic training! He loves to run around the yard and play with the resident pup at his foster home, and then he will curl up for a comfy nap when he's tuckered out! Carter will do well in just about any home. He just needs a patient family who will help him get used to his new surroundings! In return, this sweet, gentle guy will give you endless snuggles and love. If Carter is the pup for you, apply today! Adoption fee: $550
