Story
Transport Available England and the Midwest! Looking for a new bestie who is silly, loving, and so much fun?? Well look no further! My name is Tucker, and I think I could be that guy! Between playtime, nap time, and food time, I don’t know which is my favorite….. Jk - it’s playtime! As long as I have some doggy pals and my favorite toys around (all 5 of them), I have zero complaints. I love a good snuggle during my naps and I sleep through the whole night like a big boy (my foster mom loves that about me)! All I need from you is some patience (I’m just a baby!), a soft bed, and endless smooches! At the time of adoption Tucker will be neutered, microchipped and up to date on all shots.

Story
Get ready to meet your new partner in crime! I'm Sabrina, a playful, adventurous gal who's all about playing, going on long walks, and, yeah, I might have a tiny foot fetish. I'm mastering my sits and downs, and I'm stoked to keep training to become the ultimate best friend. My foster mom, Miss Tina, thinks I'm a total whiz kid and would excel at training. As a crazy-active pup, I need a home with someone who can keep up with my energetic vibes. I'm killing it with crate training and doing pretty well with potty training, if I do say so myself. So, if you think we'd be a match made in doggy heaven, reach out to For Good Rescue. Oh yea and by the way did I tell you, Im really cute too! I was born around mid September and will likely be 50-60 pounds when grown. If I sound like your next addition apply today!! Love your new BFF Sabrina Please visit our website www.forgoodrescue.org to learn more about this amazing pet and to see other available dogs.
