Story
Hey there, I’m Riot! I’m a friendly, well-trained pup looking for my forever home. I get along great with dogs of all sizes and already know lots of commands—sit, down, come, outside, here, and shake! I’m also housebroken and crate-trained, so I’ve got the basics covered. I love spending time outside and will happily explore all day if you let me! However, with a good routine, I settle down well. I’m looking for an experienced owner (no young kids, please!) who can help me build my confidence and feel secure. If you’re ready for a smart and playful companion, I’d love to meet you!

Hey there, I’m Kobe! I’m a friendly, fun-loving pup who’s always up for an adventure- especially if it involves a car ride! I know my basic commands and get along pretty well with other dogs! But my favorite thing? Being with people! I’m a big cuddler who thinks I’m a lap dog (hope you don’t mind!). Give me a bone or a tasty treat, and I’ll be your best friend forever. If you’re looking for a loyal, affectionate companion, I just might be your perfect match. Come meet me- I’d love to snuggle my way into your heart!

Story
Hi there, I’m Zeus! I’m an energetic, playful guy who loves meeting new people. I’ll get so excited when visitors come over, and I might jump up in a playful way to greet you! But don’t worry—I’m house trained and have learned some basic obedience, so I know how to behave. When no one’s home, I’m totally fine either crated or loose in the house. I sleep on the couch at night, dreaming of all the fun we’ll have together! I’m super friendly and love attention, so I’m always up for some snuggles and playtime. I’m a muscular pup, full of energy and ready for action, but I do well with calm dogs and am happy to share my space with them. If you`re looking for a loyal and loving companion who will bring lots of energy and joy to your home, I might just be the pup for you!
