Story
Hi! My name is Lola! I am 3 years old and weigh 75 pounds. My mom is a lab mix and my dad is a german shepherd. I am fully potty trained and crate trained, I like my crate and sometimes just go in there and lay down. I am timid at first and may bark my deep bark until I get to know you.  I enjoy playing with the other dogs in my foster home and even let them take my toys away from me. I go to doggy daycare twice a week and have so much fun. I was so loved and spoiled in my previous home. We had to move to a smaller house with a cat and it was determined that I am not good with cats. I would be a devoted buddy to a loving family (without a cat). Lola's adoption fee is $300 which cover her spay, microchip, vaccines and flea & heartworm prevention. You can apply at gfrpets.org/apply/adoptdog/ ##1462883##

Story
Introducing Mikey! He is very sweet but very shy. He is thought to be a mini aussie or border collie mix who only weighs 35 pounds and is 1 year 5 months old. He will need someone who will have the patience to earn his trust, he will quickly be the best friend you could ever ask for. When you look in his eyes you'll see that he really want to just snuggle in. He doesn't have a mean bone in his body. Mikey is crate trained and is working on potty training. He is great with other dogs and loves to play with them. Due to his skittish nature Mikey does require a securely fenced yard. Mikey is neutered, microchipped, heartworm tested negative, current on vaccines and flea/tick/heartworm prevention. His adoption fee is only $300.

Border Collie St. Bernard

Story
Tilly is mesmerizing with her icy blue eyes. This beautiful girl is 2 years old. She is very smart. She would be great learning one of the many dog sports. She consistantly "checks in" with her foster mom to see if anything is expected of her.  Tilly would thrive with an adopter who is "hands on". She is 1/3 border collie, but also has small amounts of siberian husky/saint bernard/boxer/labrador retriever per her DNA results. A quiet home without small children would be ideal for her. Tilly is dog selective and it is unknown how she is with cats. She is crate and potty trained. Tilly is spayed, microchipped, current on vaccines and flea/tick/heartworm prevention. Her adoption fee is only $300.00. Please apply at gfrpets.org/apply/adoptdog/ ##1880121##

Story
Meet PD, a 10 year old Chihuahua. This little guy is fully potty trained! He has never had a single accident in his foster home. His favorite things are his people, his furry foster brother, belly scratches, being the boss of his household, and his twice a day treats (the only way he takes his medication). PD has been diagnosed with an enlarged heart and a heart murmur, requiring daily medication. Also has kidney concerns which are maintained on a prescription kidney-support diet. He would benefit from losing some weight (he's quite chunky) with light exercise. It will be beneficial for his overall health. PD does not like dogs bigger than he is. He also does not like when his foster brother is getting attention and he isn't, or when someone gets too close while he is on your lap (he can be a bit possessive with his people). This special guy needs a calm and loving home that does not have a lot of new people coming around. He can be very spicy towards new people as he is very protective of his family. His furever family must also be willing to continue caring for his medical needs. He's been the bestest boy in his foster home. PD's $300 adoption fee covers his neuter, vaccines, heartworm test, flea/tick/heartworm preventatives, deworming medication, and microchip registration.

Story
Merry is a 4 month old happy girl that loves to play and cuddle. She is around 15 lbs and we were told she is a mix of labradoodle and husky. We expect she will weigh 40-50 pounds when grown. She has blue eyes but her hair is thinner than the rest of the litter. Her coat will need to be maintained and her skin needs attention because it gets dry and is a little flaky. She loves being around people and will make a great companion. Everyday she currently runs out in the woods and stays on the trail with her foster dad and her siblings. She will need patience on her housetraining and puppy mouthing. Merry has been spayed, microchipped, vaccines including rabies, dewormer, and flea/heartworm preventatives. Her adoption fee is $300. ##2591045##
