Story
Jamie’s human mom died, family isn’t able to care for him. Currently living in a foster home with 3 other large dogs and a tiny 8 pound dog.He wants a home w/ love, affection.Jamei’s original home had two small dogs and a cat.Loves car rides, has a few stuffies that he likes to play with. Haven’t found a treat that he really likes, so far not food motivated. Wants to hear what a “good boy”, he is.Will bark when someone comes on the property to let you know and when he gets excited.Mild separation anxiety, whines for a few minutes when one of his favorite people leave.Totally potty trained, working on the leash walking, when told “no pull”, will stop pulling.Diet needs are: Vet believes that he may have a grain /chicken allergy. Just switched foods to salmon and sweet potato from Costco. All itching has stopped.

Story
Meet Sarge!He is currently in a foster home receiving heart worm treatment! Wish him luck!----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------He is a playful and spunky guy gives the best hugs. He came in as an owner surrender. Before arriving, he had lived his entire life in a backyard behind a four-foot fence.This New Year, Sarge has just one resolution: Finally be adopted into a real home. Not another year outdoors. Not another night wondering when he will finally have a home to call his own, Just a couch to nap on, a warm bed, and a family to call his own! Sarge has spent his whole life outside, but somehow his heart is still wide open. He’s the kind of dog who gives love freely, laughs easily (yes... happy zoomies included) and makes friends with every person he meets. He doesn’t ask for much just a chance! A door that opens and stays open! Imagine starting your year with a dog who greets every day like it’s the best day ever! That’s Sarge -- Loyal. Sweet. Ready to give a lifetime of love to the person who says, “You’re home now.”He is an expert at opening all types of door (gates, garage doors, front door, kennel), but somehow always stayed contained behind a four-foot fence. He also will try to sneak treats from your treat pouch with his big Shepherd nose. He keeps his kennel sooo clean, so we can assume that he is fully potty trained. He has such amazing potential to be someone`s dream dog.He recently went on a Dog Day Out to the beach! Here`s what our volunteers had to say: `Sarge! He enjoyed a beach outing today and made full use of his 16-ft leash without pulling once he reached the end of it. He did bark at other dogs, so he’ll benefit from training to help him unlearn that habit. When the beach was quiet, he was relaxed, affectionate, and playful—chasing his ball and carrying a stick. He’s a beautiful, loving dog who will thrive with guidance and consistency.`He, unfortunately, has tested heart worm positive. HSH will cover the cost of treatment, but he will need to be in a home (not a crazy shelter environment) to complete it. According to the vet, his teeth are in excellent condition, so it is possible that he is younger than the seven years reported by the original owner.Male7 years75 lbsOrigin Story:Owner Surrender: According to the surrender notes, he was an outside only dog, and is a German Shepher

Story
Yang!This little lady loves lap sitting and face kissing. She`s an agile dog who is not opposed to showing off her parkour moves when the mood strikes.She came in with another small breed male with whom she is obsessed. The feeling isn’t mutual, so they don’t need to go as a bonded pair. She hasn’t made friends with any other dogs at the shelter.Due to her coat type, she will need trips to a professional groomer every 6ish weeks, plus regular brushing at home.FemaleMaltipoo?Adult12.8 lbs--------------Interested in adopting?
