Story
Drake’s mom was GSP, dad was “lab mix”. He was born February 16, 2022. We got him as a puppy from a family nearly giving them away. He’s very food motivated. He knows: sit, shake, outside, go to bed/kennel- all as long as u have a treat ready! He’s occasionally scared of the dark. Primarily lives outside, sleeps in garage nightly. He isn’t trusting if he has food/treat and you get near his mouth. He doesn’t like cats, or other animals smaller than him. He is not getting along with chickens, cats, and will likely not like our 4h additions. He has played well with others of similar size, but he has no personal space. He is VERY sweet and when he “cuddles” he cant get close enough to you, in his opinion. Drake needs an outlet for his vast amounts of energy, structure, love, and no animals smaller than he is.

Story
LIMITED TIME ONLY! ADOPTION FEE HAS BEEN SPONSORED! Hi, my name is Koa! I have deformed bowed legs from being crated all my life and a knee injury! I need a TPLO surgery but due to my bowed legs I was told I am not a candidate for surgery at this time. I am the sweetest boy who would protect you to no end. 🩵🩵 I love to know I have a bit of freedom & have done so much better with open space. I am content by myself but would much rather have human company near me at all times. I do love my fosters large breed dogs. I am unsure how I would do with small animals. Due to prey drive I cannot be adopted to a home with small animals. I LOVE to lick! As you can tell my feet are stained, due to licking so much. I am not a huge fan of actual toys. Just things I can constantly lick & chew. My digestive system isn’t the greatest, but I finally have normal bowel movements! 😄😄 I would love to have bones, cow hooves or pig ears but unfortunately, I can’t process them like I should be able to ☹️. My Kong toy has become my all-time fav now!! I am on prescription dry food. I love to go on car rides! One of my foster’s coworkers brought it to her attention that I’d be a great fit for a truck driver!! I have a hard time with separation from people or my foster siblings. If you’re with me, I can go 4-5 hours without having to go outside. I love all humans & all I ever want are belly rubs or a scratch under my ears & collar. ❤️ I’d be best as an only dog, but with a very slow introduction it is possible to have other siblings.

🐾 🐾 🐾 Creed 🐾 🐾 🐾 This good boy is looking for his forever home or for a foster ASAP! His foster is having a family emergency and needs him placed! He did great at our last adoption event, gently taking treats from two doggy whisperer kiddos, practicing his sit, lay down, and shake cues, and just chilling with the other pups! He needs structure and an active home. Creed is: 🦴 2-3 years old 🐾 super good energy, athletic! 🦴 neutered, microchipped and up to date on vaccines 🐾 crate trained 🦴 super food motivated and easy to train! He has the cutest little underbite, and is good with dogs as long as there’s proper slow introductions!

Story
🖤 Draco is ready for his forever 🖤 Draco isn’t only the loyal dog everybody wants, but he is determined to be your best friend for life no matter what. Dogs never seem to fail humans but yet so many are failed by owners. Draco is ready to have a furever home where he won’t be failed! Draco is a great dog who loves to snuggle on the couch with his person and give you plenty of kisses. He enjoys running outside and playing with his abundance of toys. He also enjoys a big backyard to run in when he gets the zoomies. Unfortunately many would look past him because of his coloring, but I think it makes him stand out even more. I have truly enjoyed taking care of this precious soul, he is such a joyful dog and will make someone very happy! He is hard of hearing so when you want to get his attention I either squeak a toy or I wave to him to come. This treat motivated boy will make the perfect dog for someone who is willing to give him the chance he needs. Check out his videos in the comments!
