Story
Hi, I’m Monte! I’m a sweet, friendly, and playful 5-year-old French Bulldog–Pug mix looking for my forever home. I’m neutered, potty trained, and full of love to give! - I have a very sweet temperament and love spending time with my people. - I love my toys, playing, going for walks, runs, doing treat puzzles and keeping my mind busy! - I know how to sit, stay, and stand up, and I’m a smart boy who loves learning. - I’m very tolerant and do good with baths, groomers (mostly for trimming nails,I only lightly shed.) and being handled and held. - I’m friendly with people of all ages and do well with children. I get along well with dogs around my size, although bigger dogs can make me a little nervous. - I’m potty trained and can stay home on my own as long as I get outside for a bathroom break every 3–5 hours. My little quirks : I love having a cozy place to sleep, and my kennel is one of my favorite spots! I prefer being able to go in and out of it on my own, though.

Story
Ready to bring adventure and snuggles into your life! I'm energetic and packed with personality. Mae knows many commands like sit, down, and sit pretty. Mae might be interested in other dogs but can be dog selective at times. We would recommend a dog intro prior to bringing her home. She can be unsure of new people but warms up quickly with treats. Mae loves to hug, kiss, and sing to you when she's excited.

McGruffin is a sweet guy who is still settling into his environment. He gains confidence every day, but is looking for a predictable home where he can come out of his shell at his pace. He enjoys spending time outside, especially when his human friends let him follow them around! He doesn't mind grooms, but is still learning that pampering isn't scary. McGruffin has lived with dogs in his previous home and would likely enjoy dog friends in his adoptive home!
