Story
This is Nova. She is a 5 year old Great Pyrenees and Yellow Lab mix. She is a very sweet dog- to her adult humans. We love Nova very much but she is now resource guarding and has become aggressive towards our other pets. Nova really needs a home where she is the only pet and at this point I would say she needs a home with no small children. She is very vocal and persistent about what she needs and wants so she'll need someone with patience that can devote a lot of time and attention to her. It's hard for us to say goodbye but we think she'll be happier as an only pet.

Story
Coco is a cute lab husky/collie mix we were excited to get her for our boys but sadly one of our boys is badly allergic to dogs to the point we can’t even pet or play with her and she needs some loving humans who can give that to her. She’s been an outdoor dog since we got her just due to this allergy and she loves being outside but I’m sure would love to be inside too! She’s does not bark, so if she needed to be left outside during the day, she’s very quiet and chill. She’s pretty chill unless she’s dying for some cuddles and play which we can’t give her right now. We’d love for her to find a good home where she can run around and also get that love and attention!

Story
Hi, I’m Bobbles, 2.5 years old, and 18 lbs of sweetness and perfection – at least that is what my foster mom tells me. I had a tough start to life and survived a distemper infection when I was a puppy. That left me with something called myoclonus which is an involuntary, rhythmic, or sporadic contraction of muscles, so basically, I’m twitching all the time. Or you can just play some music and say I’m dancing. The distemper also caused some tooth abnormalities, but RCHS gave me an extensive dental so I am good to go for a while now in that regard. My foster mom was curious about my breed mix, so she sent my cheek swabs off for DNA testing. Apparently, I’m chihuahua/pit bull, which I guess makes sense given my short and stocky physique. However that happened, I feel kinda sorry for my mom, especially if she was the chihuahua. But in any case, I’m so happy to be here, and the result was a stupendously cute dog, if I do say so myself!! I love everyone I have met so far, as well as cats and dogs. I especially enjoy playing with my foster brothers and sisters and would prefer to have a playmate. I have a bad tendency of trying to wander off when I am outside, so a fenced yard is a must – I can’t help it, I’m just a curious little thing and I'm ever-searching for the best sunny spot to have a little nap. All and all, I’m super excited that I’m ready to find my forever family!

Story
Well hi there - my name's Elanore, but my foster mom calls me Ellie! I’m a sweet little 14yr old, 13lb Chiweenie, with a frosty face and soft brown eyes, who lost her family a while back. I came to RCHS with numerous health problems: I had heartworm disease, multiple tumors and horrible dental disease. After months of treatments and a few surgeries, I’m all fixed up now and ready to live my bestest life!! I’m pretty laid back and love to nap, but then I’m a mature lady who doesn’t care to go crazy or chew things up. Toys, nope, they are for babies; just give me a soft doggie bed and a blanket or towel to cover myself during the day and I’m good! I like to follow foster mom around the house, as I feel safer when I know she is nearby, but otherwise, I’m pretty quiet. I like to sleep on the bed with mom and will cover myself up with a little doggie throw blanket. I just find it comforting to be close to my people. I’m fine with other dogs, except puppies who want to constantly play with me - I just can’t have that! After all, I’m a dignified mature lady! Older dogs who will leave me alone to nap are great, and cats don’t bother me a bit, I’m fine with them - they are usually much too snooty anyway. I don’t really bark, so I accidently learned how to jingle some bells that foster mom had hanging from the door knob, when I want to go outside to potty. Who says you have to be a puppy to learn new tricks!! Occasionally I forget to use the bells, but I will still go to the door. If you ask me if I have to go outside to potty, I will go with you to the door and go outside. At my age I’m not much of a jumper, so my foster mom bought a couple of foam stairs so I can get up on the couch and the bed at night and it only took me a few minutes to figure them out. I’m kind of smart like that. I’m looking for a quiet family, maybe with someone who is home most of the time, as I do get anxious when left by myself - but don’t worry, I won’t tear things up. I just get a bit scared that you aren’t coming back and I'll bounce all over when you do come back, so you will know how much I missed you. I probably would not do well in a house with little kids; maybe teens would be ok. I'm looking for a family who would understand that I’m an older lady, who no longer 'fetches' or plays with toys like a puppy, but would happily lay by them for pets and a few belly rubs.

Story
Hi, I'm Mark: Young, single, male with severe anxiety issues, looking for someone wanting a big, soft-hearted companion to chill with. I will pretty much be your shadow once I find you and I will make you happy to call me your own. I will contribute the following in exchange for a place to call home: I will bring you joy every time you give me a treat. (I take medicine every day for anxiety) I will lick the plates and bowls clean so you don’t have to spend so much time doing dishes. I promise they will be spotless. I will let you know when a person comes into our yard, knocks on the door; or even if they just happen to walk by our house and look at us, I mean you never know what they might be thinking. In return I would like a secure place to sleep - with you is my favorite place. I also really feel good on the couch or the big chair. A bowl of water and a bowl for food. I will need a promise to take me for walks and a fenced yard I can run around in. I also loved the dog park I went to. It was great fun! Cats? I don’t really care Chickens? They look fun but not worth chasing Children? I absolutely love the two littles that I live with now. One is 7 and one is 5. They play with me and it is so fun. Other dogs? It will take me a while to feel like they like me, but then we will be good buddies. This is the most important part - it will take me longer than usual to be comfortable with you. I will be very shy until I find my person. This 'person' is the one who takes the time to know me and read my nervous signals. This person will know that I get scared very easily and will take extra steps to get around the scary things. I really want to find my forever person. Please give me a chance to be the best furry pal you have ever known!
