Story
Meet Jeter. He was found. I tried to find his owner and we had no luck. He’s still a puppy. He is playful. He has been around our kids from as young as 1 years old. Never has even growled at them… he’s gentle with our toddlers. He is potty trained and has done well in the crate at bedtime with no issues. He loves running outside and would do great with a big yard. We don’t put him on a lease and he doesn’t run off. You can tell whoever he belonged to had trained him some because it shows. I want him to go to a great home.Also: ChatGPT said he looks like an Australian kelpie. And so did Google. But I honestly have no idea.

Story
Speki is a sweet, purebred husky who was never supposed to stay with us, but we have tried to make it work. She gets along well with our other dogs and cats, but she needs to be in a home with much fewer animals. She deserves more one on one time and attention.

Story
Boombastic, another fantastic pup! One might say he`s `hellafantastic` IYKYK:) Boombastic eagerly walked through the streams of water from the heavy rain. I could see him enjoying a hike through the forest, exploring a creek or playing in your yard. A neutered young adult male weighing 46lbs, he comes microchipped AND has a sponsored adoption fee. Boombastic is easy on the leash, food motivated and has the prettiest eyes. Meet him today!Dogs over 40 pounds are always FREE. Adoptions include spay/neuter, up-to-date shots, one free training session with Micky`s House, one month free membership @ PG&Js dog park, and more!
