Story

Did someone say "crabby?" Fooled ya! That's just my face. I'm a sweet, loving, and friendly boy. My foster sister calls me uncoordinated and goofy, but really, I just love the simple things- lounging on the couch, napping in the sun, and enjoying nice, easy walks. I also love playing with a ball or frisbee. I sometimes get too excited and I've been working on not being too jumpy, but I promise I'm learning! I get along well with other dogs and their humans. Other animals? I'm still figuring them out. I've already learned a few tricks too! Sit, down, wait, stay, and come- and my foster family says I have great table manners. My bathroom manners need some work but I'm nearly there. If you're looking for a chill, cuddly companion to share your couch with, I'm your guy!

Story

Hi! I'm Mabel (sometimes my foster mom calls me Mabelina). I'm 3 years old and an 80 pound gentle soul with a sweet personality. I'm housebroken, crate trained, and know all the basics: sit, stay, come, and crate. At home I go right into my crate without a fuss, though in a brand new place I might whine for a few minutes while I settle in. I'm fantastic on leash and love to stop for the occasional sniff. I'm good with other dogs, not reactive, and if I get curious on a walk, I'm easily redirected. My favorite things? Gathering my toys into one area, chewing on my chew toys, or gnawing my Kong stuffed with peanut butter.... Yummmm! Add napping throughout the day to the list! Oh and most of all, being near my human. I'm a low to moderate energy type of girl who's just looking for love, loyalty, and a forever spot by your side. If you're looking for a sweet companion who will make your home feel cozy and loved, I'd be honored to be your girl. -Mabel

Story

Meet Benny, the Boxer mix! This sweet girl is about 6 years old and an 80lbs ball of love. Since coming into her foster home, she has been such a lovebug. She is pretty low energy, and wants nothing more than to gaze into your eyes and receive cuddles. Seriously, she loves looking deep into her humans' eyes. Her fosters thought she would sprain her tail because she wags it so hard every time she looks at them. Benny's previous life was clearly hard but family life makes her so happy. She would do well in a home where she is not alone for more than 6 hours at a time because she is happiest with her people. Benny loves the two young boys in her foster home, has enjoyed countless visits from other kids over the age of 7, and is always gentle as can be, despite her large size. She basks in attention from people of any age, strangers included. She spends her time trying to get her entire giant body on your lap as soon as you sit down, and jumping up to give you a full body hug. She is very mellow. Ever content with running around the yard, roughhousing with her dog brothers, having bones to chew, and 1-2 walks a day. She is very strong, and this is only apparent when she is on leash. She goes after squirrels and bunnies and needs a strong handler to walk her. She has not yet been introduced to a cat, but she is exceedingly gently with her family, even the geckos, so she might do well with slow introductions. Ask to meet Benny today!

Story

Play hard, nap harder. Meet Sammie, the pup who does it all! Sammie is a loving, energetic pup who adores playing fetch and making new dog friends! She is the sweetest cuddle bug I have ever met; I often wake up in the morning to find she has wiggled into my arms, her head on my chest. If my resident dog weren’t a cranky old man, she would be a welcome addition to our pack. Sammie does great with other dogs and takes correction well. She shares food, toys, beds with no hesitation. She is potty trained and knows sit and come. Her recall is great 90% of the time she gets better with her leash training everyday – She is strong and athletic! I like to tire her out with a long run or game of frisbee in the morning. This sweet girl also loves blanket forts and romping around with a blanket over her head. Other hobbies include wriggling around on her back and gazing adoringly at her humans. Sammie would do well in a home with other dogs. Sammie has a high prey drive and would do best in a home without small pets. She has lots of happy energy outside and lots of napping energy inside.
