*Woof* I`m in a foster home! Email my foster caregiver to meet me: scottbromley@outlook.comCrema is just too cute for words. He’s an inquisitive little puppy who has perfected the pleading puppy-dog face — and you’re guaranteed to fall for him the moment you meet him. This smart Retriever mix is ready to go straight to the top of the class with positive training. He wants love, reassurance, and gentle guidance as he grows. Crema is a wee bit bashful right now, but with patience and support, he’s already beginning to bloom. If you’re looking for a fantastic dog and are ready to help him become the best pooch he can be, meet and adopt Crema today. He’s a wonderful pup with so much love to give.

Story
Amazon Prime is sponsoring my adoption fees!*I`m in a foster home* To meet me reach out to my foster caregiver at kimseidl@proton.me. - pocket size - super snuggly - motivated for trainingMeet little Miss Tater. She`s a 40 pound pocket pup mix with a little pittie and 99% Wiggle. She is the happiest dog you could ever hope to meet and tap dances while folding herself in half with excitement and any attention you give her- just the slightest look in her direction will set her tail in motion and she`ll crawl in and grab your arm for belly rub time. She can`t wait to see you in the morning, get the morning zoomies and settle in for some good food toys followed by a snuggly snooze. She knows how to fetch and loves her Wubba. She is incredibly food motivated and we`re currently working on some confidence building and training with sit/stay, and loose leash walking. She just started working on `touch` and instead of nose booping, she gives the cutest little kisses! She would love to keep working with you- especially if you have treats!. If you`d like to know more about this sweet little girl, contact her foster mom for more info.

*Woof* I am in a foster home! Email my foster parent to meet me: ekurland@humanerescuealliance.org.Impala was featured on WTOP`s Pet of the Week - check it out! https://www.instagram.com/reel/DbpMUSCs6Vn/?igsh=MTJ6dmZ5dnYxbDZoeg== - has lived with other dogsOh how I live up to my name! See, an impala is a graceful African antelope with reddish-brown fur and powerful jumping ability. My coat is a strikingly beautiful red-brown color and I move so gracefully that I have been called `Impala Ballerina` by some. Luckily, I have been learning to exercise my jumping skills to moments when it is appropriate. I may need some continued support in this area (the main issue here being that I get so so excited when I see my friends that I feel urged to express it in bouncing up and down even if it is not exercise time).I have begun studies of other doggie manners as well and have earned A+ ratings for my prompt sit and for my hand targeting skills. I think I am all set up for success in my new home! Could this be yours?
