Meet Lotus! Her favorite things are sniffy walks and gettingtreats from her people. Lotus is a sweet, young, sensitive pup looking foran understanding family who is willing to use positive reinforcement tobuild confidence and teach her how to be a well-mannered grown-up-pup. Sheis full of energy and will make a great companion for an active family.Lotus prefers the company of human friends to canine friends and wants tobe your only dog (for now), but we think she would enjoy having dog friendsto go on walks with.

Story
Meet Jade, a charming older gal looking for that special someone to be the center of her world. Jade is a busy lady who would thrive in a quiet environment with a consistent routine and a family who is ready to make adjustments as she continues to settle in. She lived with children in her previous home, but was worried or overwhelmed when there was too much commotion, so she would do best in a lower-traffic home--if there are kids in the home, they should be able to follow her management plan.Jade can be a tad worried when meeting new people, but once she warms up, she is falling into your lap wanting endless pets. She says no thank you to living with dogs right now, please! Jade was reportedly scared of the cat in the previous home, so would prefer any cats in the home to be mellow and tolerant, and would need full separation onto start.Jade is on a prescription diet to help with previously diagnosed bladder stones. Her adopter will need close follow up with a vet to continue this!

Story
Meet Marv! He has the most expressive eyes and a long list of favoritethings. He would make a great companion on long strolls where he loves tokeep his nose to the ground. He enjoys playtime and walks with otherdogs. Marv is also a fan of his people. He loves toys and keeping busywith engaging activities. Marv is looking for a home where he can relaxand learn the lay of the land. He is hoping for a family that is willingto learn about him and respond to his signals with training and positivereinforcement for good choices. Marv has had positive interactions with dogs but would need a thoughtful introduction. He should have a thoughtful introduction to a dog who shouldhave a complementary personality to Marv. We do not know if Marv has livedwith cats. He could be successful with a thoughtful introduction. We alsoare not aware of Marv living with children. He could live with children whocan participate in his training plan, practice petting consent, and cangive Mav space when he needs it.
