Story
Hello everyone, I'm Manny! I'm a unique looking dog with a big personality. I was found camping in the woods on Mann St. but I'm looking for a new place to call home. I'm a chow mix that loves to sunbathe, soaking up the summer rays. I'm happiest when I get lots of scratches, snacking on my favorite treats, or just lounging around. I have a small hitch in my step but this happy go lucky boy doesn't let that slow me down. I spent a lot of time alone at first, not sure who to trust. I was covered in ticks and scratches from trying to go it solo for so long. When I needed help the most, the nice people at Cass County Animal Control helped me come out of my shell. They cleaned me up and gave me a nice place to stay until I find my forever family. Since then, I've been able to let my true colors shine. I would love it if you came to visit me, take me for walks, and possibly take me home!

Story
I don't mind the company of other dogs. I知 the most lovable snaggle-toothed dog you値l meet. I will be 4 this year. I love any attention I can get, and I知 a very curious girl. I知 very silly too!\xA0Whenever I get excited, typically with food, I snort like a pig! The kennels do put me a little down in the dumps, I just miss having a home. The humans here sure do a great job at lifting my spirits with walks which are a huge hit in my world.

Not good with cats,
Story
Meet Titan, the guy who has a heart as big as his body. Despite his size, he is a very gentle soul. He loves to spend his time with people soaking up all the attention he can get. Titan walks amazing on leash - kid tested and approved! He loves to be outside exploring wherever you take him. Titan is your typical Akita - mighty and athletic. He would need a home with a taller fence or supervised/leashed outings. Titans' favorite human food is chicken, so he will need to stray from those critters also. However, given the right set up, Titan is bound to make a perfect addition to the family. Titan wishes you would come to the shelter and meet him, for a nice snack he will even shake your hand like the gentleman he is.\xA0
