Story
Shadow is a 5 year old male, neutered dog. I’ve had him since he was a puppy. Shadow is a sweet dog that loves to sleep by your feet on the bed. He loves being outside and in fact, would do best with someone who loves to be outside too. Before recently, we would go on long walks together. He doesn’t have much of a play drive besides being outside and running around (he doesn’t play with toys much). He does love a good chew bone. He’s gotten along with several cats we’ve had over the years and gets along with our small Boston Terrier. However, he does not seem to like other dogs in passing on walks and such. I’ve never taken him to a busy dog park so I’m unsure how he’d do there. He generally loves people. However, and this is why we are looking to rehome him, kids make him very nervous. Always have. And our LO is about 1 now (we’ve been trying to make it work this whole time) and it doesn’t seem fair to Shadow or the family to keep him. I’m running out of characters to type so ask Q’s!

Story
Say hello to Bella. We adopted this sweet girl in September. She is house trained and needs someone to continue working on her other training needs. She is very cuddly and playful. Unfortunately, she does not get along with our other dog and needs a home where she is the only animal. We will include her crate and toys. We can meet with you so you can see if this ball of love will fit into your home. Right now she can be overly enthusiastic so I’m not sure how she is with small children. She is also very food driven. Bella is 50 pounds and medium sized. She’s very strong and will need training and patience. If you think you can open your home to this sweet girl, let’s meet and see if she is right for you. Again, I highly recommend she be your only animal. Willing to waive the adoption fee for the right applicant. Thanks.

Story
Caspian AVAILABLE FOR: Adoption/Pawsitively Sure Trial Adoption BORN: March 2024 SEX: Male BREED: German Shepherd WEIGHT: 50 lbs. MARL ARRIVAL: Stray BACKGROUND: Caspian is a stunning white shepherd with looks to match his big, friendly personality. This handsome boy is full of energy and would love nothing more than to be your new running buddy. Whether it’s hitting the trails, going for long walks, or exploring the great outdoors, Caspian is always ready for the next adventure. When he’s not out and about, Caspian is just as happy to relax by your side. After a fun day of exercise, he loves nothing more than curling up next to you on the couch, soaking up all the attention and companionship he can get. Caspian is the perfect mix of active and affectionate, ready to keep up with your lifestyle while also being a loyal, loving companion at home. If you’re looking for a dog who can be both your adventure partner and your cuddle buddy, Caspian might be your perfect match. COMPATIBILITY: Based on our evaluation, we feel that Caspian has the potential to get along with other dogs. Caspian would do best in a home without cats. MEDICAL NEEDS: Caspian has tested positive for heartworm and is currently receiving treatment. His treatment includes a course of oral antibiotics and a series of injections, all provided and covered by MARL. We’re hoping Caspian can enter a foster-to-adopt home during this time, with all treatments scheduled through our vet at MARL. Once his treatment is complete, we can finalize his adoption. ADOPTION FEE: $250
