Story

Ares is a goofy, enthusiastic guy who approaches life with his whole heart. He’s an affectionate, people-loving dog who thrives on connection and is always excited to be part of whatever’s happening around him. Whether he’s playing a game of tug or fetch, soaking up attention, or leaning in for a solid round of butt scratches, Ares is happiest when he’s with people. He has a fun, energetic personality and would love an adopter who enjoys staying active and including their dog in daily adventures. Ares does well with other dogs. He may need a little time to warm up at first, but once he does, he’s all in and ready to play. He’s been enjoying the comfort of a consistent routine and is doing great with training. He already knows sit and down and is currently working on place. At the end of a busy day, Ares is more than happy to settle in for cuddles and quality time. He would be a wonderful match for someone looking for an adventure buddy who also appreciates a good snuggle on the couch.

Good with kids, Good with dogs, Good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Bowie is a happy, excited guy! He has a lot of energy and he's ready to find a home where he has room to play, potentially with another doggy friend. He's smart and has a lot of love to give. His foster says "Talk about one of the sweetest dogs ever! He did have some separation anxiety so we switched from him being allowed in part of my house to being in an XXL kennel which he does very well in during the day while I am at work. Walking on a leash is absolutely no problem, he loves to sniff and explore his surroundings but never pulls on the leash. He loves riding in cars and learned today car rides are WAY better if you let him hang his head out of the window 🥰. Bowie loves to lounge around the house and sleeps through the night with no problem, he will sleep in if you let him. He does well with my other dog although he doesn’t love to share his toys, but food aggression has gotten so much better in the past two weeks. Bowie also knows sit, shake and lay down which he loves to show off for a good treat!"
