Story
Grizzly is a 5 year old red nose pit. He’s a couch potato but loves being outdoors. He loves the water, going on hikes, getting treats, and chasing after squirrels. He needs a home that will give him lots of love, as he has much to give. He also needs an owner who can dedicate some time to train him, as he is a covid puppy and did not get much interaction with other animals. He truly is a sweetie.

Story
Freddie is a very happy and friendly girl who loves to be with people. She enjoys playing with toys and balls and to romp in the yard. Freddie is well behaved, knows sit, paw and is still working on her leash manners as she tends to pull when she gets excited. Freddie enjoys belly rubs and peanut butter Kongs. She gets along with most dogs; we do not know what she thinks of cats. She had been surrendered by her previous owner for difficulty with housetraining. Freddie has been seen by a specialist, had an ultrasound and placed on Proin, a pill used to tighten the bladder sphincter muscle to help control urine leakage. The pill has helped her immensely and she will most likely need to be on it for the rest of her life. At the shelter, housebreaking has been going very slow as Freddie has been confused as to what should be done outside and not inside and the staff and dog walkers are doing their best to help her. Freddie is only a year old and 59 pounds. She is looking or someone who would be willing to give her the chance and time to become a loving member of the family. Could this be you?
