Story
Buddy is our local escape artist! He’d love to get out of here and he go on lots of trips where he gets to do just that and he is quite well behaved. As an example one volunteer said: “He was so sweet, well-behaved, friendly, and easy, and he had a blast! Buddy got into the car and road in the backseat with no issues. On the way back, he decided to maximum cuddle time and stretched over the consul to enjoy scritches (he didn`t push it, stayed safe and polite). Buddy was mostly all about the sniffing at the park and walking beside the river, but he did perk up when humans walked by - hilariously, he seemed extra into men in hats. He didn`t get to meet any people until we went to Nuckoll`s, where he and a server did some big and adorable cuddling. He also very nicely accepted some pets and well wishes from other patrons. Buddy had zero dog reactivity, even when we saw a few off-leash dogs. He showed no prey drive, ignoring even a lizard that nearly ran over his paw. He was awesome on leash all day, and after he got some quality sniffing done, became more responsive with us, especially in the car. He was also [a] perfect patio dog.”He weighs about 54 pounds and is about 7 years old. Come see if you could be Buddy’s best buddy and take him to see the big world he`s so excited and curious aboutBuddy’s adoption fee has been paid by a special volunteer. He is neutered and microchipped and has age-appropriate vaccinations. A licensing/microchip fee may apply depending on where his adopter lives.

Hi my name is Niles. Look at how majestic I am. I am about 53 lbs and about 1 year and 7 months old. I am very excited to meet you. One volunteer said this about me: `He jumped into my car easily with treats offered. We went to the rail yard which was much more crowded than I anticipated. He’s very polite and stands quietly while people make a fuss over him. He is very handsome after all. He really took to a certain lady we visited with and sat by her side. Very cute. Niles saw dogs, but didn’t show interest in them. We didn’t get right up close to them and he also didn’t want to do that. A train came along, something I’m sure he’s never seen and he stood and stared. Curious, not fearful. He’s a lovely little dog and I hope he’s finds the perfect family to adopt him.` Don`t I sound like a perfect new member of your home!Niles’s adoption fee has been paid for by a special volunteer. He is neutered and microchipped and has age-appropriate vaccinations. A licensing may apply.

What dog is strong and handsome like Gaston, or as sweet as Gaston? Gaston is 7 years old and weighs 80 pounds. Gaston has been a chill dude while at the shelter. He has met many dogs that he`s gotten along well with, but he`s ready to settle down, maybe on a porch with a nice bowl of water after a long day of sniffing around and getting plenty of treats.A volunteer paints Gaston`s personality at the shelter best “Gaston paused on the trail, head aloft, clearly enjoying the perhaps unfamiliar scents carried in the wind. This occurred several times, and it was lovely to see.”Gaston’s adoption fee is $100. He is neutered and microchipped and has age-appropriate vaccinations. A licensing fee may apply.
