You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Hi there! I’m Dallas, and I’d love to tell you a little about myself. ❤️ I’m a pretty special guy who is just beginning to discover what it really means to be a dog. I came from a breeder, and for the first part of my life, things looked very different. Now, I’m learning about all the wonderful things I get to experience as a beloved family dog—and let me tell you, I’m loving every minute of it! I’m crate trained and potty trained, and I’m working hard on my leash skills. I’m still learning, but I’m doing pretty well! I love going for runs, exploring new places, and taking in all the exciting sights and smells the world has to offer. And when it’s time to relax, I’m perfectly happy curling up with my favorite bone for some very serious chewing. I’m a sweet, friendly boy who absolutely loves attention. Belly rubs? Yes, please! Cuddles? Absolutely! Tell me how handsome I am while giving me lots of pets? Well, I could definitely get used to that! I’m also a pretty easygoing guy. I get along well with other dogs, cats, and kids, and honestly, I’m happiest when I’m with my people. I enjoy hanging out inside, relaxing in my crate, or stretching out on a comfy bed and showing off my impressive couch-potato skills. I’m still learning about all the little things that make life wonderful—cozy beds, favorite toys, adventures, cuddles, and having people who love me just because I’m me. But I’m ready to keep learning. What I’m really looking for is a family who will be patient with me, help me continue discovering the world, love me unconditionally, and maybe spoil me just a little. In return, I promise to give you plenty of love, companionship, cuddles, and those adorable “I’m your dog now” looks. I’ve waited a long time to discover what it feels like to have a family of my own. Could you be the family I’ve been waiting for? If you think we could be the perfect match, please apply to adopt me today at www.buffalocares.org. I can’t wait to meet you! ❤️ Love, Dallas ADOPTION FEE: $600.00 RR48Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.All dogs come fully up to date on shots, microchipped, heart worm tested, de-wormed, on flea and heart worm preventative, and spayed/neutered.  If interested in learning more or adopting please fill out an application on our website at www.buffalocares.org.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Hi there! My name is Wonder Boy—though my foster mom just calls me Wonder, because she says it’s a wonder how much love can fit in such a handsome little pup. I’ve got a pretty big milestone coming up, and I really hope you can help me reach it! My mama and I were brought into rescue together when I was just a tiny guy. Guess what? Mama recently found her forever home! I am so happy for her, but now it’s my turn to find a family of my very own to grow up with. A Little About Me: Age: 3 months old (the perfect age for puppy snuggles and play!) Looks: Unbelievably handsome (or so I’m told every day). Dog Status: A+! I absolutely love playing with all my foster dog siblings. Cat Status: Unknown—I haven't met a feline friend yet, but I’m young enough to learn! Kid Status: I went to an adoption event and discovered that kids are awesome playmates. Just keep in mind I still have my sharp little puppy teeth, so I’m learning to be gentle with little hands. My Favorite Things: The Great Outdoors: I love running around outside, rolling in the soft green grass, and finding the absolute best-sticks to chew on. Treats: I will do almost anything for a yummy snack! (Which is great news, because we’re using them to master this whole "potty training" thing.) Making Friends: Dogs, kids, humans—if you want to play, I’m your guy. My Routine: I'll be honest with you: my crate isn't my absolute favorite place in the world, but I'm learning that it's a safe spot to rest. I’m a total champ at sleeping in it all night long without a peep! Once morning comes, though? I am ready to play! "I’m just a sweet, playful little guy looking for a family to love, guide me as I grow, and give me a place to call forever." Could you be the forever home I’ve been waiting for? Apply to adopt me today @ BuffaloCares.org! â¤ï¸ Adoption Fee $475.00                    RR48Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.All dogs come fully up to date on shots, microchipped, heart worm tested, de-wormed, on flea and heart worm preventative, and spayed/neutered.  If interested in learning more or adopting please fill out an application on our website at www.buffalocares.org.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Hi there! My name is Eliza, and I’m a big-hearted girl weighing in around 50–60 pounds of love. I’m a mixed breed with a sweet soul, and my favorite thing in the world is being close to my people. Whether we’re curled up together in bed or relaxing on the couch for a TV marathon, I’m happiest right by your side. I also love getting outside for walks, especially if I can find a good stick to carry around like a prize! Toys are another favorite of mine — squeaky rubber toys are the absolute best if you ask me. I get along well with boy dogs and even enjoy playing with cats. I’m crate trained and housebroken too! I’ll even let you know when I need to go outside because I learned how to ring a bell at the door. Pretty smart, right? Because I’m a strong girl, I do need a sturdy crate that can keep up with me. Sometimes I can be a little shy when meeting new people, but once I see that my human trusts you, I warm up quickly. I just need a little patience and reassurance. I’m a special girl looking for a special person — someone willing to give me guidance, understanding, and love. In return, I promise to give you my whole heart. Could you be the one I’ve been waiting for?

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Hello, my name is Casina!! I am the sweetest and most beautiful girl you are ever going to meet, well that is what my foster mom says anyway. I have the most beautiful unique coat. Freindly....YES!!!  I just love everyone I meet. If you look deep into my beautiful green eyes, you can definitely see the sweetness pour out.  I am ready to find my forever family, who will love me always and forever. Let me tell you more about me; I love all my foster siblings, we enjoy romping in the backyard together and discovering all the new smells of the season. I love toys of all kinds, but I am also happy to relax chewing on a bone. I think I could make a good walking or hiking partner, because wherever you are is where I would want to be. I wouldn’t mind helping to keep you warm at night, either cuddling on your lap or sleeping right in bed with you, even though the nights are getting warmer doesn’t mean we still still can’t share the covers. Although I am also crate trained and I will sleep in it all night without a peep (show me a cookie and I will go right in) but once morning comes I make this little whining noise to let you know it is time for us to get up and start our day. So, what do you say, would you like to meet me and see if we can be best friends forever?? I am waiting for a family to call my own and if you are looking for a sweet girl like me, please out an application @BuffaloCares.org.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Hi everyone! My name is Murphy! I’m a Rhodesian Ridgeback mix, and my foster mom says I’m a pretty handsome dude… what do you think? I’m a super sweet boy with a big heart, and I love to snuggle—it’s one of my favorite things to do! Whether it’s with my foster mom or anyone who enjoys a good cuddle, I’m all in. Could that be you? I live with lots of other dogs, including my three siblings, and we all get along great. I love toys—any kind, really—but stuffies, bones, and ropes are my favorites. If I can chew it, I’m a happy pup! I also love a good game of tug-of-war with my siblings… and sometimes I even let them win I get super excited to meet new people! I’ve been to some special events where I got lots of attention, and let me tell you—I loved every second of it. I’ve spent time with both adults and kids, and I think they’re all so much fun. I’m working hard on my potty training and doing really well when I stick to a schedule. I’m also crate trained—I’m perfectly fine hanging out in there when my humans are away, and I sleep through the night without a peep. That said, I wouldn’t mind upgrading to a comfy bed where we can keep each other company and share sweet dreams. I love being outside, especially now that the weather is getting warmer. I’m not a big fan of the cold, but maybe with a cozy coat, I could learn to like it! I’m just starting to learn about leashes, and with a little guidance, I’ll be ready for all kinds of adventures and family walks. If you think I might be the perfect addition to your home, I’d love to meet you and show you just how much love I have to give Apply to adopt me @buffalocares.org!   Adoption Fee: $475.00 RR48 Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.All dogs come fully up to date on shots, microchipped, heart worm tested, de-wormed, on flea and heart worm preventative, and spayed/neutered.  If interested in learning more or adopting please fill out an application on our website at www.buffalocares.org.
