Meet Gretchen – The Queen Bee in TrainingGretchen is a 5-year-old, 56-pound sweetheart who’s trying so hard to make fetch happen (and by fetch, we mean finding her forever home). She’s got that perfect blend of pep and poise—fun and energetic, but not a total chaos gremlin. She’s affectionate, loves attention from her people, and will totally remember if you didn’t tell her she’s pretty today.With other dogs, she’s confident and forward—but always polite. Just like the real Gretchen Wieners, she’s all about socializing and building her squad (just, you know, without the backstabbing). But cats? Yeah, they’re not in her Burn Book for no reason—so a feline-free home, please.If you`re looking for a loyal bestie who will totally share her treats (but maybe not her secrets), Gretchen’s your girl. You can sit with her.

Meet Gus – 58 Pounds of Pure Personality!At seven years young, Gus still has pep in his step and a prance that could steal the spotlight in any dog parade. He’s a lovable guy with just the right mix of energy and maturity—ready to be your loyal sidekick for walks, couch cuddles, and everything in between.Gus would thrive in a home with older kids who can be part of his continued training and help him show off just how smart he really is. While he may be able to live with another dog, he’d probably prefer to be your one and only fur-child (he’s a bit of a spotlight hog, and honestly, he rocks the solo act).If you`re looking for a dog who struts through life with charm, enthusiasm, and an irresistible face—you just found him.
