Story
We welcomed this sweet girl into our home when our oldest son's new job no longer allowed him to give her the time and care she deserves. From the beginning, our goal has been to foster her while helping her find a permanent, loving home. She is a 2-year-old female who is fully up to date on vaccinations and already spayed. She has a lot of energy paired with a very affectionate, loyal personality. She resembles a small Belgian Malinois, though we are unsure of her exact breed. She is well-behaved indoors and does not chew on household items, though she enjoys appropriate chew treats. She can be protective of her family and may occasionally snarl if she feels scared; this behavior has decreased significantly during her time with us and may be related to being left alone for long periods as a puppy. She loves playing fetch and frisbee with our 11-year-old son and previously lived very happily alongside our German Shepherd. She would do best with an active owner or family.

Story
His name is Ziggy because he likes to walk in a zig zag on the sidewalk! We found him after he had been dumped. He got comfortable with our cats very quickly. He’s a little nervous when inside (we think he may have been an exclusively outside dog) but we’ve been working with him on it and he’s getting really comfortable! He loves to play and wear sweaters. So so so sweet, I can’t believe someone abandoned him. He is not neutered, but if the cost of neutering influences your decision to take him, let me know and maybe we can help. We just want him to have a loving home. Please reach out with any and all questions and let me know if you want to meet him!
