Story
Hey, I'm Hugh and I'm HUGELY popular around here because I get along with all big people! I do prefer to be an only child!  I pack my HUGE personality into a medium size package of doggone cuteness. My list of needs is NOT huge at all though - just a family that loves hugs and kisses. A fenced in yard would be great or you could take me jogging with you or we can binge watch Netflix. I'm HUGELY flexible. See the theme yet? OH - and you can do one more thing. It goes likes this: throw ball. take wet ball from my mouth, throw ball, take wet ball from my mouth, admire my adorableness as I run after ball.  The other thing you can do is ask about meeting me because I think you will have a HUGE desire to adopt ME!  I'm not a fan of the crate but I'm comfy in the laundry room and I am a good boy when left alone free - I do not chew or mark. I'm a very well behaved boy! ##1354369##

Story
Are you an active person? Like hiking and being outdoors? Then I'm the dog for you. I'm kylo and I was surrendered by my owner because I wouldn't hunt. What can I say? I'm a lover, not a fighter. I'm about 3 1/2 and housetrained and crate trained.  And, if it couldn't get any better I'm good with dogs and cats. It would be great if I had a dog friend too. I would be at my best with older children. Sometimes I forget how big I am. So hurry before you miss out on getting your new best friend. ##1626861##

Story
Hi. My name is Marley and my Foster Mom says I am the sweetest, cutest and funniest little girl. I love being in my fenced backyard with my Foster Brother, whether we are playing tug, running and chasing the squirrels, tossing my toys and being goofy, or just laying in the sun. I eat good, am potty trained, and am great in my crate after getting used to it and will go into it even just to relax! I am still a little shy until I get to know you, which doesn't take long. I am so loving and love to jump up to get big hugs from my peeps. I really enjoy treats. I am still a puppy so I am still learning all about dog life! I would love to be the newest member of your pack!  ##1672023##
