Story
Jenni Fostered in North Bay Adoption fee: $700 Vaccinated & Spayed Microchipped 2 Years old I come with 30 days of free Pet Insurance Hi everyone! My name is Jenni and I’m a beautiful Baladi girl full of spunk and energy. My favorite things to do are play with my foster sister, chew on bones and toys, and spending as much time as possible outside. I love having a large yard as my zoomies are epic! I am working very hard on my recall and some basic commands. I am also working on my leash manners because I just want to go everywhere and smell everything but I promise I am getting better with all these new things my foster parents are doing with me. I am very food motivated and I love food puzzles. I am really good at solving them too! I do love rope toys to tug with and I may start tugging on your clothes to get you to play with me. Grab a rope and I’ll tug you off your chair. I am fully housetrained and crate trained. I also am really good at not fighting over my kibble; my doggy sister and I eat side by side and switch bowls all the time with no issues. My foster parents have always made sure to play with me while I am eating to make sure I don’t have any agression that way; however, human food is my weakness and I like to counter surf and try to steal food off the plates! I am working on that and doing really well but I still need to be watched or your food will be mine. I am a typical Baladi dog and I love to bark at the world! If you don’t know a lot about us Baladis, please read up about the breed. I am intelligent, athletic, loyal and protective. I absolutely love my humans. Like most Baladi dogs, I need a dog friend and a big yard to run and play. I think I’d prefer a boy that’s around my size (or bigger) so my rough play style doesn’t scare or hurt them. I am okay with new people coming into the house as long they are calm and allow me time to settle down. I will bark but give me a few minutes and maybe some of my favorite treats and I will be friends with you. I love car rides when I’m free but don’t like to be locked in a crate. My foster parents love taking me for walks through the doggy stores and I behave well in them. I will even going up and sniff new people with little hesitation. I haven’t spent much time around kids lately, but am no stranger with them.

Story
Tonka Fostered in London, On Adoption Fee: $700 Vaccinated, Neutered & Microchipped Good with cats & kids Selective with dogs (large) 1yr old Chihuahua I come with 30 days of free Pet Insurance Tonka is a handsome 1-year-old male with a heart as big as his love for cuddles! If you're looking for a loyal companion who would rather snuggle on the couch than stir up trouble, Tonka may be your perfect match! This sweet boy gets along well with cats and has a gentle, easygoing personality. While he does have a playful side, he's much more interested in being close to his people and soaking up all the affection he can get! Tonka is working hard to learn that the world around him is a safe and welcoming place. Leash training is still a work in progress, but he has been making progress and, with continued patience and consistency, we know he'll gain confidence in no time. Tonka is crate trained and sees his crate as his safe space—a cozy spot where he can relax and feel secure. You may notice Tonka wearing a belly band, and that's perfectly okay! He's still learning the ropes of house training and understanding that outdoor potty breaks are the way to go. With guidance, routine, and encouragement, he's continuing to make great strides every day. Tonka is truly a lover, not a fighter. One of the best things about Tonka is his adorable quirky personality. His funny little shenanigans and charming expressions are sure to keep you smiling and laughing every day. Tonka is ready to meet you, are you ready to meet Tonka?

Story
Echo Fostered in North Bay, On Adoption Fee: $700 Vaccinated, Neutered & Microchipped Great with dogs, cats & kids 1.5yr old Siberian Husky I come with 30 days of free Pet Insurance Echo is a friendly, affectionate boy who just wants to be close to his people. Whether he’s laying beside you on the couch or following you around the house, he’s happiest simply being part of your space. Inside the home, Echo is calm and relaxed, making him a wonderful companion for cozy evenings and quiet days alike. Echo gets along very well with cats and has shown he can peacefully coexist with feline friends. He’s curious when it comes to other dogs, though he does best avoiding smaller dogs. On walks, Echo does well overall, though he can pull a little at times when something catches his attention. He’s very curious about the world around him, he loves new sights, smells, and people. One thing Echo absolutely LOVES is car rides — he’s always ready to hop in and go for an adventure! He also loves playing fetch and would be thrilled to have someone who enjoys playtime as much as he does. We have found that Echo LOVES the outdoors! Whether it’s exploring trails, playing at the beach, or soaking up the sunshine! . A home that enjoys fresh air, walks, and playtime would be Echo's dream come true! Echo is very food motivated and eager to learn, which has helped him pick up basic commands like “sit” and “gentle,” and he’s doing great with learning “stay.” He can howl a little when left alone, but otherwise he’s a very quiet and easygoing dog, he is also grasping this crate training thing without any issues as well! Echo is looking for a forever home where he can continue building confidence, enjoy lots of love and companionship, and be your loyal best friend for years to come.
