What a great pup! Mateo is 6 months old and already 44 lbs. He is doing awesome with his crate training and is a dream to train. He has a mild temperament and gets along with dogs and migrates to kids. This handsome boy will make an excellent companion for outdoor sports. He just wants to be with his person and learn the world with structure. Mateo also, as you can see, knows how to chill out on the couch. No telling him to go lay down. He's there!

Story
Turk is sweet, lovable 4 year old dog(111 lbs) who believes he's a lap dog. Turk is a Saint Berdoodle that we purchased from a local breeder. He is affectionate and loyal once he feels comfortable and gets to know you. Turk has a timid personality, especially around new people. He does best in a calm, lower activity home, as a lot of activity or unfamiliar people can make him nervous. He prefers not to have strangers approach him right away. A few things about Turk: Turk is neutered and microchipped, Completely house trained, crate trained, sweet and loving, listens well to commands, trained with an electronic collar and accustomed to an electric fence; he has always respected the fence boundary, does best with a predictable routine and quieter environment, needs patience meeting new people. Looking for a home that has a yard, calm environment, patience and stability and someone that understands his personality. He is good with other dogs. He has not been around any other animals.

Story
Goose is a 6-year-old German Shepherd with a big heart, a loyal spirit, and just the right amount of goofy charm! After his previous owner made the difficult decision to surrender him, Goose is ready to find a family to call his own.Like a true German Shepherd, Goose is devoted to his people and takes his job of loving and protecting them seriously. When he`s off duty, you`ll find him splashing in the pool, snoozing in a cozy bed, proudly playing with his favorite buckets, or keeping the neighborhood squirrels on their toes!Goose has done well with older children and would thrive in a home with someone who understands and appreciates the German Shepherd breed. If you`re looking for a smart, faithful companion who`s equal parts guardian and goofball, Goose might just be your perfect match!If this dog has been successful in our play groups it is not a guarantee that a dog will be social with other dogs in their home or in public settings. Dogs are individuals and have personality conflicts, just like us. Play groups do not guarantee that territorial or resource guarding issues will not surface in the home.

Story
Hi there! My name is Stitch, and if you`re looking for a best friend who can keep you laughing, keep you company, and occasionally convince you that belly rubs should be a full-time activity, then I think we should meet.I`m what the humans here call `the total package.` I love toys, fetch, tug-of-war, zooming around the yard, and pretty much any game that involves having fun. If there`s a squeaky toy nearby, there`s a very good chance I`ll be investigating it. I also enjoy chewing on Kongs and bones, chasing and pouncing on toys, and showing off my impressive ability to entertain myself when needed.After all that excitement, though, I`m more than happy to transform into a cuddle expert. I love being close to my people, whether that`s curling up beside you on the couch, leaning against your leg, or volunteering for belly rub duty. My previous family described me as affectionate, friendly, playful, and even a bit of a lap dog. Personally, I think `professional snuggler` sounds more impressive.Like most young dogs, I still have plenty of enthusiasm for life. Sometimes I get so excited to meet new people that I forget my manners and jump up to say hello. I`ve lived with children between the ages of 6 and 10 and did well with them, although my excitement can occasionally get the better of me.The good news is that I`m smart, eager, and very motivated by attention.You may notice that I walk a little differently than some other dogs. I was born with a deformity in my back right leg caused by an angular limb deformity, which affected the way the bones grew as I developed. The veterinary team here consulted with an orthopedic surgeon and determined that I am currently comfortable and doing well without surgery or amputation. Sometimes it may cause me mild discomfort, but honestly, I don`t spend much time worrying about it. I have too many important things to do, like chasing toys, making friends, and seeing if you`re available for cuddles. My leg is just one small part of my story, not the thing that defines me.What I`m really looking for is a family who will love me, laugh with me, play with me, and continue helping me grow into the amazing dog I`m meant to be. I promise to bring plenty of affection, entertainment, and companionship in return. If you`re searching for a sweet, goofy, loving sidekick with a big heart and an even bigger personality, I think your search may be over.What do you say? Let`s start our happily

Story
Hi, I`m Janie!I`m about 2 years old, and while my story started out a little rough, I`m hoping the next chapter is the best one yet. I was found out on my own as a stray, but now I`m safe and waiting for a family to give me the forever home I`ve been dreaming about.If there`s one thing you should know about me, it`s that I absolutely love people. Being close to my favorite humans is my happy place. Whether we`re going for a car ride, sharing a pup cup, working on training, or just relaxing together, I`m happiest when I`m by your side. I love being brushed, soaking up affection, and leaning in close for pets. Honestly, I never seem to get tired of being loved on!I`m still a young girl with lots of enthusiasm, so sometimes I get a little jumpy or mouthy when I`m excited. I don`t mean any harm—I`m just having fun and haven`t quite learned all my manners yet. With some guidance, consistency, and patience, I`m sure I`ll blossom into an incredible companion. I already enjoy training and would love a family that can help me keep learning and growing. I find agility activities pretty fun too!I have made great progress here in dog playgroup; I started out pretty sassy (and I still am...) but I have learned more about how to talk to other dogs, how to not be the boss ALL the time...and I have made many friends here. I am not sure I want to live in a home with other dogs, but if the other dog had just the right kind of personality...who knows! When I start to feel big emotions in the play yard and the other dogs are testing my mama-dog patience, I go and lounge in the pool to cool off and mediate. Life in the shelter has been hard on me. The noise and stress are starting to wear me down, and lately I`ve been feeling pretty sad. I`m having trouble eating, and it`s becoming harder to keep my spirits up while I wait. More than anything, I just want a place where I can relax, feel safe, and know that I belong. A forever home would mean the world to me, but even a foster home could help me decompress and remind me what it feels like to be loved.If you`ve been looking for a sweet, affectionate best friend who will stick by your side through life`s adventures, I hope you`ll come meet me. I can`t wait to find the person who`s been waiting for me too.Love,JanieIf this dog has been successful in our play groups it is not a guarantee that a dog will be social with other dogs in their home or in public setti
