Story
Everest is a giant baby who loves cuddles, sleeping on a queen size bed and more cuddles. She is nervous around slick floors, but treats get her pretty much anywhere. She is protective around the house, yet very friendly with strangers. Loves kids and playing with her sister Dandy. She has learned a lot of commands, including sit, stay, come, crate, comida, down. She gets anxious when seeing other dogs around the house and is vocal though usually just wants to play.

Story
Kawhi is very loyal to his owner and very loving once he knows someone. He does well at daycare with other dogs and people. However, he can be aggressive with people and dogs around his space. Kawhi has been a great companion but he is just not the best pet to have around a young child. We are looking for an experienced owner who will take Kawhi in and give him the love and training he requires.

Story
Meet Blue! Age: 2 Weight: 78lbs This pretty girl knows sit and shake and walks beautifully on leash. She is a super affectionate gal that loves to cuddle on the couch and go for long walks. In her foster home she has been well behaved, and doesn't chew or try to get into anything around the house. She is housetrained and sleeps comfortably through the night in her crate. She loves being close to people (seriously she will follow you everywhere if you let her). She gets along good with other dogs but she can be a bit picky so a meet and greet would be required if you have other doggos living in your home. She loves a good game of tug of war and loves to play with tennis balls. If this sounds like the dog of your dreams please fill out an online application and we will have her foster family get in touch with you!

Story
Meet Mama Bella! Age: 4 Weight: 58lbs This gorgeous little lady has mastered her sit and is working hard to learn more new tricks. She is so affectionate and friendly to every person she meets. She can be a little picky with her doggo playmates so a meet and greet would be required if you have other doggos in your home. Mama Bella came to us heart worm positive, this is not contagious to other dogs or people and is completely treatable. Mama Bella has completed her treatment, but it will be important to keep up with her heartworm preventative, please feel free to call us if you have further questions. *Mama Bella is currently in foster care but available for meet and greet with appointment*
