Shadow es un amor disfrazado de perro, le encanta que le den atencion y amor, me la encontre en la calle y me la traje porque me dio miedo que la matara un carro pero no puedo tenerla, se gana el amor de cualquiera, por eso me gustaria que la tenga una persona con un gran corazon, es muy protectora y es obediente, aprende muy rapido, no es agresiva e ignora a los gatos, demuestra ternura en sus ojos, pienso que debe de tener como 17 meses de edad, realmente ella es muy dulce

Story
Allow me to introduce you to the charming little Miss Anna! At just 6-7 months old, she is blossoming into an absolutely delightful puppy. Weighing around 42lbs currently, we anticipate that she will grow to be a healthy 50-55lbs when she reaches her full size. One special feature that sets Anna apart is her bi-colored eyes; when you look closely, you can catch a glimpse of a beautiful blue at the very top of her brown irises—such a unique and captivating look! Anna is brimming with personality, and her outgoing nature will undoubtedly bring joy and laughter to any household. She's full of energy and has an infectious spirit that draws everyone in. Whether it's with family or new furry friends, she greets everyone with enthusiasm, often wiggling her entire body in sheer excitement. She especially adores her furry friends, usually opting to give them all kisses and submitting by laying at their feet to show her love. Anna also loves to "talk" and express herself, so be prepared for some delightful conversations filled with her playful chatter! In terms of playtime, Anna is a true enthusiast. She has a soft spot for toys, especially anything she can tug, chew, or toss around. She enjoys treats, too, and occasionally finds herself in the mood to shred her potty pads—it's all part of her playful puppy antics! Recently she's shown her love for the paddling pool! So, she's officially become a waterdog, splashing around and having a blast! As a young pup, she is still learning the ropes, so it’s important to keep in mind that she might engage in some chewing on household items as she explores her environment. Despite her young age though, Anna is incredibly smart. When we rescued her and her sister from life on the streets, she quickly adapted to her new surroundings. If you’re searching for a loving, intelligent, and vibrant companion who brings a delightful mix of sass and charm, Anna might just be the perfect fit for your home. She is ready to fill your life with joy and is looking forward to finding her forever family! Anna is currently available and completely up to date, so if you're ready to add this beautiful girl into your family please feel free to reach out by filling out the form below. Thank you! https://form.jotform.com/241765023842152 If she doesn't seem like the right fit for you, please consider sharing this sweet baby to help us find her an amazing home! Donations help us continue to help dogs in need, so if you're able, please also consider donating to our cause. Anything is welcome and appreciated to help with vetting, food, and other supplies! Thank-woo in advance! ❤ Venmo - @OMGShutTheFrontDoor Cashapp - $DontBeAnotherKaren Amazon wishlist; https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/3K9JZPY8QM90W?ref_=wl_share

Story
Moose is a fun loving family dog. He loves to fetch and take walks. He also loves the beach. He may stray a bit but always comes back when he is called. Loves car rides. He loves to play with other dogs as well. He has also been fixed. He is a bit of a chewer when he gets bored. Mostly kids shoes and toys they leave in the yard. But he will chew on anything if he is bored long enough. Also an escape artist. Loves to find his way through or under fences. Unfortunatey due to some life changes we arent able to play with him as much as he needs. He needs a family.with plenty of time to play with him and a big yard for him to run around in.

Story
The Gallivanting Gem, Nami: Not Your Average Couch Potato Say hello to our gorgeous tricolored mixed breed, who tips the scales at an athletic 56 lbs and sports a lively spirit beneath her sleek coat. At 4 years young, Nami is a bundle of joy and energy, ready to race into her forever home. But don't let her active demeanor fool you; she's as brainy as she is bouncy, knowing a plethora of commands from 'sit' to 'stay', and even 'into your house' for kennel time. Nami's foster dad reports she's like a shadow, loyally following her humans wherever they go, whether it's a thrilling hike or just a trip to the fridge. Nami is a pro at making human friends (seriously, she's never met a two-legged friend she didn't like). She lives harmoniously with her current canine roommates yet prefers dogs that match her size and spunk. As for the felines and the furballs smaller than her? Let's just say she's better suited to a cat-free, small dog-free zone. This girl's got an explorer's heart with a prey drive to boot, meaning she's more suited for adventures in a securely fenced yard rather than a leisurely off-leash park. While independent and sometimes a tad sassy, Nami is very trainable, responding best to a confident handler who knows how to channel her intelligence and energy positively. Her ideal home? One with a yard where she can sunbathe after a good run, and a family that enjoys active living as much as she does. Although she's not yet tested with tiny humans, she's shown she's good with teenagers who can respect her space and pace. Nami is a treasure to behold, ready to sprinkle a little magic in every corner of her forever home. With a personality as big as her heart, she promises to be not just a pet, but a full-fledged family member brimming with love and excitement. Ready to open your home to this beautiful spirit? Nami is waiting to start her best life with you! If you're interested in learning more about this wonderful girl or are thinking about adopting her into your family, we invite you to reach out! We’re eager to answer any questions you might have. To take the next step toward adopting Nami, simply fill out the form below, and we’ll connect with you shortly. Thank you for considering giving this amazing dog the loving home she so richly deserves! https://form.jotform.com/241765023842152

Story
Kiba is a 4.5 year old, newly fixed, high energetic dude. He is looking for someone or a family who can give him constant walks, attention, training and love. He is super sweet and overly friendly. He believes anyone who is within a 10ft radius of him is his bestie. He’s great with kids but can be a bit much for the smaller sized children. He loves cats, other dogs and just overall a big lover boy. He needs you to be understanding, and extremely patient. Kiba is still trying to figure out personal space but if he could be glued to you 24/7… he would! Please help us by helping him find the perfect home that can give him everything we are not able to.
