Story
I am an active young adult. I weigh approximately 40 lbs. and am house-trained. I love people, toys and wrestling with other dogs. I may be a bit overwhelming for cats, though. Picked up as a stray, I spent some time at the city shelter before I got a ticket out. My foster mom says I am very smart and learn things easily. I just love to get new toys and play tug with my doggie house mates.

Story
My story sounds like a country western song. I was shot, hit by a car, dumped, unwanted and unloved. I was found and taken to a country animal control shelter. Animal Control asked for someone to help me and Loving Arms said YES and then took me in. I was skinny, had worms, my leg was infected where I had been shot, the back of my neck had a wound also (possibly from another bullet), part of my tail was missing and I’m blind in my right eye. But other than that, I was just fine. Oh, and did I tell you, they gave me a toy, and OMG was that fun! I held it in my mouth and just shook it and shook it. I’ve never had so much fun!!! I have a couple of issues that only a patient foster or adopter will understand.

Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Lucky was lucky when she was adopted a few years ago but now they cannot afford to care for her. She is a quiet lady who is protective of her family. She is well behaved and never got into trouble. She is easygoing, friendly, playful, and jumpy with children of all ages. She is easygoing, friendly, and playful with dogs she meets during walks but has never lived with one. She's a bit of a couch potato but still enjoys car rides, running, toys, walks, and water (except baths). She weighs 70 pounds and likes to lead while on a leash. If she runs away while off leash, she'll come back if you call her. She knows the sit and no commands. She is house trained and sits by the door when she needs to go out. She has always had free roam of the house. She is independent and undemanding. Please offer Lucky the home and family she needs. (tw 4/13/2024)

Story
I am one tall glass of water – handsome and with a great smile. I have lots of energy, so I’d be a great walking partner or jogging buddy. I am friendly but not sure about those fuzzy bundles called cats. If you have a dog, let’s organize a meeting. I can be particular about my roomies. Mostly, I will be a loyal companion and by your side as much as possible.
