Story
Window-down certified, calm and unbothered by the world around her... this is Sally. She has an easy presence, is happy to be included, never makes a big fuss about it, and somehow still ends up being everyone’s favorite part of the day. Go watch Sally on YouTube then come right back to read more about this sweet, steady girl. https://youtu.be/uh_GrKOtFTs Sally is estimated to be around 5 years old, weighs 75 lbs, and appears to possibly be an Anatolian Shepherd and Great Dane mix. As always with rescue, breed and age are our best guess. What we do know for sure is that she is calm, easygoing, and deeply committed to the simple things in life- a car ride with the windows down, a tasty treat, a little sweet talk, and a soft spot to relax. She is fostered with other dogs and does just fine around them, but Sally is not looking for a booked social calendar. She greets new dogs politely, keeps it short and sweet, and then goes right back to focusing on what really matters... namely peace, comfort, and perhaps a snack. She would be perfectly content as your one and only, but also enjoys the company of easy-going, relaxed dog friends. Inside the home, Sally settles in beautifully. She is quiet, easy company, and has a wonderful sense of her size, which is always appreciated with larger dogs. She feels like the kind of dog who understands how to live with people in a way that is gentle and natural. No chaos, no constant demands, just a lovely steady presence by your side. And if you needed even more proof that she is a gem, Sally recently spent time with a 5-year-old and was an absolute perfect lady. She was gentle taking treats, listened to commands, and calmly held a front row seat for an impromptu three-minute cartwheel routine. Honestly, it was giving proud Grandma vibes and we loved seeing it. Sally would be such a beautiful fit for a home where life moves at a softer pace. A home with kind people, regular visitors who know how to appreciate a good dog, and a rhythm that leans cozy instead of chaotic. She is not here to turn your world upside down. She is here to make it better, calmer, and a little more charming one slow afternoon together at a time. If you are looking for a dog with a gentle spirit, easy manners, and always ready to take shotgun, Sally is your girl.

Story
Looking for a companion who is equal parts adventurer and world class cuddler? Meet Nash, the sleek, 48lb bundle of joy who is ready to sprint or stroll straight into your heart! Nash is the ultimate best of both worlds kind of guy. He’s got that signature bouncy, fun loving play style that will keep you smiling, but he also calm for those quiet evenings at home. Whether he’s showing off his social butterfly skills with other pups or leaning in for some quality one on one time, Nash is a balanced, well socialized gentleman who just wants to be part of your world. Watch Nash’s zoomies in action! https://youtu.be/Vw27A32mFBE Nash is a hang out dog. While he loves a good trail walk or swim in the pool, he is happiest when he’s acting as your loyal shadow. He’s the kind of dog who will happily accompany you on a 3 mile trek and then immediately look for a soft spot to lounge by your side and give you “the look” as to watch movie are we watching. He isn’t just a pet; he’s a partner in crime who is always tuned in to his person's vibe. Now, he hasn’t exactly disclosed his family tree with us yet, but we think Nash is a Black Mouth Cur mix! As a rescue superstar, his true heritage remains a mystery, but his stunning 48 lb frame makes him the perfect medium sized companion. He’s big enough to keep up with any adventure, yet compact enough to not take up the entire sofa though he’ll definitely try to tuck those long legs in for a serious snuggle once you're home! Nash has been flourishing in a foster home! He is a crate trained rockstar who sleeps soundly through the night and stays calm while his humans are away. Even better? He is fully potty trained and has been a perfect houseguest. He’s lives with other dogs and handles the hustle and bustle of a multi dog household like a total pro, showing off his impeccable manners day in and day out. When it comes to other dogs, Nash is a balanced king. He has a playful, bouncy energy that makes him a hit at the park, but he’s also incredibly respectful. If another dog isn't in the mood to play, Nash simply says cool and walks away. He would thrive in a home with another dog to wrestle with, or he’d be perfectly content as your one and only spoiled prince! Nash is a dog who knows what he likes and he’s decided that feline friends aren't on his guest list! He seemed a little too interested when it comes to cats, so he’s looking for a strictly cat free sanctuary. Nash dreams of a home with a yard where he can stretch his legs and freely "sing his songs" to his heart's content; he is adaptable enough to thrive in an apartment setting. He’s a "people person" through and through, and his ideal day involves a walk followed by a long nap. Nash is a medium energy companion, and an ideal hiking buddy for an active individual or family. In short, Nash is a sophisticated, social, and sweet natured guy who is just waiting for the right person to lead the way. If you’re looking for a loyal companion who is as well behaved in the house as he is fun on the trails, Nash is your man! Ready to make Nash a permanent part of your pack? https://adopt.animalsfirst.com/animal/62cc8e128b02916730334440/69c2ed89ffb34db1950fccb8 Questions?

Story
Daisy is a tiny bundle of joy with a personality that’s as bright and cheerful as her name. She has this adorable way of prancing around like she’s the star of her own little show, and honestly… she kind of is. Everywhere Daisy goes, she brings smiles, laughter, and just a little bit of delightful chaos. This playful girl LOVES to stay busy. She’s always moving, exploring, and finding new things to get excited about. Toys? Yes. Siblings? Absolutely. Random leaf on the ground? Also yes. Daisy sees the world as one big playground, and she is here for it. Watch her YouTube video now https://youtu.be/-UxLJqDhPUI?si=D96TCBC-z4jMdQlt And when it comes to treats—Daisy is all in. She is completely obsessed and will do just about anything to earn one. Her enthusiasm is unmatched, and it makes every interaction with her so fun and entertaining. Training her will be a breeze because she’s so eager and motivated (especially if snacks are involved!). Even with all her playful energy, Daisy has a super sweet and loving side. She adores attention, loves being around people, and will happily soak up all the pets you’re willing to give. At around two months old, Daisy is at that perfect puppy stage where she’s learning, growing, and forming her little personality—and it is absolutely adorable. She’s looking for a family that will play with her, love her, and enjoy all the happiness she brings. Daisy isn’t just a puppy… she’s a little spark of joy waiting to light up someone’s life. https://adopt.animalsfirst.com/animal/62cc8e128b02916730334440/69bd8a7b31280dc0360202f3 Questions?

Story
Chloe is the kind of puppy that makes your heart melt the second you meet her. With her bright eyes, wiggly little body, and nonstop happy energy, she is pure sunshine wrapped up in fur. Chloe is always on the move, bouncing from one adventure to the next like she has a tiny motor of joy running inside her. Whether she’s chasing after a toy, following you around the house, or playfully tumbling with her siblings, she brings laughter everywhere she goes. This sweet girl is also highly motivated by treats—honestly, if there were a gold medal for “most determined for snacks,” Chloe would win every time. She will sit, wiggle, bounce, and give you her very best puppy eyes just for a tiny bite. It makes her not only hilarious, but also a dream to train as she grows. Watch her YouTube video now https://youtu.be/-UxLJqDhPUI?si=D96TCBC-z4jMdQlt At just around two months old, Chloe is still discovering the world, and everything is exciting to her. She’s curious, affectionate, and loves being near her people. After she’s done zooming around, she’s more than happy to curl up beside you and soak in all the love and attention. Chloe is looking for a home that will embrace her playful spirit, laugh at her silly moments, and spoil her (just a little!) with the treats she adores. She’s the perfect mix of fun, sweetness, and puppy charm—and she’s ready to fill your life with happiness. https://adopt.animalsfirst.com/animal/62cc8e128b02916730334440/69bd8a6e2ac6ebdb2e0a2b77 Questions?

Story
Rooster may be small, but his personality is huge. This little guy struts through life with confidence, charm, and just the right amount of sass to make him absolutely unforgettable. He’s playful, energetic, and always ready to jump into whatever fun is happening around him. Rooster loves to stay busy. He’s constantly moving, exploring, and engaging with everything and everyone around him. Whether he’s playing with his siblings, chasing after toys, or bouncing around the room, he brings a lively and joyful energy wherever he goes. Watch his YouTube video now https://youtu.be/-UxLJqDhPUI?si=D96TCBC-z4jMdQlt And just like the rest of his crew—Rooster is wildly obsessed with treats. He takes snack time very seriously and will do just about anything to earn one. His determination is both impressive and hilarious, and it makes him a great candidate for learning new tricks as he grows. Despite his playful and spunky nature, Rooster also has a sweet side. He enjoys attention, loves being around people, and will happily soak up affection once he’s gotten some of that puppy energy out. At around two months old, Rooster is still discovering the world, and he approaches everything with excitement and curiosity. He’s looking for a home that will appreciate his big personality, keep up with his playful spirit, and give him all the love he deserves. Rooster isn’t just a puppy—he’s a tiny entertainer, a loyal little companion, and a whole lot of fun wrapped into one adorable package. https://adopt.animalsfirst.com/animal/62cc8e128b02916730334440/69bd8a5a6bb3afb43b038786 Questions?
