Story
FOSTER OR FOREVER HOME NEEDED Meet Watson! Watson is a 2.5-year-old, 35 lb Wheaten Terrier mix who is ready to find his people. He is a sweet, fun, outgoing guy who loves being around others and is always up for some playtime! Watson is very social and loves playing with other dogs. He’s an active guy who would make a great best friend, partner in crime, and adventure buddy for someone who wants to keep their dog involved in their daily life. Watson is smart, treat motivated, and eager to please his handler, making him a fun dog to train. He is still working on his manners, particularly when he gets excited. He can be mouthy during play and likes to use his mouth, so we’re looking for a dog-savvy home that can continue working with him and help him learn appropriate boundaries. We recommend an adult-only home or children 12 and older. With continued training, structure, and plenty of outlets for his energy, Watson has all the makings of a wonderful companion. He’s a goofy, affectionate, social guy who would love nothing more than to have a family to call his own! Watson is UTD on vaccinations, microchipped, and neutered. His adoption fee is $500.

Snow thrives in a quiet home with plenty of predictability, where she can feel secure and settle into a comfortable routine. She enjoys leisurely time with her people, whether that means playing, going for calm neighborhood walks, snoozing in a cozy spot, or snuggling close.

Story
Benji is a sweet boy who will surely charm you quickly. He came to PAWS as a stray, so much of his history is a mystery. During his time at PAWS, we have learned that he is fairly easy-going, walks nicely on leash (for a dog of about 80lbs), and already knows a couple tricks. Although awkward in his meets with other dogs, it seems that he is interested in engaging as long as the other dog is respectful. If you`ve been looking for a handsome adult dog to bring into your home, consider Benji!Benji`s adoption fee has been waived!
