Story
Blaze is easy going and loves to be around people and other dogs. I am caring for Blaze because his owner moved to California and has decided it is time to find him a family with a fenced in yard and preferably kids. The owner has given him to me and I wish I could keep him but I am a full time student and I already have a dog that takes up a lot of my time and money so I realize it would be selfish and unfair of me to keep this sweet boy. He is ready for a loving home that has time for him

Needs experienced adopter, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Daisy is a 2.5 year old shepherd mix. Daisy has been with us for over one year. In that time, she has been spayed, house trained and learned to walk on a leash with a Gentle Leader. Daisy is also very food motivated, so she has learned the following commands: sit, stay, shake, heel, down, place. She also loves belly rubs and will lay down on her back to when we say, "belly rub." Daisy does well with women and takes time to warm up to men. We have an older child who Daisy is very attached to, however, she does not do well with the energy level and antics of our 5 year old. She has learned that her crate is a safe place. She can spend time there during the day and sleeps in her crate at night. She has made a few dog friends, usually alphas. Introductions need to be done carefully. Daisy is fence reactive. She needs daily exercise and loves her toys- especially playing tug. Daisy needs someone who is experienced with intelligent, strong-willed dogs and will continue her training.

Story
We adopted Dandy when he was 1 from a friend and he is now 11. Dandy is extremely sweet and loyal - he's very relaxed when at home. He loves to lounge around the house and cuddle and is amazing with the kids! Dandy's best trait is his sweetness and the love he will have for you. He will make you feel loved every day with his eagerness to greet you when you get home and the snuggles he'll give you. He is excited to meet new people! He is a very sweet, loving dog and has given us so many amazing memories. With two kids we leave the house a lot but Dandy gets nervous when you leave him alone. He doesn't eat furniture but he has scratched our front door and whines when we leave. Our guess is he doesn't do this for long because when we return he's calm/laying down. We would love to see Dandy with someone who can be with Dandy during the day, take him on walks and has a yard for him. He is the sweetest dog and needs a home where someone is patient and loving!

Story
Proz was purchased from a breeder that owned a farm past Olympia, WA. We have had him since he was 9 weeks old. He is caring, loving and kind. He loves to exercise. He is kennel trained and does well with other dogs. He loves to play with little dogs but sometimes does not recognize his own strength. He is wonderful with children and helped us raise kids. He eats Victor dog food and is has been well taken care of. He sleeps inside, so he is not an outside only dog. Looking for a loving home for him.

Story
Hi, my name is Cedric and I would love to meet you. I have been at the shelter since May 09, 2022. Thanks to some of my friends here at the shelter, I have started to build confidence. I love seeing how happy they are when I successfully perform a trick we`ve been working on! If I could have the perfect day, it would include being with my people and doing a lot of playing, learning tricks, and cuddling. Does that sound like your perfect day too? If you are intrested in Cedric, please email: adoptions@thehumanesociety.org!
