Story
ADOPTION FEE GENEROUSLY PAID FOR BY ANONYMOUS DONOR.Jojo is the sweetest potato you will ever meet. She loves her toys but loves cuddling more. She will crawl right into your arms if you let her. Jojo rides amazing in the car and would be the perfect companion for someone who goes on small adventures or just wants a gigantic lap dog to keep them company at home. She prefers to be the queen of the castle with no other dogs or cats in the home. She has had multiple successful play sessions other dogs on site and does great but please keep in mind that she would still need guidance if she were to live in a home with another dog. She is VERY selective and might not make friends with any other dog. Although she is six years old, she is a young pup at heart. Her ideal castle would consist of endless toys and belly rubs! In JoJo's words ..."Helloooooo nice person! I'm Jojo; who are you? You say you're looking for a dog??? That's amazing! Because I am a dog! You say you knew that? That you came here looking for ME? Truly? Who needs someone JUST LIKE YOU to be totally happy for the rest of their life? Well, isn't that amazing! I guess that means we're going to be best friends FOREVER! Just you and me. Forever and ever and ever and ever. No one else. Just us. No, I will not share. Look into my eyes. You don’t need anyone else. Another dog? No thank you. A Cat? Absolutely not. Human friends? …..FINE as long as they have treats, don’t wear uniforms or ride things with wheels. I don’t trust those kinds. Obsessed?? Me? No way! I call it commitment, *passion*, undying love, life debt! You get it. I’ve got it all, and you and me will go on adventures together, have all the couch cuddles (YES, I’m a lap dog. They don’t call me a potato for nothing!), share snacks, and live happily ever after."Please apply to adopt at: http://www.pawsgh.org

Story
I'm entering the Freedom Tails program and plan to graduate on July 3, 2024! pawsgh.org/freedomtailsBigboi Beef Stew is a great young man who would make a great addition to most homes. He doesn't know his own strengths and can get a bit too rowdy if he gets overstimulated, but calms down with a hug, some chest rubs, and a booty scratch. He adores attention but has never learned the proper way to ask. His go-to right now is to aim for a piece of clothing to try and pull you in and if he goes misunderstood then it turns into a game of tug. There is a certain look that he will give when he needs some extra love and he does great with a hug and a little bit of redirection to a toy. He made his way to us from Hoquiam Animal control where he spent 5-6 months waiting for room with us here at PAWS GH. He has been a joy to get to know while in our care. He is nothing but happy all the time and enjoys the company of anyone willing to say hello. He has made so many new human friends and dog friends here at PAWS and is willing to make many more! He is now one of our long term stays and has been living the shelter life for about 9 months total. He has been patiently waiting for the right family to come along but he is starting to get antsy. He is a very cuddly, loving, smart, playful pup looking for that special home willing to give him a chance to show what a great dog he truly is. Bonus: He has made friends with our most selective dog and longest term resident Jojo! Adopt him with Jojo as part of a AOGO promotion! (Adopt one, get one with no adoption fee)Freedom Tails Update: 4/4/2024Hello, my name is Stewie( for short), and yes I am short too: about 21 inches at the withers–that is the area between my back and my nose in case you were wondering. Today, I weighed in at 80lbs. I am built like a horse, and people say I sound like a horse too. Presumably, they are talking about my heavy footsteps because I am not the whinnying type; I am in fact very quiet most of the time. I will pick-up light barks and whines when other dogs are complaining, but when I am by myself, I am usually very quiet–like I said. Petting me is like petting a horse. All this talk about horses..I suppose I should clarify that I am indeed a bulldog. I imagine you could see that from my stupendous picture. Get it “Stu” pendous-haha.I would really like a new home. I promise I will be good. People say I am super-duper well tempered. I will make an all-around great family dog, Someday…Please apply to adopt at: http://www.pawsgh.org

I'm entering the Freedom Tails program and plan to graduate on July 3, 2024! pawsgh.org/freedomtailsThis handsome young man is looking to hire a 24/7 belly scratcher! Dakota has the sweetest heart and the kindest eyes to match. He is still learning some basic manners, but overall, he is such a great companion already. He is a bit shy at times so new experiences take some patience but he is gaining confidence day by day. He has loved everyone that he has met thus far and enjoys going on walks. He CANNOT live in a home with kittens/cats but he loves to make new friends and play with other dogs in our play yard. Have you ever wanted to be able to talk to your dog? And have your dog answer you back?? Dakota loves to express his feelings and tell you what he's thinking! He is a very talkative dog at times so his future family would have to be okay with the occasional husky howl. Huskies are known for their talkative nature and using vocalizations to communicate and his husky side is not afraid to make an appearance when needed. But don't let that scare you away! He also loves to play with squeaky toys, play tug, or even just run around like a goof to get some puppy energy out. As long as he is getting some love and belly rubs he is happy, quiet, and quite content. Dakota is our youngest pup with so much joy and so much love to offer to anyone willing to be on the receiving end.

Story
Helena is currently at a foster home, so a completed and approved application is required to meet. We don't know about Helena's past, but we don't think her past few years were very kind to her. However that hasn't affected her view of life in the slightest. Helena is the nicest gal you'll meet, going up to everyone for pets, wiggling her little bitty nub of a tail. She has been in a foster home for the past few weeks working on gaining weight and getting healthy, and is ready to find her forever home to spend the rest of her golden years with. Her foster has nothing but good things to say about her: she's potty trained, has great house manners, and gets along great with the other dog in the home. Are you ready to give this girl a cozy couch to snuggle on? Fill out an application to meet her today!Please apply to adopt at: http://www.pawsgh.org

Buddha loves to be talked to and told he's the goodest boy, the bestest boy, a cutie patootie if you will.
