Story
Toffee-tastic is a charming 49 lb. canine companion with a coat as warm as his personality. His red fur with white chest and toes adds to his adorable appeal. At 1.5 years old, he's still finding his footing in the world but has already shown a heart full of sweetness and potential. Toffee-tastic is a sensitive soul, prone to nervousness and preferring to avoid conflict whenever possible. Loud or sudden noises can startle him, so he feels most at ease in calm and quiet environments. Despite his timid nature, he enjoys the simple pleasures of life, particularly playing fetch, which brings out his playful side. He's incredibly sweet-natured, showing affection to those who earn his trust, though he lacks confidence and may need reassurance from his human companions. Toffee-tastic would thrive in a loving and patient home environment where he can feel safe and secure. A gentle and understanding owner who can provide him with the comfort and reassurance he needs will be essential to helping him overcome his fears. He may do best in a household without young children or other pets, as their energy levels might overwhelm him. A quiet and predictable routine, along with positive reinforcement training, will help Toffee-tastic build his confidence and blossom into the loving companion he's meant to be. If you're ready to open your heart and home to a sweet and sensitive soul, Toffee-tastic is waiting to find his forever family. Contact us to learn more about how you can make him a part of your home.The dog adoption fee is $90.

Story
Everybody give a warm shout out to our boy Buddy!!! Weighing in at a whopping 101 lbs Buddy is the ultimate cool dog with a heart of gold. With his laid-back demeanor and affectionate nature, Buddy is ready to become your loyal companion and best well.....buddy! Buddy's sweet demeanor and charming personality are sure to win you over. He certainly has become a quick favorite here at Joint Animal Services. He's a good communicator who knows how to express his needs and desires, whether it's through gentle nudges or hearty woof! Buddy enjoys the simple things in life. Playing with toys and indulging in tasty treats, yum! and he's always up for a game of tug of war with his favorite humans. When he's not playing, Buddy is a champion lounger who adores cozy spots surrounded by his beloved toys. He will happily zonk out in his kennel. Adorably snoring the hours away wrapped up in plushy blankets. This guy knows how to enjoy the best of life. He came from a household where he lived with fellow shelter pup Lily. He also has done well in our doggy play groups. So, he potentially would do well in a multi dog household. We do encourage any family dogs to come along for a meet and greet. This guy is versatile though and would be just as happy soaking up all the attention and being spoiled rotten. Overall, Buddy is looking for a loving and understanding home where he can spend his golden years surrounded by comfort and affection. Buddy's ideal family would be willing to indulge his love for toys and treats and provide him with plenty of cozy spots to relax and unwind. Sound like a good fit?? Well then come down and meet this well-rounded boyo and win the heart of a true champion. The dog adoption fee is $90.
