Story
Costco is a very snuggly boy who loves playing with other dogs, does well at doggy daycare, and loves cats. Unfortunately we don't have a yard at our new place and with a new baby we don't have time to bring him places to get his wiggles out. This boy needs a place where he can run around and burn off energy instead of being cooped up all day. He is reactive on leash - he REALLY wants to play with other dogs and can't pass by a ball being thrown without wanting to get it! - so he'd need a little training, but he's very smart and treat motivated. This boy loves to curl up on the couch with you or lie on top of you while you're in bed. He's always down for scratches and can hop like four feet straight up in the air. It's the cutest thing ever. He's a very good boy who is going to make some family very happy!

Story
Meet Henry; a cheerful, loveable, playful, intelligent puppy!  He loves to watch hocky, basketball, and adventure shows while snuggling on the couch.   Henry loves to play in the snow, creating tunnels with his nose and bouncing through the snowbanks!  The baby pool is also a great place to play - trying to dive for tennis balls and other toys is grat fun!  Born around Christmas 2023, Henry possesses a special charm that aligns with the festive season in which he was born. He lives with three other adult dogs so Henry has already started learning some social etiquiette and how to read other dog's social signals. But of course it will be important for his new family to continue socializing this friendly pup! Rescued alongside his mother and siblings, Henry has been nurtured with love and care by a compassionate couple who opened their home to him and his family. His happy and well-adjusted demeanor is a testament to the positive environment he has thrived in. While we can't be certain of his exact breed, he resembles a Sheperd Mix. There are certainly many other breeds mixed in his lineage. Henry inherited his mother's amiable temperament and he will be a wonderful companion for some lucky family. Impressively, Henry is already adapting to using the dog door and making strides in potty training, showcasing his quick-learning abilities. As an all-around delightful pup, Henry is ready to bring joy and companionship to a loving forever home. Henry is approximatley 4 months old and weighs around 30 lbs.  When he's all grown up, he should be a larger dog (~60 lbs).  Please remember, training a puppy is an essential and rewarding process that helps foster a strong bond between you and your furry friend while establishing good behavior and habits. Consider enrolling you and your new puppy in training classes. These can provide structured guidance and socialization opportunities. Remember that each puppy is unique, and training methods may need to be adjusted based on their personality, breed, and individual needs. Building a positive and loving relationship with your puppy through training will lead to a happy and well-behaved adult dog. If you're ready to open your heart and home to a new family member, please complete an application at https://www.circle2rescue.com/dog-adoption-application/ The adoption fee of $300 includes the spay/neuter, vaccinations and microchip!

Meet Appa, a 5-year-old German Shepherd with a heart as big as his energy! He is a bundle of joy who is always eager for attention and playtime. Appa gets along famously with other dogs, making him the perfect companion for playdates at the park. However, he is not a fan of cats and prefers to steer clear of them. Despite his lively nature, Appa is incredibly sweet-natured and has never shown any signs of aggression. He is a loving and loyal friend who would make a wonderful addition to any family that can match his zest for life and give him the love and attention he deserves.
