Story
It`s a-me, Mario! Mario is a quirky 9 year old goofball that is sure to steal your heart (instead of coins). This sweet boy sadly came to our shelter as a stray in March 2019. At his intake exam, we discovered that he was heartworm positive and would require treatment. Mario has been undergoing the `slow kill` method of treatment while learning a lot in our FIDO prison program. He hopes to be heartworm free very soon. Mario is a sweet boy who can be a little shy when meeting new people. He would prefer a calm, quiet home without small children. He gets along well with cats and can be picky about his canine friends (will require a meet and greet). Mario loves to run and play, so a fenced yard is required in order to adopt him.Mario is a member of our FIDO prison program. FIDO dogs are obedience trained and socialized by the prison inmates. The $250 adoption fee covers spay/neuter, vaccinations, de-worming, microchip, and heart worm test (and current with monthly preventative). They are house trained, crate trained, and know their 5 basic commands. If interested in meeting a FIDO dog, please fill out an application online at: inapl.org/adoption-application. Once it`s processed, a member of our team will be contact with you.MarioShepherd mixMaleDOB: 3/29/2014Weight: 45 lbs.Heartworm Positive

Story
Ares is 7yrs old. Loves attention 24/7 and is ball obsessed. As long as he has a ball and is with someone that shows him attention he is happy. He has never shown any aggression ever towards, kids, or people, or any animal. He has no health issues and loves to be outside all the time so he is dirty the majority of the time. It would be best for him to be in a home that has lots of people to give him love and attention. Unfortunately I work long hours and don’t have the time to give him that he really needs. He will get sad and anxious if he feels he is ignored. Just asking for a home to give him the love I can and the attention he deserves.
