Story
Weight: 66 lbs(over 75lbs once fully grown)Meet Bingo!This silly boy is as happy as can be and loves meeting new people. Some of his favorite things are peanut butter, squeaky toys, and all of the tummy rubs! Since Bingo is still quite puppy, he has some manners to work on and will benefit from continued training! He knows sit and touch and is very treat motivated and ready to continue learning! Given that Bingo is a German Shepherd he comes with a lot of energy and will need frequent exercise! Bingo would also benefit from another dog friend in the home as he does great with other dogs and needs to burn that energy!Adopt Bingo today!

Story
Chief is a 4 year old pure bred German Shepherd who is protective of his loved ones and is full of personality. I rescued him from an abusive household at 6 months old. He loves the outdoors and loves to play with an old pair of pants as his toy. He knows his basic training and is kennel trained. It is best to leave him in a kennel while you’re not home. He has a funny personality and his real name is Chief but loves to be called Pig. He needs someone who loves to be outside playing with him and needs a strong leader. He is protective, very caring and comforting, and smart. He was raised with my other dog Chip (that is also for adoption) and loves him very dearly but if you can only take Chief that is fine. He will be an amazing addition in your life.

Story
Oh hey guys, Dasher here!Listen, I'm not trying to sound super high maintenance or whatever, but my accommodations aren't doing it for me. And I really want to be in my permanent home for Christmas. My foster family is great and all, I actually love them, but I need to bust out of here soon. I have no space for my ever-growing costumes, the house is crowded, and I can't even begin to tell you how bad these people snore!! Ha! Just kidding 😁..... or am I 😉. So anyway hmmm 🤔.... my ideal home would be Me... ONLY Muwah... I just can't handle the stress of sybs, always in my personal space.....blech! I don't mind walking on leash with them but that's it. I would love a big fenced in yard or at least a few strolls a day, gotta stretch them legs or they get stiff. I'm pretty good at sleeping in my crate when your gone, I'm a nice guy really, I just get bored and MAY get into trouble 😁. My foster momma taught me some good old fashion manners! Not to toot my own horn but I am pretty polite, can play a mean fetch and am the best darn couch buddy you'll ever meet!! And don't worry about me getting any of those yucky diseases because these ladies got me all fixed up with vaccines and hw prevention, of course I will need those regularly. Now if you're seriously looking for a roommate I would love to come over and check out your setup. I mean as long there's no yucky syblings.. blech. Just follow this link and fill out my application, because I gotta weed out the ""weirdos"" 🙊. https://www.pawsofadamscounty.com/adoption-foster-appwww.pawsofadamscounty.com
