Story
New friends! I'm so excited! Hiii! I'm Zoey! I'd like to take a quick second to brag about my house manners and polite behavior...I am perfect in my crate! I do wonderful at being house-trained. I know how to sit, come, stay and lay down. I'll do anything for a treat and, let me tell you, I sure am dialed in when I sniff something tasty! Car rides are awesome. Hanging with other friendly dog friends is a whole heap of fun, too! I am thrilled every time you ask me if I want to go for a walk. Chewing on bones and hard toys is also a favorite past-time of mine. Let's go back to chatting about walkies...daily walkies and healthy diet will be very important for whoever adopts me to ensure. I weigh 106 pounds and am probably around 25-30 pounds overweight. It would be so much better for me to be at a proper weight while still receiving all the nutrients I need. Can you help me get there? I like when people around me are calm. I'd prefer any kiddos in the home to be about 10ish and up. I haven't seen kitty friends but I will soon and I can let you know. Being around people makes me so happy. I am not a huge cuddler but I do like to have company. My personality is happy and joyful. Can we become a family? I am about six years old and I'm spayed. Love, Zoey.

Story
Meet Bo Peep! This 1.5-year-old Shepherd mix is on the lookout for her forever family. She’s a young, energetic girl who would thrive with an active household or a fenced-in yard where she can burn off her playful energy. Bo Peep lived with children in her previous home and did well overall. Because she’s still working on her manners and can get a little bouncy during playtime, we recommend a home with sturdy kiddos who won’t mind her enthusiastic personality. She absolutely loves her toys—especially anything she can fetch! Bo Peep has done well with other dogs and could potentially love to share a home with a fursibling as long as it`s a good match! If you’re looking for a fun, loving companion with plenty of spirit, Bo Peep might be your perfect match.
