This confident and outgoing girl is everything puppy: happy, affectionate, and full of enthusiasm for life. Victoria is looking for adopters who will help her learn the ropes of living in a home and being part of a family.Victoria is a social butterfly who loves to be around people and other dogs. She is excited to meet new friends and will approach with her tail wagging! Victoria has lived with children ages four and seven, and absolutely adores them! She is so affectionate and sweet with them. Though she has not met cats yet, she'd likely do fine in a home with or without a cat. Victoria is smart and eager to improve her puppy manners. She is working hard on her house training and crate training, and has made great progress! She is mostly house trained and does best when kept on a consistent schedule. Victoria sleeps soundly in her crate overnight, but may be vocal for a few minutes when crated during the day. With time, patience, and consistency, she will continue to make progress. Victoria is excited to learn and grow with her new family, whether it’s developing her leash skills, going on adventures, or finding the best spots around the house to take a nap.Victoria is a sweetheart who is sure to grow into an amazing companion. Could you be her new best friend?Please Note: All dogs are posted on our website until they are officially adopted. This dog may have other interested adopters in line.

Story
Affectionate, playful, and always up for a new adventure or challenge, Shiloh will bring lots of joy to his new home. I adopted him in April 2022, when he was 5 months old, as a little brother for my first pup, but have found the demands of raising 2 young working/sporting males in the city - and their behaviors together - to be more than I can manage as a single working mom. Shiloh is house trained, neutered, vaxed, and travels well in the car. Food motivated, he’s got great recall, responds to all the basic commands, learns quickly, luvs 2 please. He’s accustomed to a quiet home, may have been sensitized by young neighbors yelling at him across the fence, is nervous with new people but warms up quickly, can be reactive with frisky dogs and young males, has some separation anxiety. Seeking active, dog-savvy family who love shepherds and are available most days to walk/hike, cuddle, play. Big enclosed yard and older dog/s (especially female) a bonus. Could also do well in quiet home.

Story
Zoey is a one year old black lab/german shepherd mix. She is extremely loving to family and friends and relatives who visit her home. She loves our other dog and allows our kids all over her! She is very sweet around those she knows and anyone entering our home but can be territorial and protective around strangers (delivery drivers, etc). She has one bite incident. We are looking for a loving, affectionate home for Zoey that is not as busy as ours. We have 3 teenagers and our home is very hectic with people and cars in and out. Because of her protective nature, we feel like a quieter home with less bustle and chaos would be a better fit for her temperament. She has been through a 2 week out of home training and she takes commands very well. She has been crate trained and enjoys her crate very much. She is still young and benefits from a yard where she can run or taken on walks.
