Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Sasha is a german shepherd, husky mix. If you know these breeds, you know she is full of energy, so she would need daily exercise. She does great on a leash whether it is for a walk, hike, or a long distance run and travels in a car very well. She would absolutely need a fenced in yard that is no less than 6 feet as she easily clears four feet.  Sasha is very affectionate and just wants to be loved. She easily bonded with the adults in the house. She has bonded with our children, as well but it took her some time. She would do best with children who understand how to read the cues of a dog asking for space, so probably eight or older. She has become very protective of our family but still responds well to visitors in and out of our home. She does fantastic with our senior dog but should not be in a home with any smaller animals. Sasha is very responsive to correction and is eager to please. She learns quickly but still needs some training. She does best with a routine where she knows what to expect. She gets severe anxiety in her kennel, but if she's left out she will counter surf and get into things. It would be best for Sasha to be with someone who is home more than they are gone.  She will take some work and patience but she will be so worth your time!  Happy Days Dog and Cat Rescue microchips all dogs and cats before adoption. Microchips are implanted between the shoulder blades and are another form of identification should the animal get lost. The microchips are registered to    Happy Days Dog and Cat Rescue. The adopter's information is added once the adoption is complete. The adopter is responsible for a $19.99/Year registration fee or a $45.00/Lifetime registration fee to change information.    Dogs and Cats still need to have collar with tags should they get lost.

Story
Say hello to Nuna! This girl is as sweet as she is beautiful, and she is so excited to meet you. Nuna is looking for a family that loves to run and play as much as she does. She likes playing with all types of toys, especially ones that make noise. Nuna is a very food-motivated girl who loves to learn new things, she already knows "sit" and she can't wait to learn more with you. Nuna would also enjoy fun, mentally enriching games such as puzzle feeders, find-it toys, and snuffle mats to help keep her mind as active as her body. When she's not learning something new or going for a walk in the park, Nuna loves to snuggle up on the couch next to her family and catch some much-needed zzzz's. When meeting dogs here at the shelter Nuna was excited to make doggie friends but tended to be a little nervous. We recommend she meet dogs in the home before adoption to make sure they are the right match for one another. She would do best with a playful and polite dog who can show her the ropes and respect her boundaries. Does Nuna sound like the girl for you? Come in and meet her today!Nuna's ideal home:- recommend meeting dogs

Story
Meet Shiloh! She is a sweet girl who is patiently waiting for her forever family. She can be a bit fearful of quick movements and loud noises but some yummy treats and soft words of encouragement help her warm up more quickly. Due to her shy nature, she must meet any children in the home before adoption and will do best in a home with older children. She hopes her new family will help advocate for her in new situations and help her build confidence as she settles in. She is very food-motivated and would love to earn some treats as she strengthens those skills and maybe even learns a trick or two along the way. Once settled in, she really enjoys being close to her favorite people and would love to indulge in plenty of cuddles with you. Here at the shelter, Shiloh was very excited to meet other dogs but appears inexperienced and can be overbearing when introducing herself. She should meet any dogs in the home before adoption. She would likely do well with a polite, social dog who will be patient with her as she hones her doggy social skills. Shiloh's Ideal Home:-Not recommended for first-time dog owners due to reactivity and inexperience with dogs - Children 10 years and older, children must meet, she can be fearful of quick movements and loud noises- Must meet dogs
