Story
Hi I'm Fenton! I am a young shepherd mix and I'm searching for my forever home. I absolutely love playing with toys and I have endless energy! I would love to have a person to take me hiking or train me in some kind of dog sport. I have been working with the trainer on basic obedience and doing very well! My caregivers think I would excel in a sport or by having a "job" as I am very driven, food motivated and eager to please. My brothers Fritz and Farley are also at the rescue and we are all very similar! I am neutered and up to date on vaccines and dewormings. I will be microchipped at adoption.

Story
Meet Willow! Willow is a 4-year-old shepherd mix who weighs about 70 lbs. She’s been with us since she was a puppy and is a loving, loyal girl. Willow is great with kids and has lived around other dogs and cats with no issues. She is naturally protective of her family and bonds closely with her people. She’s an energetic, intelligent dog who would benefit from continued leash training and regular exercise. Willow would do best in an active home or one with a yard where she has room to run and play. Due to an upcoming move, we are sadly looking for a new home where Willow can get the love, attention, and space she deserves.
