Story
Hello! My name is Taylor!I`m a loving girl who can be timid meeting new people but since being at GHS I`ve come out of my shell beautifully and seem to be less timid with strangers. I am a petite little thing, not even 60 pounds! My new family should know that I work as a part-time digger and will help with any gardening needs you have or even snow removal when the time comes. I like to dig holes for my toys and then cover them up by shoveling dirt over it with my nose. I may sometimes bark at dogs on leash if they are too close. But with a bit of space and some positive reinforcement with treats, I have made really nice progress so far! I am a snuggly and affectionate girl and at the end of the day I`m just looking for a loving home that will show me what a good girl I am.MY IDEAL HOME INVOLVES…CHILDREN: Teenagers may be ok but no young children given my timid nature.OTHER DOGS: Yes, with a friendly, playful dog who won`t be off-put by my initial barking.CATS: Potentially, with a cat experienced with and comfortable living with dogs. FIRST-TIME DOG OWNERS: I would do best with someone who has previous dog experience.FENCED-IN YARD: Recommended.HOUSING ENVIRONMENT: Any with yard preferred. Rural would also be great!SOMEONE HOME MOST OF THE DAY: Not necessarily.SOME OTHER THINGS TO KNOW ABOUT ME…ACTIVITY LEVEL: Medium. HOUSE-TRAINED: Yes.If you think I could be a good match for your home, click the “Adopt Me” button to apply!

Hello! My name is Essen!I`ve been waiting for my family to come along since February. My Christmas wish is that my new family will adopt me before the end of the year and I can ring in the new year in my new home.

I`ve also recently discovered that I am an excellent cottage buddy and love to swim!MY IDEAL HOME INVOLVES…CHILDREN: Yes, older and mature children!OTHER DOGS: Other dogs cause me stress, so I`m looking to be the only dog.CATS: Since I like to chase little critters, I shouldn`t live with kitties.FIRST-TIME DOG OWNERS: I would do best in a home that has dog experience.FENCED-IN YARD: Highly recommended.HOUSING ENVIRONMENT: Homes with yard preferred.SOMEONE HOME MOST OF THE DAY: I do well home alone!SOME OTHER THINGS TO KNOW ABOUT ME…ACTIVITY LEVEL: Medium.HOUSE-TRAINED: Yes!If you think I could be a good match for your home, click the “Adopt Me” button to apply!

Story
Hello! My name is Kelsey!I`m a kind girl who can be anxious in unfamiliar situations. I can be a bit timid of new people but warm up with time if they have some yummy treats and let me give them a few sniff-overs. Once I warm up, I am affectionate. I do also have a playful side and even though I`m not a young pup, I still like to romp around in the snow and tear up my stuffy toys! I do bark when I see unfamiliar dogs on leash. Gotta make sure you see them too, ya know? I am a smart girl, I respond well to positive training methods and I would love to join a home that will help me feel safe and secure.MY IDEAL HOME INVOLVES…CHILDREN: I would do best in an adult-only home given my sensitive nature.OTHER DOGS: I would be most comfy as the only dog in the home.CATS: Potentially, with a cat who has lived with and is confident around dogs.FIRST-TIME DOG OWNERS: I would do best with someone who has previous dog experience.FENCED-IN YARD: Recommended.HOUSING ENVIRONMENT: Any with yard preferred.

Story
Ellie / Female / 13 Weeks / Shepherd x Husky + / Dogs: Yes / Cats: Yes / Kids: Yes / Location: Cambridge Meet Ellie! Ellie is a sweet northern girl who was found wandering a dump with her brother before making the long journey south in search of a family to call her own — and she’s already proving to be such a gem. Ellie loves to supervise in the kitchen, follow her curiosity, and spend time outside chasing leaves. When she’s all tuckered out, she’s happiest cuddled up with you or snoozing in her crate. She enjoys meeting new people, playing with other dogs, and she’s very food motivated — kongs, bones, stuffed toys, liver treats… you name it, she’s in! Playful, affectionate, adventurous, and confident, Ellie is a smart cookie who makes training fun and easy. She’s still working on fully loving her crate, but she’s already making great progress. This sweet girl truly is something special. Apply to Adopt! https://forms.gle/pvdFxdvNQxuSnHkX9
