ESTIMATED WEIGHT FULL GROWN: 50 lbs KNOWN WITH DOGS: Ozzie does very well with other dogs KNOWN WITH CATS: Ozzie has not met a cat yet so we're not sure! KNOWN WITH KIDS: Ozzie has met and seems to enjoy humans of all ages. KNOWN COMMANDS: He knows "sit," and is eminently trainable, as you can see, he was even comfortable on a boat! KNOWN HOUSEBREAKING &/OR CRATING: Ozzie has been doing a wonderful job with house and crate training! KNOWN LIKES: Treats. Exercise. Mental and physical exercise. Dogs of all sizes. People of all ages. KNOWN DISLIKES: none known! From Ozzie's foster mom: "Ozzie is the most friendly dog ever! Still have not heard him bark yet. He eats all his food and loves treats and playing. He also loves cuddles! He is doing well in his crate, he will cry a couple minutes but that's it. Ozzie is learning his name and loves when you yell it multiple times and let him run into your arms! He also seems to be housetrained, does great with my dog and did very well at the groomer's getting his nails trimmed. :) Ozzie has been wonderful. Ozzie was cautious the first night, and then has settled in very well! I walk Ozzie together with my husky 3x daily except Wednesday night. I used a body harness on our walks. He pulls a bit but stops with slight tug on leash. He loves to sniff everything on our walks and sometimes lingers on interesting aromas. Ozzie has met deers, foxes, and geese. He was most curious about the geese, and barked at the deer and foxes. Ozzie likes to greet dogs and humans on our walks but does not pull or bark at them, ie, not reactive at all. Ozzie loves to do zoomies when he's in the backyard and wrestle with my husky. They play quite well together. Ozzie is quite capable of self entertaining with squeaky toys and tennis balls. He has not quite got the concept of bringing balls or toys back when we play fetch. :) My husky doesn't get it either. Ozzie would prefer pickup toy/ball and zoom around yard until my husky tackles him. Ozzie loves food and follows me whenever he sees me walking toward the kitchen. He does not counter surf. He is very polite when given treats. He has want to be petted and hugged. He sometimes would also try to sneak in between me and my husky whenever I kiss and hug my husky. He was excellent when he was crated while I was at work. I didn't crate Ozzie on Wednesday and he didn't soil in the house while I was away for 8 hours. He spent day playing with my husky, and nap when I checked my home camera. So far he's still afraid of the open staircase at my house. He has been sleeping on his bed and outside of the crate since Tuesday."

Sarah is a beautiful girl looking for love. She is great with other dogs including the small dogs in her foster home. She loves attention, pets and play time. She is housebroken, crate trained and even knows some basic commands. She rides well in the car. She can be timid when she meets new people but treats are the way to her heart and she warms up quickly. There are few things as exciting in life as dinner time for this girl. She wants nothing more then to be loved on and love someone back with her whole heart. She was born with a congenital heart defect (PDA) but thankfully following a successful lifesaving heart surgery she is expected to have a long and healthy life with no restrictions or medications. Sarah has had a long journey to where she is now from outdoor shelter life to surgery to thriving in her foster home and next stop is a forever home of her very own!

Vader will greet you with enthusiasm, puppy tail wags and kisses. This sleek, elegant black shepherd mix would be the perfect hiking or jogging buddy. He would do best with an active owner or in a large home or a home with a yard. He loves to gallop. His coat is soft and silky and perfect for cuddling. He is extremely intelligent, easily trainable and loves belly rubs. He does not want to be dominated so would do best in a home without another dominant dog. He has not shown any aggression at puppy adoption events and gets along well in a home with 3 children ages 12 through 15. He ignores the older dog in his foster home and is overly exuberant when trying to play with the younger pup. He does not chew on furniture, shoes or walls (only on hard plastic toys). He is housebroken and was originally trained to use a pee pee pad, but has not had one in his foster home. He came straight to us from a loving home of 21 year-old parents who split up and he has the personality of a well loved baby. Please give this sweetheart his forever home! Thank you for your interest in Vader!
