Story
Jack is a 5-month-old mixed-breed pup weighing around 40 lbs, and he’s ready to find the people he’ll grow up loving. 🏡❤️ ✨ A little about Jack: 🐶 Great with dogs of all sizes 🏡 Doing very well with house training 🛏️ Sleeps like a champ in his crate at night 🚗 Loves going for car rides 🦮 Working on his leash manners 💕 Happy, sweet & ready to learn! Jack is at such a fun age—old enough to start showing his personality but still just a puppy with so much growing, learning, and loving ahead of him. He’d love a family to take him on adventures, continue his training, and give him all the love he deserves. 🥰 Jack is still too young to be neutered, but that will be part of his journey as he gets older. Could Jack be the missing piece in your family? 💙🐾 🏡 Interested in adopting Jack? Fill out an adoption application at TheHopeHighway.org

Story
Meet Huck! 🐾 One-year-old German Shepherd mix | Professional goofball | Ball enthusiast Huck is a big presence with an even bigger personality! This lovable, goofy doofus wants nothing more than to be wherever his people are. He’s a world-class leaner, an enthusiastic lap-sitter (yes, even though he’s not exactly lap-sized), and has a serious case of FOMO. Closed doors? Not a problem. He’ll happily push them open to make sure he isn’t missing out on anything! Huck LOVES his ball. Seriously, LOVE is an understatement. Getting him to give it up can be quite the challenge! He’s also a big fan of destroying stuffed toys, so durable toys are probably a good investment. He's quite the character and isn't shy about sharing his opinions. His deep, booming bark will let you know when someone is at the door—or when you've wandered a little too far away. He also has a softer side, using little barks and whines to communicate with his humans. Huck has had appropriate interactions with both dogs and people. He's been especially good with the younger humans in his foster home, but he can get a little mouthy when he's excited and trying to convince them it's PLAYTIME! And in Huck's world, it's pretty much always playtime. He's a smart boy, too! He knows sit, and the kiddos have even taught him to shake. He loves his food and does great eating in his kennel. While he isn't a fan of going into his kennel initially, he settles down eventually once he's in. Which is where he spends his time when the humans are gone, and bedtime. Huck is a goofy, affectionate, vocal, playful boy who wants to be part of everything. He's got a big personality, a whole lot of love to give, and absolutely no interest in being left out of the fun!
