Story
Hi there! I`m Sandy, and I recently went on an adventure with a very nice volunteer. We took a walk in the park, and let me tell you, I was excited! I always go outside to do my business, so I had no trouble finding a spot during our adventure. I met a few new people along the way, and I was definitely excited about it. I can get pretty exuberant when I meet new faces—I might pull on the leash, bark, whine, or jump around a bit. When I met some kids, though, I was much softer and wiggly. I loved getting attention from them and wagging my tail. I’m great with kids, and I really enjoy when they pet me.I also met some other dogs, but I’m not too interested in playing with them. I mostly ignored one of the dogs we encountered, and sometimes I do get a bit aroused and hyperactive when I see other dogs on a leash. If I’m close to another dog, I might growl a little, but it’s not always the case. I can be a bit unpredictable in that way, but I’m learning to be more calm around them.I`m a medium-energy guy, so I’d be happy with a nice walk or a run—anything to help burn off some of my energy! On our adventure, I didn`t go potty much, but I did stop a lot to pee. I did great when we visited a local outdoor patio, too! I was calm and relaxed, just laying on the ground, and I even got some attention from a family with little kids nearby. I love when people stop to talk to me!A little about me—you should know that I *love* car rides, especially with the windows down! I also really enjoy tug-of-war, although fetch is not my thing. I might be a little unpredictable when it comes to my back feet, though. The groomer tried to trim my nails, but I wasn`t having it and tried to lunge at her. So, yeah, we didn`t go back for the nails after that.But overall, I’m a sweet boy who loves attention and affection! I’m great with people, love my walks, and I’d be so happy to have a family who understands my quirky side. If you`re up for a snuggle or a tug-of-war session, I’m your guy!

Story
Hi! I`m Sol!I’m a super sweet, snuggly girl with a big heart and an even bigger love for belly rubs—I’ll roll right over to make it easy for you! I’m housebroken, great with kids, and happiest when I’m with my favorite people. Whether we’re playing in the yard or curled up on the couch, I’m all in.I recently got to go on a big adventure with a fun volunteer, and let me tell you—it was amazing! We hung out at home, went for a hike, played, and even took a car ride (I was a total pro). I met new people along the way and greeted them all with wiggly excitement and a happily wagging tail. I was especially gentle with the kiddos—soft snuggles and sweet tail wags are kind of my specialty.I do love attention, so I’d prefer to be your one and only pet—no other animals stealing my spotlight, please! I’ve got plenty of energy and would thrive with an active family who’s ready for walks, fetch sessions, and outdoor fun.If you’re looking for a playful, affectionate pup who’s always down for an adventure and a snuggle, I might be the perfect fit! I even qualify for Foster First, which means you can take me home for 14 days to make sure we’re meant to be. Let’s start our next adventure together!

Hey, meet Howie! This energetic dude is basically a big puppy in a dog suit. He`s super active and playful, so get ready for some fun! He knows `sit,` which is a good start, but he`s still working on his leash manners (he pulls a bit). Howie`s a talker, so expect some vocal expressions. He IS a big puppy, so he`d do best with someone who can teach him some manners. He`s made some dog friends at the shelter, so might like a pal (bring yours to meet him). He`s a good boy at heart, just needs a little guidance and lots of playtime!
