Story
Cookie is a 3.5 year old half Golden Retriever, half Pitt/Staffordshire terrier mix who has been with me since she was born! She is very well socialized as she began twice weekly daycare at 6 months and has always lived with other dogs. She is fairly high energy, loves attention and play time and does best with a fenced in back yard (preferably with a doggie door) so she can entertain herself when no one is home. She is fully trained and knows all basic commands plus a few, however, she can get very excited when you come home etc... and may jump so very young kids or elderly adopters may not be the best fit. Cookie has never been involved in a fight with any dog or human in all her years of daycare and is a super affectionate lovely girl! Ideally, the smoothest transition for her new home would be into a family or active household with a fenced yard or lots of walks and plenty of love and attention to give as she is very used to being spoiled :) Moving August 1st 2024.

Story
Hi there, I'm Daria - your golden-hued canine companion, and I'm on a mission to spread sweetness and a dash of spice wherever I go! Picture this: I'm an adult dog who's got the sweetness game down to an art. Lounging is my specialty, and I take great pride in lavishing belly rubs and kisses upon my favorite people. When it comes to lazing around, consider me the expert. My sunny disposition lights up any room, and I've got a soft spot for curling up beside you for some quality relaxation time. I'm the embodiment of sugar, and my love for people knows no bounds. Now, let's talk about the spice - I do have doggo friends and I love to play hard. Go hard or go home I think you two legged people say and that works when it comes to my romping time. Oh, did I mention I'm potty and crate trained? Yep, I've got those skills down too. Your home will be my haven, and I'll make sure to keep everything neat and tidy. So, if you're looking for a furry friend who brings a perfect blend of sweetness, lazy lounging, and a touch of spice to your life, look no further. I'm Daria, and I'm ready to add some flavor to our adventure together! *Additional feedback from a weekend host includes: "She rode great in the car. Didn't make a peep". "She is a very affectionate little girl". Recent host commented: "She sure is a couch potato, as soon as we got to the house she made herself @ home on the sofa & chilled." "Daria jumped up behind me and helped herself to a piece of cheese. LOL! She felt at ease to do that so I knew we hit it off right away." "She's a super sweet girl very well behaved and would be a wonderful addition to any home. "

Story
Looking for an older girl to join your family? Chestnut's looking for a chance to melt your heart. This lab mix's coat matches the rich brownish red of her namesake. At about 45 lbs full grown, she is an adult who knows how to act like one! She enjoys being around other dogs, but more on the sidelines watching the shenanigans versus being all in the middle of it. She is quiet in her crate and adores attention from all her two legged friends. Chestnut may need a few minutes to get to know new people, but she's super sweet and kind hearted soul. She would surely like to fill her days with a comfy bed and a family to love.
