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
*** CURRENTLY AVAILABLE ON-SITE *** Coach is one of the nine Hockey litter puppies. The litter is all good natured and easy going. They eat their food together without any drama which is unusual for puppies of their age - estimated at 3 months. They sleep quietly together at night in a puppy pile. The litter is made up of six males and three females. Five of them look like nearly identical yellow labs, and the other four have various colors. They are good eaters and are not picky but seem more interested in human interaction. As their foster, if I stand in the area where they are eating, they pay more attention to me than their food. They love human attention! Coach is the biggest, but also one of the calmest. When playing with the smaller members of his litter, he takes his turn on the bottom, letting them jump on him. All of them are very athletic and play rough with each other (but no damage). They wrestle, chase and growl at each other (the growling is puppy trash talk). They all have hockey names because they all were showcased at the Hurricanes hockey game on March 12th. They were the hit of the concourse with hundreds of people (adults and children) viewing, holding and petting them.

Story
Gus is a special lady. It truly breaks my heart to be rehoming her. However, I am recognizing that my skills as a pet parent do not encompass the support she required. PROS: Gus has lived with 2 cats in the 5 years I have owned her. They get along great! She recently has had 2 dog roommates added to the mix and gets along well with them too with a slow and intentional interdiction. She can be silly, LOVES to snuggle, has an avocado stuffy that is her best friend. She doesn’t like squeaker toys, so she is quiet! Definitely low/calm energy. CHALLENGEShe is anxious, and so can be reactive. Because of this, I have been giving her Fluoxentine in the mornings per the vet’s instruction to aid her with her anxiety. She can get a bit protective of resources, so feeding separately is wise. She can jump/bare teeth when you sneeze or cough and does not board well. Gus is best suited for an experience adopter who is kind, patient, and willing/able to support Gus with her eccentricities.
