Story
Ginsburg may have been an adventurer in his youth, exploring the city in search of excitement and street snacks, but now he's ready for the comforts of a warm, loving home. Having seriously neglected his beauty routines during his wild phase, Ginsburg is now being pampered with soapy baths, a stylish buzz cut, skin-soothing meds, and soul-soothing cuddles. He's just the sweetest, friendliest guy around, and is clearly so happy to finally be cared for and comfortable. Ginsberg gets along great with other dogs! He has a decent amount of energy for a senior and would love regular adventures and walkies. He is very sweet and adorable! Here's some notes from his foster: Ginsburg is gregarious and cuddly! He is great with people and other dogs he meets on walks. Because he practically always runs and never walks, he could potentially overwhelm a dog sibling who goes at a slower pace than him. Aside from marking his territory on Day 1, he has had zero accidents indoors. He also knows "sit" and "stay," so I think he has had some basic training in a past life. He loves walking around in the neighborhood and in parks. Commercial areas might be over-stimulating; he likes to try and enter almost every store, and he gets a bit restless when he's inside a store. He does talk quite a bit; when he's excited, when he senses strangers near the house, when he's left alone. (But he is treat-motivated.) I have not yet left him alone for a long period of time. He would be a great addition to any home!

Story
Harold has what cuteness scientists define as Category 9 Adorability, an off-the-charts ranking based on little round eyes peeking through delicate floof, a minuscule mustache, wild eyebrows and extravagant ears. We think it's because he's a super-nice darling good boy who looks like he smokes cigars when no one is looking. You be the judge. Either way, he's an irresistible pup ready to cuddle his way into your life with record-breaking sweetness.

Story
Ace is 16 months and a great loving dog. He needs another loving home with parents who have the time he needs to love on him. He is great with other dogs, kids and people. Unfortunately with work and school we don’t have the time he needs. He will be a great addition to any family especially those with young kids.
