Don't let the name fool you—while he’s always up for an adventure, Sporty is a mid-energy boy who’s just as happy to kick back and enjoy a quiet evening at your side. This handsome pup is looking for a loving home where he can come out of his shell and be the most loyal companion you could ever dream of.Sporty had a tough start to life and can be a little shy when meeting new people as a result. He may hang back at first and observe, but give him a few minutes to warm up and his sweet, affectionate personality will shine through. Sporty has been a rockstar with the kids he’s met, patiently welcoming their hugs and kisses! This gentle giant is even great with cats—he completely ignores them. Sporty LOVES other dogs, reading their cues well and taking comfort from their company. He would be thrilled to have a canine sibling in his new home to look up to as he gains confidence.Sporty is a smart boy and a quick learner. He is house trained (though like any dog he may need patience as he adapts to new routines). Sporty has been working hard on his crate training and is making great progress. He may whine for a few minutes after the door closes, but he sleeps in his crate overnight and will even choose to go in and hang out by himself sometimes. While Sporty doesn’t demand a ton of exercise, his favorite thing is going on long walks or runs with his trusted people. He would make an amazing walking or hiking buddy, with his quiet endurance and calm presence.If you're looking for a big, loyal, low-drama companion who will grow more devoted with every passing day, Sporty just might be your guy. What are you waiting for? Apply to meet him today!Please Note: All dogs are posted on our website until they are officially adopted. This dog may have other interested adopters in line.

Story
Meet Sherman! 🐾❤️ Sherman has been loving life in foster, and the more time he has to settle in, the more his sweet personality shines! Once he settles in, he’s an affectionate cuddle bug who loves belly rubs, scratches, and sleeping in bed with his people. Sherman can be a lazy boy at times, and is often found lounging on the bed, but don’t let that fool you, he also loves to play, and occasionally gets the zoomies! He’s smart and food motivated — he quickly figured out a food puzzles and loves lick mats. We think he’d have a blast learning tricks with his forever family. Bonus, he is fully house trained, and lets you know when he needs to go out by heading toward the door. Like many young dogs, Sherman has some puppy behaviors, like trying to play with items that are not toys. Fortunately, he responds well to redirection with toys, and yummy treats! A fenced yard would be ideal for Sherman so he can safely run and explore. He would do best with a family willing to be patient as he continues coming out of his shell, and ideally one that is home more often to give him the love, attention, enrichment, and guidance he deserves. Give this sweet boy a little time, and you’ll discover just how special he is! ❤️🐶 🌟 Sherman has an old knee injury, likely from a previous CCL tear. At this time, we are managing his condition medically, and he is doing well in his foster home! He receives daily Carprofen and joint supplements and is not currently showing any signs of limping. His future family can choose to continue medical management or explore surgical options with their own veterinarian. Sherman is doing well, and while surgery is not something we can pursue as a shelter, it remains an option for his future family to consider.

Story
Looking for a gorgeous brindle best friend to share your adventures? Meet Destiny! 💜 This sweet, playful girl loves spending time with people and lights up when it’s time to learn something new. She already knows “sit” and is doing a fantastic job practicing “place” and “touch.” She’s eager to work for treats and loves digging into a food puzzle or playing with her toys. Destiny is also the perfect passenger princess! On a recent field trip, she calmly explored Weston Nurseries, sniffed her way through the state park, and snoozed on the ride back to Baypath. She loves hitting the trails with her favorite people and has enjoyed walking with another dog once she’s had a little time to settle in. Destiny arrived underweight and is working on gaining weight. If your idea of a good day includes a trail walk, a few tricks for treats, and a nap on the way home, come meet this sweet girl!
