Story
Meet Bean! Bean is a 3-year-old, 47-lb English Pointer who recently tested heartworm negative. This sweet boy is gentle, social, and easy to have around. Bean spent a long weekend in a foster home, and he impressed everyone. He never barked, walked beautifully on a leash, and adapted quickly to crate training—by the third night he was sleeping quietly in his crate with no fuss. He also met the foster’s cats and showed zero reaction, and the cats remained completely relaxed around him. He’s friendly with other dogs and enjoys their company. Bean is a very affectionate boy who loves being near his people. He has a calm, loving presence and is ready to fit right into a home that will give him attention, structure, and lots of love.

**Meet Birdie — Our Very Own Superman!** This handsome gentleman has it all — charm, sweetness, and a heart of gold. He’s great with other dogs and cats (especially the playful ones!) and loves to give kisses to everyone he meets. Birdie’s superpower? He can *literally* leap tall fences in a single bound — so he’ll need a tall, secure privacy fence to keep his heroic adventures safe. ‍He’s working on his recall and leash skills, but with some love and training, this Superdog will soar even higher.Everyone needs a hero in their life — maybe Birdie’s meant to be yours!

Story
I am a cuddle bug of a dog but needs the ability to get my zoomies out before settling in for the night. I would love to have a fenced in yard where I could run around without dealing with a leash. If you are a runner, I'm your running partner for sure. I'm not a fan of being crated and will try to break out.
