Story
Rolo is 38 lbs and has been our family pet for 7 years. We adopted her when she was two. She is 9 now. Her personality is calm and youthful. She is happy lounging but she’s energetic for walks and outdoors. She doesn’t bark much and has no bad habits. She’s as loving and easy going as it gets. This is a great dog who deserves a great family. She loves walks and the dog park. She’s loving toward people but not needy. She gets along with other dogs. No meds or medical conditions. She’s great with babies and kids. Very gentle nature and submissive. Smart and works hard to please people. Rehoming her due to a move/remarriage as my youngest son leaves for college. We have time to be selective and really want her to have a spectacular second family.

Story
Meet Callie, a young JRT (Jack Russell Terrier) who is looking for her forever home! Callie is a beautiful brown and white female with a great size of just seventeen pounds, making her the perfect lap dog size. While Callie can be nervous around new faces and situations, she has a heart of gold and is always eager to make new friends. She just needs a little time to warm up and feel comfortable in her surroundings. With patience and understanding, she will come out of her shell and show her true personality. If you are looking for a loyal and loving companion who will always be by your side, Callie is the dog for you. While in a foster home, and with the proper slow introductions, Callie did well with young children and other dogs! She is waiting to meet her new family, and we know that whoever adopts her will be very lucky indeed! Callie is the current Underdog, sponsored by Brilliance Subaru! Callie is an All-Star dog! Her adoption appointment includes a discussion with our Training Team, and she will go home with her very own no-pull-harness and a few enrichment goodies to help get her off to a good start! To schedule an appointment to meet Callie, email info@ahconnects.org (please include your name and phone number), and the staff will be happy to help you! Our dogs and puppies go home spayed/neutered, microchipped, heartworm tested (6 months and over), and up to date on core vaccines, heartworm, flea, and tick preventatives. Their adoption also includes a free vet exam at one of our participating veterinarians.

Story
Hello there, I'm Bentley, a charming 1-year-and-10-month-old hound/Chinese Shar-Pei mix. I'm on the lookout for a new forever home, as my previous family had to move, and I'm hoping to find a place where I can share my love and playfulness with a caring family. At 30 lbs, I'm the perfect size for snuggling and playtime adventures. I'm a playful boy who absolutely adores giving kisses and playing fetch - it's one of my favorite pastimes! I sometimes get the zoomies, and I hope you'll join me in my bursts of excitement and joy! Playing and having fun are some of my specialties, and I can't wait to bring laughter and happiness into your home. You can count on me for endless games of fetch in the backyard and plenty of cuddle sessions on the couch. I used to live with other dogs and children, so I'm well-versed in the art of companionship. While I may be a bit nervous around new people, especially men, with a little time and patience, I warm up and show my sweet and loving nature. I might need a bit of time to adjust, but once I trust you, I promise to be your most loyal friend. I should mention that I can be a bit uncomfortable with medical handling, but with gentle guidance and positive reinforcement, I believe I can learn to feel more at ease. I just need a kind and understanding family who will help me build my confidence in these situations. If you're looking for a furry friend who will fill your days with love, playfulness, and the occasional case of the zoomies, then I'm your guy! I'm ready to bring joy and excitement into your life. Come meet me, and let's embark on this wonderful journey together. I can't wait to be a part of your family and shower you with kisses and affection. Bentley is an All-Star dog! His adoption appointment includes a discussion with our Training Team, and she will go home with his very own no-pull-harness and a few enrichment goodies to help get her off to a good start! To schedule an appointment to meet Bentley, email info@ahconnects.org (please include your name and phone number), and the staff will be happy to help you! I hope to meet you soon! Our dogs and puppies go home spayed/neutered, microchipped, heartworm tested (7 months and over), and up to date on core vaccines, heartworm, flea, and tick preventatives.
