Story
Itsy is a sweet girl, she is eager to please and enjoys your company. She is still young, a little over a year old, and she was found by the animal shelter caring for newborn puppies.I'm not sure if she was abandoned while she was pregnant or always a stray, but I know she is a happy girl to whoever feeds her, she was very skinny at the animal shelter and probably while she was a stray.I am disabled and she is just a bit on the bigger side for me and makes it more difficult to handle her.

Story
Meet Zuma! Zuma is a 1 year 4 month old Shar Pei mix who is looking for a special person willing to help her learn that the world isn't such a scary place. Zuma is spayed, microchipped, and up to date on her vaccines. She needs to be the only animal in the home and would do best in a home without children. A quiet, calm household with low traffic would be ideal for this nervous girl. While new people and new situations can make Zuma nervous, once you are HER person, you'll see her affectionate side come shining through. She loves her people and wants to feel safe and secure with them. She would benefit tremendously from positive, patient training to help her navigate her feelings, build confidence, and learn that new experiences don't have to be scary. And there's plenty of fun underneath that nervous exterior! Zuma knows basic commands, walks well on leash, LOVES toys, enjoys riding in the car, and has a blast outside running around and getting her energy out. Zuma isn't looking for a busy household or a home that expects her to instantly love everyone. She's looking for someone patient who will give her the time, structure, and understanding she needs to blossom. If you think you could be Zuma's safe place and help her discover the world isn't so bad, come meet this sweet girl! Interested in adopting?

Story
Where do we start with Mr. Reset. He is a new arrival to the rescue, so we are learning his ways. He was found as a stray...and to be honest, he does not need to go back to wherever he came from. Reset has severe skin allergies that have lingered on for too long without intervention. Despite it all, he is a very sweet boy. He's quiet and reserved, but you can tell he wants to be around people. Sharpei's are sensitive dogs that require a special family. They are dedicated to protecting their family and they form strong bonds with their owners. This can make having new people around a little uneasy for them. Reset seems to do well with strangers which is promising! He was socialized well. He does fine with other dogs. He is very curious about them at first, but then he just hangs out. We have not tested him with cats. He seemed to have a high interest in chickens. He does not react, bark, or growl...he is just highly curious. We will closely observe any high prey drive behaviors in foster care. Rest is crate trained and seems to be housebroken. He is scheduled to be neutered after his skin infection/allergies are addressed. He will make a wonderful companion for a family that is educated on this breed. If you would like to foster Reset while he is being treated, please reach out to us by applying to adopt. Reset will be up for adoption after his neuter. https://adopt.animalsfirst.com/animal/66b189c45d6f9afa2c07afb8/6ab422b30a4737862307a553
