Story
Note from foster mom: We cannot figure out why he and his siblings have not been adopted. They are the sweetest family dogs that you will ever meet. They love to play with my kids and the other dogs. They have not grown for awhile now, so we believe they are going to stay medium dogs. They would truly make a great family dog. Hey there! I’m Landon, and I come from a very busy household—3 mama dogs, 24 puppies, and enough energy to power a small city! I’ve spent my days rolling around with my siblings, learning the ropes of being an adorable, mischievous little pup. Our parents are super sweet (they must be, to handle all of us!), so don’t judge us by our "mutt" status—we’re probably more mixed than anyone realizes, but that just means we come with a little extra spice! I’m on the lookout for my forever home, where I can take naps on the couch, chase after toys (or your socks, I’m not picky), and be the hilarious, loveable sidekick you never knew you needed. So, forget the breed labels—just think of me as your future best friend with a ton of personality and a lot of tail wags! Ready for a bundle of joy (and chaos)? Let’s do this!

Story
I am a really good boy who needs a loving home and someplace/someone to play with. I love to play with other dogs and am very fast. I am good in homes with kids of all ages, and will follow my owner around anywhere they go. I can also be a really big couch potato once I get tired out, and love to cuddle up close. I have been house-trained, and I will go to the front door to be let outside. I am also very quick to pick up commands. Everyone tells me that I am a good pup, but I need a home where I can get a ton of attention/be spoiled, and my current owners have a young toddler, which makes that difficult at times. Please consider adopting me today, and be my forever home.

Story
Kaipo obviously had puppy training classes as he knows his basics He LOVES to play Ball ⚽️ Fetch and he’s very good at it. Brings back the ball well. Drops it and can go for quite away. Walks well on a lead. Listens very well. pleasant dog. He is slowly accepting more and more love. And offering up his tummy for tummy rubs. He has shown some resource guarding, which we are working on with him. He would do best as an only dog, as he is very insecure with other dogs, and gets grumpy around some of them. He would do great with someone who lives an active lifestyle, and then wants a T.V watching buddy. He is neutered, vaccinated, wormed and microchipped.

Story
Hello, my name is RAH RAH and I am a young 9 month old girl with a curious and playful spirit! I came from someone who had too many dogs and ended up with the nice people at Downtown Dog Rescue. I think I look like a whippet/pit mix and will weigh about 40 lbs when i'm full grown. I am still just a youngster and would love to be in a home with a family who can provide me with the patience, love, and care that I need as I grow and learn. Here's a video of me with a trainer on my first visit to the local park getting to explore the world around me. I was a little scared at first but quickly came out of my puppy shell https://www.instagram.com/p/DCHZZIUv5Am/ I am spayed, microchipped, and current on my shots. If you are looking to add a new member to your family, I would love to meet you! Please fill out out our brief application at https://downtowndogrescue.org/adoption-questionnaire and we will get back to you!

Sweet, playful Angel is a very special baby! She is not the brightest puppy but her personality shines! She had a traumatic pre-natal brain injury, which causes her to be a little slow and fearful of stranger, but she just wants to be loved and pampered once she knows you. She is looking for an adopter OR local foster. Find her on Instagram @angel_needs_an_angel See her in action: https://youtu.be/pzkg5YSiTaQ

Story
Meet Leo!! He is a 2-year-old Basenji mix with so much love and energy to give. I met his previous owners, who were no longer in a position to own a dog, and I've been fostering him ever since. Leo is affectionate, intelligent, and full of personality. He loves to run, play fetch, and explore, but he's just as happy curling up for cuddles after a good day of activity. He is fully potty trained, crate trained, and walks well on leash. He gets along wonderfully with other dogs and does well with cats who are familiar with dogs. Leo absolutely loves children, but needs to learn how to play with them(he gets really excited). Leo would thrive in an active home, someone who enjoys outdoor adventures, has a yard to play in, or can give him plenty of daily exercise and attention. Living with another dog would be a bonus for him! If you're looking for a goofy and loving companion, Leo is your guy!
