Story
Balto is a loyal, beautiful 8-year-old Akita, and we love him dearly. Our family is relocating to Asia long-term, and after exploring every option, bringing him with us isn't realistic for him or us. We're committed to taking the time to find him the right next home. About Balto Classic Akita temperament royal, watchful, and devoted to his people Good health, No medications, no chronic conditions. He does get some eye discharge He is Neutered, weighs about 90lbs and very well house trained The home that's right for him No other pets. We have another dog and they coexist, but we keep them managed separately. Balto will be happier and more relaxed as the only dog No young children. We have kids of our own and he's been gentle with them, but we genuinely believe he'll do best in a home where any children are older (12+).

Story
Zoomer is incredibly handsome and super smart. He's able to master new skills quickly and curious about the world around him. Zoomer LOVES car rides and walks. He lives life full speed ahead, so he would do best with an active adopter who is looking for an adventure buddy. He’s down for any adventure with you, from hiking and camping to road trips. He just wants to be included and feel like he belongs. Zoomer recently enjoyed a short 5-day break in a temporary foster home, and he aced it. While we would usually describe Zoomer as high-energy (hence his name), his foster described him as easygoing and settled in her home. Sometimes dogs who are amped up in the shelter become completely relaxed in a home, and this seems to be the case with Zoomer. He was the perfect guest! They described him as “absolutely delightful” and we have to agree. In the home, he was cuddly and affectionate, and transitioned quickly into his new routine. They described his energy as low-key and sweet. Once Zoomer gets to know you, he’s all about the snuggles. He loves back and chest scratches and will reward you with little happy grunts. Ultimately, Zoomer was excited to be the center of attention. Zoomer is fully housetrained and knows quite a few tricks. He sleeps well through the night in his bed and waits patiently to be let out in the morning. He’s perfectly happy with a quick jaunt around the backyard, a roll in the grass, and checking on the neighborhood through the fence. Zoomer isn’t high-maintenance, and, more than anything, wants to be your buddy. If you’re looking for a silly, happy, loving companion, Zoomer would love to meet you. He would do best in an adult home without other pets. Apply to meet him today!

I’m looking for a loving, responsible family to welcome my sweet dog, Sly, into their home. He’s a Boxer–Husky mix with a gentle heart and a playful spirit. Sly is great with kids, very affectionate, and has never bitten anyone. He’s crate-trained, gets along well with other dogs, and would fit perfectly in a home with or without other pets. Car rides are one of his favorite things!I want to find a home where Sly will be safe, happy, and truly loved. If you’re seriously interested, please reach out—I’m happy to answer any questions.Serious inquiries only. Sly is looking for his forever family.
