Story
OTHER PETS: Balto enjoys other dogs and engages well with them even if there is a size difference (he loves the little ones!) Balto also stays relaxed and does not engage when other dogs are too pushy. He would likely do well with another dog of a similarly relaxed yet playful attitude. [Likely (Must Meet First)] OWNER EXPERIENCE: Balto is a friendly and outgoing dog who presents as having experience with some skills (knows sit & paw, walks well on leash, takes treats gently.) He is also a big dog whose ideal person is experienced with positive reinforcement or willingness to learn, (and currently capable of) handling physically strong dogs. [Very Experienced]KIDS: Balto enjoys being outside and is playful with a variety of toys, he solicits attention from humans and dogs and shows his excitement with bounces. He would likely get along with most humans, but because he is uncomfortable with being touched around his back legs and he is a bouncy large dog his best fit would be with humans who were able to play with him and respect his boundaries. [10+ (Must Meet First)]ACTIVITY LEVEL: Balto enjoys spending a lot of time outside (his double coat keeps him comfortable in the snow) his ideal home would have a safe space for him to spend lots of time outside. While at TJO Balto has always been ready for a walk or to spend time in an outdoor run playing with toys & enjoying the snow. He would do well with a combination of regular exercise & mental stimulation such as playtime, tricks, and food puzzles, and time to enjoy the outdoors. [Good Walking Buddy]VETERINARY CARE: [Routine] LEVEL OF TRAINING NEEDED: Positive reinforcement training will help Balto bond with his new owner as well as learn new skills and fun tricks while building confidence. [Moderate]GROOMING: Routine brushing will keep Balto's coat clean and matt-free; when double coated dogs blow their coats sometimes their owners choose to have a professional groomer assist.

Story
Dakota is a handsome name, kind of a "rugged" kind of name, right?? I am kind of a REFINED RUGGED kind of boy! NOT!! I am a snuggle bug looking for tummy scratches....I willl MELT for one!! Here is what one of our amazing fosters have to say about Dakota...."Super freaking sweet, loves loves belly rubs, is very strong when you walk him but listens well. VERY treat motivated and knows sit down paw and i just taught him roll over yesterday but its a work in progress 😝. Super playful, he will pounce around you and then roll over for belly rubs and absolutely melts for the belly rubs and kisses" I love playing and running with my doggy friends, however, I can lay at your feet very sweetly to beg for your attention. I am kind of like a "reverse" planter as well. I mean, you plant it and i will un-plant it for you :D I won't do it often, just when I want your attention and I am outside alone. So see?? you have great control over that urge! So I am a food and toy lover too, I eat out of a slow feeder bowl because wolfing down my food is not an option! I am learning all things toys and am actually learning how to bring the ball BACK after you throw it. I am a smart and very sweet boy. I do absolutely have a prey drive so no kitties for small furry mammals around me please. I am fully potty trained and great in a crate. Now i just need you to adopt me to complete my circle of life. Now, before you go all "Lion King" on me, just know that I will be your bestest buddy forever!! I am two VERY loyal breeds and once I know you are my family, you will have my unending love :) Local adoption fee is $200 (in TX) Out of state adoption fee is $450 (includes transport to your area)

Story
Wolfie is a sociable, energetic boy who loves people and enjoys meeting other dogs, though he can be intimidating at first and may need a confident introduction before he settles in. He’s eager to play and he has a playful streak with water hoses that never fails to bring a smile. He weighs 89 pounds and is approximately 3-4 years old.??Wolfie is still learning the leash. He is learning to come when called and sits nicely when prompted. He is a homebody at heart, but he still needs plenty of exercise to burn off his occasional bursts of energy. He also enjoys walks with his humans.??Located in Houston, Texas. Transport to most states available for an additional fee of $300.
