Story
I am looking for a foster or forever family! Please CLICK HERE to sign up to foster! Select the "Apply for Adoption" if you would like to adopt I am Nara. I am from Arkansas. I'm a super sweet and outgoing gril. My foster parents tell me I'm a super goofy girl, I like to hop and spin around like a bunny. I loveeeeee all the people in the entire world. I want to jump up and give you hugs and get all the pets! I am a sweet girl who wants to bounce around and play all the time. I love other dogs and just want to play! My foster parents say I can be a bit extra for some dogs who want a little more space, but I just want to play! For the benefit of all, slow intros will serve my dog friends best! I love all people and mean well but my excitment may get the best of me and I could knock down small childern! So a little older childern would be best! I am house trained and crate trained (need a little encouragement to go in). My foster parents fenced back yard is the best and I could stay out and play all day long. Kongs and toys are the best thing invented sense sliced bread. Do I sound like the perfect dog for you ?

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Hey there, I'm Wonky Woofer! I'm a super sweet dog who craves love and attention. I love to play and frolick outside; while fetch can be entertaining, I'm truly in my element when I get the zoomies from the excitement of your company. Other dogs? They're like instant playmates, turning every encounter into a fun game. I will admit, it took me a little time to settle into my new home and space, but once I did, it became clear that companionship was all that was missing from my life. Whether it's snuggling up on the couch or sprawling out on the floor, I'm always eager to be by your side, following your every move. I am 90% housetrained having an accident once and a while.  I've mastered the art of sitting patiently, waiting for mealtime until you grant the go-ahead, though a gentle reminder to sit never hurts. And let me tell you, when it comes to food or treats, I'm positively ecstatic—I just can't contain my excitement! Truly, I'm the epitome of a loyal companion, a true man's best friend. Wonky Woofer is from local impound. If you are interested in getting to know this animal better, please fill out an adoption application. An adoption application is the best way to show your interest in an animal and is not a binding contract.

With one blue eye and one brown, Simba’s unique look matches his unique personality.Simba loves nothing more than playing fetch and leaning against his favorite people for some love and attention. Despite his size, he’s good about not jumping up on you, though he’s always eager to learn new skills and tricks.One of Simba’s favorite pastimes is interacting with other dogs, from the tiniest to the largest. He’s fantastic with them all, making him a great companion for any furry friend.If you’re looking for a playful, loving, and incredibly unique dog, Simba might just be the one for you.

Husky Pit Bull Terrier

Female, Young
Minneapolis, MN
Size
(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)
Details
House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Name: Fendi Breeds: Pit Bull/ Husky Mix Age: Young Adult Sex: Female Size: Large Fendi is a uniquely colored bi colored eye girl who isn't just a pretty face. Nope, this sweetheart also has a great personality and some training under her belt! She is housetrained (though with any dog expect accidents as she transitions), crates well, and minds her manners in the house. She adores people of all ages though the little ones might get bumped over from her playful nature. She has the energy you would expect from a husky and a pittie so needs daily outlets for her energy—walks/runs, playtime, training, etc. Fendi was well known in a local impound for her frequent visits. We aren't sure if she is an escape artist or if her frequent trips out of her house were due to no fault of her own but just in case she will need a securely fenced yard or an owner committed to leashing her (not tie-out) when outside in an unfenced area. She is good with other large breed playful dogs but is a bit too pushy in play and too much for bossy dogs or for smaller dogs. She cannot go to a home with cats or small animals. Fendi is super smart and loves to learn things. She knows how to sit, shake, and lay down. Her leash manners could use a bit of work but even with just a few training sessions she is picking up loose leash walking like an absolute champ. If you are looking for a smart, active, social dog who is ready to go on any adventure with you, Fendi wants to be your pooch! Requirements: No cats Adoption Fee: $500 + tax. This includes neuter/spay, current vaccinations as age appropriate, heartworm/tick testing in dogs over 8 months of age, deworming, microchip and current Heartgard and Nexgard preventatives.
