Story
Meet the energetic Rocket III. Heâ&#194&#128&#194&#153s a soon-to-be 2-year-old, 45-pound Akita Shepherd mix, with soft, chocolate-and-white fur and a heart-melting demeanor. Rocket was adopted from a local shelter when he was just 3 months old, and he's been living his best life ever since! Rocket is a playful, very high-energy pup who loves to zoom around the yard or an open area. He also loves to chase after squirrels which he feels is a challenge since they are faster than him. He gets along wonderfully with other dogs. Rocket loves playtime and is always ready for a good walk or run, but he also knows how to relax. When heâ&#194&#128&#194&#153s not playing, Rocket likes to stretch out on the floor or curl up on the sofa. An ideal home for Rocket would be one with a big yard to run around in, or an active family who enjoys outdoor adventures. Rocket is crate and leash trained, and heâ&#194&#128&#194&#153s currently working on learning â&#194&#128&#194&#156stayâ&#194&#128&#194&#157. Heâ&#194&#128&#194&#153s a quick learner, especially when there are treats involved! Rocket absolutely loves car rides, and a trip to the dog park is his idea of the perfect day. This lovable pup is deserving of the perfect furever home.

Story
Meet Beetle, a charming 4-year-old gentleman who`s sure to win your heart! This pup has a laid-back personality that makes him a joy to be around. From our volunteer observations, Beetle seems to enjoy socializing with both humans and other dogs, often approaching to give friendly greetings. He appears to prefer a calmer environment and tends to do better with lower energy dogs, finding more playful pups a bit overwhelming at times. Beetle`s dainty and gentle nature, combined with his social skills, could make him a wonderful companion for someone looking for a relaxed and affectionate furry friend.

Story
Ben was born in a high kill shelter on 2/3/2021. He was a day old when we brought him home along with his 10 siblings and his mother. All that remains is Ben and his mom Lily. They have been waiting patiently. But now it is thThis is Ben and he has been with Chloe’s Pet Rescue since he was a newborn. He is now going on three years old. We aren’t sure why he hasn’t found his “furever” home. He’s such a handsome guy. We believe he is an Akita/American Pit Bull mix. Ben is very friendly when meeting new people (after a few sniffs and he’s good to go) and is good with other dogs. In fact, if it looks like another dog wants to get into a tiff, he walks away. Ben is energetic and loves to go outdoors. He’s great walking on a leash, knows come here, stop, breakfast and dinner and is crate and house trained. One of his favorite things to play with is a ball. Something he does not like is rain and thunder. Don’t go out and buy a new bed for this guy because he will chew it up, just throw a blanket down and he is very content. Ben’s adoption fee is $25, which includes his full vetting.

Story
Meet Cleo!! First, and not most importantly, this girl's fur is the *softest*. She is quite affectionate, and with fur this soft, pettings are decadent :) You won't even mind all the husky 'snow'. More importantly, Cleo is fairly chill. She enjoys play with people (even kids) and dogs, with her play style described as 'gentle and dainty. She has not been introduced to cats. She enjoys her crate and really enjoys food. All food. She does not judge. Subsequently exercise is pretty important and she really enjoys a walk, so maintaining a healthy weight should be pretty enjoyable. All around Cleo is an excellent companion! Cleo has visited our Adoption Container located at Community Beer Co. and she does great! She loves everyone she meets and all the dogs. Her foster mom even uses her as a 'helper dog' with new foster dogs in the home. Don't miss out on this unicorn husky!

Story
Meet the fun-loving Kai. He is a 3-year-old, 65 lb. Husky with the cutest freckles on his face & front legs & the most stunning blue eyes! He is a friendly guy who loves to greet new friends & patrol the neighborhood for squirrels. He is up to date on all vaccinations, neutered, microchipped & house trained. He has also recently learned how to use a doggie door! We adopted Kai from the shelter in Dec 2022. He had originally been a stray & adopted but was returned 4 months later. His previous owner reported he was stressed by children in the home. We have cats & his experience with them was unknown but his personality won us over & we decided to give him a chance. Unfortunately, after a year of trying to get them comfortable together he still gets too excited by our cats & we are concerned for their safety. Kai is a high energy pup who loves to play tug, chase frisbees & balls, go on long walks & run! He gets a little anxious when left alone & is very vocal about his emotions. He does resource guard food, toys and valued items so would likely do best as an only pet. An ideal home for Kai would be one with an experienced dog owner, secure fenced backyard (at least 6ft tall), no small children or cats & a parent that is home part or most of the day. Kai knows how to â&#194&#128&#194&#156sitâ&#194&#128&#194&#157, â&#194&#128&#194&#156layâ&#194&#128&#194&#157, & takes treats gently. He has made a lot of progress on leash walking & does best with a long line for more exploring opportunities! He is a very smart boy & like most huskies requires a bit more patience with training but if you have cheese, he is very eager to learn. He is working with a trainer & weâ&#194&#128&#194&#153re excited to talk to you about tools for success. We can even recommend a trainer to help with any further goals you may have for him. This goofy pup is deserving of the perfect furever home. Could it be with you?
