Story
Meet Oso! Oso is a 1.5-year-old Akita/Shepherd mix with a gentle heart and beautiful manners. About 70 lbs, tall and fluffy, he’s a sweet, well-mannered “teen” who can be a little shy at first but quickly blossoms into an affectionate, loyal companion once he feels safe. He enjoys outdoor play and zoomies, then happily settles into a calm, cuddly house dog. Oso does great with other dogs, is house and crate trained, walks nicely on leash, and would thrive in a home with a yard and a confident canine buddy. If you’re looking for a soft, loving soul who rewards patience with deep devotion, Oso could be your perfect match Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.January 1, 2026, 5:12 pm

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Are you looking for a mature, distinguished gentleman?  If so then I’m your guy.  Hi there, my name is Crossbone but my friends call me Bones! Have you ever seen such a handsome face?  I'm a 10 year old Husky and I am everything you’d expect of a  lovable mature companion.  Can you tell that snow is my happy place?  I absolutely love people and my favorite thing in the world is my run and walk time.    Being a Husky I’d really do best in a home that can provide me the exercise and stimulation my breed requires.  Don’t let my age fool you, I can run with the best of them.  Afterwards I’d love some snuggle time, and don’t be surprised when I vocalize all my likes and dislikes in true Husky fashion!  I’m potty trained, and while the crate isn’t my favorite place I will do OK in one.  I’ve lived a long life successfully with many dogs but I do have a tendency to be protective of my food or treats so I’d prefer to live with either larger dogs who respect boundaries or no dogs.  My foster mom can fill you in on the details.  She also thinks that no other small animals (to include small dogs and cats) or small kids would be best.  If a handsome man like me is a good fit for your home, head on over to https://bit.ly/RRAdoptionApplication and ask for Crossbone!Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.April 2, 2025, 4:23 pm
