This gal has already graduated from a basic training course a couple of years ago (just needs a few refresher lessons), knows some commands, and is both crate and house trained. She LOVES doing the zoomies to burn off some energy, and once she gets over the excitement of heading out, she walks nicely on leash—ready to explore the world by your side. And that excitement gets her stubby tail going, making her whole body wiggle!! Chelsea is an active girl looking for an active family. Whether you’re running errands, playing fetch (or maybe make that... keep away!), hiking in the woods, camping under the stars, or just soaking up the sunshine in the backyard, she’ll be your loyal ride-or-die. Oh, and car rides? She’s obsessed—ears flapping in the wind, pure happiness on her face. 🚗💨 ✨ Why Chelsea might be your pawfect match: — Loves people, both tall and small (hasn't met a stranger yet...everyone is her friend, put in her path for one reason only, to just give her some lovins!!) — Gets along great with other pups, but would also happily soak up all the love as your one and only — Cat curious—she’s not trying to hurt them, just hoping those funny creatures will play — Young, active, and full of zest for life Chelsea is sooo ready to unleash all her awesomeness on her forever family. With her sparkling personality and zest for adventure, she’s sure to bring endless tail wags, puppy kisses, and unforgettable memories. 💖 Don’t wait another second—apply to adopt Chelsea today at haydudeequine.org and let your life be filled with her excitement and let your adventures begin...together!!

Story
Rip is an extremely energetic dog and loves to cuddle. He would climb in your body if you would let him. He’s very affectionate and loves attention. He used to get along with our Rottweiler, however he’s now competing to be alpha, which is why we are looking to rehome him. He’s a really good dog, but needs an alpha male present in the home to bond with. He is very treat driven and does all of your basic tricks sit down and Paw. It’s extremely bittersweet to have to let him go, but we know that he is not getting the attention that he needs and desires right now and feel that somebody else can provide that. We wish for no money for him. We only ask he goes to someone loving and will do right by him. Thank you.
