Story
I got my dog from my dad as a teen in high school when I had more freedom I now that I am in college and working I can’t find the time at home for his care and nobody around me to do so either. Sanrio is 2 years old and was born around may/june 2023 from what I was told his dad was a XL bully and his mom is a pit brought from New York. He has always been a chill dog not really much of the playing type but loves affection and attention he likes going on walks and running in dog parks. He does not like cats whatsoever and LOVES children. He is not an aggressive dog at all and has never bitten anyone he also loves to eat 😂, Many people are threatened because of his size but he is just a big teddy bear. In a new home for Rio I just ask for a family willing to give him love and affection

6YO male beagle / bulldog mix. Sweet dog who would never harm a fly - he simply does not align with our family’s current situation and needs. Completely updated on his shots and just had a full vet visit and work up done a few months ago. Buster enjoys snuggling humans and loves nothing more than a soft, squishy bed to rest his head. Minimal barking except when someone is at the door. Potty trained and knows general commands.

Story
Zion is a bouncy and playful pup who loves playing fetch and exploring. He enjoys walks with his human and also thrives when he has room to romp and play in a fenced-in yard. With his ADORABLE underbite and a talent for making the funniest faces, Zion will keep you smiling with his charm. Zion is very affectionate and loves belly rubs, head massages and cuddle sessions. Zion is treat-motivated and has already learned commands like "sit" and "stay." He's even got the hang of bringing his Kong to his designated blanket area for some enrichment. While he does get excited when we (his foster parents) come home, we're working on helping him manage that enthusiasm. When out on walks, he remains calm and non-reactive around cyclists, people, and other dogs.In his dog playgroup at the shelter, Zion started out cautiously, but it wasn't long before he was happily bouncing around with his playmates. He is a sweetheart, especially during one-on-one playtime. Zion is a true gem who thrives as part of a pack and would love a forever home where he can explore, play, and make you laugh every day!If you're interested in learning more about Zion, please reach out to our volunteer matchmakers at wcac.matchmaker@gmail.com with the subject line "Zion 264064" Primary Color: Black Secondary Color: White Weight: 41 Age: 1yrs 8mths 2wks
