Story

A cuddler and social butterfly! This big boy is a big love. He is a happy boy, low maintenance, enjoys hiking, walking , car rides, massages and ice-cream cones.  He will follow you around, lay by you, walk nicely on leash and crash on a bed or couch (a little snoring may be included).  George came to us from a county shelter. They said he was aggressive with other dogs. We never saw that, and he has been very friendly with a large male dog, but as a precaution, we would recommend he be the one and only canine family member.   He likes the outdoors but wants to be with you so he is looking for an indoor home where he can provide and have companionship.  He has lived with other dogs, did well with mindful, considerate older kids. George does not like cats. He is our trainers favorite and comes with continued free training.

Details

Good with dogs, Not good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Maximus, or Max, had a person and home of his own, but all that changed when his person got diagnosed with an aggressive form of cancer and she sadly passed away. Some of the womans friends knew her prognoses was poor and advocated for Max to try and find him a home. Sadly, she passed away before one was found and he was sent to a high kill shelter. Max was very much loved and enjoyed all the comforts of home which he happily shared with another dog (a black lab). He had also been around other dogs including small dogs (poodle). In his current temporary home, he has also been around a small dog (Doxi). He has reportedly been friendly around children, however, he does have a prior bite incident. It's possible could have been related to his loss since his whole world turned upside down, or due to a prior illness. but even though he has done well with both, we would like to place him in a home where there are no small dogs or children. He is a powerful boy so needs a savvy handler. He reportedly did well at the shelter being handled by staff and techs even under duress and he did well during his vet visit.  His caretaker says he is a sucker for scratches and walks with such a swagger. He is housetrained, well behaved, crate trained and rides well in a car.  Max is vaccinated, vet checked, neutered, microchipped and is ready to start a new beginning with a loving person and safe home to help heal his heart.   Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.April 29, 2024, 12:38 pm

Story

National Adopt a Senior Pet Month - $0 Adoption Fee Hey there, I'm Odin, a chunky tripod who loves the simple pleasures in life. You know, snuggling, giving kisses, and going for leisurely strolls - long walks on the beach sound dreamy, but I'm perfectly content with walks along the road too! Here's a bit more about me: I may only have three legs, but I'm impressively fast when I'm excited, especially when it comes to seeing my favorite people. I might be a little shy at first, but don't let that fool you. In time, you'll find that I'm a loyal and amazing companion who's just waiting for the right match. Aside from my favorite humans and delicious food, I have a soft spot for belly rubs. Having a warm lap to snuggle up on while we watch movies would make me as happy as can be. If you're someone who appreciates the beauty of simplicity, enjoys a good snuggle, and is looking for a loyal companion, I might just be the one you've been searching for.

Story

Hi there, I'm Frankie, and I've been on quite the journey. I've held many titles since then - "stray dog," "backyard dog," and now "shelter dog." But what I'm really hoping for is to hold the title of "family dog" in a loving home. I'm approximately 4 years old and ready to find my forever family. Here are some things you should know about me: I walk well on a leash, so we can explore together. I'm a bit selective when it comes to other dogs, so introductions are a must. No cats or small dogs for me, please. I'm an active and playful pup who loves toys. Let's have some fun! I especially love a good game of tug. I'm a pro at it! I'm best suited for a home with kids aged 12 and up due to my size and energy. I'm ready for a fresh start and a forever family to call my own. If you think we could be the perfect match, please complete an adoption application to learn more about adopting me. I promise to fill your life with love, fun, and endless tail wags. Let's make the next chapter of my life the best one yet. Please share this post to help me find my forever home! Adoption application: https://bit.ly/44dKWUv Foster application.

Story

Hey there, pals! I'm Snoopy. I'm a 6-year-old pittie with a heart full of love and plenty of endearing qualities. Let me tell you a bit more about myself: I'm crate trained and housebroken (know th dog door) so I'm a pro at keeping things tidy. I get along famously with dogs smaller and bigger, and I'm great with kids! I've lived with a crazy little 4-year-old boy. I'm not just a good boy; I have excellent manners, and I've been told I look fabulous in everything I wear. Fashion is my middle name! But there's more to me than meets the eye. I'm not just a survivor; I'm a fighter. I've battled cancer, and I'm here to prove that love and determination can conquer anything. I have this fantastic quality where I look absolutely adorable when I'm catching some Z's. I'm also the best cuddler in the world, and my foster mom will vouch for that. She says, "Probably his cuddling - as soon as you are sitting anywhere near the ground, he immediately comes over to you and just wants to be by your side." If you're willing to open your heart and home to a cancer survivor like me, I promise to be the best pup in the world. Let's create beautiful memories and embark on a wonderful journey together. Please consider submitting an application to give me a chance at being your best boy. I'm ready to fill your life with love, joy, and endless cuddles!

Story

Hey there, everyone! I'm Davey, and I'm so excited to introduce myself. I'm not just any pup - I'm an affectionate, cuddle-loving, smooch-giving love bug! If you're looking for a companion who knows how to spread love, I'm your guy. Here's a bit more about me: I'm moderately active, so I enjoy a good run and some backyard exploration. But when it's time to come inside, I'm a champ at calming down. Give me a chew toy, and I'm one happy camper. If water is your thing, count me in! I absolutely adore chasing streams of water from the hose. It's one of my favorite pastimes. I'm pretty chill around other dogs, as long as they're respectful of my space. A proper introduction is key to ensure we get along famously. I'm a good-natured, sweet, and happy boy, and I'm ready for a loving forever home. Please don't leave me here - I might just be the gem you've been waiting for! If you have space in your heart and home for a furry friend like me, reach out and let's meet.

Story

New spotta bio Will you help me find my BFF please share me Hi my name is spotta im a 24 month pup that is active. I'm looking for my BFF to hang out with to love me, to guide me and spend time with me! In return! I want someone to love so bad that will love me back always and forever. Do you have a Best friend? Well i don't and i need one badly. I've never had one. Right now i sit in a air conditioned garage most of the day waiting for my BFF. It is very lonely. Are you lonely? I have so much love to give you. I have some people that love me that are helping me to find my best friend forever. I would do best with a single handler that is strong and somewhat experienced and that will listen to what i need. My best friend should know my favorite thing is belly rubs and tug a war. I also love water, maybe we could swim, I'm not sure about swimming but i like water! My best friend would need to have the following (sorry to put limitations on friendship, but i promise I'm worth it) He or she would need to have 1. No other animals or kids. 2. A quiet home without a lot of people 3. Be active! I love to run, play, walk and go for rides. My breed is very active. I would need this Daly. 4. Since i can jump a fence (yes even 8 feet) i would either need to be leashes at all times when outside or have coyote rollers on fence. If you don't have those then I'm fine with walks. I cannot ever be left unattended in the yard with out a leash on. 4. I can hold my potty for 8-10 hours a day and can patiently wait for you to come home if you work. Just leave me with some toys and water, And i will be happily waiting for you to get home. I don't chew up anything, and would love to be waiting for you to come home, so i can jump for joy and give lots of kisses and love. Please keep in mind I do still need my exercise though, daily. 5. Must have no breed restrictions 6. Must be firm, but loving and a little experienced and willing to listen to what is needed for me. Be willing to work with me daily on my training. So i can learn more. I'm eager to learn. And love learning. 7. New people coming up to me make me nervous, even in a home. I need a proper introduction and i may NOT like everyone. So i need someone that understands that and someone that wont introduce me to a lot of new people: or someone that will put me away in a kennel when company comes over. (We are working on this, but i am picky about my human friends) and just dislike some people, I'm sure you know how that is! 8. Would not take me to dog parks or anywhere there are animals loose. I don't like other animals. 9. I have learned to walk on a leash without being reactive to other dogs, but you must be willing to continue the work with me. I do come with a nice muzzle if you would like to use it when I'm in public. It is suggested. Because people like to run up to me and say hi and i don't always like that. Also stray dogs come up to and i really don't like that. I need Someone that will love me forever and ever and not give up on me, it would break my heart! Can that be you?
