Hi I'm Sully, but my foster mama mostly calls me mush face or squishy. I'm a really friendly and social guy - I love other dogs, am great meeting new people and have lived with young kids. I do have a good amount of energy, so would do best in an active home where I will get daily exercise, and another playful dog would be great also!  If you're interested in meeting me please fill out an application at www.thegooddogrescue.org (If you already have an approved application, please email thegooddogrescueadoptions@gmail.com with your interest in me!) My adoption fee is $300 and I am neutered, microchipped and up to date on vaccinations ##1876383##

Story
Hey guys, its me Maverick and I am looking for a new home preferably with another dog friend my size and people who can dedicate some time to training and socializing me. I do really well at doggie daycare and at the dog park - I love to run and play with other dogs. I am potty trained, sleep through the night in my bed, and know “sit, lay down, off, and go to bathroom”  and am working on “focus, wait, go to bed and place”. I enjoy going for walks but need some work on my leash manners (I really want to chase the bunnies and squirrels). I love to play with toys, especially enrichment ones (lick mats, snuffle mats, puzzle games), and of course bones and treats.   I enjoy watching all the people walking by my house.  I may have a little bit of separation anxiety when alone, so building a routine and having a doggie friend may help. I’m wary of some strangers and will need time to warm up. I know that with some people dedicated to my training that I can be the bestest boy - will you take a chance on me? If you're interested in meeting me please fill out an application at www.thegooddogrescue.org (If you already have an approved application, please email thegooddogrescueadoptions@gmail.com with your interest in me!) My adoption fee is $300 and I am neutered, microchipped and up to date on vaccinations.  The rescue also provides free weekly training classes that I have been coming to and continue to come to for as long as needed!  ##1801151##

Hi my name is Rocky! A bit about me: I get along fine with dogs and like to play chase with them, but  prefer getting attention from people. I have lived with kids, so would do fine as a family dog. I am housebroken and walk nicely on leash. I do have quite a bit of energy and would do best with a good amount of daily exercise and mental stimulation. I love to cuddle and hang out with my people, so need a home where people are around most of the time.  If you're looking for a really fun, active, friendly squishy boy to add to your life, fill out an app below! Cant wait to meet you!  If you're interested in meeting me, please fill out an application at www.thegooddogrescue.org My adoption fee is $200 and I am neutered, microchipped and up to date on vaccinations ##1113987##

Meet King Wasabi, a spirited, clever dog with a playful, energetic demeanor. In a magical twist, Wasabi was once a royal hound in a kingdom of dogs, renowned for his intelligence and vivacity.

He`s still the same smart, lively dog who once ruled a kingdom, waiting for a loving family to share his regal spirit.

Story
Eva is such a sweetheart. She does good with the kids, and will be 2 years old in May. She is mostly up to date on her shots just missing a couple boosters. She is energetic because she is still young but wears out easily with a walk a day. We have two young kids and it has just been too much for us as we are going through some life stuff. She is a very affectionate dog so we would love for her to go to someone who just wants to cuddle her and be around her as much as possible. We have two cats and she does very well around them with the occasional desire to chase, but she would never harm them. She does very well around other dogs and is overall very friendly. She has never been aggressive towards anyone or any other animal. She has basic training such as sit, stay, come and does well on walks although we do still use a nose lead (which we will provide). She is also kennel trained and does well with that. We truly want the best home for her.

Story
Reba is a wonderful dog! We originally acquired her from my mom’s neighbor who was not able to keep her. We took her on intending to find her a forever home. That was nearly 4 years ago! We did not ever see us having animals due to allergies within the family, and our busy schedules but she unexpectedly grew on us! She is comfortable in her kennel, but doesnt like to be in there all day while we are at work. She is amazing around kids, (even littles!) other dogs and cats! She is house trained and kennel trained. Loves to be active, but tires out easily. She ideally needs someone who can give her tons of attention, and lots of cuddles for when she tires herself out. She has a lot of personality, and is an extremely loyal dog.

Story
Kora is an absolute love bug that completely enjoys being by your side and giving snuggles. She is a big goofball that loves toys, treats and of course food. She is a spayed 6yrs old and current on shots. She needs to be in a 1 dog household. She is super super sweet and will give lots of love and affection. She is reactive towards other animals especially other dogs. She absolutely needs to be in a home where she is the only animal. She has to be inside most of the time and walked with lots of training and caution. She is a wonderful dog that needs a new home with someone who has time to spend working with her. I live in an RV and it’s just not working after months of trying. Please help I want the very best for her and unfortunately I can’t give her that. Thank you!
