Story
I am very energetic and need exercise. I am a very affectionate dog and always want to cuddle. I will crawl right into your lap for a hug. I was raised with another dog and we have always played well together. I play rowdy, but I am good natured. I have no history of biting. I prefer to play chase and tug. I like kids, but need to be watched closely with little kids, due to my playful nature. I can get very excitable when people come to the door and need correction. I am fearful of loud noises (thunder and fireworks). I warm up to new people within minutes when encouraged by someone I trust to meet the new person. I shed throughout the year and have a short single coat.

Story
Thanks to Melissa Carlton State Farm Agent, Gerald's adoption fee is waived! With supporters like Melissa, all dogs have second chances and their futures look bright. Hi! I am Gerald! I have been with my current foster mom and dad for a few months and I ready to find my forever home! I am about 9 years old (even though my foster mom says I don't act 9). I was found roaming the streets by a kind police officer who brought me to Gateway Pet Guardians. Because I am an older boy, I come with many perks that GPG offers to my family like free training sessions! I am very smart and very food motivated. I love to play with treat puzzles, and I have a favorite "licky ball that my foster mom fills with frozen bone broth or goats milk and it's amazing. When the weather is bad, she likes to give me licky mats that she says works my brain even though I can't go outside. I love walks, stuffies, balls and chew bones. I love it when you come home from work. I love it so much that I will greet you with my favorite toy of the day. If I have a very special toy, I will take it outside and bury it. I'm very good at hiding my toys so that only I know where they are. I sleep all night in my crate, but I do like to have a stuffy and my favorite blanket with me. Although I'm more than happy to sleep with you if that makes you feel better! Because I came from the streets, I have some scars on my body and legs, but that doesn't stop me. I get around VERY well, but one thing that happened to me is that I have to wear a belly band because I don't always know when I have to pee. I do sometimes, but not always. I think people feel like this is a bad thing. But it' s no different than babies wearing a diaper. I don't mind them at all. I just need you to keep me clean and change them a few times a day. My foster mom says I come with about 10 of them, so you don't have to do laundry every day....she doesn't like to do laundry that often.

Story
This is Zues. Zues lived with his previous owner from puppy until he was 6. He was then dumped on the streets by a family member of his owner who said they would take care of him since his owner was no longer able. Due to the extreme change in his life, Zues is an anxious guy when you first meet him. After he warms up, he is the sweetest boy in the world. He loves ear rubs and cuddles. He is nuetured, house trained, and up to date on shots. He does not chew up things when left alone except for his toys. He loves kongs and tennis balls. Zues is partially blind. Our vet thinks it is something that he was born with and currently can only see a little bit, probably mostly shadows. He gets around fine but will trip over/run into things from time to time. The vet said the disease will eventually cause full blindness but no other health concerns. Due to his semi-blindness he is nervous around other dogs and would need to be the only dog in the home.

Hey there, I'm Samuel, but you can call me Sam-everyone does! I'm a playful, snack-loving guy with a face that's just begging for kisses (seriously, come give me some love!). Playing is one of my favorite things-I'm always up for a game, whether it's fetch, tug-of-war, or just running around having a blast. And let's not forget about snacks! I'm a big fan of tasty treats, and I'm always ready to show off my best "please can I have one? look to score a bite. I've got expressive ears that tell you exactly how I'm feeling (trust me, they're pretty cute), and a kissable face that you'll want to shower with affection. If you're looking for a fun-loving, treat-obsessed pup with a heart full of personality, I think we'd be a perfect match. Let's meet soon-I promise I'll make you smile!
