Good with kids, Good with dogs, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Meet Andy and Lola, a bonded pair of sweet, well-trained dogs in need of a loving home. Andy, aged between 8 and 10, and Lola, estimated to be 3 to 5 years old, are healthy and affectionate companions. They have seamlessly integrated into our household, getting along very well with both our other dogs and our young children, aged 5 and 2, who adore them. Despite their individual quirks, such as Andy's slight difficulty with stairs and Lola's fear of loud noises, they have proven to be adaptable and loving pets. They've had no history of causing any household issues, such as accidents or destructive behavior. Both dogs have been fed a nutritious diet of Costco dog food and have remained in good health during their time with us. We are committed to finding them a loving home where they can stay together, as they share a special bond that we would hate to see broken. We are only considering adopters willing to take both dogs together. Can you give them a home they need and deserve?

House-trained, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Prince, a regal and cool canine, embodies the best qualities of his namesake. He's just as content lounging in the sun, nibbling on blades of grass, as he is frolicking in a creek. Despite his initial shyness at the shelter, Prince lights up with adorable bursts of zoomies when he sees his people. This beefy boy has a weakness for cheeseburgers, evident by the drool-inducing enthusiasm he displays. But beyond his love for treats, Prince has a heart of gold. Volunteers note that he appreciates the simple pleasures in life and isn't burdened by wild puppy energy - he's just a big meatball who adores meatballs.Prince is eager to find his forever home where he can enjoy ample cuddle time. With a bit of patience and ongoing training, he'll blossom into the perfect companion. Prince is housebroken, crate trained, and seeks a household with individuals aged 16 and older. Potential adopters can bring their resident dogs for a meet and greet at the shelter to ensure compatibility. However, Prince isn't a fan of cats. If you're ready to welcome a furry family member with a royal name and a heart full of love, don't hesitate to meet Prince. He's ready to reign supreme in your heart and home!
