Story
It is impossible to not feel happiness and joy when we get to hang out with Diamond. Her gleeful personality is contagious and she makes everyone smile around her. Whether she is in two feet of snow or is snuggling up in the office, Diamond is wonderful to be around. Diamond's ideal adopter would be someone who likes to snuggle close to their dog. She likes to sit right next to you and ask for belly rubs once she knows you. She's met kiddos around 8-years-old and she had full body wiggles when she saw them! She's done best interacting with equally playful and friendly male dogs. Diamond would prefer no kitties. So, she's quite versatile! She could be adopted into a home with or without kiddos as well as with or without dog friends (depending on the resident pup!) When we're outside with her, she'll get short spurts of zoomie energy. She makes us laugh because her zoomies aren't exactly of normal zooming speed, but she sure tries! Then Diamond rolls over for belly rubs and will kerplop onto your lap for cuddle and affection. Diamond would love to go for car rides so her big ears can flutter out the window. We think she'd also enjoy a beach or neighborhood walkie, and then curling up on the couch to watch TV. She'll be a wonderful family dog to a lucky family. She is about five years old, is spayed, and is an absolute pleasure to be around.

Story
Hank is the epitome of a good boy, and has the best manners! He knows how to sit, lay down, stay, come, and is learning how to shake paws! He loves snuggling and has no idea that he is a bigger boy to be a lap dog! He will lay politely right next to you, if asked! Otherwise, he'll be as close as allowed because he is such a love bug. Hank is one of the most people-oriented dogs you will meet. On his field trips, he wants to say hello to each and every person he meets! Including respectful kiddos! As far as other furry friends go, Hank does well when he sees dogs out in public! He has adorable play bows and interacts nicely. In the home, though, he asked us to relay that he would prefer it to be just him! He has tested positive for Lyme disease, so, it is very important for whoever adopts him to continue tick prevention. He is about two and a half years old and is neutered.

Story
Look at my smile! It should tell you how interactive and friendly I am! I am one of those pups who is just a happy, happy good boy. I love people and have done great with other equally friendly dog friends. My name is Felix and I am so hopeful that we can adopt each other. I love to run and play. I also love to be close to you and receive back massages. I know how to sit like the well-mannered gentleman that I am, too. Let me see...my ideal day... I'd love to have a balance of fun activities but also some lazy leisure. Like I said, I love to run and be active! I'm so fast! So, maybe we could go for walkies or joggies together? If you are someone who likes to take your dog with you wherever you go, I'd fit that role perfectly because I'm so extroverted! I know how to sit and I take treats very politely. I'm not sure what this "personal space" is that the humans speak of. I mean, aren't we supposed to be near each other? Welp, I think so, so that is all that matters! I'm about three years old and I'm neutered. Love, Felix.

Story
Well, hello, new friends! I'm Simba. I'm about 40-pounds, am neutered, and am about one year old. I've loved living with other furry friends and also have absolutely cherished my time with the kiddos (as young as 3 years old) I used to live with. So, basically, I'm the perfect family pup! I want to be a part of everything that is happening in my home. Let's expand on this a little bit...I love affection and attention. I love when my family is around and it makes my puppy so happy. I am crate-trained but I am most content when someone is home. I'd love it if my adopters were home often or if they would teach me that it is okay to have some puppy chill time by myself. I love going for walks, snuggling, unning, chewing on Kongs, and gnawing on bones. Can we please, please, please become a family? Love, Simba.

Story
We don't even know where to start with telling you about Luna because this girl is that awesome! She loves everyone! The reason she is smiling in all her pictures is because she is the happiest girl ever! And her snorts! She runs around the dog park sniffing and snorting and she is just the cutest in the whole world. Luna has lived with other dog friends before! Depending on your resident pup, maybe they would get along nicely! She loves receiving all the attention that respectful, sturdy kiddos offer. She would be the best fursister to them. We're not sure what she thinks about kitties. She has done quite well in the crate and doesn't cause any commotion when left alone. Luna also does great with being house-trained! She knows how to sit, lay down, and take treats nicely. We are teaching her how to walk politely on a leash; she seems to do best when harnessed. Going for walks, snuggling, and riding shotgun next to you in the car are a few of her favorite things to do. Luna brightens up every room she is in. Her tail wags nonstop and she just wants someone to pet her and tell her she is pretty. Luna is a little over one and a half years old and is spayed.

Story
Look at the difference in all of her photos...Nala came into MHS at 39-pounds. She has since gained 20-pounds and is at a wonderful, healthy weight. Her skin has improved and has turned into a beautiful, soft coat. But, the one thing that has not changed in Nala since she arrived is how loving she is. From her initial intake to present day, Nala has wanted love; to show love, to be loved. Her attitude and personality were never anything less than exuberantly joyful. She trusted us immediately and has shown everyone how special and deserving of a family she is. Her ideal family would be one where she can join them for daily walks. She would also love to play fetch with tennis balls because that makes her so happy! She is the best fetcher ever! She also loves sniffing through snufflemats. Nala is a treat-motivated gal! Oh, and another amazing thing about her is that she takes treats so gently. In her previous home, she has lived with kiddos about 10ish and up. She'd love to be the only furbaby in her new home and redirects very nicely when she sees other pups out and about. She'll also redirect for a tennis ball or squeaky toy! She also did great in her crate in her previous home. We cannot say enough good things about her. Nala is about six years old and is spayed.

Story
One of the many wonderful things about Sasha is how she matches the energy of whoever she is with. If we are playing, Sasha is playing. If we are calm, Sasha is calm. If Sasha is hanging with other shelter dogs and they want to play, she wants to play. If they prefer sniffing, she will go her own way to sniff, too. If it is time for training and enrichment, Sasha is all in for the entire session. She is the most people-oriented dog and thrives on relationships. And speaking of relationships, her interactions with other friendly shelter dogs have been quite positive! Depending on the resident dog, she may do great with a fursibling! In her previous home, she did wonderful at being house-trained and was most content to stay in a bedroom while she was hanging by herself. She's a great car rider, too! Sasha is a perfect balance of playful, social, but also a little shy. She is a very relational girl when it comes to getting to know new people. A slow intro with yummy treats has been the way to her heart. Teenagers and older in the home would be best! She is a younger gal, a little less than three years old and is about 50-pounds. Come meet this lovebug.
