Story
I’m an adult boy with a brindle spot on my right eye and another between my left eye and ear. That means, as Rocket, I’m spot on for a landing in your forever home! 🎂 Rockets have payloads, which are like gifts! These are my gifts to you: I’m friendly, mellow, happy, social , and loving. 🚐 I went to an event at a car dealership and did very well with people and children in a busy place. 🐕‍🦺 I am good walking on leash. That means-- 🌄 I would love to go on hikes and walks! 🚙 And I would love to go on other adventures. 🐶I have done well with shelter dogs. So if you have a pooch, 🤝let’s do a meet and greet. The universe is big. It’s the final frontier. So, I think, if I’m Rocket, you can be my landing pad. Wait! I just made a joke! Forever home. Landing pad. Hah! 😀 Maybe we can do human/dog comedy together.

Story
I’m a beautiful, dark-grey lab/pit gal, smallish in size, and almost an adult. But I do chase chickens, so my forever home should be cluck-free. 🌄 My initial excitement about adventures, like hiking or meeting people, wears off quickly, but maybe that’s true for you. Who wouldn’t be excited at potential cuddles or at seeing the sunset on the western horizon? 🐕I have done well with other shelter dogs. 🐕‍🦺 I am good walking on leash and I love people. 🔁 I listen and redirect quickly, which means, especially with treats 🥖, 🍎 that I am ready to learn new tricks! 🎠 I’m playful, amusement my game. 💖 I’m a happy-go-lucky pooch. Let’s “cut” to the Delilah, me kind of funny about Samson’s hair, but it wasn’t me! I didn’t do it! Instead, let’s do this: “hair” today, us forever. We don’t need to “play chicken” about our love for each other.

I like walks, parks, and sprinklers. That last one is amazing for a phoenix, no? Maybe not, for my love and devotion for my furever human will last forever, like a phoenix. 😴I can be left alone for quite a while. 💥I’m energetic, so walks and hikes would be great. 🌄 So if you like hikes, I’m ready to go! ⚾️I would like to learn how to play with toys. Let’s explore! ❤️I am shy at first, but with time warm right up to new friends. 📷 I’m a handsome guy, very photogenic, with lots of colors in my fur. 🏠I would love to go to your forever home. Yeah, I’m a dog, not a mythological bird that's reborn forever, but you and I can have a fresh start, resilient in our connection, strong in our love and devotion. Come check me out!

Story
Cali is an 8-year-old Bull Terrier (58 lbs) currently in Rio Rancho, NM, looking for a calm, loving home. He was surrendered on Christmas Day after spending his whole life with one owner, and it’s clear he didn’t always have it easy—he has old bite scars and can be a bit shy when approached. Despite that, Cali is incredibly loving and wants nothing more than to be your shadow. He bonds deeply with his person and thrives on constant companionship. He is fully vetted, neutered, good with other dogs, rides well in the car, and is comfortable in a crate. Cali can be a little anxious at times (may spin when overwhelmed), but he is smart and responds well to calm guidance. He has a mild back issue that flares up with too much activity, so a moderate, steady lifestyle is best. He should also be crated when unsupervised (he has a soft spot for destroying pillows 😅). Cali is looking for someone patient, understanding, and ready for a loyal best friend.
