Story
If your dream dog is a road-trip buddy, car-camping companion, and passenger-seat co-pilot, meet Purpose! This sweet girl absolutely LOVES car rides and would be thrilled to have a person who enjoys taking their dog along for the adventure. Whether it’s a weekend road trip, a camping getaway, or simply tagging along for errands, Purpose is ready to be your copilot! Purpose can be nervous around new people and will need a little time to warm up, so she’ll do best with a patient adopter who lets her approach at her own pace and uses positive reinforcement to build trust. Once comfortable, she enjoys exploring and spending time with her people, even rolling over for belly rubs. She is an intelligent girl ready for that any adventure and for her forever family to find her and be able to add the enrichment to her life that she is wanting.

Story
Chico is a 2-year-old big-headed goofball with a laid-back personality and a serious talent for sniffing! He loves exploring his surroundings and is happiest when he can take his time investigating all the interesting smells around him.Chico walks well on leash with just a little pulling when something catches his attention. He’s not much of a toy guy yet, but he may discover his playful side with time. He’s also a professional slobberer, so his future family should be prepared for plenty of drool and plenty of love!If you`re looking for a nonchalant, curious companion with a giant head, a big personality, and an impressive slobber game, Chico could be your guy!

Story
Yarr mateys, Swashbuckler is ready to sail the seven seas to find a home of his own. Swashbuckler is curious and silly with some outgoing energy, but he`s more softie than daring rogue. In fact, sometimes he likes to fold his lanky self right into your lap for cuddles.Swashbuckler is estimated to be around a year old and still has some oversized puppyish charms. He has a sensitive side but becomes brave quickly with a friend by his side. Then he`s ready to romp, frolic, play and cuddle the day away. With other dogs in play group, he has been social and playful.Swashbuckler is a curious, silly guy at heart who with so much potential. He can be bouncy when he is excited but responds well to guidance. In a home routine, we think he`ll be quick to settle into a routine. The kennel chaos is stressful for hime, so he`d love to find some peace and quiet in a home.Swashbuckler weighs 48 lbs though he is still working on gaining weight.
