Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Hi! My name is Ireland Skye, aren’t I a beauty? I’m an almost 4 year old, 55lb pitbull mix, and my foster mom says I am such a special girl! She says if she didn’t already have 4 dogs, she’d keep me forever. I am a very fun girl. I love to run and play, with both my human and dog friends! I’m told I sometimes play too rough, but it’s just because I have such a zest for life! And probably because I haven’t gotten much of an opportunity to play until now! So, I’m still learning what’s appropriate. But I’m a very good girl! If you need to correct me, I will listen. I love toys and balls. I love playing in the water. I love taking walks and going on car rides. I loooove snuggles. Foster mom says I “have no regard for personal space” haha, but she says that’s okay, because I’m a great snuggle. She says older kids would be best though, because I’ll probably knock the little ones over. Sometimes something silly scares me – like a broom. So a family who would take me to training to help me with my confidence would be cool. I’m already house trained and crate trained, though, so we have a head start! Here's something super special about me - my adoption fee is SPONSORED! Mountain West Veterinary Specialists have generously offered to help me find my forever home by paying my fee!  All our regular adoption criteria apply, of course, so you have to have an approved application. You will also need to agree to take me to training classes. If you think I could be the girl for you, apply to meet me today at https://bit.ly/RRAdoptionApplication   Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.September 24, 2023, 6:08 pm

Bryan is a handsome, sweet and fun 6 year old good boy pittie mix, he loves all people and kids as much as he loves food, toys, snuggling on the couch, and ZOOMIES! Turn this guy loose in your backyard and he will zoom around with a big smile on his face! Bryan, is goofy, sweet, eager to please, treat motivated, house and crate trained, and uses a doggie door. Bryan doesn't realize how big he is when he launches himself into a lap or walks across legs to find his spot on the couch, for that reason he may be better with bigger kids.

She is full grown at about 40lbs, so is an adorable litle pocket pittie! Luna has a lot of energy and loves to use that energy playing with dogs of all sizes. She would love a doggy friend in her forever home! She also loves people of all ages and just wants to snuggle. Sometimes she forgets she needs to be calm to cuddle, but she is learning how to chill. Luna is kennel trained and mostly housetrained; she has the occasional accident. She does not do well with cats; she thinks they are fun squeaky toys. This sweet girl does really well on a leash and loves car rides. Luna is looking to join an active family where she can get all the attention and love she deserves.

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Heya friend! My name is Bessie Lou, and I would be so excited to meet you! I am about four years old and am told I am an American Pit Bull Terrier Mix. I love to cuddle, love to eat treats and play with toys. Some people have called me a Happy Hippo, not sure what that means, but I think it's a good thing! Here's some nitty gritty from my foster momma: she says I am potty trained, love to rest and relax in my kennel, and am learning each day how to walk well on a leash. She also says I would benefit from some continued training and socialization. I have some food allergies that we've been working on figuring out as well as some extra weight around my middle, but if I keep learning about walks and playing outside, I'll keep losing my "extra fluff". I am good with other dogs and also good with dog-savvy cats! Would you like to meet me? I'd love to cuddle on the couch with you! Did I mention that I give the best wettest kisses?

Hi! My name is Pibbles and I am a 5 month old pit bull x border collie (and maybe some lab?) mix pup. I am a very friendly and outgoing pup! A real social butterfly! I love everyone I meet-- adults, kids, dogs, cats. I have a moderate activity (especially for a young pup). A daily walk and a weekend hike or camping trip would be an ideal life for me. At the end of the day, I am content to snuggle down in your lap and watch your favorite TV shows. I am house-broken, crate-trained, neutered and up-to-date on my vaccinations. If you are interested in meeting me, please contact kathie@herdinghaven.org

Story
This big guy is Bowie (fka Gambit). He was adopted as a puppy 2 years ago, but he was returned to us a few months ago. Bowie started having seizures and his adopter was not able to deal with them. We have spent the past few months working out a medication protocol that controls Bowie's seizures and lets him lead a good quality of life. Bowie is a big sweetheart. He is in a foster home with several other dogs of all sizes and a group of kitties as well. Bowie does well with all of them! Bowie is a bit independent, he doesn't snuggle much, but he's happy to just hang out with you. Bowie loves napping in the grass, going on car rides, walks around the neighborhood, and curling up in his bed while binge watching Netflix with you. And he loves the occasional bite of pizza! Bowie will need a special home that can continue his medication and vet care and will be able help him deal with his seizures if they happen. This gentle boy needs a loving family that will commit to love him forever. Bowie was born Feb 2021

These pups are in Cottonwood Heights, Utah too!

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Hey y’all, My name is Dolly Lu and I’m pretty sure I love you already!! I’m a 6 month old Boxer/Pointer X. I weigh about 30lbs and will likely grow to be 45-50lbs. I’m currently working on leash training, not jumping up when the humans get home (I get so excited) and the last thing, I’m really not proud of, but I should probably be honest if this is going to work.. I have a thing for socks I know, terrible, right? I promise I will get it under control Now moving on, I want y’all to know I’m House trained, doggy door trained, crate trained, I’m good with kiddos (one of my best friends is a 5yr old) &with other dogs, and I’m smart/treat motivated to learn quickly. I’m happy to go on adventures as well as chill out at home. Speaking of adventures, I’ve been going to the farmers markets with my foster mom and it’s been a great experience!! Anywho, I’m not a picky girl, I would love a family who will play with me, snuggle me as I’m thee best cuddle bug and maybe a family that has another doggy sibling to play with. I’m so ready for a place to call home and to build a companionship with my forever family, and if you think that could be you and would like to meet me then please apply to meet me today at https://bit.ly/RRAdoptionApplication Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.September 24, 2023, 6:08 pm

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Well hello there, so nice to meet you!    My name is Lucille Two and if you are looking for a spunky girl with tons of personality I am the girl for you!  I am a two year old female Bull Terrier that weighs 45 pounds and I am looking for my furever family. Now that we have all the formalities out of the way let me tell you a little more about myself, I love going for walks, playing outdoors, splashing in the water, and getting pets and cuddles 24/7/365   I know that may make me sound needy but just because I want your attention all the time doesn't mean I'm going to  without it. I'm perfectly content in my crate(or out) with some toys or bones to entertain me. I am crate trained, potty trained, know some of my basic commands and I'm picking up on the rest FAST    I didn't have a lot of formal training when I came to my foster home but my foster family says I'm learning really well and with some dedication and love from a furever home I will be the best girl around. I am good with dogs and cats, as well as children. I currently live with Kids ages 2-13 but I can get a little jumpy when I'm excited (which is my biggest character flaw according to my foster mom ) so if you would get mad if I knock your kids over on accident while I'm still learning I may not be the best fit for your home. I have also been known to counter surf in my days, I don't think it's my fault human foods smell so good     Other than that my foster family says I'm a very sweet girl with the best smile! If you think I would be a good addition to your family you can apply to meet me at https://bit.ly/RRAdoptionApplication  Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.September 24, 2023, 6:08 pm

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Hi I’m Whinnie! I’m 5-6 months old and believed to be a Boxer mix, maybe with some Great Dane. So I will be a big girl when I’m done growing!       I’m a pretty great puppy! But I am still a puppy so I have lots of energy, love to play and still need help knowing what is good and bad. I can be a bit of a couch hog, I have long legs and I love to stretch them out on a soft couch, but don’t worry I’m also a great cuddler!       Potty training is going great. I haven’t had any accidents but I also haven’t quite figured out how to tell you I need to go potty so I do need to go outside frequently.       I’m perfect in my crate, even if you’re up and moving around I have no problem just watching quietly from my crate. I easily sleep through the night and have made it through 7 hour work shifts with no accidents in my crate. I already know sit and down, walk pretty well on leash, but could definitely still use some more training there, and have gotten much better about jumping on people. You can reach your hand into my bowl while I eat and I don’t mind when other dogs are near me while I eat either and I take treats gently.       I’m also super friendly! I’m pretty sure every person wants to be my best friend, even on walks I want to say hi to all the people we pass, and I haven’t met a dog I didn’t love! But I am willing to tell a dog when they’re being too rough with me or coming on too strong but am still happy to be their friend. I can also be very vocal when I play so don’t be alarmed by my ferocious sounds! I also like to talk to you sometimes, to let you know when I’m super excited or really want something.        I’ve only met one cat so far but was very calm and respectful! Even though I’m super interested and really wanted to be friends when she said no I backed off easily.      I would love a family that will definitely continue my training and socialization so I can grow up to be the best girl possible! In return I will be your best friend, loyal companion, and adventure and snuggle buddy. Do I sound like a match for you?
