Story
Meet Raymond — Still the King of Chill 👑☀️Raymond is an almost 11-year-old gentleman who was found as a stray, leaving his past a bit of a mystery. What we do know is this: Raymond has fully embraced the art of taking life slow and savoring the simple joys—preferably from a warm, sunny spot.A true senior soul, Raymond appreciates the little things: a cozy place to lounge, leisurely strolls, and a good scratch behind the ears. Rainy days aren’t his favorite (they interfere with his sunbathing schedule), and he prefers to be the only animal in his kingdom. While he’s not much for cuddling, he truly enjoys being petted and treated with the respect a king deserves.Raymond has been in our care for 394 days and counting, patiently waiting for his forever home. Despite the time that’s passed, he remains sweet, mellow, and quietly hopeful that someone will see him for the gentle companion he is.Please note: Raymond does have daily medications that will need to be continued—but he takes them like a champ.If your perfect day includes soaking up the sunshine with a calm, loyal companion by your side, Raymond is ready to rule your heart—one sunbeam at a time.Please apply to adopt at: http://www.pawsgh.org

Story
Bug’s story began a few years ago when he was abandoned at our facility in the middle of the night alongside his mom, Ruby. Unsure of the world and lacking early stability, Bug grew up learning to navigate life at his own pace. In time, he and Ruby were adopted together, and we were hopeful they had found their forever home.Due to unfortunate and uncontrollable circumstances, Bug has now returned to us and is once again looking for a patient and understanding home.Bug is a gentle, sensitive boy who is still learning to feel confident in new situations. While he may be unsure at first, he has made incredible progress and continues to grow braver every day. He no longer shuts down the way he once did—instead, he approaches new people with curiosity, slowly working up the courage to come over and offer a few cautious sniffs.He does best when he’s allowed to move at his own pace and thrives in calm, low-pressure environments. Bug has formed bonds with staff and volunteers over time and, once he feels safe, shows his incredibly sweet and soft personality. Treats are one of the best ways to earn his trust and help him open up.Bug is still very early in his confidence-building journey and is not yet ready for busy outings or fast-paced experiences. He continues to take things one step at a time, learning that the world can be safe and predictable when approached gently.Bug shares a very special bond with Ruby, and we would love for them to find a home together again. She brings him comfort and helps him feel more secure as he continues to grow.Bug is a tender, soulful boy who just needs time, patience, and understanding. For the right person, watching him learn to trust will be an incredibly meaningful experience.Please apply to adopt at: http://www.pawsgh.org

Story
Ruby’s story is one of resilience and second chances. A few years ago, she was abandoned at our facility alongside her son, Bug, unsure of the world around her and learning everything from scratch. Despite that difficult start, Ruby began to trust and quickly showed us the sweet, loving dog she truly is. In time, she and Bug were adopted together, and we were hopeful they had found their forever home.Due to unfortunate and uncontrollable circumstances, Ruby and Bug have been returned to our care and are once again searching for a place to call their own.Today, Ruby is a happy, affectionate, and social girl who greets most people with excitement. She has come so far from her early days and truly enjoys being around people, soaking up attention, and making new friends. She has settled back into our routine wonderfully and loves spending time with staff and volunteers—whether it’s heading out for walks, going on little adventures, or just enjoying some quality cuddle time.Ruby does get excited on leash and is still working on her manners, but she’s eager and continues to improve with consistency. Her playful personality really shines during her zoomies in the yard. She can get going fast and fully commit to the moment, sometimes forgetting to hit the brakes—so be ready for some laughs and the occasional enthusiastic “bounce” your way!After playtime, Ruby is all about a good nap and recharging for her next adventure. She’s also still learning about personal space and greetings. Ruby doesn’t quite realize her size and may jump up or try to climb into your lap if given the chance, but with continued guidance, she’s making great progress.We do not have a known history of Ruby with cats or small animals and would recommend slow, thoughtful introductions.Ruby has been through a lot of change in her life, but through it all, she has blossomed into a loving, joyful dog who is ready to be part of a family again. 💛Please apply to adopt at: http://www.pawsgh.org

Details
Not good with kids, Not good with dogs, Not good with cats, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Cruz is a 3 year old pit bull terrier mix. He spent 3 months in the shelter in Tacoma. Adopted at the end of May 2025.Cruz is fully vaccinated and chipped. He has regular grooming appointments, does not like to have his teeth cleaned or nails clipped. But enjoys chewing on cleaning sticks.He is house trained he knows some commands like sit and will go to his kennel when prompted. He likes walks and is currently on a lead leash. He does not like cats. Cruz is a bit reactive when it comes to new faces, but with some patience and treats, he can be swayed. He is especially apprehensive towards men and those of large stature. Cruz is a very playful and strong pup and he'll need someone who can match that energy. It is preferable that he is not placed on a family with younger children.

Story
Maisy is a wonderful dog. She’s an amazing walker, does great with kids, other dogs, and cats. She is happy going out on long walks and playing in water, but is also always ready to snuggle on the couch. We would love to keep her but we have a senior dog who regardless of all our efforts, is not acclimating well to her. For her safety we have to keep her separated from the senior and I feel she deserves more attention than we can give right now.

Story
Bella was attacked by coyotes when she lived with her previous owner and had to have her front right leg amputated. But that doesn’t slow her down! She’s so goofy and playful. She loves playing ball, and tug of war with a rope. She also loves playing with other dogs, and cuddling with her humans. She does well with kids, and has always been very attentive to our son. She loves being outside and exploring new places, but does have some car anxiety. While having 3 legs doesn’t stop her from running around outside, she does get tired easily and can’t handle long walks.
