Details
House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Is that lap open? I am a sweet 8yr Staffie mix that would love nothing better than to fill an empty lap. I love playing keep away with you with my toys. I love just being near you or if I can climb into your lap, even better. I don't bark inside and I sleep all through the night. I am crate trained. I do have an issue with my current dog roommate so I'm hoping to be a single dog tenant, that way I can get all the love! I love walks and get super excited any time we go anywhere. I am currently not a huge fan of car rides but maybe with more adventures, I will grow to love car rides. I love all kinds of treats, snuggles, and scratches/belly rubs. I am great left out of my crate even if no one is home but can also be okay in the crate. I would do best as an only dog. I would probably be best with older children as I seem to get a little stressed with little children. I'd probably do best with children, 12 years and older. I love all toys but currently my favorite is my stuffed octopus. I especially love toys with treats in them! I would love a home where I can spend lots of time with my humans. I'd need to be the only dog and that way I'd receive all the love and snuggles. My adoption fee includes a Training Program specific for my needs.

Story
I'm a 9yyr old Boxer mix and whatever you’re doing, WE’RE doing together. I have a tough exterior but honestly, I just want to be around you. I am pretty cautious around new people however, I'm easily won over with treats. I just want to hang out with my people. I'm very calm and low energy 90% of the time. The other 10% is full on sassy personality. Don't you dare leave me at home if you go out to get coffee! I NEED a pup cup! When we're hanging out, I'll follow you everywhere like a shadow. When you're gone, I'll patiently wait to greet you with the excitement of best friends who haven't seen each other in years. I bark at new noises and I'll let you know somebody is at the door before they are able to knock. I'd do best in a home as an only dog. Breed: Boxer /Mix Color: Brown/Chocolate - with White I'm very good at just hanging out and blending into your routine. I like to wake up with you in the morning, eat with you, go with you to get coffee (so I can get a pup cup of course) and just generally be around you throughout the day. I know basic cues but I'm definitely not perfect. I'm also super sassy occasionally and will have a full on conversation with you. I'm terrified of people who are afraid of me. They make me feel very uncomfortable and I just struggle to be around people like that. I don't exactly “beg” for food but I will get close to you in hopes of getting a treat. I love my treats! I'm really great about letting you know I need to go outside to potty. I will scratch at the door to get your attention. No other animals please. I do best when I can just hang out with my humans and relax. I had a sister doggo but that was years ago and since then, I am reactive to other animals. I MIGHT be able to adjust although it would take the perfect circumstances and some extreme patience with introductions. I really like children from about 10 years old and up. I love to play “Blanket Monster” where my little humans hide under the blanket as I run around and nibble at them and try to uncover them. This always leads to hysterical laughter and a good time for all. I'm very gentle with my little humans. Younger kids scare me so I'd do best in a home without them. I don't really play with toys. I get my enjoyment from walkies, food time, pup cups and sun bathing followed by more walkies. My Ideal forever home is a family with older kids where somebody is almost always (if not always) home. A stay at home parent, a human that works from home, or a schedule that means I always have a human to hang out with is best. I would like a house with a yard (doesn't have to be big) where I can roam around the backyard and sunbathe whenever I feel like it. My ideal humans would be able to continue to feed me a fresh food diet. It's what has helped me stay so healthy and the food is SO GOOD! I need somebody who understands I'm an amazing doggo who just happens to be particular about certain things. I look forward to us getting to know each other!

Story
****FOSTER NEEDED!**** Rescuing Ranger Dog is ready for his furever home! I'm an extroverted guy who loves attention and being petted. I'm good at the groomers and have my basic obedience cues down. I have a sweet, sensitive soul. I love my ball and playing fetch means everything to me. I also enjoy adventures. What's not to love about me? General Socialization Notes: If it were up to me, I'd snuggle up to my family all day every day, or go on an adventures with them. I love car rides. I've learned to be quiet during the day at my foster mom's feet while she works. I used to get sad and anxious when she left, but I've become very familiar with going into my crate while she's gone or snuggling up on the couch until she returns. She also bought me a snuggle puppy stuffed animal that has a 'heartbeat' and I've loved curling up with it in my crate. It's really helped me settle in quickly in my crate! She also crates me at night when she goes to bed. I developed some noise sensitivity but it may have been due to stress. Does Ranger like other animals? I sometimes react to dogs on leashes and behind fences as I pass them, but I've been working really hard over the last month on my training and am getting better about ignoring them and not being as afraid they might pop out from the fence. I do resource guard so I might do best as an only dog. I tried to meet a cat once, but wasn't given ample time and boundaries to get familiar with the cat. If a family is interested in me that has a cat, I'll need time to warm up to it and proper introduction methods to see how I might do. I've been to a barn that houses horses, and was introduced to them while being on leash. I really wasn't interested in them and didn't react as I do with dogs while being on leash. When we ran out in the field where horses were being ridden, I was WAY more interested in a ball and playing fetch. Does Ranger like children? While I haven't been exposed to children, it might be best if children in the house were slightly older (8+). Sometimes I get really excited about toys, and I'm still learning the 'drop it' cue. A late grade school, middle schooler, and high schooler might better understand to be patient with me. Favorite Toys: My favorite activity has been going to a field and retrieving a thrown ball over and over again. Inside the house, I love playing fetch, but I also love playing keep away. It's so much fun! Really any dog toy will get me excited if my new family is willing to throw it for me! Ideal Forever Home: My ideal home would be one with a patient person or family who will love me unconditionally. I'd love a family that I can snuggle up to on the couch with, who will throw a ball or toy for me, and bring me along on their adventures and car rides! I would do best as an only dog. I love going for walks. If my next home has a fence around the yard or farm land, I'd love to spend time in the yard with them as they do yard work or play with me. I have a lot of love to give, and am ready to have a place in my furever home.
