Story
Are you a one or two adult household looking for a companion to all out spoil who will repay with infinite cuddles? Berry (the Snuggler) is your man. Berry is a really sweet and good boy. He is young and active but is happy to chill and chew on a bone by your side. Berry loves being close to his people and wants to please so badly that our foster mom has taken advantage of this and taught him some basic tricks and commands. He is motivated by both food and attention. Berry had quite the unfair start to life and came from a hoarding situation where the children and 3 dogs were taken away. It is clear that though he may have been loved, being taught good doggy manners was not the top priority. Berry does really well with the foster’s current 2 dogs, BUT those dogs generally get along with all dogs so if you do have “dog selective” dogs Berry may not be the best fit (again, lacking some manners). Once Berry settles in to his home he will protect it and his humans so we recommend slow introductions to new people - a home without a lot of strangers coming in and out constantly may be best. Berry LOVES to cuddle and is the dog who wants to wrapped up in the blankets with you. He is not a fan of this cold and would probably love his very own doggy coat too. Berry is fully potty trained, knows sit, kennel, and various other basic commands! You: *opens car door* Berry: ...you son of my mother I'm in.

Story
Shark is the happiest Little (sic) bully mix we've ever met. He was raised by Dachshunds, in wheel chairs, and loves is best pal, Cheddar, in one of the pics. He has since discovered other breeds, similar in size and temperament, who love to play as much as he does. His favorite game is "keep-away" or "tug-o-war" with ropes and toys. Never comes in clean, as he gets rolled a lot, on purpose. He just LOVES to wrestle, no matter rain or shine!

Story
Rosie is loving and loyal. She is motivated by treats and making her person happy and is trainable. Rosie is house trained, crate trained. She doesn’t mind her crate and can also be trusted in the house when you’re away. Rosie can walk on a leash but can also pull when she sees something. We are asking that her adopter have a fenced yard for her to safely do zoomies. Rosie can demonstrate bad manners when greeting and may be too much for kids under 10. She has lived in a house with 3 older children (10+) her whole life with no issues. Rosie loves people and has never been aggressive to any human - family or strangers (just sometimes over excitable, jumps, etc) Rosie does not like other dogs and can be dominant. Rosie will need a home where she is the only dog. Despite being adopted at the same time, she and her “sister” dog can no longer live together because they frequently scuffle and Rosie has some scars to show. She has been well cared and has no lingering issues.

Story
Meet Cash, the 83-pound hunk of staffie mix – a living testament to the saying, "Big dogs, big hearts, bigger appetites." Cash is a master of basic commands, but occasionally practices selective hearing. The way to Cash’s attention is through his stomach - which makes the staff feel he is highly trainable. On walks, Cash is a sniffing Sherlock Holmes, investigating everything thoroughly, so it may be a zigzagging adventure until he has a chance for more training. And when it comes to wildlife, Cash's high prey drive transforms him into a canine Indiana Jones in Raiders of the Backyard Squirrel, so a good harness leash is recommended. Cash's quirks are balanced by moments of pure zen. Imagine quiet evenings with Cash, the cuddle aficionado, offering generous kisses and turning your downtime into the best part of the day.Stubborn at times, sure, but Cash's charm lies in his personality. He's not just a dog; he's a comedic companion, adding laughter and love to every day. Ready for a treat-filled, adventure-packed life? Adopt Cash – because life's better with an 83-pound bundle of joy.  For more information, visit https://townandcountryhumanesociety.org/ Thanks to our amazing Angel Sponsors, our long term pups now come with reduced adoption fees, alleviating financial road blocks for some, and making it even easier to open your heart and home to a furry friend. The adoption fee is $100 plus tax and covers age appropriate vaccines, a microchip, and a spay/neuter.  Applications are typically worked in time stamp order based on date/time of submission.  If you have other dogs in your home, they must all meet the potential adoptee.  It may save you a trip to bring them with you when you visit, if you are certain you want to adopt a new family member.   Please be sure to follow us on Facebook to learn more about Town and Country Humane Society and our mission. ##1344047##

There were some complications due to a breech puppy and Ember ended up being rushed to the vet for an emergency c-section for the delivery of her last two pups. Her breech baby didn’t make it but the remaining nine babies are thriving under her care! The suggested adoption fee for Cyrus is $365.

Story
Duncan is a 4 year old, male, Boxer mix. He came to us after being rescued from a house fire where he lost his family (owner and two other dog siblings). He stayed loyal to his owner during the fire and was rescued laying next to his owner. He is a very very sweet boy. Unlike a typical boxer he is a mellow personality. When he gets excited he likes to talk and batt his arm at you and he loves to chase tennis balls. He seems to like to find small spaces like corners to feel safe. We expect this is because he was raised in a smaller home. -Duncan would do best in a home with another dog for companionship or with a retired person who will include him in lots of stuff and give him lots of love. He seeks out cuddles! -He does great with our 4 kids, 3 other dogs, and our bird. We have not had him around any cats. - Fenced yard he can run around in and lounge in. -He has had 2 ACL surgeries a few years ago. He came to us over weight but is now at a healthy weight.

Story
Adopt this gal and you'll get to enjoy Paradise every day! Her journey has definitely not been an easy one but that just makes her enjoy life even more! Paradise was found very pregnant wandering an unfamiliar town. Unfortunately, none of her pups survived. This poor Mama found herself without her family, without her babies and heartworm positive. Thankfully, some kind people and Dolly's stepped up to give her love, comfort, and heartworm treatment. Today, Paradise is a happy lady who loves to be around her people. She is house and kennel-trained so mark that off the to-do list! She also LOVES playing fetch with any toy she can find. She also enjoys a good stuffy but they don't last long with her chompers. Paradise is a good girl, she seems to know what are toys and what aren't leaving shoes alone and also listening well to redirection when needed. Paradise does get along with most other dogs, but she prefers not to share her toys. We'd love for her to be the center of someone's universe, but if you have another furbaby, it's important that Paradise meets them. She likes to be in charge so a more laid-back pup would be the best fit. At the end of the day, she loved to cuddle on the couch(or your lap!). Paradise really is a gem! If you're willing to give her lots of love and pets, she'll happily reward you with big kisses! Can you give this sweet gal the happily ever after she deserves? Paradise is a Boxer/Black Lab mix (our best estimate of breeds) who was was born approximately 8-6-19 and weighs 65 lbs. She is spayed, vaccinated, microchipped, given flea/tick preventative, dewormed, provided life-saving heartworm treatment and started on heartworm prevention. Adoption fee is $400 to help offset the many expenses we have for vetting costs. We rely strictly on adoption fees and donations to continue to save the lives of orphaned & abandoned pets; 100% goes towards their care.
