Story
Mila is the perfect name for me. It means “gracious,” “dear,” “miracles” and “affection, across many cultures. I’m smart, a good listener, playful and curious. I’m always glad to see you and it causes my tail to wag with joy. Big fan of toys - balls, squeaky, plush, tug…it’s all good. I know “sit” and “come.” I adore cuddles and belly rubs too. I'm also crate trained. I’m looking for active family that likes walks/runs. Not a big fan of kitties, but a larger sized dog buddy would be great. If you’re looking for a happy, loyal, snuggly companion with a heart full of love, I might be your perfect match. Come meet me — I’m ready to start our happily-ever-after! A team member says, "Mila is the snuggliest queen - always happy to see you and full of love!"

Story
Hi there, I’m Theo. I'm a young pup with floppy ears and a smile that my friends say could power the whole shelter. I’ve still got that fun, bouncy puppy energy ... you know, the kind that makes every day feel like the best day ever. I love to play, run, wiggle and then play some more. Toys? Yes please. Walks? Absolutely. Making new human and dog friends? My specialty. I’m a happy-go-lucky guy who believes life is better when you’re having fun and sharing it with someone you love. When I’m not being a goofball, I’m actually a pretty sweet snuggler. Once I’ve gotten my zoomies out, I’m all about leaning in for pets and soaking up affection. I’m still learning the ropes of grown-up dog life, but I’m eager, curious and ready to learn with someone who’ll guide me along the way. A team member adds, "Theo knows "sit" and will even "stay" when I put a treat down until I say "okay!" When we're walking, if I stop, he automatically “sits." If you’re looking for a joyful, floppy-eared adventure buddy who’ll make you smile every single day, I think we might be the perfect match. Come meet me - I’m ready to be your new best friend!

Meet Bluey –Velvet Headed Explorer!Personality: Blocky Adventure-Seeking GoofballSay hello to Bluey, a handsome Staffordshire Terrier mix who’s as full of heart as he is full of fun! This big boy is big energy and big love all rolled into one. He’s strong and enthusiastic when he first heads out, but once he’s had a chance to stretch those legs and get some zoomies out, he transforms into a total snugglebug who just wants to soak up your affection.Bluey loves to use that big ol’ head and snoot to explore the world — every scent is an adventure waiting to happen! He’d thrive with daily exercise and plenty of time to sniff around. And speaking of his head… it’s not just big — it’s incredibly soft! One pet of his velvety fur and you’ll be hooked. Bluey’s the perfect mix of playful and affectionate, ready to bring joy, laughter, and a few slobbery kisses to his forever home.?? Fun Fact: Bluey’s head is so soft, it’s been described as “therapeutic to pet” — stress relief guaranteed!

Story
Hi! My name is Tom Hardy! My specialties are: Knows SIT! Can SHAKE with both paws! WALKS great on leash! Couch POTATO! Plays FETCH and brings the ball back! PLAYFUL but not rowdy! Understands "go lay down"! Takes treats very GENTLY! Has shown himself to be TIDY and house trained (though every pup needs a little grace adjusting to a new home at first)! Enjoys RIDING in cars! Tom is a little too interested in cats, so a feline-free home is best. Tom Hardy is also a PAWS dog, which means he comes with 1 year of FREE vet care. This sweet boy has so much affection to give and is just waiting for the perfect family to call his own. Will you please give this handsome guy a forever home? A team member adds, " I’ve been reading to Tom Hardy for a while, and he is one of my favorite dogs I’ve met at Animal Humane. He is a perfect dog—sweet, gentle and silly. He is so goofy and lovable."

Story
A bit bashful Boone here. That name comes from French for “good” and “blessing” and “kind”. This whole shelter thing is new to me so I’m a bit timid but warm up quickly. My walkers say I’m a dream on leash and prefer a nice strolling pace. Once I get to know you, I’ll show you my wiggle and sweet, affectionate well-mannered “good boy” self. I may need a short transition period as I learn a new routine, but with just a little patience, my affectionate nature will shine through. I’m ready for a second chance at a forever home where I can show my love and be loved. Please check me out and bring the family and other pups for a “Meet & Greet”. If you’re looking for Mr. Mellow, I’m your guy. A team member shares, "I walked Boone yesterday and what a delightful big boy. His desire for affection made for a great walk. He just soaked up the pets on his chin. The look in his eyes made me realize Boone would easily adapt to a new home with ample affection. Because Boone responds so well to affection I can't imagine he would have a hard time adapting to new surroundings. The way Boone responded to sit and lay down commands, I realized Boone wants to please."

Story
Jango is a sweet, goofy guy looking for a forever home with his new best friend. Could you be the perfect human to take him home? He is a sweet, young, and energetic pup! He loves treats and and knows how to sit on command... and is ready to learn more tricks too. Jango would do best with a dog who allows him to play at his own pace and would love to meet your dog before going home! A team member says, "Jango is a sweet, sweet boy. He adores spending time with human friends and checks in with you frequently for pets and affection, which is nice because this boy has the softest fur! He walks very nicely on a leash, and he knows how to sit. If you're looking for a new BFF, Jango is your guy."
