Story
Alfredo is around 1 Year and 1 Month, and a perfect ball of puppy energy! He came into our shelter Feburary 18th as a very shy boy and has blossomed into a perfect pup. Alfredo is energetic, affectionate, and a quick study. His coolest trick is his impressive vertical jump, able to clear the height of 5`5` in a second. He is happiest when he`s allowed to cuddle on your lap and fits perfectly into any home who will have no concern with a dog on the couch. As a boy who`s barely over a year the puppy energy is strong with this one! He may need some extra time in the home to understand not everything is a toy and some basic training. However, Alfredo has already shown us how well he does on the leash and can be easily redirected from tasks. Alfredo needs a slow introduction for people and other pups alike, but is quick to love once he knows you!

Story
Meet Loki, my favorite hamburger head on the planet! I actually rescued him about 3.5 years ago because he was having behavioral issues with current owner, mainly aggression towards in tact males(loves female dogs) fast forward to today and he is a completely different dog. Took a bit of work but he is great with 90% of dogs including in tact males especially if they have a good temperament. He looooves the outdoors, going on long hikes, fishing and basically anything where he can move and sniff. I'm looking for someone who is highly active as a person who can accommodate his will and drive to be outside and on adventures. He's also amazing inside and loves to be cuddled or play with his soft plush toys(he tears em up pretty quick lol). Is great on a leash and has many commands under his belt like: -Come -Sit -Down -Stay -Heel -Circle(spin) -Middle heel(between legs) -And obviously shake 🤝 Hundreds of hours have gone into his training so he would be ready for his new family!
