Story
Ever get stressed or anxious when you are inside? But once you get outside&#44 you feel free as a bird and relax and can calm your inner nerves? Well&#44 thats me! Hi&#44 Im handsome and sweet-natured Archie&#44 and I was simply not made for shelter life. Nope&#44 sitting inside a kennel when all I really want is to be out and about with YOU is very frustrating! They call it transition stress. Once Im outside of the shelter&#44 my fears and anxiety simply melt away. Walks make me one of the happiest boys on the planet!<br/><br/>Im young&#44 energetic&#44 friendly&#44 and a confident boy. I met up with another dog in a one-on-one playgroup&#44 and we did great together. I might go in a little too enthusiastic at my first meeting sometimes; but&#44 I was told to chill out by the other pup&#44 and I did exactly that! Im smart&#44 too&#44 see? Im a big tail wagger&#44 and Im a lover of toys and tug. <br/><br/>The shelter thinks Id do best in a home with kids 8 and up. Ive got so much love to give to a family. I just want my chance again&#44 and I wont be able to contain my excitement when you say&#44 Archie&#44 youre coming home!. I cant wait!!<br/><br/>Love from Archie<br/><br/>Featuring photos by Caley Clark Photography

Story
Meet Carlsbad — Your Spirited, Snuggly Sidekick! 🐾 Carlsbad is a young Red Heeler/Pit Bull mix bursting with adorable puppy energy and big charm. He’s curious, playful, cuddly, and always ready to be part of whatever his people are doing. This friendly guy gets along great with dogs, cats, and children. In classic heeler fashion, he may try to herd his friends, but he’s learning quickly and his puppy manners are coming along beautifully. He’s outgrown his mouthy puppy phase and is turning into a polite, eager-to-please companion. Carlsbad already has some impressive “big dog” skills, too — he has free roam of his foster home and reliably uses the doggie door. He absolutely loves having the freedom to pop outside for a sniff, adventure, or zoomie session, so a fenced yard would make him very happy. When he’s not exploring, Carlsbad is a total cuddler who enjoys curling up with his humans and soaking up affection. He’d thrive with a family who enjoys an active, smart, affectionate pup and is ready to keep up with his fun-loving heeler spirit. If you’re looking for a playful adventure buddy who also gives A+ snuggles, Carlsbad is your guy. 💛 ----------------------------------------- If you’re interested in adopting, please apply online at mscrescue.org/adopt.
