Story
Cody is 8 years old and was rehomed to us in 2019 when he had some aggression issues with another male dog at his previous home. Since being with us, he has shown further aggression toward other males dogs and small children and should therefore live in a home without other male dogs or small kids. Otherwise, Cody is an exceptionally happy and energetic boy. He is very healthy, is addicted to playing fetch (he prefers red rubber balls above all else), and loves to cuddle on couches. His favorite treat is licking your ice cream bowl after you have finished your scoop. He is crate trained and knows a couple standard tricks (sitting and laying down). He picks up on commands quickly and responds well to gestures and treats. He is a shepherd through and through and will try to herd creatures smaller than him. He’s the kind of dog who needs a job!

Story
Hello this is Woodson. I took him in as a puppy and he is now 2 years old. Over the past year he has not gotten along with 2 other dogs of mine and want to find him a good home. He’s a sweet boy when alone. Very kept to himself once the zoomies have passed. He is very hyper (he is only 2) but he has not calmed down for me and I have a new 4 month old baby now. He is potty trained and Kennel trained. Since the baby arrived he has been more in the kennel than loose in the house due to him being so hyper and not furniture trained. I do believe he would be a great single dog. I do not have enough help to manage him and my other dogs with a baby.

"Meet Lainey, a sweet 6-7 month old Border Collie mix (maybe with a hint of Aussie charm!) we really are not sure! 😊 Lainey is a gentle medium-sized pup who's a bit shy at first, but don't let that fool you—give her treats, some doggy friends, and plenty of love, and she’ll blossom into a respectful member of your home! Lainey thrives with a best bud by her side, so we’re looking for a home with another sweet, playful pup to show her the ropes OR a family willing to adopt her and one of her foster siblings! With a little patience, she’ll shine bright and fill your life with joy. Want to give Lainey the love she deserves? 🐾❤️"

Story
PWRESCUE.ORG **PHOENIX METRO AREA ONLY** Meet Guinness – Your New Best Friend is Waiting! Guinness is a gorgeous 7.5-year-old, 75-pound shepherd mix with a heart as big as her paws. After patiently waiting for over a year and a half, she’s still holding out hope that her perfect person is out there—and it just might be you. Surrendered through no fault of her own, Guinness has proven time and again that she’s an absolute sweetheart. Incredibly affectionate and deeply loyal, she’s happiest simply being by your side. Whether it’s soaking up belly rubs, enjoying a leisurely stroll, or curling up nearby, Guinness lives to love and be loved. She’s currently carrying a few extra pounds (more to love!), but she’s eager to get back to her girlish figure—and would love a walking buddy to help her along the way. Daily walks and playtime aren’t just great for her health—they’re her favorite part of the day! Guinness prefers to be the star of the show when it comes to smaller dogs, but with a calm, respectful dog her own size—or larger—she may be open to friendship, given the right introduction. She would thrive in a home where she can be the center of attention and showered with the love she so deserves. A family with older, dog-savvy kids (12+) would be ideal—especially those who appreciate the loyalty and strength of a big-hearted companion. While she’s past her puppy antics, she still has plenty of pep for adventures and affection. After all she’s been through, this amazing girl is simply looking for a soft place to land and a forever family to call her own. Could that be you? Guinness is spayed, microchipped, and up to date on vaccinations.
