Story
Hi, I'm Mountain and I am looking for a new home. I am a beautiful dog and I know it! I like to sit on your feet or stand in your lap. I got my name because I like to stand on people with all four feet, like a mountain goat. I am dog selective and don't like being greeted by other dogs on leash, but I have lived with and played with other dogs. I love people most of all. I am good with little kids, but do ask that I have a space that's my own where I can go if I need a break. I am housetrained, microchipped, crate trained, and know quite a few commands. Unfortunately, due to some family health issues, I need to find my next family to love. Fee includes several months of flea/tick and heartworm meds as well as any leftover food.

Story
Meet Panini, me! I am a sweet and snuggly girl, who loves to sit on the couch with my people on a rainy day. When it is nice and sunny outside though I love a good play session. When I am not snuggled up on the couch with you, I like to do doggy puzzles, play with my friends, and go on a sniffer. I am a huge foody (suiting right?). Some of my top picks include chicken, bread, peanut butter, pup cups, and cheese. If you are a sandwich and dog kind of person I would love to meet you! I am working on my basic manners, overcoming my fears, and making new friends. I need a slow approach to life to ensure that I can make positive associations. Don't worry, the Training Team can help set us up for success! Because Panin is a nervous gal and initially handling might be difficult for her, we are requiring a fenced-in yard so she can go in and out on her own. A household that is 16+ would be best so Panini can be the baby for as long as she needs! He would thrive in a chill household with a few people as her inner circle. My favorite things: Long lasting chews Enrichment puzzles Zooming in the hallways Sniffs outside Massages and pets (once we are friends) Any food- she is not picky! Cues that I know: Sit, down Touch Retreat! Recall Relaxation I am an All-Star dog! My adoption appointment includes a discussion with our Training Team, and I will go home with my very own no pull-harness and a few enrichment goodies to help get us off to a good start. To learn more about me or to schedule an appointment to meet me, email info@ahconnects.org (please include your name and phone number), and the staff will be happy to help you! I hope to meet you soon! Our dogs and puppies go home spayed/neutered, microchipped, heartworm tested (6 months and over), and up to date on core vaccines, heartworm, flea, and tick preventatives. Their adoption also includes a free-vet exam at one of our participating veterinarians.
