Hello everyone, my name is Caramel Corn!  I am a young mixed breed guy who is looking for my forever home! I am a bit on shyer side of things in life, so a quieter home would likely be best for me. I think someone who does not have the typical 9-5 schedule would be even better! I would love to have a person or a few people who are able to spend their days at home with me so that we can create the most wonderful bond and you can really help boost my confidence and help alleviate some of the fears that this big world has brought to me! I truly LOVE snacks and that is one of the many ways to this heart of gold that I have  I am so very sweet with people and do seem to enjoy some play with other dogs but it takes me a bit to warm up and feel that things around me are safe. If you are interested in learning more about me, ask to speak with an adoption counselor today!

I'm Brindle, an 8-month-old Pit Bull mix ready to bring a burst of joy into your life. I'm on the lookout for a loving home where my smarts and affectionate nature can truly shine. I'm no ordinary pup; I'm exceptionally smart and love a good mental challenge. With the right guidance and a pocketful of tasty treats, there's no limit to the tricks and commands I can learn. I'm a young pup who doesn't know what to do with my mouth just yet, and I have a tendency to guard my resources, especially around other dogs. Those are things that will require patience and positive reinforcement long term. For these reasons, the shelter asks children in my new home be age 12-years and up. With a consistent and understanding family, I'm confident we can make great progress together. Let's meet and see if we're destined to be a perfect match. With your guidance and patience, I'm ready to blossom into the loyal and loving family member you've been searching for.

Peanut is here to steal your heart! This handsome 12-year-old terrier may be a little older, but he's got plenty of love left to give. He's a seasoned pro at charming everyone he meets with his shy but sweet demeanor. While he may take a moment to warm up to new faces, once he trusts you, he's a devoted friend for life. He's still getting the hang of bathroom breaks, so occasional accidents may happen. But with patience and a consistent routine, he's sure to improve. Peanut also has a curious nature, especially when it comes to children. While he hasn't lived with kids before, he's been known to playfully bark and dart around them before retreating. With proper introductions and supervision, he could become a great companion for a family with older children. When it comes to visitors, Peanut likes to take his time to assess the situation. He'll let out a few barks to announce their arrival, but once he's reassured that everything's okay, he'll quickly settle down and show off his welcoming side. As for feline friends, Peanut's stance is still undecided. He hasn't had much exposure to cats, so a gradual introduction would be necessary to gauge his compatibility with them. Reach out today to meet this delightful terrier and discover the joy he brings to every moment

Peanut doesn't like hearing the barking of the kennels

https://www.multcopets.org/adoptable/306726


Hi, I'm Aurora! A proud Shepherd with intelligence and loyalty running through my veins! I am a sweet and affectionate girl who loves fun! While I may be a bit selective when it comes to canine companions, I am a friendly girl with people. I have shown some possible leash reactivity in the past, but with the right training and positive reinforcement I know I can continue to improve! Due to these behaviors, introductions to other dogs will need to be slow and supervised. I'm searching for a loving family who understands my unique needs and is committed to helping me become the best version of myself. A quiet and calm environment where I can feel safe and secure would be paw-some, along with plenty of opportunities for one-on-one time with my humans. I dream of long walks, cozy snuggle sessions, and endless love and affection! Due to her strong prey drive and natural instincts, she may view cats as fun play objects, leading to conflicts or stress in a shared living environment. However, with proper training, supervision, and gradual introductions, some Shepherd dogs can learn to coexist peacefully with cats.
