in Foster Home

Waverly is currently in foster care. Here is what his current foster has to say about him! "Waverly is incredibly sweet, lovey, and definitely a velcro dog. He has gained a lot of confidence from being around our resident dogs and I could see him doing really well in a home with another dog or two or perhaps he would prefer to soak up all the attention himself! He is a bit obsessed with our cats but does NOT seem to want to harm them, just isn't good yet at leaving them alone. He would probably do best with someone who can be home with him most of the time. He has a silly side and will occasionally steal socks. He has the cutest butt wiggle you ever saw. He is food-obsessed and should probably have a slow-feeder bowl. He will bark at the mailman and anyone approaching the house but calms down quickly when he realizes someone is here to visit. He gets a little excited around small kids and can be a little mouthy, thinking he could play with them like another dog - he is still learning! He is eager to please and treat motivated. Walks okay on a leash but could use some help refining his skills." If Waverly sounds like he might be a good fit for you, fill out an application today!

I'm Pharaooooooh! I'm a young, bellering boy with a heart of gold and a voice like no other! I'd do best in a home that has space for me to romp, no food laying around (I am food motivated and my excellent sniffer WILL find it!), and is NOT a rental - I'm bound to be a loud and proud boy, and apartment living isn't for me. I'd love a home that can keep me busy with snuffle mats and other scent games, regular exercise, and manners training - I don't quite know boundaries just yet, so I'd do great with patient people to make me the best boy I can be. I'll be a dream once I know the who's and where's - are you willing to teach me to become your best friend? 🐾💖

Animal ID: 310526 spayed female 2 yrs 2 mths 90 lbs

https://www.multcopets.org/adoptable/310526

Hi there, I'm Luna, a two-year-old German Shepherd with a soft heart and a gentle spirit. My past wasn't always easy, but I'm determined to leave it behind and embrace a brighter future. I'm a bit shy at first, but with a little patience and understanding, I blossom into a loyal and loving companion. I'm looking for a calm and quiet home with an adopter who understands my anxieties and is willing to go at my pace. A consistent routine and positive reinforcement are key to helping me build confidence and trust. I'm already making great strides, and with your support, I know I can overcome my fears. I'm a quick learner and eager to please, but I might need a little extra help adjusting to new situations. Once I feel safe and secure, I love to explore the world around me, whether it's a leisurely walk in the park or a cozy cuddle on the couch. I came to the shelter with a skin condition, but thanks to the amazing care I've received, I'm healing well and feeling better every day. My fur is growing back, and my spirit is shining through. If you're a kind and compassionate person who is willing to open your heart and home to a shy girl like me, I promise to repay your love tenfold. I'm Luna, and I'm ready to start my new chapter with you.
