"LOBO"# 400741  Breed: German Shepherd  neutered  male 9 mths 43 lbs
 
Hi there! My name is Lobo, and I am a sweet, young pup who is making up for lost time and learning just how wonderful life can be. I can be a bit fearful and skittish around new people or in unfamiliar places, but once I feel safe, my true personality shines through. 
 
I am the ultimate "Velcro dog"-personal space is a foreign concept to me, and I will find every excuse to sit on your lap, cuddle on the bed, or press my face right against yours. I have plenty of fun, puppy-like energy and love gathering all my favorite toys, but I balance play sessions with plenty of cozy naps.
 
I get along great with other dogs and look to them for confidence when the world feels a little too big or scary; on walks or in new situations, having a brave canine buddy by my side helps me feel safe. When playing outside, I might steal a toy for a quick game of tug before retreating to a shady spot under a tree to watch with a wagging tail. Food is definitely the way to my heart-especially chicken and peanut butter-and I'm just starting to figure out how fun learning basic manners can be. 
 
I am completely house-trained, eager to bond, and looking for a quiet, patient home where I can continue building my confidence and give you all the snuggles in the world! ✨

Meet Mama, a sweet girl with the biggest, brightest smile! Though she arrived as a stray and her past is a bit of a mystery, her future is full of potential. Mama can be a little timid when meeting new friends at first, but give her just a moment to warm up, and her gentle, happy personality shines right through. With her striking black-and-white coat and eager-to-please expression, she's ready to leave her wandering days behind and settle into a loving home that will give her the time, patience, and affection she deserves. If you're looking for a loyal companion whose heart-and tail-will light up once she knows she's safe, Mama is ready to meet you!

"SID" *FOSTER Home* SHEPHERD MIX **available Foster-to-adopt!* "OHS- SALEM"

SID #339709  Looks like: shepherd, Mix neutered male 2 yrs 9 mths 67 lbs available 8/21/26  /26  $50

*Foster home

 

 Hi there friends! My name is Sid, and I am the silliest, sweetest guy you will ever meet. If you're looking for an adventure buddy to fill your life with, I might be the guy for you!

I am a sweet, funny, high energy boy. I can become easily frustrated if my physical and mental exercise needs are not met. I love to go on hikes and walks, maybe we can even try running together? I am very adaptive and while I love to go out and about, I am also fond of a good snooze. Laying with my favorite people on the couch sounds like a great evening to me!

Mental enrichments are also a great way to work me and my brain. I have been described as super smart and eager to learn! I pick up on things very quickly. I looove treats and do my best work with them! A fun way to get my brain working is hiding my treats! I carefully pick apart puzzle toys/ boxes to get to the treats.

I do well in a crate when my family is not home. I cuddle up with my blankets and toys and take a nice snooze until you come back! I even like to take naps on my own and will sometimes put myself to bed. I like to keep my space nice and tidy and have been described as a pleasant house guest!

I have positive history with kids in my previous home. I love to romp around with them. I am very careful to not bump into them and be gentle while playing. I would love to meet any little friends I may be around frequently!

I can get too excited and overwhelmed when seeing other dogs, I will benefit from structure and space from them. Cats are also very exciting to me and I have a habit of chasing after them. In order to set me up for the best success I will need to be the only pet in the home.

Are you ready to take me home? I am part of the Diamond in the Ruff program, which you can learn more about here ! I can't wait to meet you.

Interested in adopting me?

Animals available for adoption in foster homes need a special questionnaire submitted. From there, we will make an initial appointment for a phone consult to discuss their needs, and then schedule a meet and greet. Appointments are set on a first-come first-served basis in the order that we receive the questionnaires.
