Hi there, my name is Margo, and I'm a 6-year-old Lab mix looking for a special kind of home. Life at the shelter is a bit overwhelming for me, and I'm hoping to find a quiet and loving place where I can truly relax. I'm a sensitive girl, and loud noises and busy environments tend to stress me out. What I really crave is a peaceful routine, gentle walks, and lots of cozy cuddles. Like many dogs my age, I could use some dental care. My adopters should be prepared to schedule an appointment with their vet to make sure my teeth are in tip-top shape. If you're looking for a loyal and affectionate companion who will appreciate your patience and understanding, please consider giving me a chance. I promise to repay your kindness with endless love and devotion.

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!

Gabriel is a handsome and energetic German Shepherd mix who's ready to be your new best friend! This affectionate 2-year-old boy loves attention, pets, and snuggles. He's already learned some cool tricks like "sit," "shake," and "high five," and he's eager to learn more with positive reinforcement training.

no dogs or cats

in foster home  

Hi I'm Winnie! I'm a spunky young lady with beautiful speckles and a unique face! I am looking for a home with no other dogs or cats. I love going for walks and really love playing with toys. I love to fetch, play tug, chase and any other games with human friends. I have very good house manners and also enjoy quiet evenings on the couch watching a movie. I don't chew on things that aren't mine and am potty-trained. I'm a smart girl and learn quickly with rewards based training. I am learning some basic skills like sit, stay, down and leave it. And I can high 5! I do have some big feelings about seeing other dogs on-leash and have shown reactivity towards other dogs. But my fosters have been working with me and I am learning to check in with my handler for a treat when I see another dog instead of barking at them. They say I'm doing much better. I have a lot of energy and would love a securely fenced yard to romp and play fetch, but it's not required. I do like meeting new people. I've never met a child so I'm not sure how I feel about them. I am excited to find a forever home where my new family can help me learn and grow into a lovely mature adult dog. If this sounds good to you and you think your home may be the right fit for me then what are you waiting for? This animal is in foster care! Apply to adopt them online!
