"MALIK" (MA-LEEK)* Turns to MUSH when Petted* German shep/cattle dog/malinois mix "PROJECT POOCH "

 

"Project POOCH, quite simply, changes lives. We operate a kennel inside a youth correctional facility and pair currently incarcerated youth with shelter dogs. The youth learn kennel management, positive reinforcement, grooming, and training techniques. The youth learn what it means to be depended on by another living creature and what it means to be trusted and relied upon. And, they learn what unconditional love feels like—sometimes for the first time. Our dogs get trained, loved, and adopted into their forever homes. There is no limit to the amount of time a dog spends in our care, and we are focused on the individual needs of each dog."

"MALIK" AVAILABLE FOR Adoption at "PROJECT POOCH"  

MALIK neutered male German Shep, Cattle Dog, Malinois mix, 3 yrs 60 lbs

Greetings! My name is Malik (Ma-leek) and I’m an appx. 3-year-old German Shepherd, Australian Cattle Dog, and Belgian Malinois Mix. My friends at POOCH call me a melty shepherd as I just love people so much I melt right into them. I love stuffed toys, snacks, and people! 

A shepherd lover’s shepherd: Malik loves his people and feels best when he is with them. He carries his soft toy with him when following his people around. He prefers to be in the same space as you but is working on settling when you’re out of sight.

Affectionately referred to as “melty,’” Malik will turn into mush when you pet him. He leans into your touch and gathers confidence from his people. The youth have been working with him on a variety of skills to help him in the next chapter of life. Malik came to us a bit of an overzealous greeter, jumping up to be able to greet you at face level, but he's learned that he gets more love when those feet stay on the ground. As an eager young dog, Malik could be a bit of a puller to explore the world, so we have worked on his leash manners (including getting the prancy heel that shepherds excel at). Malik can be opinionated toward other dogs on walks but can redirect to his handler and focus past his triggers (other dogs mostly).

He enjoys working with his people and loves cheese. His favorite toys are big, soft toys that he can carry around with him and show off. He plays fetch with them and brings them to you in order to continue the game. Like many of the POOCH dogs before him, he is having a blast learning how to play with the flirt pole as well!

Malik's ideal adopter is someone who is looking for a new partner. He would love a home where he can continue to learn and build a solid relationship with his family. He can be a little nervous about things sometimes, so his new home would need to understand that he only looks tough and is a bit of a big baby in need of comfort.

" JAMES BOND" AVAILABLE FOR Adoption at "PROJECT POOCH"  

"JAMES BOND" neutered male chi mix, 10 mth 11 lb

Special Considerations: Will need continued training, as any adolescent dog does, but particularly to build his confidence Needs: If there is another dog in the home will require a meet & greet with the other dog at our kennel 

I’m a little guy in this big world and am enjoying all that life has to offer me! I enjoy people, some other dogs, and exploring the world. I’m working on my basic cues as well as some life skills to help set me up for success in my forever home! 

Howdy! My name is James and I am your new best friend. My favorite place to be is with you. I will often hang out near my POOCH staff while they’re working, just to be close for spare pets. They often call me a ‘silly little dude’ because of my prancing when I see my friends, and my insistence on belly rubs. You can’t blame a guy for enjoying the best thing in life, a good belly rub. I can be a little vocal, so I am learning how to greet my friends quietly.

I’m learning important life skills including walking on a loose leash and how to sit. I can be a bit of an escape artist, so anyone who adopts me is going to need to pay close attention to my ability to slip through small openings.

I LOVE hanging out with Jackie and we cuddle together on her big bed.

I love to snuggle and enjoy playing with my dog and human friends.

"ZZ TOP" *WAITING too long!*Nice, 42 lb *skinny* Gentleman HOUND* "MCAS"

I'VE  Been waiting too long, and it's not fair.  I was in an off-site program to help vet students, and was a good boy with everything they asked of me,  but now I'm back at the shelter still looking for a good home.  I'm a mellow guy with a big hound voice, so I need a place where that won't bother any neighbors. (seems like people are more cranky than dogs) 

Now I'm tired of living in kennels and not in a home. I'm loosing weight, and am hoping to  find a nice soft spot to land- that elusive forever home. Can you help me find one?

Here's what you need to know about me:

I'd like a relaxed home. I wouldn't say I'm "old"... I've just been around for a while. And that's made me appreciate the finer things in life like naps in the sun, looking out windows, and the special joy when you're able to scratch juuuuust the right spot. I like to take it easy at home - I'm not up for lots of activity.

It's recommended I meet any dogs or kids living in my new home before I'm adopted. I just want to make sure we all get along.

MIKA  #167756 Doberman Pinscher  spayed female 1 yr 1 mth 33 lbs

Breed:  $400

Here's what you need to know about me:

It's recommended I meet any dogs or kids living in my new home before I'm adopted. I just want to make sure we all get along.

My foster {note MIKA is currently at the shelter}knows me better than anyone! Here's what they had to say about me during my time with them:

"Mika greets new people a little reluctantly, but warms up super quickly. She is very, very sweet, LOVES cuddling, and will be very clingy (like all Dobermans) if you let her.

Mika needs someone who will take time to provide structure and boundaries. She doesn't seem to know "how to dog" in a house just yet. She will potty right away when taken outside, but still needs frequent outings (like a puppy) every couple hours to prevent accidents.

She is nervous around quick movements and noises of small children. With a cautious, slow warm up to kids, I think she could do okay.

She walks pretty well on a leash, but is fearful of busy environments. She's getting better every day, but needs someone calm and confident to remind her that everything is okay!

She loves and tries to play with smaller dogs immediately. She is also totally non-reactive to cats, even inquisitive ones!

Mika will need a slow introduction to dogs her size or larger, because she is extremely scared of them at first. It took her 2-3 days of observing my 100lb male Doberman from behind a baby gate until she would greet him without fearful reactions.

Mika is highly trainable! She's super food motivated, eager to please, and learning things very quickly."
