Story
Meet your new best friend. This sweet and affectionate boy is almost 2 years old with a birthday on September 27. He’s mostly black with brown and tan undertones and loves to cuddle and be close to his people. He has a fun, energetic personality and would do great with an active person or family who can give him lots of playtime and attention. He still needs some basic training but he is eager to learn and very food motivated. He does well with other dogs and loves making new canine friends. We are not sure how he is with cats or other animals, but with the right introduction he may adjust just fine. If you are looking for a loyal and loving companion who will bring energy and affection into your life, he is ready to meet you.

Story
Nyx showed up as a puppy. She is incredibly sweet and loving. She loves belly rubs and to follow people around all day. She is 30 pounds and has the prettiest curly hair. She doesn’t shed. As much as we’d love to keep her, she doesn’t get along with the cat. She’s not mean, just curious. But it gives the cat anxiety. She’s never bit and doesn’t have a mean bone in her body. She needs a loving home and will be a wonderful companion. My Mom is fostering her right now but she’s having trouble keeping up with the needs of a puppy.

Story
Buster was surrendered to me at my job at around 6 months old. He is just over a year old now and ready to find the place he belongs. He’s super friendly and loves playing with other dogs (he goes with me to doggy daycare). Ideally, I believe he would thrived in a house with other dogs or even kids (anyone he can run around with).
