My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

my brothers and I were dumped out in the neighborhood when we were four months old. We ran together as a pack for several months until I broke my leg. That slowed us down. We saw a lady in her driveway and walked towards her. She got out a big bag of treats and fed us until they were gone. Then she laid out a trail of cheese, which I eagerly followed into a crate. I found myself trapped! My brothers and I were a bit relieved to finally be cared for once again. I am the biggest of the three at 75 pounds and I have thick soft fur. I am a very laid-back, easy-going guy. I will chase the ball a couple times, but then I prefer to roll around in the dirt and lay on my raised dog bed with my little brother. Our leader brother was already adopted. Foster mom says I need a home that has a fence, I am too smart, and how to dodge people when I don’t want to get caught. I would be fine as an only dog, and would also enjoy another young, playful dog to buddy around with. I love to play with shoelaces when they are on feet, hold onto pants legs with my front teeth as FosterMom walks around, and I love to carry stuff animals around the house and take them outside with me. I am looking for an easy-going home that isn’t too chaotic, and will give me lots of love and attention. I am about as easy as they come and my house. manners are great! I rarely bark, but I love to howl when the sirens go by. My best friend here at the foster home is Phoebe who is also posted on this site. We have a good time together and understand each other well. If you’re looking for a dog that won’t drag you all over the place or expect you to walk them miles each day, I am your guy!

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

We welcome all adopters, all experience of ownership levels, all ages above 21 years old for primary adopters, but most of all....everyone who has love to give and a home to share! There is a required adoption application so that we can make sure this is a good match for both the humans and the dog, and upon adoption approval, there is a contract. The adoption fee covers the pet's animal shelter release fee, vet check, spay or neuter, shots, heartworm test, vet records, leash, collar and transport. The fee slightly varies depending on vet needs for each individual
