My story

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

Meet Parker! Parker was brought in through our Humane Investigations Department after unfortunately being found in a crate inside of a dumpster. We don't know much about this boy's past, but we are working with him and getting to know him every day. What we have learned so far is that this smart boy is absolutely goofy, loves pets and cuddles, and is a ball of fun. We've also learned that Parker does not like other dogs or cats, so he needs to be the only animal in his home and should live with kids 13+. Parker's ideal adopters should not live in communal housing and won't be able to take him to dog parks, to help him avoid other doggies and be his best self. Parker is also currently undergoing muzzle training and is doing an incredible job with it! Parker is available as a Foster-to-adopt dog so that his future adopters get the best start with him and have access to our resources. Are you falling in love with Parker yet?

Parker is one of our Extra Loved residents. Although all of our resident animals get plenty of love, many of them come from backgrounds that require them to need a little extra. Extra care. Extra attention. Extra patience. They've certainly been extra loved here! If you have room in your heart and your home to give one of our special animals, check with our Adoption team to learn about our Extra Loved program and if there is any additional support we may be able to offer alongside your adoption.
