Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Hi everyone! My name is Genesis! I was out on an adventure hoping to find my way home or to even find a home that will welcome me in but someone thought it would be best if I was taken somewhere safe and so I was brought to the shelter on 10/28. I didn't have a name so a kind volunteer named me Genesis. I am told it means "beginning". I am looking for a new beginning with a new family, A fresh start in life as I am still pretty young. I must be a pretty s. pecial pup to earn such a name so hopefully I can win your heart and convince you to make me apart of your family. The volunteers describe me as very sweet, cute as can be, energetic and playful. I can also sit for treats pretty nicely so I am a smart little boy if I do say so myself. I am pretty calm despite being in a loud shelter. I am looking for a loving home who will love me, keep me safe and keep me engaged in activities so I will never have to go back to a shelter ever again. A nice fenced in backyard would be ideal for me so I can burn all the energy I have. Maybe take me on adventures like hiking, the beach, anywhere as long as I am with you. Let me be apart of every milestone you experience. You know like moving. Please help me find my way home to you. I will repay you with all the kisses, hugs and snuggles you could ever ask for. I need you now more than ever!

If you are looking for a playful, energetic pup to brighten your day and your life, then Asher is the guy for you! He is in Run 50 and his ID# is 5786 Please keep in mind that puppies are a lot of work, time and patience, make sure you are able to give this special boy the life he richly deserves.
