Story
"Hi, Im Sounder. Not long ago, I had a family of my own. Im not sure what I did wrong I loved them with all my heart. One day, they packed me into a carrier (much too small, if you ask me) and left me at Summits Sanctuary with nothing but a note. As if words on paper could make being left behind hurt any less. They said Im an active Black Mouth Cur from a busy family with no time except to feed me. Luckily, the kind people at SSAR stepped in, just like I hear they always do, and found me a loving foster home. There, I was able to heal from a bite injury and go through heartworm treatment, surrounded by people who truly cared. I stayed with my foster family for about two months. They gave me more love and care than I ever thought possible. Im now neutered, fully vaccinated, treated for heartworms, and on preventative medicine to keep me healthy. I dont even understand all the things they did for me... I just know I feel better than ever! Right now, Im back at Summits Sanctuary, but what I really want is a forever home. A place to belong. A family who will love me as much as Ill love them. Could that be you? I promise to be your loyal friend and give you all the love in my big, hopeful heart. With love, Sounder" Please visit our website www.summitssanctuary.org to learn more about this amazing pet and to see other available dogs.

Story
"Hiya, my name is Zeus! I am a 1.5 year old German shepherd husky mix. I once had an owner but he reached out to Summits Sanctuary and told them he was moving and if they didnt take me he was taking me to be euthanized. I am still not really sure what I did wrong but my great friends at Summits constantly tell me it was nothing I did, and I am absolutely perfect in every way. I love to play as much as possible and my favorite game to play is fetch. I will play as long as you let me, and I even do the cutest little happy hop when I catch the ball! Along with playing, my other favorite things are snuggles and belly scratches. Ill love just laying in your lap and getting all the love possible. I am the true definition of sunshine and when you look at my sweet face you cant help but smile. I mean, how awesome is life?! As happy as I am at Summit's Sanctuary, I know that them taking me in saved my life and they have plenty of other fur-babies to save just like me! I want to thank them by finding the most perfect family and living the best life I possibly can. I am one in a million and I know my family is out there just waiting for me. I am recently neutered and up to date on all my vet checks. When youre ready to come meet me and fall instantly in love, please bring a ball and we can play fetch too! See ya soon!"
