Hi there, I'm Rocket! I've got energy to spare and love to play. I'm friendly and a bit goofy, but that's part of my charm. I love to play with other dogs, but I can play a bit rough and rowdy, so we'll need to meet to make sure we're a good match. I can't wait to find my forever home where I can run, play, and shower my new family with love. I may need a little extra patience and training, but I promise, I'm worth it. Adopt me, and let's make some amazing memories together!

Hello, I'm Ridley. I may be a little shy when we first meet, but give me a moment and my sweet, goofy side will shine. I'm playful and loyal, always ready for a game of fetch or a dip in the water.

Story
**TOP-DOG TRIXIE** Age 7.5mos Phoenix AZ. Trixie was found running around in traffic at our founder's store a few months ago. All attempts were made to find her family....and no one came for her. She has been in a foster home and is doing amazing! Trixie is a 7.5mo old mix of we think Australian Cattle Dog and Siberian Husky. She is now fully vetted, spayed, UTD on shots and microchipped. She is great in the car and has learned the doggie door and is fully potty trained. Trixie is in a foster home with big and small dogs and gets along great! She is great in the car, on a leash, in a crowd, and weighs in at 45lbs. We expect she is fully grown. We are shocked this stunning girl has had no interest. She is such a good, loving, sweet girl. She likes to hang by the pool and play with her toys. Who's looking for a working breed dog to be an awesome travel and hiking buddy? Fill out an application and come meet her!
