Story
Blu is Energetic and affectionate. He is 2 years old with a birthday of October 1. Our family rescued Blu at 8 weeks old and his breed is unknown but we do know he is a terrier mix. He has been crate trained as well and is allergic to chicken. Unfortunately, due to my current health conditions we are unable to continue to keep Blu in our home as it would be detrimental to my health. We are hoping he can find a home where he will be loved and preferably a home with no small children. He is up to date on all his vaccines and is neutered and microchipped.

Ody is a sweet and loving dog! He absolutely loves to be patted on his sides and receive scratches on his butt. He loves to run around and play with other dogs and has always been very friendly around other people as well! He also loves to be gently petted on his head and has the biggest smile when he’s around others. Unfortunately I no longer have time to take care of him as school and work has caused me to absent more recently.

Story
Hi, I’m Jack and I’m a 7-year-old who’s sweeter than sweet. Have you ever seen a smile as wide as mine? And what about my flair for fashion? From a brightly patterned necktie to a boldly colored neckerchief, I ROCK them both! Happily at home in my foster home, I’m happier than I’ve been in a long time. Easygoing, eager to please, and eager to LOVE, I may not be huge on snuggling, but I am big on kissing. I give my foster parents the best kisses ever. And, the surprise of surprises, I’m good with cats after the proper introductions are made! Brimful of puppylike spirit and spunk, I love, love, love PLAYING. I get along famously with other playful dogs while learning all about boundaries at the same time. I also love going for walks, walking wonderfully on a leash, and taking rides in the car in search of the next great adventure. Currently honing those puppylike manners, such as staying off counters, I know that with practice, I’ll be paws-itively perfect. I also know that I’ll reward you, my future forever family, with a lifetime of loyalty, loving, and … kisses! I am housebroken, not crate-trained, neutered, microchipped, and up to date on all of my shots.

Story
Hi, I’m Apollo! I’m 5 years old and full of fun and energy! I might be on the smaller side, but I’ve still got a little growing to do. I absolutely love running and playing, just like most Huskies, so I’d really love a backyard to call my own—preferably fenced, so I don’t get too distracted and wander off on an adventure! I adore all dogs and humans, but with all this energy, I might be a bit much for the little ones. Sometimes I get so excited that I might accidentally bump into them or play a bit too rough. But don’t worry, I’m eager to learn and improve if someone just gives me a chance. I already know how to sit, catch, and almost stay, and I’m always ready to learn more, especially if there are treats involved! I’m a super quick learner and love to please. I have not been tested with cats. Oh, and guess what? I once jumped into a pool and was surprised at how cool it was—I can swim! I’d love to be your shadow, helping out in the kitchen or just hanging out. Having a friend to play with would be amazing too. Could that be you? I promise I’m a very good boy!

Story
Hi there! My name is Everest, and I'm a 7-month-old Siberian Husky puppy. People say my almond eyes and soft fur match my sweet soul perfectly. As I grow older, I'm becoming more laid back and chill, but don't let that fool you—I still have my wild moments! I'm known for being very vocal, especially when I don't agree with something or when I'm trying to get what I want. My little barks and howls can be pretty persuasive! I'm also a bit clumsy, but I think it just adds to my charm. One of my favorite things to do is relax in my crate. It's my cozy little retreat where I can unwind and feel safe. Whether I'm being my wild self or just lounging around, I'm always ready to fill your days with love and a touch of Husky mischief. The adoption fee is $400, which includes: Microchip Neuter Leash, collar, and HHOFL tag
