Story
Chubbs is a sweet loving cuddler. He is smart and understands what I am saying to him. He loves to run around in the yard and play fetch. He is crate trained and house trained, has a potty schedule that he does well with but will also let you know if he needs to go. I got Chubbs 7 years ago from Angel's Among Us. They did a DNA test on him and the majority of his breed is American Cocker Spaniel with Labrador, Husky, and Tibetan Terrier. Chubbs is used to having a backyard to run and play in and come and go as he pleases. Un fortunate circumstances have occurred and we no longer have our home and we live in an apartment which hasn't been the best for Chubbs. He needs a family that can spend more time with him.

Story
Ruger is a three and a half old GSD boy who came to us with another male dog from a family that could no longer keep them. His buddy was adopted, but we are still looking for the perfect home for Ruger. He is a sweet boy that is house-trained, crate trained, affectionate and reasonably well-mannered for his age. He is being fostered with dogs and an older child. He  not be placed with small dogs due to an incident in the prior home (we don’t think it was all their fault but we will err on the side of caution.) Ruger loves to play ball.  He is healthy, vaccinated, microchipped, and neutered.  Ruger is rather shy and will do best in a home that can get him socialized with people.  ##1949890##

Story
Avali is such a happy and joyful girl! She can be a couch potato or a hiking partner, she's just happy to do whatever you are doing! She's so grateful for all of the time you spend with her, and she shows it.   She lives with 2 other large dogs and 2 rabbits. She has previously lived with cats. Because of previous trauma, she needs a slow, 5-10 minute introduction to new people and dogs, but will then quickly be their best friend after that! She will do best in a home with no young children.   She is crate trained, house trained, and walks well on a leash!    She has been in foster for over a year now with no interest. She was originally saved from being euthanized in a shelter while she was pregnant. All of her puppies have been adopted and she is still looking for her home.    Please give this sweet girl a chance. Call or text 678-572-3173 or email bucketsoffundogtraining@gmail.com for more information!  ##2039213##

Story
  On Monday Alex is beginning a two week board and train program. The best case scenario is we find him a home to go to at the end of those two weeks. He's predictably doing better at the rescue than he was at the shelter. However, if he goes directly into his new home, he'll maintain more progress from the board and train program than if he goes back to the rescue or goes between fosters. Some basics about Alex: He was found as a stray and at that time had an open gunshot wound. He's been through a lot, but he still somehow trusts and loves all people and dogs. He spent 5 months in the shelter and was adopted and returned.  He's energetic, silly, intelligent, and in general just a lovable goofball. DeSha and I lovingly nicknamed him Noodle because of the way he flops into seemingly impossible positions. Alex is a shepard and is a double merle dog, which can contribute to deficits in hearing and vision. There's no way to know for sure, but his hearing seems fine because he can localize sounds. He also learns new words quickly, which is a factor in how well he responds to training! Regarding his vision, he can track small objects from a distance and is quite agile when exploring river shoals or hiking. All that to say - The effects of his double merle genetics appear to be only that he looks unique. Alex would do best in a home with someone who has experience with a high energy dog. It would also be great for his new family to have experience supporting dogs who have seperation anxiety. His seperation anxiety improved throughout the weeks that he was with me, so he can get better when given the right supports! Keep in mind that Alex will be coming out of an intensive training program, so if a patient person is interested in bringing this sweet boy in, you will have the support of the trainer to facilitate the transition. Alex would also do best in a home with another dog who is on the younger side and/or has high energy. There have been a few homes with senior dogs that haven't been the best fit. There isn't an aggressive bone in Alex's body, he just wants to play! He does well with kids when he's on leash. I predict that off leash he may initiate play that would be a little too much for small children. He'd probably do okay in a home with older children. ##2150230##
