**Meet Beckett – A Big, Handsome Boy!**Beckett came into the shelter as a stray, seemingly dumped on a gravel road. Thankfully, some good Samaritans rescued him and brought him to safety.

However, after some time to decompress, his true character began to shine through!This lovable giant has a playful side and absolutely loves to play fetch. Beckett is food-motivated and eager to learn new tricks, proving to be such a good boy! While he may get a bit stressed in new situations, he just needs an owner who is patient and willing to train him.

He loves people and has a friendly personality but can be a bit picky when it comes to his dog friends, so introductions may be necessary to ensure they get along well.While Doc seems okay with dogs, he doesn't do well with young kids or cats, so a calm and quiet home would suit him best.

Rat Terrier Corgi

Female, Adult

Story
Sammy (9 yrs, 13 lbs) is a sweet companion who will thrive in a quiet home with outdoor space and no children. We are moving internationally in June and sadly won't be able to bring her along. Sammy does well with other dogs in the home; she grew up around an older dog, and frequently stays with family who have a dog. Sammy is very smart, trainable, loves to play, and enjoys walks. On a nice day, she likes to spend hours out in the yard. She is currently on daily medication support to manage anxiety, which has helped minimize barking, reactivity to sudden noises, and general stress. On a day-to-day basis she is happy and engaged, but vet visits and stressful situations may require support (e.g. extra anxiety medication). Sammy completed a reward-based behavior modification package with Plucky Paws at our home and did very well. She made a lot of progress in her uneasiness with strangers by using training games and her food guarding was reduced by using enrichment feeding at mealtimes.
