Story
Girly-girl! The sweetest little girl, and as cheery as they get! Girly doesn't have a care in the world- like ever. She's got a happy-go-lucky temperament that is suitable for just about ANY home! She is a lover of all things, cats, dogs, people, kids, critters- she's just elated to meet, love on, or getting loving from anything! But her loving definitely comes with a hint of playtime! Whether it's tug, chasing down a ball, squeaking a stuffie, she LOVES it! Not too long into her playtime she winds down into a deep puppy nap. Girly is the perfect character in her wonderful stage of puppyhood, and we reckon she will be JUST as perfect into adulthood- as she will likely be that perfect in between size for a canine companion at her measly 30 pounds at about 10 months old. The size that you can take anywhere, everywhere, or nowhere at all on those cozy nights in- she will definitely not mind if you give her a bone, or even a stick! & she's truly one happy camper! Girly got to spend quite a lot of time in foster before coming to us, so she has her basic puppy skills down, too!

Story
Oh Brennan, the happiest little man in the whole world. Brennan is happy about everything in life, from the moment he's eating breakfast, to the last cuddles before bedtime; he is a bundle of wiggles, and kisses. & under the chin scratches? His love language. Without even mentioning the old fashioned cuddles, snuggles, and butt scratches! Don't get me wrong, Brennan is still very much a lazy puppy whenever he's able; he rests nicely in his kennel, too, after he receives his sweet treats! Sweet Bren adores playing with other dogs from big to small, and has no care in the world, like ever! While he's been with his amazing foster, he has been learning all the basics of leash-walking, crate-training, house-breaking and his simple manners! We know he will mesh well into just about any loving home, due to this. Bren's been thriving in every single way, as he approaches strangers without hesitation for some loving, or chases toys joyfully in the dog run. We cannot get enough of him! At about 6.5 months old, weighing 35 or so pounds; we don't think he will be HUGE, but he's definitely not tiny! Here are some wonderful words from his current foster momma! Brennan is a happy go lucky boy. He loves to wrestle with his K9 foster siblings and chew on bones. His most favorite thing of all is walks! This boy loves to be on a leash exploring the world. Brennan is crate trained but must be rewarded with treats when he goes in. Brennan is still very much a puppy and loves to "explore" so a crate is highly recommended when no one is home. He sleeps on the bed at night with no problems. He does know sit and we are working hard on off and down. Brennan's potty training has gone phenomenal and he will go to the door or start pacing which is the sign he's gotta go. He is a smart boy and is treat motivated so additional training should not be a problem at all. He has no sense of personal space so when he's ready for some loving your lap is fair game! Brennan would love nothing more than to have a forever home with a yard and someone who will take him for long walks. We know Brennans's mom was a purebred Great Dane, & that's the end of what we know about this guys' genetic history!

Story
Xena is one amazing Mal to say the very least! She's been spending her time in a foster where she's learned all of her basics, from crate-training, leash-walking, house-breaking, you name it, she's done it! All at about 10 months old; and a little bit under 50 pounds or so, she's the perfect sized Mal for sports, agility, or as a hardcore companion to back you up anywhere and everywhere! Though in her foster, we've learned she's not great with calves - she does wonderful with adult livestock, other dogs of all sizes, and kids! Xena is particularly high-drive, and adores being on level 10 whenever she can, however, she does have a great off switch as needed, especially when she's mentally and physically fulfilled. Her foster family just adores her, and knows she will make such an incredible dog with someone who knows what these guys are all about! Some great sport/training qualities for her is that she loves treats, is highly prey-oriented, and super handler driven!

Out of all the handsome doggies I've ever met, Buddy Boy has a type A personality. THE BEST, without even mentioning just how stinkin' cute he is! Bussy much prefers spending his days lounging around, and romping the yard with other dogs; and of COURSE plenty of snuggles! Buddy is definitely more of your laid-back love bug type of guy, but don't worry, he will always be ready for an adventure, too! At his perfect age of a little over a year old; is the cherry on top! Buddy adores everything to do with people, whether he's getting walked, talked to, played with, he doesn't care; he's just as excited to be around us no matter what! We know Buddy will do amazingly in just about any home because he really is just a gentle, sweet guy! Weighing in around 50 pounds and having learned all there is to being the perfect house-dog; I can't be any more serious when I say he is perfect!

Story
Frenchie is a doll faced boy, with a yearning to fit into our weird human worlds, fortunately enough for him, he's doing wonderfully. Frenchie is definitely more of the introvert young boy, but it's not to say he's not the most outgoing with another pooch around! He does splendidly with them of all shapes, sizes, he doesn't mind; and he quickly becomes their little shadow. Then sooner or later, he becomes your little shadow, very curious to see what it is you're up to, even when it is absolutely nothing, then he's happy to rest his head in your hand for chin scratches, or in your lap to have his ears rubbed. Frenchie's favorite part of the day, every day, without fail, is when he's let into the lobby to socialize; and while he's super shy at first, treats and sweet talking always break him of his shell, and he's the wiggle butt we all know and love! Frenchie knows his basics, from crate-training, to commands; he's got it down! So we know he will do amazingly in most loving homes, but he will be searching for one that will help him flourish at his pace, but also guide him at the same time. Especially at his perfect size of about 40 pounds, at a little over a year old.

Story
By far, this brown-eyed girl is a DOLL. Possibly one of the cutest to ever exist! Everly is basically a pint-sized puppy dog, and she couldn't be ANY better! Along with her petite size, gorgeous eyes, and the cutest grin; she's a sweetheart, through a through, her favorite thing to do with people are give kisses, cuddle, and snuggle at our feet. She makes for an amazing greeter-pooch as her wiggle butt couldn't get any quicker! Everly weighs about 20 pounds or so, at 8 months old, making her that PERFECT size! She's right at that size where she can join you anywhere, load herself up in the car, cuddle in bed, she doesn't mind! In fact, exploring, cuddling, and then sleeping is her day on repeat. She gets along with everything and everyone! We really can't get enough of her, and her wiggle butt! One of my favorite things about Everly is how she just MELTS as soon as she starts getting loved on, it's beyond adorable. Due to her great manners, known commands, leash walking skills, AND her crate-training/house-breaking, all of these skills making her SO easy to get home, and transition seamlessly into your life!
