Story
I have two female puppies. They're half german shepherd and half lab retriever. One is very active and the other is very shy. Ive been trying to teach them to not jump up on my legs and so far they never jump up on me, but with other people they might but they're still young so they can easily be trained right now.

Joey possesses characteristics that would make him a wonderful companion. He is devoted, attentive, and vigilant, demonstrating a natural inclination to safeguard his surroundings and those he cares for. While he does not get along with other dogs or cats, he appears to interact well with older children and teenagers who respect his boundaries. If you are considering Joey as a potential pet, we invite you to visit the shelter and spend some time getting to know him. Joey does know how to sit and walks good on the leash. He has a lot of energy to play, and he can jump pretty high which could make him a fun dog to play frisbee with. That is of course he brings it back. Overall, Joey would be a great companion for anyone that can devote the time and love he deserves.

Story
Camo, a Stafford Terrier, was surrendered by his family along with his mother and was kept chained up near a barn. Unfortunately, we are unsure how well this handsome boy was treated. He seems to be okay with older aged kids, but his behavior with younger kids is uncertain. Camo requires a forever home where he can receive the love, care, and training he needs, preferably with a family experienced with his breed or dog training knowledge. Camo does not get along with other dogs, cats, or small animals. If you're interested in Camo, please feel free to contact us with questions regarding him or come visit us during shelters open hours.
