Story
Took in from someone that needed to get rid of him but my roommates moved out and I just can't give him the time or attention he needs. He is a young dog, guessing between 1-2yrs old. He is very loving, play nibbles but has never bit anyone or any other animals. He does require a lot of attention and training as he is still young. He does have a tendency to jump but that's all. He is leash and crate trained. Not completely house trained yet though. Just looking to find him a really loving home with some space to run.

Story
Gunner is a long-coat German Shepherd from a breeder in Germany. He is 10, and we adopted him when he was 1. While in Germany, he had a few months of Schutzhund training. We haven’t kept up with it recently, but he still recognizes some commands. He is current on all his vaccines and is house- and crate-trained. He is healthy and has no medical issues other than needing to lose some weight. I will provide his medical records. He has never bitten anyone, is not aggressive, and is very playful. He was raised next to my children and cats.

Story
Stubbz would like to give you kisses!  He would like you to take him on an adventure!  Stubzz is ready to go!  Sweet boy Stubbz is a charismatic a Basset Hound / Lab mix with a zest for life - everyone who meets him LOVES him!   He is a perfect fusion of energy and sweetness, ready to charm his way into your heart and home!  This boy adores belly rubs and will roll over for anyone willing to spend some time giving him love. Stubbz is a happy guy, always up for an outing or adventure. Whether it's exploring new trails, visiting a local playground, or playing with his beloved toys, he's an ideal companion. Stubbz and his foster Mom have been working on perfecting his manners with a master trainer.  He has learned to walk nicely on a leash, sit, stay, place, jump in the car, and more.  He is perfectly housetrained. Stubbz is an absolute sweetheart. His strong yet gentle demeanor makes him a delightful cuddle buddy, especially after a fun filled day. He enjoys resting near his foster Mom, but at bedtime will normally walk unescorted into his open crate, fluff his blankets and go to sleep.   If you're looking for a companion who is loving and well behaved, Stubbz is the perfect match. His captivating smile and expressive eyes will surely brighten even the gloomiest of days.  Stubbz is about 3 years old - a perfect age to take home as he has mellowed out of his puppy ways and become a great companion in the home. Stubbz is waiting to bring his unique blend of energy and sweetness into your home. ##1786501##

Story
Echo is a happy hound ready to adventure with you then snuggle up at your feet.  This girl is loving, active, and playful.  She is a great age at almost 3 years - good energy but past puppy craziness.  She is all hound with her big floppy, velvet ears and sniffy nose.  Echo loves being active - going for walks or hike, going to the dog park - any adventure she is ready!  After her adventure she loves to settle down with her people. Hanging out with her family in the living room on her bed, playing with her toys and watching out the front door is where you’ll find her. She is easy going in the home, easy to care for, and easy to love. She has house manners and is fully potty trained. She is a shoe-hound and if you leave them out, she will carefully carry them to her bed.Echo was made for outdoor activities and is very social with people and other dogs who like to play and romp. Her dream is an active family that will take her on sniffing walks, hikes, and on doggy playdates or visits to the dog park on a regular basis. She would love to have a doggie sibling to romp with or regular visits to the park or playdates. If all this sounds fun, Echo is the girl for you. She wants to experience everything the world has to offer with her super sniffy nose! She’s generally easy to walk, but she’ll need some tight control when a *RABBIT!* enters her field of vision. She loves her foster family’s schedule of several walks per day plus regular doggy playdates and visits to the dog park. At home, Echo enjoys sitting on the deck, basking in the sun and watching the world go by - a fenced yard or other secure outdoor area would be ideal for her.   Come meet her at one of our adoption shows and you’ll get to see her in action! PAW will consider placement beyond our local area for Echo. ##2004631##
