Story
Olivia was adopted from the shelter in February 2022. She turned 2 in December, 2024. At the shelter, she was listed as a Beagle mix and may be a beagle and jack Russell terrier cross. Olivia needs an experienced owner and preferably an owner familiar with Jack Russell/terrier dogs. Olivia needs an owner that can be calm and consistent in her training and in her aggression related to resource guarding behavior. Olivia has had bite incidents, but there have been no bites since November 2023. Olivia is a sweet dog who loves snuggling and attention. She is smart and learns quickly. She rides great in the car. She is calm and content at home during the work day confined to the bedroom with a baby gate up and has never been destructive when left alone. Olivia would thrive with an active owner and adults only household. She is hit or miss with other dogs, but has played well in the past with large dogs and seems to get along well with small male dogs.

Story
Appa (pronounced Papa without the P) needs immediate adoption due to the death of a family member. He has an adoring and quirky personality once he gets to know someone. He is 6 years old and 55-65lbs. When Appa sees other dogs, he usually sniffs around and then just lays down because he is super lazy, but he’s not the biggest fan of human strangers because he is protective of trusted owners, specifically when in the home. He is perfect on walks but when he see squirrels he gets excited. Appa, like all chows, takes a few days to get used to someone and it is best to leave him be and let him approach. Appa is completely house trained and loves being in the car and generally exploring the house. He is fit for apartment life. Appa hates being blow dried but is okay with baths, and he loves getting belly rubs and lots of pets from trusted owners. Otherwise, Appa can be independent and doesn’t always need human attention. Appa also comes with his harness, leash, and a supply of meds!
