Story
Scout is a very lovable German shepherd pup. He enjoys being outside, belly rubs, and lots of treats. He requires a lot of attention as he has separation anxiety. He would love someone to be home with him for the majority of the day to give him endless belly rubs. He will need to be fed in his kennel as he has slight food aggression. He would also do best in a home with older kids who don’t drop food on the ground, as he will immediately run over to get it as he is a “vacuum.” He loves being called “Scout pout” and loves when you ask him “would you like a Bewwy Wub” Scout is working on kennel training and will give you those big puppy dog eyes and try to hide on you when you need to put him to bed. He is also working on being friendly with other dogs. Most importantly scout has a big heart. It is easy to become his best friend. If you are looking for a lovable forever friend please get to know Scout. This pet is microchipped, spayed/neutered & up to date on vaccinations. The adoption fee is $500.

Story
This big teddy bear is ready to be adopted! Zara is a 3 year old Great Pyrenees and Komondor mixed breed and is one of the sweetest and most affectionate dogs I’ve met! She is a snuggler and will cuddle on you or as close as she can get for as long as you'll let her. She is housetrained and rarely has any accidents in the house. She does very well on the leash. She LOVES car rides! She is great with kids! She lets my kids crawl all over her. She is crate trained but is free to roam the house and is not destructive when left alone. Her previous owner had two cats and says she was great with them as well as other dogs that came over but she would really prefer to be an only pet. Zara is dog selective and will require slow intros to other dogs! She is up to date on vaccines, microchipped, and spayed. Zara’s adoption fee is $400. If you are interested in giving her a forever home, please email adoptions.protectingpaws@gmail.com
