Story
While Mae might look like a giant, she's actually pretty short in stature! She's a hefty girl. Mae is as sweet as can be and loves attention, but she's not fond of sharing her human with other pets. Her ideal home would be a single man or woman that does not have other dogs or small children. She has not been tested with cats, but due to her size, we think she'd be best fit as an only fur-child. While she has not shown any aggression towards children, she is a BIG girl, and would likely be too strong for a small child. If you're interested in a loveable giant, consider Mae today!

Male, Adult
MEXICO, MO
Size
(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)
Details
Good with kids, Good with dogs, Needs experienced adopter, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Drifter was scheduled for euthanasia at a rural shelter because no one would adopt him. He has suffered some past trauma that resulted in fear causing him to belly crawl on the ground and terrified of entering doorways. He has been going to Doggie Day Care and he has come out of his shell. We have learned that drifter plays well with dogs his size. He gets the zoomies and will run around the yard and show off how happy he is. He loves people and he rides great in the car. He is not good with cats or chickens. Drifter requires a patient hone that understands he needs boundaries and guidance.

Story
Our sweet Petey boy is still looking for his forever home. Petey is my favorite of the litter and honestly if the Realtor Gods found me a house and yard big enough, I would make him ours ❤️ Petey loves snuggling under the blankets, grunting, belly rubs, being outside and working on new tricks for treats. Petey is doing well on kennel and house training, the command sit, and is working on the command stay. Petey also has a great memory recall. Petey and our Australian Pyrenees are the best of friends and he is curious about the cats but doesn’t get into their space. He lets the kids carrying him around like a doll and gets excited to hear Zachs voice. Basically, he’s dog, cat, kid, husband, wife, and even office approved! Petey is truly one of a kind in litter #9. This will be the hardest one yet when he finds his forever home. I know there’s someone looking to give this boy the best life yet ❤️❤️❤️ Apply today at audrainhumanesociety.org
