Story
A gorgeous blue velvet Staffordshire/ Boxer mix with a soft coat, Finnick has lots of love to share. He has lots of energy, loves rolling in the grass and playing fetch. Finnick enjoys hanging out with people outside during playtime. He would enjoy being the only in pet in the home with a fenced yard and would love to be your companion . With an estimated birth date of March 2, 2021 and weighing 58 pounds, Finnick has been vet checked, neutered, is up to date on vaccines, on flea & heartworm prevention. Currently he is on sensitive stomach food. We hope that once he is out of the stresses of the shelter, he might be able to return to regular dog food.

Story
Wyatt is a friendly and playful 4-year-old who loves people, playing ball and treats. He is a very smart and loving boy who knows basic commands and is eager to please. While Wyatt is joyfully exuberant, he does calm easily. The one thing keeping our loveable Wyatt from finding his forever home is his strong prey drive. He is not fond of cats, dogs or other small creatures.. We believe that he would benefit greatly with proper training to curb that instinct. A physical fenced yard is highly recommended. Wyatt has been vet checked, neutered, is up to date on vaccines, flea, tick and heartworm prevention. Adoption fee $135 cash which includes a dog license. Pets are seen by appointment. We ask people to complete an interest form which is online at https://pawshumane.weebly.com/interest-form.html .or email for a fillable form at pawshumanesocietyinc@gmail.com

Story
Archie, a Lab/English Mastiff mix, is looking for his forever home. Archie was surrendered to the shelter after his owner passed away. Sadly for Archie, he now has trust issues and can be slow to warm up to new people, but once he has your trust, he is a friendly and playful companion. Archie loves playing & treats. Because of his size & strength, Archie would do better in a home without young children. Archie requires a patient owner as he will need sufficient time to decompress in his new home. Obedience training is recommended to help establish a strong bond with his new owner. A physical fenced yard is also recommended for running and playing as well as preventing him from getting out. He has a birth date of December 23, 2020, has been vet checked, neutered, is up to date on vaccines, on flea and heartworm prevention. As an adoption special, we ask an adoption fee of $125 cash which includes a dog license. Pets are seen by appointment. We ask people to complete an interest form which is online at https://pawshumane.weebly.com/interest-form.html As it's a Google doc., if you have ipad or iphone, please email us for a fillable form at pawshumanesocietyinc@gmail.com
