Story
Hi! Tikaani is such a loving, low energy malamute who really likes a lot of attention and cuddles. Unfortunately, he does not do well with toddlers or small babies. He does well with older children who know to respect his space when needed. He would do best in a house without another dog. He has never been with a cat, but he has been around cats at the kennel whenever we board him.

Story
Eggs is a sweetie that just wants to cuddle and be a lap dog.. He came to us as a long term foster with the back story of the owner not being able to keep in the apartment complex. But they moved on without looking back. We have kept him for two years with our two existing dogs and think that he'd be best as an only baby. We have struggled to try to make it work because he is such a love bug, but it's not really fair to him, or our other dogs. He has anxiety that we are managing with meds, but does beautifully as a solo. During a moving period, Eggs was the only dog in a stay at home situation and thrived! Needs to be solo or with only 1 other with ample lap access.

Story
Meet Oliver! Oliver was admitted to the shelter in 2019 as an owner surrender. Oliver is a vocal pup that likes to talk and sing. When he's out of his kennel, he enjoys sniffing around and checking out his environment as typical hound mixes do. He likes to be pet and get attention. He does well for photoshoots and enjoys posing pretty! He knows a few commands like sit and paw and would love to learn more! He is a very smart boy. In the shelter environment, he seems to be scared of cats, but has made friends with other dogs through the fence. Due to his temperament and size, Oliver would do best in an adult home or a home with older children. If you're looking for a faithful companion, Oliver may be the one for you.Good with/Lived with:Dogs: Selective.Cats: Selective.Kids: Older 13+Activity Level: MediumWeight: 70-75 lbs.

Story
Buddy is an inquisitive 5-year-old lab/hound mix. He absolutely loves to be outside, nose to the ground, exploring his surroundings. It takes some time for Buddy to get used to a person and he can be a really protective dog when it comes to those he is fond of. Once he gets to know you, Buddy loves to spend time with you. He is content to be around other dogs and loves to take a nap. He has the perfect energy balance of excitement when outside, but calm and quiet inside. Due to his protective nature, Buddy has a couple of biting incidents in his history. He would benefit from a force free trainer and leash training as well. If you think you can provide Buddy with a forever home, please reach out and contact Four Footed Friends at (724) 349-1144 or fourfootedfriends82@gmail.com.

Story
Ross is a loving beagle/hound mix with lots of energy looking for a good home and someone who is compatible with him. He is a very smart dog and has lots of energy, making time outside very important. He loves to run around in the yard and get his energy out. Ross also enjoys sharing his friendly nature with his human companions, and is not afraid to jump up and give you a hug and a kiss. He has had challenges in the past guarding his toys and being a bit aggressive around food. Ross would benefit greatly from a patient and aware owner. He is fine with other dogs as long as toys and food are kept separate. Ultimately, Ross is a happy go lucky guy, and he deserves the best home! How can you not smile looking at that face? Do you think you can provide Ross with a forever home? If so, please reach out and contact Four Footed Friends at (724) 349-1144 or dogmanager@fourfootedfriends.org. You can also visit https://www.fourfootedfriends.org/ for more information on our organization and other pets we have available for adoption. You are also welcome to come visit any of our dogs to see if they might be the right fit! Visits are done by appointment only.

Story
Sasha is a gorgeous 5-year-old Shar-Pei mix with an energetic personality. She loves to run around outside in the yard and can be very friendly when she warms up to someone. It takes her time to trust a human companion and she can be very particular about where she is touched. In her first home, Sasha did well with older children, and would be compatible in a home with kids 12 and up. She tends to be protective about her space and is not friendly with all the dogs Four Footed Friends has seen her interact with. With the proper time and patience Sasha would make a dog owner very lucky and happy. She also knows basic commands like sit, stay, and come. If you think you can provide Sasha with a forever home, please reach out and contact Four Footed Friends at (724) 349-1144 or fourfootedfriends82@gmail.com. You can also visit https://www.fourfootedfriends.org/ for more information on our organization and other pets we have available for adoption. As always, you are welcome to come into our shelter for a visit with any of our dogs to see if they might be the right fit!
