Story
Olive came into a shelter down south pregnant and heartworm positive. She was fostered until her babies were born and weaned. Her babies were then transported to a rescue. For whatever reason, Olive didn't get to go with her babies and was taken back to the shelter where she wound up on the EU list. Chewy’s Hope fostered her, and she is a senior girl ready for a quiet retirement. She would do best as an only and with older kids. But whoever adopts her will have a great companion and lovely girl.

Story
Pippa is an Australian shepherd/lab mix. She is approximately eight years old, but she has the energy of 5 or 6. She is a people dog; she is happy to be outdoors with you and loves a ride in the car, but she would rather be inside with you than outside without you. Pippa is great with cats and would be ideal for her to be a companion dog to a person or people who are retired or work from home. She is just as sweet and loving as she looks! She is in great health and has a lot of love to give to the right home.

Salem

Golden Retriever Poodle (Standard)

Story
Salem is a high energy dog with a need for focused attention that she cannot currently receive from our family. She's extremely loving, loyal and would make an excellent running companion. She plays well with other dogs but does not like sharing. The more room she has to explore independence, the better she adapts. We can provide full DNA testing showing her as primarily Golden Retriever, with a secondary emphasis as standard poodle. By some definitions, she may be a 'goldendoodle,' but her void-black coat and golden retriever grace stand out much more distinctly than the accepted definition of that breed. We are looking to rehome her because her energy and excitement is too much for our home with multiple small children. She has been on a Banfield (through PetSmart) wellness plan since she was adopted at 8wks old from a rescue in Denison, TX. Banfield also did her spay. Her Wisdom DNA panel revealed no genetic marker for any health concerns.
