Story
Arlo is a sweet boy with lots of energy. He is super lovable and playful, but he really needs a home with a yard or a very active owner. He is very smart as well. He doesn’t fight with our other dog, but I’ve never seen him in a setting with dogs he doesn’t know. My guess is he’d be playful and friendly.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. A recent conversation with Luna Lovebug, our 2.5 year old pit bull mix. Luna: Mama what is a foster dog? Me: It means you stay with us and we take care of you until we find your forever family. Luna: A forever family sounds great. How do I find one? Me: Well, I tell people what a great pup you are and they apply to meet you. Luna: What makes me a great pup? Me: You really love to snuggle and you are quiet in your kennel and you almost always potty outside. Luna: I do love snuggles and my kennel is a nice safe place. Luna: How can I be an even better dog? Me: You could work on being calm when the kids walk in and not being grouchy with other dogs. Luna: I’m only grouchy every once in a while Me: You’re right and you love almost all dogs but you and Ace are sometimes not friends. Luna: Okay I will try to be friendly all the time. Me: Good, anything else I should tell a family looking for a good dog? Luna: Yes, tell them I love to play and I am pretty sure I am a lap dog and don’t forget that I am adorable. Me: Okay I will. You heard it here. Luna Lovebug is a great dog looking for her forever family. This sweet girl is a 2.5-year-old pit mix. She is full grown at about 40lbs, so is an adorable litle pocket pittie! Luna has a lot of energy and loves to use that energy playing with dogs of all sizes. She would love a doggy friend in her forever home! She also loves people of all ages and just wants to snuggle. Sometimes she forgets she needs to be calm to cuddle, but she is learning how to chill. Luna is kennel trained and mostly housetrained; she has the occasional accident. She does not do well with cats; she thinks they are fun squeaky toys. This sweet girl does really well on a leash and loves car rides. Luna is looking to join an active family where she can get all the attention and love she deserves. If you think Luna could be the Lovebug you’re looking for, apply to meet her today at https://bit.ly/RRAdoptionApplication Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.November 5, 2024, 4:51 pm

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. I am a young guy at just over a year and a half old and about 55 lbs.  Although I am a husky mix, I don't do most of the naughty husky things that the others do.  No fence jumping, digging, or running away. I do like to sing the song of my husky peeps at times, though, so I wouldn't be a great apartment dwelling dog.  I have a genetic deformity in my back legs that makes it so I can’t be too active for too long. Short walks and mental stimulation games are good for me!   I have been staying with a dog trainer for several months to work on my anxiety, socialization with other dogs, manners, and obedience skills. Not to toot my own horn too much, but I’m pretty pretty awesome now. I know many great commands and have really learned how to relax and not be so anxious. I am such a smart boy that is very excited to continue learning with you.  I am fully house trained and great in my crate most of the time. I have pretty good house manners and love to hang out with my people and chew on a bone. I am really good with people, including kids. I do fine with cats and most other dogs.  I like to be the only handsome boy in the house so I would prefer to live with a chill female dog. If you think Inari could be the arctic adonis you've been looking for, apply to meet him today at https://bit.ly/RRAdoptionApplication Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.November 5, 2024, 4:51 pm

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Hi new friends, Amory here!     I'm a nine-year-old lab/pit mix. I may be considered "older", but you'd never know it when meeting me. I love walks around the neighborhood, car rides, and going to new places...all the things! As long as I'm with my people, I'm happy. I also LOVE to snuggle. Movie time is my favorite, and if I can snuggle up next to you and sleep, I’m in heaven!    I’m crate trained, house trained, and I'm a pro with the doggy door. My foster parents say that after a couple of weeks of adjusting, I'll be just fine left out in my new home while my family is away. I just snuggle up on the couch or a dog bed for a nice nap until my people return.     I’m good with other dogs and really love little dogs. I will even play tug with other dogs or run around the yard to play when they want. I'm pretty content doing whatever the other dogs in the house enjoy! Oh, and did I mention that I love kids? I think they're so fun! My foster mom says I'm too interested in cats and should probably live without them, but otherwise, I'm as close to perfect as they come!    As I mentioned, I’m in great health for my age and like other senior dogs, I just need a joint supplement to keep my body in good shape. If you could give a sweet senior girl a nice, cozy place to retire, a few toys and bones, and so much love, please apply to meet me at https://bit.ly/RRAdoptionApplication Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.November 5, 2024, 4:51 pm
