Story
AKC registered. Born in February 2023 in Virginia. Moved to Texas because of the military. He is crate trained. He really considers it his safe place. Will sleep in his crate at night. He is trained to go to his crate when told "go to your house". Also is trained to "go to his place" which is his cushion. He is potty trained. He will not mess in the house. Likes to play fetch. Very chill in the house but very playful outside. When put on a leash he tends to mello out. Doesn't bark very much. Will bark when he really needs to use the restroom. Our work schedule is causing us to leave him alone longer than we would like. We would like to get him the attention that he needs.

Tooda is a very loving and friendly dog. He will be 8 years old in October. He loves to play, give kisses and snuggles. I am looking for a very good home for him. A home that can care for him and give him more attention than I can.

Story
Introducing Jess, a young and playful girl with lots of love to give! Jess is a 1.5 year old girl who is affectionate and loves to play. She loves people, and seems to want to love all the dogs as well, although she would benefit from some socialization with other pups, as well as some extra help with her basic manners. Jess is young and has the energy to match; she's looking for an active home that can give the exercise, play and continued training she needs! Due to Jess's energetic nature, she would do best in a home without cats. Are you ready to take on this playful pup? She'd make a great addition to any home. If you're interested in our sweet Jess, please come by the shelter today or send an email to adoptpetersburg@gmail.com with "Jesse" in the subject line.
