CoverGirl has the calmest personality, even though she’s the smallest she doesn’t let that stop her from playing with the big dogs. She’s definitely the most playful out of the litter. She loves to play, run, jump, etc. She’s a very active dog who loves being able to run outside. Her favorite thing to do is shower you with kisses. She loves being able to show how affectionate she is, if you let her she’d probably try to kiss you all day long. She’s the perfect play mate for people and dogs. She likes to be held like a baby. CoverGirl is all back with perk ears and a long tail and short coat. Ready for training and to GLOW into a medium sized adult dog (based on paws and growth so far). *Orange Collar Favorite Color: Blush tones Favorite Toy: Soft Frog Stuffy Favorite Food: Chicken Nuggets FOSTERED IN TEXAS. *Adoption Fee includes fee by van transport to PNW, Midwest or NY-NJ-CT-VA-VT states by pet transport partners.

Story
Hi! My name is Kwame and I am available for adoption.I was brought in by my previous owner on April 4th, 2025 because they were moving and could not take me wtih them. I lived in a home with another small dog for a while and my owners said I did well with them but don`t know if I like dogs my own size. My previous family also stated that I did well with people of all ages, including very small children. They said it was my best quality! I have put on a lot of weight and will need help shedding some pounds in my new home. My new family should be prepared to work with their vet on a plan to help me get healthy! I currently weigh 98lbs and should weigh approximately 70lbs.I am considered a large breed dog.I am a very smart dog! My previous family said I know `sit` and `down`. I am an adaptable dog who loves to go with the flow! I am outgoing and carefree, and I just can`t wait to find my forever home! I am still working on my manners, so I would do best with a family who is willing to work with me and help me become the best dog I can be!

Story
Hi! My name is Robin and I am available for adoption.I was brought in by a good Samaritan on 4/19/25. I am currently out of the shelter and spending my time in a wonderful RASKC Volunteer Foster Home! If you would like to meet with me, please submit a Foster Adoption Interest eForm so my caretakers can schedule a time for us to meet!I weigh 54lbs and am considered a `medium breed` dog.I am an independent dog who likes to do my own thing!I am full of energy and I love to play! I tend to calm down more when the people around me stay calm. I do best when I have lots of exercise and something to keep my mind busy.My caregivers have noticed that I seem to do well with other large dogs. When meeting dogs in a new home, I would do best with a slow introduction.Because of my shy nature, I would do best in a calm, quiet home.I would do best in a home with older children, or no children at all.I will need to find a home where someone will be consistent with me and socialize me so I can have the best companionship with people and other animals. I will require patience because everything is brand new so I will need some TLC while I learn.I am a gentle and loving dog who likes to take things slow. I may get nervous in new situations, so I am looking for a family who understands that I might take some time to warm up. Once I get to know you, I will be a very devoted friend!

Story
Lala is an only dog. She is very energetic, loving, and very playful. She knows simple commands- sit, lay, paw when she likes to listen. She is house trained. She was kettle-trained as a puppy and sometimes will do just fine but for few minutes will be very vocal. Lala is still young- she loves all the attention and wants someone to play with her all the time. She LOVES treats and belly rubs. She likes to go on walks yo explore her surroundings and curious about everything. She likes to meet people but gets overly excited, jumps and wants to be greeted right away(something we have been working on). She likes to protect her loved ones. She has interacted with other dogs. At initial greet she gets loud and wants to connect but requires time to warm up. We would love to find her a forever home that will give her the attention, space to run free and give her all the love.
