Story

Hi, my name is Hobart and I would love to meet you. I have been at the shelter since Jul 11, 2023. All my friends say that I`m pretty affectionate and if that means I like getting pets and having my paw held, that`s definitely true! When I`m not being a love-bug, I love going on casual walks where I can sniff the breeze and feel the sun on my fur. I can`t wait to add a lot of cuddle time to your routine!

Story

Hi, my name is Commander and I would love to meet you. I have been at the shelter since Mar 23, 2024. I’m all about being close to you—snuggling up or even sharing your pillow, if you’ll let me! I’m a big guy, though, and sometimes I forget just how big I am, so get ready for lots of love. On walks, I like to take my time, sniffing everything and making sure everyone knows I’ve been there. Tug toys are my absolute favorite, and I love a good game!

If you’re looking for an easygoing, loving companion, I’m your guy!

Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Hi, my name is Candy and I would love to meet you. I have been at the shelter since Jun 21, 2024. I love greeting new friends by happily shoving a toy right into their hand or lap—it’s my favorite way to say hello. When I’m not playing, I’m the best cuddle buddy and love snuggling up close. I’m a bit of a goofball too, and I’ll always keep you laughing with my big, silly grin!
