Story
I am a fun loving, goofy girl. I'm so happy, I wiggle when I walk! My last person didn't want me anymore and now I crave that special person who will love me as much as I love them. My biggest pleasure in life is to make you happy and laugh. I might look like a stiff wind is hitting me from the side, but it only adds to my silly, quirky personality. I haven't met a person yet that I don't like. In fact, I LOVE everybody. I'm great at cuddles too and I'm so good at being calm and respectful, just give me a few minutes to get over my eagerness to meet you. I work really hard at greeting you with a sit, but sometimes I'm so HAPPY to meet you I might forget my manners and jump, but I quickly stop when you remind me. I'm very good in my crate and I'm house trained. I promise to adore you for the rest of my life. I love playing ball like it is my middle name. Would you like to be my forever person?.

Story
Rose is a combination peaceful, serene with her people and playful young girl especially chasing her Kong Rubber Ball. Soulful eyes just beg you to let me be yours. Chills out after play and takes life easy. She enjoys all kinds of throw toys and is very good about releasing them. Really fun dog with a gentle spirit and loving attitude. A great combination of relatively compact size, super joyful spirit, focused affection and companion, and fun ! Adoption Process Guardianship Application available for download at http://tinyurl.com/MAPSFiles The Adoption process is designed to help best place dogs with homes that are in the best interest of the dogs and their human companions. The adoption process starts with a prescreen review of an Guardian Application. Making decisions about dog placement in adoptive homes is an "art", not a "science", and there will be times when applications will be denied for various reason(s). This is left to the discretion of the MAPS after reviewing relevant information. MAPS reserves the right to make all decisions regarding placement or final disposition of any rescued dog in its care into a foster or adoptive home. There is no guarantee that any applicant(s) requesting to adopt a dog being fostered through MAPS, or posted on MAP's web site, will be granted an adoption. After a successful prescreen, including background checks, the applicant(s) are notified that they can visit the dogs and a time slot is made for the dog and applicant interaction. After the interaction we encourage several days of reflection before adopting a pet to help assure this will be a lifetime commitment of love and quality care for the dog. Next we conduct a home/neighborhood visit to the Guardian Applicant's home. If the home visit proves successful the new mom and/or dad of the dog will sign an Adoption Agreement and share a lifetime of love !

Story
Anna…. She immediately connects with most any person she meets. She enjoys doggy activities but her favorite activity is simply being with you. She loves walks, car rides, rubber ball retrieval or lying near you Anna doesn’t just live she thrives on her/your daily routine. If you have a busy day, that’s OK she will spend her day watching you work. She is smart, food motivated and eager to please. Her personality and intelligence make her a great student. She has most of the basic commands mastered and is already house and crate trained. She is ready for that next big step in her life. Remember Anna is a book with only a sentence or two in each paragraph. She is waiting for you to finish her life’s story with her. Someone will get a great companion who would love to spend her day on your schedule. Anna has all the right ingredients; wouldn’t you like to bake the cake?

Story
***** Armin is a member of our Lonely Hearts Club and his adoption fee has been reduced to $325. *****Why hello there! My name is Armin, and I`m looking for my very own human(s). I`m hoping they are active and adventurous and on the go - just like me! Could that be you? Why don`t you come on down to visit me? I`ve been friendly and wiggly when meeting most people, but sometime I get nervous when meeting someone new. I am quite food motivated so giving me treats usually helps me befriend people easier! I do love to run and play and I would definitely love to do positive reinforcement training with my new family to help me learn good manners. I can get jumpy and over-aroused when something excites me - like grabbing toys and treats - so I need to go to a home without small kids. But I`m super smart and I`ve already learned a bunch of stuff and would love to learn some more - especially if there are treats involved! I would greatly benefit from adopters who are able to wear me out physically and mentally and are willing to work with my energy levels. If I sound like I could be a good fit for you, then come visit my friends in the adoption center! I can`t wait to meet you! Medical History: I appear to be a healthy young adult dog at this time, but it`s always a good idea to get me into a vet soon after adoption so I can meet my new doctor! Weight: 27.6 lbsAdoption Fee: $325 + TaxIf you`d like to meet me, click the `Learn About the Adoption Process` button below to plan a visit to the shelter!

***** Oliver has been with us longer than we would like so he is a member of our Lonely Hearts Club and his adoption fee has been reduced to $200. *****Hi everybody! My name is Oliver but you can call me Oliv-EAR! I mean - just look at how cute I am! I love lots of things - treats, walks, toys, people and other dogs! I would love to find a family who will take me on adventures and if you have another dog-social playful dog to be my pal that would be the icing on the cake! When all the adventuring is done, I make a great snuggle companion and will be happy to curl up with you to watch a holiday movie! I`m still just a big puppy so I`ll need a little more help learning my manners, potty training and crate training but those yummy treats will have me motivated to learn in no time! If you want a sweet and energetic young pup to bring into your life, then I might be the one for you! Also, I am eligible for a GoodPup scholarship! Ask your counselor about training options!

Story
The name Is Bond; Handsome Doggo Bond. And I am as smooth and slick and intriguing as you would imagine. And I’m quite pleased to meet you. I am extremely friendly and personable, and I do just love meeting new friends. I have a smile and a license to love for everyone I meet, but I prefer to live with only my human cohort. Please, no other canines, felines, or little humans, as I value my things, and prefer not to share them. I like my toys shaken, not stirred, ok? I`m a smart boy who is quick to learn, and I`m already potty and crate trained. I`ve also done well with nail trims in the past! If you’d like a loyal, snuggly, sweet housemate, who absolutely adores you and belly rubs, then I urge you come in. On the double (oh seven). Love, BondI`m eligible for a four-week scholarship for an online personalized training program called GoodPup. Please ask my friends in the adoption center how to enroll!
