Story
It`s a-me, Mario! Mario is a quirky 9 year old goofball that is sure to steal your heart (instead of coins). This sweet boy sadly came to our shelter as a stray in March 2019. At his intake exam, we discovered that he was heartworm positive and would require treatment. Mario has been undergoing the `slow kill` method of treatment while learning a lot in our FIDO prison program. He hopes to be heartworm free very soon. Mario is a sweet boy who can be a little shy when meeting new people. He would prefer a calm, quiet home without small children. He gets along well with cats and can be picky about his canine friends (will require a meet and greet). Mario loves to run and play, so a fenced yard is required in order to adopt him.Mario is a member of our FIDO prison program. FIDO dogs are obedience trained and socialized by the prison inmates. The $250 adoption fee covers spay/neuter, vaccinations, de-worming, microchip, and heart worm test (and current with monthly preventative). They are house trained, crate trained, and know their 5 basic commands. If interested in meeting a FIDO dog, please fill out an application online at: inapl.org/adoption-application. Once it`s processed, a member of our team will be contact with you.MarioShepherd mixMaleDOB: 3/29/2014Weight: 45 lbs.Heartworm Positive

If you're looking for a loyal, loving companion with a gentle spirit and a playful heart, Bunny might be the perfect fit. She's waiting for a family who'll give her the love and patience she deserves-and she'll return it all with plenty of snuggles and puppy kisses! **Bunny's Highlights:** - 9 months old, 35 lbs - petite and adorable! - Spayed, vaccinated, and microchipped - Great with other dogs and respectful of older dogs - Good with kids, especially teens - Potty training in progress, does well on a routine - Crate trained, though a bit nervous sometimes - Loves fetch, yard time, and sniffing around - Smart, inquisitive, and ready to learn!

Story
Aren`t I just the prettiest German Shepherd you`ve ever seen? My last owners surrendered me after I lived and loved them for my whole life. So, at 4 years old, I`m on the hunt for a new family who will treat me like the princess I am. I`ve lived with kiddos and with other big dogs so I`m pretty compatible with anyone. Except for cats, I am NOT a cat fan. Hopefully you aren`t either! Now, let`s talk more about my amazing qualities! I love going on walks, I`m great at fetch, and since I`m a German Shepherd I`m super smart which means I LOVE to train. But, I am going to need your help with some things. Like all the other girlies, I have some tummy issues. This means that I will need lifelong management with medication and special food (but not too special, you can still get my favorite blend at your local pet store or Chewy). Now that I`ve laid it all out there, do you think you could give me a chance? My foster mom think`s I`m the best, but don`t take her word for it- find out for yourself!
