Story
Katanya is in a foster home! Let`s see how she is doing:`I couldn`t get Katanya out of my mind from our Expawdition and since she hasn`t had any successful meets at the shelter, I thought she may need a fresh start at my house. Sooo she`s my new foster.For now, we’re going to work on independence and confidence; she`s got a very secure yard to freely explore, is taking walks in the neighborhood to meet people and dogs, and has a comfy room to herself where she can snuggle and play with her toys.surprisingly, this girl is house trained!walks ok on leash but must be very vigilant as she`s strong when spookedloves to snuggle, bit of a lap doggreat in the bath, hops right in, stays stillgood with other dogs, both male and femaleplays in spray of hose, gets zoomies afterlikes to play fetch, is clumsy at catching but its adorableplays with her toys on her own (self entertained)sensitive to you (I fell and she ran right back to me, nuzzling my face, very sweet)non-destructive, even though she’s youngmostly sleeps through night (does get up 1x to play a little, then back to sleep)She likes to be with her person. Although curious to check things out, she feels safer when you’re close.She does need protection from herself until she calms down and learns that everything isn’t scary and her home is safe. So she’ll need someone that is committed to giving her the patience and consistency for insecure dogs. Definitely a securely fenced yard. Someone strong who can be vigilant on the leash.Besides those temporary things, she really is a cool girl. She’s strikingly beautiful with her lanky gait and goofy paws. She LOVES water and I can see endless days in the summer swimming everywhere. She’s smart, curious about everything, and would make someone a super loyal buddy for daytime adventures and night time snuggies.I think she would do best with meets off site, so I`m happy to arrange at my home.Katanya went on an ExPAWdition! Let`s read all about it:`Katanya - ExpawditionHopped right into car, but because she is an 85 lb nervous Nelly she wants to be in the front so I had to tether her in the back. She was spooked by large trucks going by and anything noisy, so I kept the car calm as we headed for a long walk at Noland.For such a nervous girl she was surprisingly pretty good on the leash! She obvi needs leash training but she doesn’t go nuts…she’s not interested in squirrels whi

Story
Hello there, I`m Charlie! I`m a sweet and friendly guy who loves to make everyone laugh with my goofy antics. Playtime is my favorite, I`m full of energy and always ready for a game of fetch or a good romp around the yard. I`m fiercely loyal and brave, always ready to protect my loved ones. But don`t let that fool you, I`m a big softie at heart, always ready to give and receive love. I do need an experienced handler, someone who can match my energy and help me channel it in the right way. Adopting me means having a loyal, loving, and playful companion who will fill your life with laughter and joy.

Story
Hi there! My name is FeFe, and I’m a 4-year-old German Shepherd looking for my forever home! I’m 82 pounds of black and tan floof. I know I’m a big girl, but my foster mom says there’s just more of me to love! I’m spayed, heartworm negative, and fully vaccinated, so I’m healthy and ready to go home with you! I’m a goofy and loving dog who is always up for a good time. I love to play fetch and chew on bones, and I’m always eager to learn new tricks. I’m very smart and energetic, so I’m looking for someone who can keep up with me! It would be best if you have experience with shepherds or other herding breeds like me. I’m house and crate trained, and my foster mom has been working with me on my leash manners. I get nervous around people and animals that I don’t know, so I’m looking for a home where I can be the only pet. Because I’m so big (and sometimes a little clumsy), I’d do best in a home without small children. I would make a great companion for an active adult or a family with older children. If you’re looking for a loyal and loving companion, I’m your girl! I’m being fostered in Portsmouth, VA and adopters will need to meet me in person prior to adoption. *Must be 21 or older to apply.
