Story
Hi, Im Simba! 🐶 I was born in February of 2020 and I am a loving, playful, protective Jack Russel Terrier-Chihuahua mix. I love being outdoors and enjoy being around other animals, although I can be a bit protective and territorial at times. It’s only for the safety of my mom though! My mom thinks my ideal adopter is someone who has a backyard for me to roam, maybe even land with animals so I can train to be a herd dog because I am so quick! The ideal adopter can also be someone who is elderly as I currently reside with my grandparents and enjoy lounging around and taking naps. I will protect you and your home while being a great companion 😊

Story
We adopted Sheila from the GBHS in May 2024, when she was a skin-and-bones 5-month-old, spayed the previous day. Her eyes melted our hearts, as they continue to do. Our intention was to add her to our family as in indoor dog, but now she's a very healthy 38lb 1-yr-old, solid muscle, and needs much more exercise than we can provide in our late-60s & early 70s. She constantly pulls on a leash, and although she sits on command, the word Stay! barely registers before she leaps up and barks at other dogs, wagging and wanting to play, but still pulling hard on her harness. Our yard is on a steep slope with a 3ft chainlink fence, but Sheila can no longer be trusted to exercise on her own without escaping. Her being chipped helps. We also have an aging 14-year-old dog rescue as well as a rescue cat, both of which grudgingly yield the floor to escape her attempts to play or get attention. Please help us find her a home where she can safely play and run without pulling us into the street!

Hershey is all Jack Russell. He is confident, friendly, playful, full of energy and smart as a whip! At 4 years old, he is healthy and ready-to-go.

Story
Meet Dasher! Dasher is a one-year-old small dog with a big personality! This happy-go-lucky guy is always on the move and ready for his next adventure. True to his name, Dasher is quick on his feet and quite the clever escape artist—he can climb a 4-foot fence or dig under it if left unsupervised. A secure yard or leash walks will be a must for this little Houdini! When he’s not plotting his next great escape, Dasher loves being with his foster siblings and thrives in the company of other dogs. He’s house-trained and full of joy, always spreading smiles wherever he goes. While he’s not a fan of crates, he’s perfectly content hanging out with his people or furry friends. Adoption Fee: $300 Dasher’s adoption fee includes his neuter, parasite prevention, vaccines, and microchip. Think you’re the perfect match for this fun-loving pup? Apply to adopt Dasher at www.fullcirclerescueandsanctuary.com!
