Story
Hi, my name is Gigi! I’m an Akita mix about 3 years old. I’m a very sweet girl and love to run, play, and stretch out in the sun. I really enjoy exploring my world through all its fantastic smells. Chasing small animals is always fun, so a fenced-in yard is a must to make sure I don’t get carried away. Slow introductions are best for me, as I can be a little timid with strangers, but once I’ve warmed up to you, I can be your best pal, whether playing outside or hanging around on the couch. If you give me belly rubs, I’ll be your friend forever! My foster brother and I have a great time playing with each other, and I get along with other dogs once I get to know them. I’m looking for a loving, patient family that can help me grow and build my confidence by gently introducing me to new environments and experiences. Can you be my forever home? *** We have no idea why she’s been waiting so long. She is obviously gorgeous and sweet! She is a careful girl but loves her people fiercely! She is more nervous around new men, but warms up fine as she looooooves her foster dad so much. She is an active girl and loves to run and play with other dogs. In fact, she tends to do best with other dogs around because they help her feel more confident and secure. This pretty girl needs nothing but a little patience and love. If interested in meeting Gigi, fill out an application today! https://www.jotform.us/form/43196636952162Thank you for your interest in adopting a pet from Guardians of the Green Mile Inc. We are a group of individuals that have come together to save the lives of animals that are in danger of being euthanized. We raise funds to fully vet the animals and to provide them with a stable home until they are adopted. All of the dogs in our Rescue are in Foster homes while they are looking for their forever family. The only time we put a dog in boarding is for a Foster to go on vacation if another Foster is not able to care for them. We appreciate your taking the time to fill out the application to adopt one of our Guardians of the Green Mile pets. The questions that we ask are to only find the right fit for all of our dogs and the families that will be adopting them. Adoption donation is $300.00 for dogs over 1 year old and $350 with a $50.00 spay / neuter deposit for puppies/dogs under 1 year old.

Story
Thor is really playful and has lots of energy. He's fun and loving. He loves to go on walks and explore everything. Unfortunately he has bad separation anxiety and needs someone that will be with him and I work nights so when I leave he will bark and howl the whole night. He needs attention and someone willing to be patient with him because he has a lot of energy. He would be happy in a big backyard, ideally fenced because he can jump high and akitas are really good at escaping. All in all he needs a loving family that will give him his forever home.

Story
Meet Brody! He's got the best ears and is an excited, fun-loving guy! He is about ten months old, is neutered, and is one smart cookie! If you need a jogging partner, this dude is perfect for you! We could see him being thrilled to get to log those miles with you. Brody has being a good boy covered. He knows how to sit and he takes treats so nicely. He is SO motivated to learn! The perfect student! We are teaching him how to walk politely on a leash as he is about 55-pounds so nice leash-walking skills are great to have! If you have another welcoming dog, Brody could be such a fun fur-bro to them. He has loved playing with other energetic shelter pups. He loves high speeds and playing chase! If your cat is dog-savvy, Brody had some great play-bows once he got used to them! There are so many awesome things that we love so much about Brody. He is affectionate, interactive, loving, and so handsome. We'd love to find an adopter who will continue to teach Brody lots of good-boy manners because he is smart enough to learn whatever you teach! He's a treat-motivated pup which is great! Come to MHS and meet him!

Story
Meet Rocky James! Look at those eyes! They are icy blue and are even more piercing in person! This guy is a total goofball. He's got long, lanky legs with paws that flop all over. If you have a tennis ball, you are his absolute best friend. Rocky James would love it so much if he found an active family to adopt him. He is an energetic boy, as most two-year-old totally pawsome huskies are, so he'd be thrilled if whoever adopted him had the same personality! The nose on this guy is that of a professional sniffer! If Rocky James catches a whiff of a tasty snack, this guy is right by your side asking for a nibble! We would love to find an adopter for Rocky James who is familiar with huskies and can give this good boy lots of happy memories, like hiking, snuggling, car rides, beach walks, endless tennis balls, etc., as he is so deserving of them! He is about 55-pounds (is a little underweight) and he is neutered. Rocky James is accustomed to living with a female dog in the home. We are still monitoring his interactions with other shelter dogs as well as kitties! Don't miss the chance to add this pup to your home!

Story
This husky girl has stolen all of our hearts immediately! We don't know if it is Myla Jean's gorgeous amber eyes, her fluffier-than-any-other-fluffy tail, or how darling her personality is, but we adore her. She is a polite lady and takes a couple of minutes to get to know you but the best thing about Myla Jean is that you can start to see her silly personality shine quickly. We have learned that her treat preference is anything that has to do with cheese. She loves it! Myla Jean will sit and will take treats gently if you ask her to do so. We love being around her so much. She's just a doll. We think she'd love to find a family who understands huskies so she can thrive, thrive, thrive! We think she'd love to go for daily adventures like fun walkies or on a hiking sniffari so she can use that nose! She has lived with another dog friend before and she did great with him! Since we haven't known her too long yet, we are still monitoring her interactions with other shelter dogs. She asks for no kitties! Myla Jean is about 44-pounds, two years old, and is spayed. Come meet this beauty.
