Story
Marley is a good boy.He knows sit and sometimes paw for treats. I’m moving to another state and just can’t take him with me. He has had the parvo vaccine from the breeder but not sure on any other vaccines. He would do best with a fenced yard cause he is full of energy and loves to run.

Story
Wolfie is a sociable, energetic boy who loves people and enjoys meeting other dogs, though he can be intimidating at first and may need a confident introduction before he settles in. He’s eager to play and he has a playful streak with water hoses that never fails to bring a smile. He weighs 89 pounds and is approximately 3-4 years old.??Wolfie is still learning the leash. He is learning to come when called and sits nicely when prompted. He is a homebody at heart, but he still needs plenty of exercise to burn off his occasional bursts of energy. He also enjoys walks with his humans.??Located in Houston, Texas. Transport to most states available for an additional fee of $300.

Story
CURRENTLY LOCATED IN HAGERSTOWN, MD Meet Bowser! Bowser is a handsome 1–2 year old mixed-breed boy weighing about 40 pounds, making him a great medium-sized companion. We suspect he might have a little Fox Terrier, Akita, Staffordshire Terrier, Rat Terrier, or Bulldog in his mix—but honestly, Bowser is his own unique recipe of fun, affection, and personality! This young guy has a nice balance of playful energy and relaxed companionship. He enjoys a good romp outside, but he’s just as happy resting nearby with the people he loves. Bowser’s Personality • Loves ball toss, yard time, and walks • Enjoys dog toys and especially a good tug-of-war game with a rope or octopus toy • Happy to relax on his own, but also loves placing his head on your lap for a cozy nap • Friendly and playful with a generally easygoing nature Activity Level • Average for a young male dog • Enjoys playing and roaming in the yard • Does not chew household items like shoes or remotes • A great mix of playtime energy and downtime relaxation Training & Home Skills • Leash walking: Average – walks nicely with a harness and doesn’t pull, though he does like to lead the way • Housetraining: About 90% house trained • Crate training: Very challenging but working on it – Bowser tends to bark a lot in a crate and would likely do best in a home where crating isn’t necessary Behavior with Other Animals • Cats: Curious and will bark at and chase cats; Has not shown attempts to harm them • Other Dogs: Good overall and enjoys playtime; May occasionally show dominant behavior around special treats or bones, especially when multiple dogs are present The Basics • Male • 1–2 years old • Neutered • About 40 lbs • Medium-sized mixed breed Bowser would thrive in a home that can give him regular playtime, yard adventures, and plenty of companionship. He’s the kind of dog who will happily join you for a walk, chase a ball in the yard, and then settle down beside you for a peaceful nap. If you’re looking for a fun, affectionate young dog with a playful spirit and a sweet snuggle side, Bowser might be your perfect match. If interested in learning more about Bowser, please email us at savingwebsterdogs@gmail.com or complete our adoption application below.

Story
Meet Jackie — a highly social husky-mix puppy who’s pretty sure everyone wants to be her best friend. She’s the epitome of a social butterfly!  Jackie loves going for her morning walk and greets everyone she meets like she’s known them forever.  She looks so confused when anyone ignores her sweet tail wags.  Jackie’s breed results revealed she is 58 percent husky. Her other half is a mix of small percentages of seven other breeds: German shepherd, chow chow, Alaskan malamute, cattle dog, Labrador retriever, pit bull and boxer. As of early May, Jackie is about four months old and weighs 18 pounds. Her breed results predicted her full-grown weight could be anywhere from 40 to 66 lbs, but she is likely to be on the lower end of that range.  Jackie is highly intelligent and has been potty trained since she was 9 weeks old. She has never had an accident in her foster home. She’s very treat motivated and is an expert at “sit” and “down.” After some work in her foster home, Jackie is now fully crate trained and sleeps quietly in her crate throughout the night. No more husky whining before bedtime!  Jackie is super playful and adores other dogs. She would do best in a home with another dog who also loves to play. She also is an active dog who loves her morning walk, so a forever home that regularly walks their dogs is a must. Jackie loves seeing the world, smelling all the new smells and charming all the new people she passes.  Apply today if you can provide sweet and social Jackie the perfect forever home.
