Story
Sweet Elsa is around 6 years old but still has the spunk and drive of a puppy. She loves everyone she meets and wants all the love and pets she can get. She is around 6 years old and has lived with kids before and is said to do great with them. We would want all the littles to come to the meet and greet to make sure everyone is comfortable together. She will do best in a home with no cats. She would also do best with a male dog and a dog test will be required to see if the personalities match. She loves to be outside for her walkies and letting her zoomies out in the play yard. She walks well on leash and is super smart! She should never be left unattended while outside as she is known to be an escape artist even while in a fenced in yard. We will prioritize adopters that have experience with this breed or similar breeds as they have different needs than your "average" pup. She is spayed, microchipped, and up to date on vaccines. Interested in adopting?

Story
https://foha.org/pet/kai2024/ Hi, I'm Kai, a one-year-old Shepherd mix with a gentle and loving personality.I may be a bit slow to warm up to people but once I do, I greatly enjoy attention, affection and treats. When we meet, please let me come to you and after a few careful sniffs, I will nuzzle your hand indicating that it's ok to start petting me. Once trust has been established I will happily soak up all of the affection you wish to give me.I have met, and enjoyed playing with, a variety of dogs. A slow and respectful introduction is usually all I need in order to become familiar with another dog. Many times I want to play, but sometimes I just want to walk along with my canine friend and their people. Small animals and birds definitely catch my attention and I feel they are fun to chase. A 5 ft or higher fence would be ideal for me as I am quite athletic and have impressive leaping abilities. Cats are an unknown factor, but given how much other small animals stimulate me, I may be best living without them or at the very least needing a very slow and very careful introduction. I'm ready to find my family! Please come meet me!

Story
****No small children, Dog Experience Required*****This little lady is still figuring out people. She`s very nervous, but also super curious and interested in being around you. She wants to interact with you, but is still figuring out how. When petting her she`s unsure, but then comes back for more if you stop. Very food motivated and enjoys following you around to see what you`re doing.

Story
NEED FOSTER HOME FOR ONE OF THE MIXED PUPPIES FROM KIKKI'S STAR WARS LITTER!! Meet Hera, a loving, energetic companion looking for a foster or forever home. Hera is a charming dog with a heart full of loyalty and affection. She can be shy upon initially meeting someone, but adapts quickly. Once comfortable, her playful spirit and boundless energy shine through. Hera enjoys walks and is currently building confidence on leash. She has been fostered in a multi-animal home and gets along with other dogs very well. She sometimes needs a reminder to give the cats some space. She is potty trained as well as crate trained although she can be anxious when left alone at times. A calm, male companion would be ideal for her. Her foster home is currently working on basic training, including some tricks. She is very smart but can be stubborn. You will need some creativity to keep her engaged while training. Several short sessions as opposed to a long one. If you are looking for a devoted friend who will bring joy and enthusiasm into your life, Hera might be a match. Her lovable personality would ensure her becoming a cherished part of your family!! She is very smart and needs an owner who will engage her brain: obedience, fast cat, agility.  Prefer owners with some previous experience with dogs.  She will be spayed prior to placement.  See more pix and video at https://www.facebook.com/akitarescue.org/Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.November 4, 2024, 12:00 am

Story
Mama Kiki and her 2 week old puppies luckily landed in the shelter as strays.  The shelter contacted rescue, we were lucky to find a temporary foster and then regular foster home for them.  She will be available once her puppies are weaned and she is spayed.  Both foster homes say she is very sweet and food oriented.  She was bone thin when she came to us, probably having been in poor shape before her pregnancy.  Watch her blossom once she is no longer feeding her pups. The oicture of her wwith the white Akita is her meeting and interacting with him, the resident dog at the foster home.See more pix and  video of mom and her pups at https://www.facebook.com/akitarescue.org/  Ashoka and Omega have applications on them.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.November 4, 2024, 12:00 am

Story
Meet Keebler, a 10-month-old Husky mix. He now weighs around 25 pounds, but we expect him to mature to around 40 pounds. He wears a medium-length chocolate, tan, and white coat and peers out at the world through one blue eye and one green eye. This handsome boy gets along great with other dogs, but we are unsure of how he feels about cats. Keebler is an active dog and loves to run around in his kennel. He does great on a leash and will follow you around waiting for pets. Adopt Keebler and let him fill your life with love and joy!

Smokey and Seth are delightful 3-month-old Husky/Cattle Dog brothers. Presently weighing only 10 pounds, they'll mature to between 50 and 60. These pups love playing and having fun. Whether it be with each other or other pups in the yard, they're always ready to romp until they're ready to flop over into a good puppy nap! Of course, then you know what happens! They wake up and start all over again!
