Story
Eros is about 5 years old. We adopted him as a puppy from the Humane Society. He is such a sweet boy, he absolutely loves to play and run and snuggle; however he does have pretty severe dog aggression. Despite this, he is great with cats and with older kids (old enough to understand when he is uncomfortable. Eros would make a wonderful Only Dog for someone. He would be a great hiking or exercising companion because he has endless energy. We love him very much but we feel like we are not able to give him the life he deserves at this point due to the demands of our jobs and raising a toddler. Eros does suffer from allergies and itchy skin and he is currently on Apoquel to help with that. Please contact me if you are interested. He is a wonderful, loving dog who will be a great companion for many years.

Story
I've had Oakley for the last 5 years, and he has been an energetic and loyal companion. He loves to run, go on walks, play tug of war, and explore new outside spaces and trails (on leash). But he also loves a good snooze. He will not be waking you up at 7am for his food bowl as he is content to sleep in! He is a huge snuggler and loves to curl up on the couch or next to you. He is a fierce protector of his humans and loves to watch out the window. He loves belly rubs, neck scratches, and booty scratches. He also loves acrylic chew toys, squeakers, tennis balls, and cheese. At first, Oakley will be timid. He will likely shy away from being petted until he is more comfortable with you. He will take some time to warm up to a new human but once he does, he will want to be with you as much as possible. Oakley is house-trained, crate-trained, &neutered. Knows basic commands (sit, stay, paw, come here, no, etc.) He does not get along with larger dogs, which is why we need to rehome him.

Story
Hey there, I`m Dante! I`m an energetic boy who just LOVES to have fun! I love people, treats, and playing with other dogs. I`ve been in a play group with other pups at the shelter, and I have had so much fun playing with them. I`m also a water dog! I love to roll around in kiddy pools, hop out, roll around in the dirt, then hop back in. I would prefer a home without kitties. I make the staff and volunteers laugh with my antics, and I`d love to make you laugh forever!

Story
Mi hoy minoy. Oh, silly me, allow me to translate for you - I am Doodlebob. If I could just borrow a pencil...I could write down all the things I love about life: tennis balls, peanut butter, humans, learning. I`m an attentive student and can settle my wiggly booty down when it`s time to learn. I already know sit and down, and the humans are currently teaching me heel, come, and speak. I can definitely go zoom zoom when it`s time to play, but my indoor manners are simply divine, and I would make a super solid dog for someone who wants a little of everything. Ask to meet me!

Story
My name is Cashew, and I’m totally nuts about you! And all people! And playing! And other dogs! And cats! Wow, I actually love everything! But I have to say, my most favorite thing is....chairs. I will weasel my way into your chair, sometimes I will sit in your lap for cuddles, other times I’ll just sit behind you. As long as I’m the center of attention, I’m the happiest little fella ever. I’ve been working on sit, down, paw, and I’m believed to be housebroken. I’m so smart that I actually learned how to climb fences, so I do best with supervised yard time. I`m full of beans, so zooming around with other dogs is always great fun, and after a day of play we can sit in a cozy chair together. Let’s get acquainted!

Story
I`m 50 Scent, and I`ve been waiting for you in da club....da friendship club! I`m a solid medium energy kinda guy and VERY attentive to my person. I`ve spent time in a foster home, and my foster family reports I`m housebroken, crate trained, and know sit and paw, and I`ll always whip out the tricks when you offer me a little snack (perhaps from the candy shop) or a squeaky toy! After we spend some time together outside in the sunshine, I`m totally content to sploot on the floor next to you while you get work done, and I`ll be ready for cuddles whenever you are. Da friendship club is VERY tight-knit, and I much prefer people to everything else. I would prefer to be the only pet in the home, pretty please. The only other thing you should know about me is that I CAN climb fences, but I really have no desire to as long as you’re with me, so supervised time outside or leashed walks is perfect for me. Adopting me would be like partying like it`s your birthday EVERY DAY! Mic drop. Let`s meet!
