Story
Look up "good boy" in the dictionary, and you're sure to find a picture of Randy! This playful pup is a trusty companion while you're working from home. He'll curl up and nap when you're busy, but he'll gladly play a game of tug-o-war with you during your 10-15 minute breaks. He's completely potty trained and is great at knowing which toys he can chew and which can't - this means he won't leave any surprises during any conference calls. During the weekends, he loves to chase tennis balls, go on walks and chew on his plush toys. But don't worry - if you need a calm night in, he'll happily curl up with you on the couch while watching TV. Randy is a curious creature who remains a bit cautious around new people and dogs. But he warms up after a few minutes and is very gentle and friendly. We can see him doing quite well in a house with kids, but he'll be great in any home that will give him the love he deserves. His foster parents have described him as "one of the easiest fosters we've ever had. Help us find his fur-ever home!

Meet Otter! He's an active and energetic dog who loves to play and have fun. Otter's favorite activities include tug of war, showing plush toys who is boss, and spending time with his true love (a kong filled with peanut butter). Otter's fully housebroken, and when he needs to go out, he'll start pacing by the door to let you know. He's well-behaved on a leash and quick to do his business during walks. Otter is truly worth the wait, because he is a loving and playful companion. He will make a great addition to any active household looking for a fun-loving companion.

Story
Sally (FKA Pippen) is a dog with a personality as big as her jowls! Everyone who meets Sally is instantly drawn to her, and she is quite the celebrity at the vet and amongst dog sitters who all rave that she is their favorite dog to watch. At first glance, Sally may seem a bit serious, but she is a bit of a goofball behind all those wrinkles. Sally has numerous upside-down sleeping positions, which, to the delight of humans, results in her giant jowls sagging. She will also greet you when you enter the room with a sneeze of excitement. Sally is typically low-energy but occasionally surprises you with zoomies! Just like people, dogs have complex and multifaceted personalities. Sally loves people but has some requirements about how she engages with them. Sally prefers women over men, and needs an adult-only home. She has some fear-based anxiety (I mean, same) which results in reactivity around dogs and small children. Sally also doesn't enjoy people getting in her face or holding eye contact for long periods (again, not sure I'm writing this bio about Sally or myself). Sally was adopted from ALIVE Rescue about 4.5 years ago as a puppy and has since been in a loving and doting home. Her family's home situation has changed as they've started a family, and unfortunately, Sally needs a new home that she can thrive in. Sally's ideal home is an adult-only, single-dog home with dog-savvy owners. Sally is looking for humans who are calm, patient, and understanding. While Sally has some complexities, she has a lot of love to give. We know the right home is out there for the next chapter of Sally's story.

Story
Hi! My name is Philly. I've been told I am sassy, energetic, playful, goofy, and rambunctious. I don't know what that last one means, but I guess that's all true! My favorite things are indestructible toys (especially giant, durable balls), snacking on filled and frozen bell peppers, and stealing the slip leads from silly unsuspecting humans. I am currently living at Big Barn where there are lots of butterflies to chase, and I love to get the zoomies around the pool house yard. We go for long walks and I like to pick up sticks as I go and make my handlers laugh. Exploring Big Barn on long trail walks is really fun, and I'd do well in a home with an active family and a big yard where I can run around and play fetch with you. I'm told I am a pretty high energy girl, so it's best I am not around young children. As long as there are treats involved, then I am excited to learn! I've heard about this cool training called nosework and agility - I think learning that stuff would be pretty awesome, as sometimes I can get a little bored and I have a lot of energy to burn. I don't like sitting still, being alone, or playing with other dogs (sometimes they just can't keep up!). Get me in the right mood though, and I've been known to roll over for belly rubs and cuddle time. Even though I love the trail walks at Big Barn and I am bonding with the incredible staff, I get a little stressed with shelter life. I need a patient owner who will give me the time, care, and attention to train me-I promise to always try my best and reward my future bestie with plenty of snuggles and playtime. I am sure I'll be adopted soon, after all, who can resist a cute bottom pouty lip? Come meet me at Big Barn today!

Story
Oh my Gourd, if it isn't the cutest little pittie puppy you ever did see! Meet Gourd, our resident baby boy. This little gem came to us from our partners in Texas, and his sweet, playful demeanor has won over all of Big Barn. Dog friendly, fun, and active, Gourd is a dream puppy who gets along great with other dogs. He loves to occupy himself with toys and can keep himself busy all day long with his favorite bones and stuffies. He adores attention and enjoys crawling into your lap for snuggles, as well as being held. This little love bug would do great in an active home that lets him run around and play all day, followed by training exercises and lots of mental and physical enrichment. If you're looking for your new bestie, apply to adopt Gourd today!
