Story
I recused her after she was thrown out of a car with a rope around her neck. She has become famous on social media and the news. I recently got a full time job and now and not home with her all day and she is crated. She has started acting out from being crated all day. I have 2 kids so I am unable to give her the time she needs she when I get home from work. She’s very loving and playful. She is reactive and protective but NOT aggressive. I don’t know how she is with other dogs. She’s fully trained and understands commands.

Story
Queen Whitney is here to take over your couch and your heart! Whitney is queen of many things: zoomies, the yard, her royal subjects (her fan club), and her wubba kong toys. The though she has a band of followers, she hasn't found her own throne to sit upon! Could that be your couch? Will you join her royal family? Whitney hasn't wasted her time at the shelter or in her foster home. She's been working on many of the things a royal pup should know. She is an expert cuddler, knows lots of fun tricks, and has been working on her walking etiquette. She prefers that her subjects greet her with a game of fetch or "touch" instead of a bow. Whitney comes with her own courtier (trainer) to assist her as she settles into her new kingdom. Kirsten, from Wise Dogs Training, has been working with Whitney while she has been in foster to help her prepare to be a queen. Whitney's court is also prepared to support her transition to a new home and is always happy to chat about how wonderful of a ruler she is! Ask to meet Queen Whitney and we will happily arrange a meeting with Her Grace!

Story
Abby is a trooper. This little girl has been through so much in the last year. She had struggled so much when she was in the shelter (if you are part of our social media community, you may recognize her) and we were all so excited for her when she was adopted last Christmas. Unfortunately, her amazing adopter did not know that he was sick at the time and recently passed away. Abby has been grieving the loss of her best friend, but has landed in a loving foster home. We are getting to know who Abby is all over again, and she is showing just how sweet we knew she was. Abby is looking for a low-key home who will remind her just how special she is every day.

Bronx is the definition of a loyal and loving companion. This sweet boy has a knack for melting hearts with his soulful puppy dog eyes and his endearing "resting sad face. Don't let his expression fool you-Bronx is full of love and tenderness, ready to share it with his future family. Bronx shines on his walks, showing perfect leash manners while sporting his harness like a pro. In the car, he's the ultimate gentleman, riding quietly and calmly by your side. At mealtime, he's polite and gentle, taking treats with the utmost care. This well-mannered pup adores people of all ages, including kids, and is a joy to have in the house. However, the kennel environment causes him stress, so Bronx is yearning for a calm and loving home where he can truly relax and thrive. If you're looking for a best friend who is kind, composed, and full of love to give, Bronx is your guy. He's ready to leave the kennel life behind and start a new chapter with a family who will cherish him as much as he will cherish them. Could that be you? Give Bronx the loving home he deserves-he's ready to meet you today!
