Story
I found Hunter on the street about 3 months ago. I took him to the animal shelter, and he came up for adoption and I adopted him. I would describe Hunter as an adorable and playful boy. He can be shy in new surroundings and places but adjusts quickly. I live in an apartment and didn't realize he is a very active dog, and I would prefer trying to find someone to adopt him who has a house, yard, and even children and other dogs to play with. He loves to be outside and play tug of war with his rope. I can't stress enough about his character being so sweet and playful. Hunter is 1 year 7 months old and weights 44lbs. He walks on the leash fairly well and from my experience when I walk him, he doesn't bark at people or animals that he sees. He does bark when he wants to play. I do have all his shots up to date and can provide his vet records and I did a DNA test on him also to screen for any health issues and found known. I can provide you with that report too.

Story
We adopted Tasha (lab/pit bull mix) in the first months of 2021 when she was just a little puppy. Right away, she settled in to our family of two adults, one other dog and one cat. Tasha has always loved to relax and enjoy life slowly, especially when she has a comfy bed, a human to snuggle, and once in a while a little bite of cheese as a treat. House-training and obedience-training Tasha was a breeze. She walks great on a leash, doesn't bark much and doesn't chew or scratch our furniture. Honestly, she is a little angel. However, when our first child was born in spring 2022, she started to struggle. As our kid has continued to grow, the other two animals have embraced the addition to our family, but Tasha has not. The extra noise and chaos of a toddler is making Tasha very unhappy. After weighing our options, we believe Tasha would be much happier in a new home: particularly, a quiet, comfy, child-free home with plenty of snuggles to share.

Story
I'm Otis and I LOVE to give kisses. I dare you not to fall in love with me. Double-dog dare you. I am absolute perfection. Yes, I may be an only dog home type dog, but man trust me when I say that I am 10 dogs wrapped into one 65lbs dense package of love. Are you looking for a dog to teach new tricks? A dog to do couch snuggles? A companion for walks? Maybe you want a dog that knows no strangers? Are you looking for a dog to play independently while you work or one that will play with you in the yard? Maybe you are in need of a road trip buddy. Do you want a dog that will sit and listen to you all day long, lick up your tears if needed, and/or make it their life mission to make you laugh? Maybe you even want to impress your friends and invite me to attend your dinner party with relatively good manners. Some may look for a dog that already is crate trained. Others may want a bed hog. I can do both. One dog that has all these amazing qualities are hard to find. But lucky you, I meet any and all of those requirements. Yes, I will be a struggle on walks when there are other dog distractions, but the great news is that Freedom Ride Rescue has invested in ME and I attend weekly professional training, which can be transferred to you, my new furever family. Yes, there will be good days and bad days due to my reactivity, but my foster mom has said it has been one of her most rewarding experiences. If there is even a small part of you that is curious to learn more, discuss my reactivity and training process, get general fun feedback about my cute self, or even possibly interested in meeting me, please complete an application with Freedom-ride.org. So you can see how special I am, here are quotes from folks who have spent some time with him.... "It was so much fun having Otis over the weekend! He is playful and sweet and the biggest dork dog I've ever met. His idea of a good time is rolling in piles of dirt and being goofy!" Aunt Linda "Clumsy ball of love, always happy and eager to please" Temp Foster Mom "Happy, loveable goofball! He tried so hard to be good and to fight his crazy silly puppy instincts. The name Otis means wealth and I have a feeling he'll bring a wealth of goodness and joy to any family." Dog walker "Such a cuddle bug! Loves every person he meets. Food motivated to the core = instant trainability. Prime candidate for the Westminister dog show 2022" Temp Foster Mom #2. "Tricks complete with dopey smile" unknown "Part pig. Part adorable. 100% perfection" Foster mom
