Story
Meet Bready Freddy! Always ready to go and always ready for snuggles, Freddy would love a home to call his own. He is a great leash walker once he`s done with his bathroom business. If he does tug, he is very easy to correct. Freddy will `sit` politely for treats and take them gently when offered. He is not picky about which treats he likes and will preemptively give you a `sit` to tell you he`s hungry. Freddy likes toys but prefers getting back scratches and pets. He shows appropriate behavior toward other dogs. Freddy also shows strong signs of being house-trained. He is a communicative and snuggly pup who would be great in any family. Come in and meet him today!

Story
Pinky is currently in foster and doing great! Her foster`s report she is house trained, crate trained, does well with the cat in the home and loves belly rubs. Here`s what else they have to say`I think one of my favorite things that Pinky does is smile when I get home from work, afterI`ve been gone all day (my boyfriend was home, or got home much earlier then I) and shegets super excited and starts smiling at me. I also love how I am never lonely at home. Shelikes to follow me literally everywhere, whether that`s cleaning, watching tv, or studying, sheis very curious with everything. Also if you stop giving her bellyrubs she will lay on her backand wiggle side to side until she gets more.She loves showing off her toys as well.`

Story
Kylo is very full of energy and love he definitely needs a yard to run in and a home with space that unfortunately I just can’t accommodate. His zoomies are A LOT LOL! He’s a big time chewer so tough toys are a must. Kylo is very treat and food possessive so best to separate feed and do not take his treats/food away by hand. He’s a good boy just needs someone with patience and the time to work with him after all he’s just a puppy 8 1/2 months old

Name: Delinda Age: approx 3 years Weight: 50 pounds Color: brown/white Breed: Lab/Pittie mix Vaccines: up to date Altered: yes Heartworm Status: negative Energy Level: active House trained: yes Crate trained: yes Dog friendly: can be selective Cat friendly: no Kid friendly: yes, very hyper so little ones may not be best Temperament: sweet, playful, friendly, very willing to please Adoption fee: 275 Notes: was in training for 3 weeks. This beautiful girl was due to euthanized 12 hours before we saved her due to space. She came from Texas which is overloaded with unwanted animals. Luckily she's no longer unwanted. Need a hype girl? Someone who you can't have a bad day around? One who will encourage you? Show you the joy in little things? Someone who will worship the ground you walk? If you said yes to any of these Delinda is for you! We learned some great stuff about this girl. -shes house broken. No chewing and doesn't need to be crated either. -loves lounging on the couch The things that need work -shes hyper. Always excited, she did improve greatly Jordan said. The jumping stopped and she did learn its okay to not always have to be amped up. -crate training...not vocal and goes in crate nicely but uses the bathroom despite if she's only crated temporarily or few a few hours. Thankfully if adopter doesn't have her crated she is house broken and doesn't get into things she shouldn't Her ideal home: An active family with a fenced yard. She likes adventures and shows potential of being a great sporting dog (agility, lure coursing, fly ball, etc) All and all shes a FABULOUS girl. One of my favorites. Delinda is adorable. Full of energy so would enjoy a family that is active. She likes everyone she meets. She walks nicely on a leash. Delinda was used as the dog tester in the shelter. She has done playtime with females and males with success. It takes a little bit for her to feel comfortable as when the dogs crowded her she would growl as she became nervous and uncomfortable. With slower introductions as she seems fearful of new dogs there should be no issues as she played chase with a young female shepherd and a hyper female hound. Delinda rides nicely in the car, she will curl up in the seat and enjoy the ride. Available for adoption anywhere in the US or Canada with transport provided
