Story
She’s the sweetest girl I just need to focus on my life or I’ll never be able to get anywhere. If interested I’d be open to taking her back any time or we can set up a date a year or two from now. I love her so so much I just don’t enjoy the feeling of having a child and that’s what dogs are constantly playing and taking her to the park. It’s just too much for me to do day in and day out and I want to feed her a good diet of raw food but I just can’t afford is she STILL acts like a puppy but can’t handle it for the most part so I know she need mental stimulation that I don’t even give to myself maybe I can find a happy medium but rn I’m a recluse who goes to work and goes home I never do anything for myself that’s enjoyable for me. So spending time with her feels like a job and I hate that. I buy her toys and chews but if I hate doing it I know it’ll never be fun for her. Please if anyone can help co parent I’d appreciate it.

Story
Remy is playful, eager to please, food motivated and very intelligent. He absolutely loves other dogs and has made a lot of canine friends on daily walks. He would do great if he had a canine sibling and a fenced yard to play in. Remy is loyal and wonderful to his family. He loves running after a ball or a stick or frisbee and is learning to bring them back to his person. He also loves his toy collection and will go his basket of toys and pick something out when he is bored! We told you he is smart! He needs a slow introduction with strangers because people he does not know appear to make him nervous. He is crate trained and potty trained, and would make an excellent jogging or hiking companion. He knows basic commands like sit, down, shake, and he knows to wait patiently for his food at mealtimes. He is currently in a home with a kitten and the two of them get along great. If you are interested in this beautiful and active dog, please let us know. Thank you for your interest in Remy (formerly Caramel)!

And with his laid-back attitude and groovy personality, Poochie is sure to be the coolest pooch in the neighborhood. Even the coolest dude like Poochie can suffer greatly from living at shelters.

Story
Nacho and his brother Taco are 50% Australian Cattle dog, 25% Jack Russel and 25% Supermutt! (per Embark DNA test). Notwithstanding their mix, both are moderate energy dogs and very well mannered. Nacho is smart and very alert. He likes TV -no joke. He enjoyed watching the women's soccer finals during the Olympics on his foster dad's lap and barely moved during the game. He knows how to relax!! He would love to go to a home with a fenced yard and another playful dog. He is best buds with one of the foster's other dogs and has met many doggy friends at the adoption events that he loves. Here is what Nacho wanted you to know about himself -well this was before we got the DNA results and did not know he was only 1/2 Aussie!G'day, mate! An Aussie cattle dog here, what they call a 'red heeler' from Down Under, partly my color and part my nature. I am still a youngster and love to play. Crikey! My foster da' says I am smart, alert and eager to learn the tricks of the trade. No worries in the crate and I'm house trained (mostly), do well on a leash, come to the whistle and I chase down and bring in the toys.. Ideally, looking for a person or family with another dog and a fenced in yard so that we have room to run. And, I am fine with the little blokes and sheilas (meaning I really like children too!). Come on down to the adoption day and have a look, stop by and say 'G'day!'.If you would like to say G'day to Nacho please let us know. He would be very pleased to make your acquaintance!

Pepper AB is very affectionate and loves to snuggle. Her foster shares that she enjoys long walks around the neighborhood and walks very nicely on the leash. She rides well in the car and loves to fetch balls in the back yard. She knows sit, down, come and stay, and is eager to learn more commands. She is eager to please, and is very smart. She quickly learned how to get the treats out of the puzzle toy.Pepper loves going for car rides, she enjoys long walks, and meeting new people and dogs. She goes into the crate on her on her own and is getting more comfortable spending longer periods of time in there. She is a sweet girl who LOVES spending time with her people and snuggling. She's is an energetic dog and would likely do best with an active family and perhaps another young pup to play with. We are enjoying our time with Pepper AB, and we hope that she finds a wonderful family who will love her as much as we do! Thank you for your interest in Pepper AB!

Story
Meet the lovely Margo, whose journey began when her mother fell victim to a car accident. Her rescuer provided tender care, bottle-feeding her until she reached independence in eating. However, during this period, Margo encountered Distemper and faced neglect in a hoarding situation with her previous foster family, before finding her way to our rescue. Despite a challenging start, Ms. Margo has exhibited remarkable resilience as a fighter. Building trust with new people may take time, understandable given her past, but once she does, she transforms into a playful, affectionate, and amusing best friend. Margo is characterized by her playful nature, intelligence, responsiveness to food/treats, and friendliness towards dogs. Fully house and crate-trained, she is ready for a family to call her own.
