Story
Meet Gadget! Much like her Chip and Dale namesake, this girl is a fast learner, smart, curious, sweet, athletic, and adventurous. She attaches strongly to her person: Wants lots of snuggles, will follow you around the house, will stay by your side. However, she has a strong prey drive and gets protective of her person. She should not be in a house with small dogs or cats, and we are recommending adults only house at this time. She has strong herding instincts like a border collie or an Australian kelpie. She a tendency to herd even the humans (see cut off when walking), it’s very strong around other dogs. Both breeds are highly intelligent and require mental stimulation as well as physical exercise. She would do best in a house either as an only dog or with dogs her size or larger, that are confident and calm. She will need training and a confident human handler. She seems to know that potty is for outside and is getting better at using the dog door, though she doesn’t like being separated from her human and prefers to be joined outside until she feels secure in a forever home. She goes into a kennel easily and does not bark or whine once there.she also rides in the car well.

Story
PLEASE NOTE: This dog is courtesy posted for another individual or Rescue. Different policies and fees may apply. Meet Pebbles, a 3-year-old, 35-pound bundle of joy who is absolutely in love with life and her people. From the moment you meet her, her sweet and gentle nature shines through. She takes treats politely, soaks up affection, and has a way of making everyone around her smile. Pebbles is playful and full of personality. She adores toys, bones, chews, and yes—hotdogs are a favorite. One of her happiest places is outside, where she can zoom around and roll in the grass like it’s the best day ever. She brings a perfect mix of fun energy and loving companionship. This girl truly wants to be part of the family. She thrives when she’s included in daily life and close to her humans. While she’s still learning that kennels and closed-off rooms aren’t so bad, she’s actively working on her kennel training and making steady progress. On walks, Pebbles is a dream—she’s good on leash, doesn’t pull, and enjoys strolling alongside you. Pebbles enjoys the company of other dogs, and if you have a dog at home, a dog introduction will be required to make sure everyone gets along. Her compatibility with cats is currently unknown. Pebbles is currently living with her foster family, where she’s showing just how wonderful she can be in a home. She is spayed, up to date on vaccinations, and ready to find the forever family she’s been waiting for.
