/ Sheltie
Mix

|
|
Adopted
Bailey is a sweet one year old neutered male Corgi mix who is obedience trained and house broken. He is a young dog with a lot of energy so an active household would be the best situation for him. He was trained using clicker training and is very motivated and a smart little dog, but given his young age he needs lots of positive reinforcement or he will forget everything he’s learned. He is also trained on the Gentle leader collar and walks perfectly when the collar is on, otherwise he pulls. He weighs about 25-30 lbs. We would prefer kids over 10 as he is still a bit mouthy.

|
|
Adopted
Benji is a 3 year old neutered male Soft-coated Wheaton terrier. He was
relinquished by his family as he is still very active even though he is
past the puppy stage. We'd love to get a home with breed experience as
terriers are not for everyone. He has shown no signs of aggression at all,
but he is a little head shy about getting the leash clipped on and doesn't
enjoy being patted on the head. We think he will calm down if he can get
adopted by someone who has the time, maybe a work from home or someone with
part time hours.

Charlie, 18 mons Male Rottie
/ Collie
Mix
|
|
|
Adopted
Charlie is a big sweet guy! He is personality plus as he just loves everybody he meets. He is so good-natured, he is everyone's favorite. He is approx. 18 months old and weighs about 80 lbs. He's good with other dogs and very playful with the foster dogs in the household. He walks pretty good on a lead but is certainly young enough that he would benefit greatly from obedience training. He looks to be a Rottweiler mix, so we would love someone with large breed experience (even though he's going to be an easy dog).

/ Collie
Mix

Click on picture to enlarge
|
|
Adopted
Cinnamon came to us from a southern shelter, where she was picked up trotting along the side of the road. She was only 30 lbs. and was heart worm positive. She has been in loving foster homes and is fully recovered from her ordeal and is a nice medium size of 45 lbs. She is as sweet as can be, is good with other dogs and cats and loves kids. She is very gentle and she loved the kids she met at our last event. All she needs is a fenced in yard as she likes her privacy when going to the bathroom. She seems to be about 4 or 5 years old. She has a lot of love to offer. Won't you give her a chance?

Lucky Joe, 1 Year Old Male Golden Retriever
|
|
|
Adopted
“Lucky Joe” is a small Golden Retriever mix, blonde, 1 yr, 20 lbs (but is a skeleton – should weigh at least 45 lbs). He was rescued from an overcrowded VA shelter just before being put to sleep. This emaciated sweetheart was found on a blanket on the side of the road in an area where several other dogs have been dumped. Despite what he’s been through he is sweet, quiet and affectionate. He is good with other dogs and is calm and well behaved. He is good with cats and loves children. His medical tests show that he has malabsorption, due to a pancreatic insufficiency, so he receives enzymes with every meal and is doing well. We would like to place him as an only dog with a stay at home or part time worker and preferably no small children as he's too needy right now to share his mom's attention.

Quincy, 3 months Male Labrador Retriever
Mix
|
|
|
Adopted
This lab mix puppy was rescued from a city pound in the nick of time. He is very loveable, but clueless about how to act. He jumps all over the place, on people and other dogs. He is a bit of a handful, but is very responsive to positive reinforcement training. He learned to sit on command in about five minutes with the use of a clicker and some treats. We prefer dog training experience and a fenced in yard as he will be large. He is crate trained and is well on the way to being house trained as he barks at you when he has to go. He barks at other times, so you have to know which time is for going to the bathroom. :-)

Shelby, 6 yrs old Female Labrador Retriever
Mix
|
Click on picture to enlarge
|
|
Adopted
Shelby is a six year old spayed female black lab who is as sweet and easy going as can be. Here's what her foster mom says about her: Shelby is the easiest Lab I've ever fostered. She is very good with my 2 other Labs & with a little beagle x terrier 35 lb dog that I have. I have 2 cats in the house & she is also good with them. She does try to get one of the cats to play with her, but the cat just ignores her & she gives up. Shelby is healthy now. When she first came into foster care she had kennel cough, which is an airborne virus much like the common cold and usually runs its course in 10-14 days. She has completed a course of antibiotics and is not coughing now. Shelby is 6 years old but is very slender & in good shape. We walk about 4 miles a day & she keeps up just fine. She is good at coming when called. Shelby is very well socialized, likes people & dogs. She likes affection, but is not pushy about it. She will lay down to take a nap when nothing is happening, but is always ready for a walk or play when the opportunity arises. She is not a real "clingy" dog. Is fine napping in another room from me. I have not had her around children, but would not expect any problems. She is gentle and easy going.

Click on picture to enlarge
|
|
Adopted
Hello! My name is Wendy. I am a sweet little girl about a year old. I LOVE to be around people, especially children. My favorite thing to do is cuddle. My owner turned me over to a shelter because he couldn't keep me anymore. I am very skinny right now so I'm glad he gave me the chance to find a better home. I am only about 25 pounds but will probably be no more than 35 pounds when I am full grown. I am on the small side of medium.
I am already spayed, housebroken and up to date on all my shots. It would be the best holiday present to get a new home.
