Available Dogs

This is Goose. He is a 5 year old lovable Labradoodle. He is a dog and kid friendly boy. He was raised with a loving background with kids and a family who loves him very much. He loves all dogs of all sizes and definitely does best with someone who is home with him a lot. He’s never met a cat before. He doesn’t like to be alone, but handles it okay. He’s definitely a house dog and not fit for apartment buildings. He walks very good with a nose lead but is very excitable when he sees other dogs on his walk. 

He has no fear of fireworks or thunderstorms. He hates his face and paws being groomed but he’s been working on it slowly. 

He loves to play keep-away with his soft Frisbee in the back yard. And Chase around his dog friends. 

Goose is a sensitive soul. He doesn’t like yelling and has a hard time with tension in the home. He is also not a fan of car rides but he puts up with them. 

To the family that brings in this best boy, please know he is so loved and giving him up was not an easy option. It was one of the hardest choices his mom has had to make. She hopes he has just as much love with you as he did with her. He deserves the world and she just couldn’t give it to him.

Alphonso is a 4-year-old Rottweiler mix. He is a very friendly dog. He loves people and he gets along with all the dogs he has met so far. He is small for a Rottweiler, and his feet are almost as big as a full-sized Rotti. It is fun to watch him get the zoomies, especially as he didn’t quite grow into his feet, so he
will trip over his very big paws. He doesn’t even seem to notice and gets back up and continues his zoomies….so very cute.
Alphonso is extremely food motived. He will do anything to get treats. Currently he is being fed with a slow feeder as he tries to guzzle it all too quickly. He will counter-surf, so training and keeping food off counters is key. He gets very excited when his people return from being out. Training and of course treats,
are helping him to be calmer when his people arrive home.

He did have a few accidents in his foster home when he first arrived but has since learned outside is the place for that. He is crate trained and loves to rest or play in it with his toys. He loves squeaky toys and balls.

Now on his walks, he will just randomly lay down and won’t move, especially if he sees someone coming towards him. He wants people to notice him; he is so in love with people and wants to befriend everyone. Of course, offer a treat and he will get up and move, because treats are everything. Alphonso doesn’t realize how strong he is. He has the muscular physique of a Rotti, and he is very solid. His play can get a little rough sometimes, so there may be times when play will need to be paused and their focus put somewhere temporarily.
