Clint is a very sweet fella and has settled in well with his foster mom. Clint walks a little slow and may stumble because our vet thinks he has some neuro deficits from a past embolism or accident. This prompted his cruel owners to drop him at the shelter, and they got a new puppy and didn’t need Clint anymore. But he gets around more than fine and has no incontinence issues. In fact, he often stays in for an entire working day with no accidents. We think he needs a level home without any stairs to maneuver and maybe some other dog friends. He has been nothing but sweet since we pulled him from the shelter. Could you give Clint a chance?

Jasper is a big hunk of love. In fact, we would like for him to slim down just a bit. We think some former owner really showed love with food. He loves cuddling and being near his foster mom. He really likes things his way and gets a little nervous if doctors and new folks want to manhandle him too much. He’s getting slimmed down and healthy and ready to be the center of someone’s home. Jasper hangs fine with his foster siblings but prefers people and most of all wants to be the boss and your main squeeze.

We call this guy Charlie the Coyote Fighter. He was left outside to his own devices for most of his life and his owners told us that he likes to “run off the coyotes at night.” Adding insult to injury, he was also regularly chased and aggravated by young children in the family so he needs to be in a home with older children or adults. (And no coyotes please!) He loves the indoor pampered life, as we knew he would, and coexists peacefully with several dog siblings and one nine year old human boy. He deserves a good, easy, spoiled existence from here on out. Do you have room for this sweet fella?

Summer is a beautiful “young” golden girl. She likes taking naps on big soft dog beds but she also likes cruising the yard with her foster siblings. Somehow she found her way to a shelter as a stray and we really don’t know how or why. She’s a perfect girl. One of her front legs turns out, a characteristic we see often in bassets, but it does impact her mobility or slow her down.

What a sweet face! Imagine the shelter’s surprise when a truck pulled up to the shelter and a horrible man shoved him out of the truck yelling “get out.” Poor Earl ran into the shelter. He had masses on the side of his face and his bottom and other untreated issues. They were benign masses and now that they are gone. Earl is feeling so much better and is very grateful for all the kindness and attention he is getting. He loves his evening walks and the smell of the neighbor's barbecue. Who wouldn't? Can you give Earl a real home for his golden years? He’s so deserving and it will be so rewarding to watch him learn to trust and blossom.
