General Notes | Want to adopt this dog? Please do not email us. Please fill out the Adoption Application ASAP. Lover, snuggler, and all around playful pup. I'm a 16-months old, lab mix weighing in at 65 lbs! It's hard to say when I'll stop putting on the pounds since my time on the streets before arriving with my foster family left me ravenous. I am fully grown just filling out! Don't let my mix breed deter you as I haven't shown any type of aggression towards people or other animals, exept for when other pouches are encroaching on my food dish. I don't like to share and want to eat in peace. But, can you blame me?! Be patient with me when first meeting as I take a few days (sometimes minutes) to warm up to new things. However, give me a little time and before you know it, I'll be down for all the new adventures you throw at me. So far I've loved learning about car rides, taking hikes, and meeting new puppy and human friends with my foster family. I've even picked up a few new tricks like sit and how to use the treat button finder. Not to mention I'm recently neutered, house trained, kennel trained, and am working to be better on the leash - I just get a little excited when I see other dogs and tend to pull so I can get a closer sniff. When it comes to dog friends, I love to play, wrestle, and chase to my heart's content. But, don't get me wrong - I need my relaxation time, too. I'm happy to lounge, take naps, and would love to be a work-from-home companion. Oh, and did someone say kids? I adore them, big and small. Just keep an eye on the littles as I can lay the kisses on pretty thick. The only thing I'm a little unsure of are my feline friends. I haven't been around them much and still need some time to make up my mind up about them. If there's one last thing I should mention, my foster mom keeps telling me - and others - that I'm the sweetest boy. Which I must admit, I like the sound of that since all I want to do is find my forever family. So, how does it sound - want a new loving and doting family member? I'm your guy.

Thank you! | Adoption Donations | Our adoption donations are $425 for dogs 8 weeks to 1 year, $375 for 1-6 years, $325 for dogs 7-10 years, and $175 for 11+ years of age. Purebred dogs regardless of age are $475. These minimum donations help to defer the costs of initial vet care, food, and supplies while in foster care that currently average over $500 per dog). Meeting Dogs | Foster dogs may have meet & greets by appointment to approved applicants only. To become an approved applicant - please complete the application process. Please know | Available dogs are updated as soon as possible and we do our best to keep it up-to-date, but occasionally dogs shown may become unavailable without notice due to a pending adoption. We encourage you to put in an application even if you don't see your new family member currently, as once you are approved, we can place you on the waiting list for first priority on the selection of the dogs we do bring in. That means you can often meet a dog upon transport arrival and adopt before they even make it to this page! We can not guarantee that a dog you wish to adopt is available by the time your adoption application is submitted, processed, and approved. Your application is good for 90 days from the time of approval for any dog as long as it is a good fit for your family and your lifestyle.
