Come visit me at PAW!Adoption fee: $390Are you a fan of the hideous weasel from Ice Age the movie? Boy am I the gal for you. I'm Sweet Pea and I'm a small gal who is absolutely bonkers. I need to work on my manners with jumping, screaming, and pulling on the leash. It's not a challenge to walk me though, as I am quite small so try as I might, I can't really pull you. I have the potential to be a wonderful companion with some gentle guidance and a firm but fair owner to train me. If I sounds like the right kinda whirlwind of a gal for you then swing by the shelter and visit me!

Come visit me at PAW - Adoption fee $390 - Hey friends, I'm Liam! I am a jumpy, full of life, excitable doggo! I am outgoing and confident one minute and the next I am shaking and tail tucked when I hear loud noises or if I am being confined in a space. I would do best in a home with no small kids because of me being timid with loud noises. I love meeting new people though! I do become jumpy and so excited my whole back end wiggles back and forth. I would love to learn some basic obedience and manners with my new people though! I will need a home without any cats, as I can be a little much for them. Dogs would be okay but I'm a bit much for them too... so we definitely need to meet before going home. I come in strong during meetings with other animals! I am hoping to find my paw-fect family that will love me regardless of my hyper shenanigans and the fact I need to smell EVERYTHING during our walks. I am so excited to meet you I can hardly wait!

Story
Come visit me at PAW - Adoption fee $390 - Hi, I'm Thor! I wasn't dealt with the greatest deck of cards for the start of my life, but I am willing to learn and grow from my experiences to become the best dog I can be. With that being said I will need someone who is dedicated to provide me with a lot of patience, training, and show me what trust and what true love is. I could benefit from confidence building exercises too. Once I have started to gain trust my true colours start to shine! I am a wonderful young companion that enjoys playing with toys and going for walks. I have shown possessiveness over my food and toys and would love to work on this issue with my new owners. I may need a little extra special attention and training but in the right home with the right folks I am destined to do wonderfully. I am hopeful of my future even though my past was hard for me. I am happy to get a second chance at life in an inviting, warm home.

Story
Come visit me at PAW - Adoption fee $390 - Hi friends, I'm Thorr! I am an exuberant, happy-go-likely, energetic dog looking for just the right family to let my personality shine, teach me some manners, and love me until the cows come home! My friends at the shelter do not have any information on my history, so my age is approximately 4, but I may be older or younger. Being at the shelter and getting ready for adoption means I get to go through a temperament test so my buddies here can place me in the best fitting home for me. We have discovered I am quite jumpy, more than happy to meet strangers, extremely excitable, and a very high energy pup! I would be a wonderful companion for the outdoorsy type that enjoys going on walks, hikes, and exploring nature. I have a lot of personality and charisma and cannot wait to be my goofy self in my new home. - Thorr would be okay in a home with children, and other high energy dogs but will need to meet any dogs he will be living with prior to going home. He would not be suitable in a home with cats.

Story
Come visit me at PAW - Adoption fee $390 -Hey friends, I'm Bailey! I am a timid 8 year old German Shepherd mix. I would do well in a quiet environment that will allow me to come out of my shell at my own pace. I value trust and and appreciate a good treat and light scratch to help me come around. I am a lower energy gal at the shelter and haven't shown much interest in toys but I do enjoy a nice walk. I am fully potty trained to go outside so if you work during the day I will hold it in. However, if left alone I am a chewer. I do have separation anxiety so a crate might be a good option for me to ensure I don't ingest something I am not supposed to. I would do best in a home without small children, as I can be anxious around noise and people in my personal bubble. I would do okay in a home with cats, or other low energy dog like me but proper introduction is needed to ensure best friend status. I am a gentle gal so don't like my large size intimidate you. I cannot wait to find my people and go on a car ride home! I love car rides!
