Story
contact foster parent at lashleydunc11@aol.comIndy is a sweet boy approx 3 years old. He walks nicely on leash with a harness; loves to play with toys - and occasionally will take one on his walks! He’s energetic and playful, but also loves to lay in the grass and chill. Indy is good in the car, smart and trainable- he already knows ‘sit’ and ‘down’ . Indy has been here too long and needs to find his forever home soon!-loves children-housebroken and crate trained-non-destructive-dog friendly*-cat tolerant-great dog for a variety of familiesIndy is really fun dog with a great off button. He loves to get out and play; would in fact make the perfect running companion or even sport dog. However if chilling on the couch all day is more your speed, he is game for that too! He will just expect cuddles; personal space is not in his vocabulary. He thrives off human attention and love! He is a smart boy and has his unique quirks too. He loves long grass and standing on outdoor furniture (he learned that we in fact cannot stand on the inside dining table but foster mom does not care if I stand on the outdoor table, pool box, pool recliner or anything else outside). Really, he is probably part billy goat without the headbutts to your gonads. So if you ever wanted a pet goat but your stinky HOA won`t let you have one......*He loves playing with other dogs! He does have a rough style of play so would need to be with another dog that can match that or be tolerant of that. However he is not a fan of sharing his beloved toys or food. So separate feeding areas and toy times needed.He is learning his cat manners. He seems to want to play but he is a bit too rough to play with a cat; we are working on this.And finally, Indy is absolutely great with children. He is very attentive to their needs; even carefully keeping small ones away from sharp corners and stairs.Indy would do great as a single dog or with neutral doggy siblings. I can absolutely pictures him living it up in a bachelor pad or with a young family. He would honestly be great at both.Last note; Indy has some mad hops. He needs at least a 4.5 ft tall fence if let out in a fenced area.

Story
contact foster parent at ptjzjuers@icloud.comHey there, pals! I`m Emma, the fabulous ten-year-old black lab who`s ready to share her story. Let me tell you, I`m a real gem – sweet, gentle, and an all-around amazing friend.Leash walking? Oh, you bet I`m a pro! I`m like the leash walking superstar, strolling right by your side without any pulling, and I love to check in and make sure we`re in sync. High energy? Nope, not me! I`m all about those relaxed days, lounging on the sofa and enjoying some quality time with my favorite humans.House trained? Absolutely, not a single accident here. But here`s a secret – I`m a bit of an escape artist. I`ve got a knack for finding my way out of things, but hey, it`s all in the name of adventure!Walks? Count me in, but let`s keep them under 30 minutes due to some old injuries. Collars? Well, they`re not my favorite accessory, but I`ll make do. And speaking of walks, I`ve got pretty great leash manners with just a hint of light pulling – I`m just too curious about the world!Prey drive? You betcha! I`ve got a nose for adventure and a keen eye for anything that moves. But when it comes to cats and small animals, let`s just say I`m not the best company. And kiddos under 10? Well, I might be a bit too much for them.Snoring? Oh, that`s my nighttime lullaby! I`ve got the most adorable snores you`ve ever heard. Kennels? I can handle them in small doses, but I`d much rather be with my favorite people.Car rides, you ask? Well, let`s just say I`m not the biggest fan. Grass rolls, though? Oh, those are the best! I`m a grass connoisseur, and I absolutely love to give out kisses too.Now, I`ve got some special medical needs and a unique diet, but don`t worry – I`m a trooper. Thunderstorms and loud noises? Well, they`re not my cup of kibble. I`m a bit of a scaredy-pup when it comes to those things.Dominate female, right here! I`m a confident gal who knows what I want. And guess what? I`m a problem-solving whiz and a quick learner. Treats? Oh yeah, count me in – I`m a foodie at heart.Toys and bones? Not really my style. Playing with humans? Nah, not my thing either. And here`s a secret – I might have a bit of separation anxiety, but it`s only because I love being with my people so much.Last but not least, I might just pick one person to be my ultimate BFF. So there you have it, the fantastic world of Emma! Sweet, gentle, leash walking extraordinaire wit
