Story
*Affectionate, Sweet, Laid-back*Gracie is a lovely lady ready to make all your days brighter with her gentle nature and sweet smile. She loves to make new friends, whether they're dogs, kids, cats, or adults. After greeting you with full body wiggles, she'll snuggle up to get belly rubs and pets. Gracie enjoys slow walks with lots of time to lay in the grass and suntan. She loves her kiddie pool and would happily sit in it all day long, then dry her golden fur out in the sun. She previously lived with small dogs, big dogs, and cats, and is house trained. Gracie would be a perfect companion for any home, whether a laidback retiree or a family with children. Gracie has stolen our staff's hearts- come meet her and see why! Visit www.cachehumane.org for more information on how to adopt me!

Story
Paisley is an active pup who is ready to learn, and the way to her heart is through toys. If you have a toy, you speak her language. She has a good grasp of sit and an eagerness to learn. Paisley would make a wonderful companion. She gets along with dogs, mostly preferring to do her own thing, and with proper introductions would do well with cats. If you would like to see Paisley in action, please feel free to reach out. Visit www.cachehumane.org for more information on how to adopt me!

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Look no further!!!  - My name is ~  Eddwinn ~ an Old Soul in a puppy body! I am a 5 month-old male Lab/Shepherd mix weighing about 30 pounds. I should be about 60 - 65 pounds fully grown. Eddwinn is the household flirt—he’ll never leave your side (seriously, not even in the bathroom). If you’re looking for a loyal shadow with a heart of gold and endless love to give, Eddwinn is your guy. House trained – Yes I am! ❤Kennell trained – Yep! ü Dog and people friendly – of course! ü Leash – Currently working on, up until this point I have never used one. Cats – that is a mystery for me…I am sure with the right introduction I will be just fine. Food motivated – YES - Which means I can learn some cool tricks if treats are involved! I would be an amazing adventure buddy, up for camping, hiking or running! I am a confident and brave little guy who absolutely loves attention and full of curiosity.  I am a sweet boy that just loves to be around YOU and anyone that will pet my belly, I will fall into your lap and not move, it is a win, win really.  I recently discovered TOYS, and man, where have they been my short life?!?!  My mom says that I am a lover of life with very soulful eyes. I will make eye contact and expect pets.  I want to be your soulmate! Whether Eddwinn is investigating a crinkly leaf, chasing a plastic bag, picking a fight with a  twig, or following his foster parents around like an adorable shadow, he approaches life with total joy. He is a smart puppy who will thrive in a home that loves playtime, backyard exploration, and teaching a clever boy new tricks.  Let’s plan a meet and greet, I am totally worth it.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Hi! My name is Scoot! I am an energetic, loving 6 month old lab mix gentleman (my foster parents suspect some newfie in there -heads up!) I’m new to this whole dating scene! I enjoy walks on the leash and do not mind the rain. I have recently acquired my own space, I call it The Kennel. I’m doing great in it! I am independent guy, though I love hanging out with my 2 foster bros. When we hang out, I will appropriately excuse myself to the bathroom unlike the rest of these weirdos. My perfect date would look like: You playing hard to get while I chase you! For about 15 minutes and then I want you to snuggle me and rub my belly for an hour until I fall asleep basking in your loving. I’m on it like blue bonnet and then I turn off just easily. My thoughts on kids: I love kids! I’m a little mouthy so I’d do best with kids ages 10 and up please! My thoughts on cats: I have never met a cat. But we can give it a try! Health & Hygiene: I recently came off an excellent farm to table diet, so I’m doing great on my weight. Some might call it chunky. I believe in excellent nutrition, micros and macros, and really focusing on bulking at the moment. I’m a solid 7 out of 10 on the energy scale when I’m ready, then a solid 4 out of 10 all other times. How I prefer to meet your friends: When I meet new people, I am the life of the party! I observe for a minute before interacting and then once I know what’s happening I’ll be the first to cannonball into the pool with you! Something you should know about me: I will slowly close my eyes and melt into you when you rub my chest/ belly. It’s my kryptonite, I can’t refuse it… I swoon. My toxic traits: I run away with blankets… legit! They’re all mine! I don’t share. I don’t put them back. They’re meant to go where I go! I’m a shoe guy… every family has one, I’m the one in mine and likely the one in yours. What my high school friends would say about me: I’m a genuinely nice guy who loves to have a good time. Good team player. I don’t get easily flustered. I’m a chill hang. I’m a great listener. It’s over between us, if: You don’t eat breakfast AND dinner… I don’t skip meals!
