Story
Hello! My name is Chance. I am one of twelve puppies from the same litter. My fur is short, soft, and brown/black in color. I have really long legs and a very muscular body (that probably helps me run so fast when I play with my brothers). They say that I am about 6-1/2 weeks old, so I am still growing. I have really big paws (or so I hear everyone say) so I think I am going to be a pretty big dog. I have a good appetite - so I think that will help me grow too. I think I stand out because of my name and character. The definition of chance is `the possibility of something happening`...which is what I am all about! I tend to be the leader of my litter and I make things happen - especially when it comes time to play! I am the one who gets everyone to join in on the fun of a wrestling match or a quick chase around the Adoption Center. I am very active but I also like to engage in some gentle play with my brother Dexter. We like to lay on our backs on the couch and touch paws with one another in the air. It`s pretty entertaining for us and it makes the humans laugh a lot.l love playing with my siblings but I am also very independent and curious. I am always looking around the Adoption Center discovering new things. Last week, I learned how to go down the slide at the Adoption Center - it was so much fun! I was pretty good at it because of my long body. I love to play with squeaky toys and stuffed toys too. I am `teething` right now so the humans will give me little teething bones - which I love. They keep me busy and it feels so good to chew on them. I hear that I am a `very handsome boy` all the time. I love how everyone picks me up and says that to me (it makes me feel so special). I am a very good boy when it comes time to eat. I don`t gobble my food and I don`t fight with my brothers for food. Sometimes I eat a little...go rest...and come back and eat a little more. I love to eat, play with my brothers and be with humans. I would love to have a furever home of my own...give me the chance be an awesome addition to a loving family.Interested in adopting this dog?

Story
Meet Primrose, a two-month-old sweetheart with a soft black coat and touches of white and brown on her chest and paws. Weighing under 25 pounds, she’s one of twelve siblings, likely with some Labrador and German Shepherd in her mix. Her name, inspired by *The Hunger Games* and the flower symbolizing “new beginnings,” perfectly reflects her gentle and loving nature. Full of playful energy, Primrose adores anything that squeaks or she can chew. Like any puppy, she’s still learning what’s okay to nibble on, but she’s easily redirected to her toys. Potty training is going well—she quickly does her business outside when given the chance, though she’s still working on crate training and prefers to be near people for comfort. Primrose is a social butterfly who loves dogs of all sizes, especially playful ones who match her energy. She may be hyper at times, but she’s all love—never aggressive, just enthusiastic. With her affectionate heart and eagerness to learn, Primrose is ready to blossom in a forever home that will guide her with patience and love. Could that be you? 🌸🐾 Interested in adopting this dog?

All of our dogs start their journey in Memphis, Tennessee where they remain in loving foster families until they are adopted. Once adopted, some pups stay local in Memphis. Many others travel via one of our transport partners to their new forever homes. We use Pet Express Transport (https://petexpresstupelo.wordpress.com) for our Nashville, Knoxville and New England adoptions. For our Midwest adopters, we have our own private transport. Breed selection is done in conjunction with two local vets and is not to be considered a guarantee but rather a well-educated decision from well qualified staff. Due to the extremely high volume of inquiries we receive, we ask that you request, complete, and submit an application before asking additional questions. We try very hard to include all pertinent information in our bios. We are excited to help you find your new family member. However, Woof River is 100% volunteer operated. We want to spend our time saving dogs and assisting those adopters who have taken the time to complete an application. Thank you for understanding. Please LIKE Woof River on Facebook! Thank you for choosing rescue!!

Story
Meet Blizzard, a charming, young adult, shepherd mix with a heart as pure as freshly fallen snow. This young pup is eager to find his forever home and share his boundless love and loyalty with a lucky family.Blizzard is the epitome of a good boy! He`s mastered crate training and at night, he even settles down in his crate with the door open. However, as typical shepherds do, he may get a bit mischievous if left bored, so plenty of toys and mentally stimulating activities are a must to keep him entertained.On walks, Blizzard is a dream companion, walking nicely on leash unless a squirrel or rabbit catches his eye - then his curiosity may lead to a bit of pulling. He`s a social butterfly, always eager to greet other dogs with a wagging tail and a friendly demeanor. While he may be a tad shy initially with new people, once he warms up, his affectionate nature shines through!Blizzard isn`t one to bark excessively; he prefers to express himself through playful antics and the occasional wag of his tail. While he may not be highly food motivated, he craves human attention and relishes playtime, whether it`s with a favorite toy or exploring the great outdoors.Being a shepherd, Blizzard got a little unlucky with his hips, but he`s doing well with conservative management. With the right care and love, Blizzard is ready for his next adventure with a family who will cherish him as much as he`ll cherish them!Adoption fee is $360Email: dogs@almosthomefoundation.orgAlmost Home Foundation`s adoption requirements:(1) Be at least 21 years of age;(2) Have the consent of all adults living in the household;(3) Have approval from the residence owner;(4) Have valid ID with current address;(5) Be approved by Almost Home Foundation as a suitable adoptive home; and`(6) Live in the suburbs surrounding Schaumburg (Illinois Residents only)*** Please note that Almost Home Foundation accepts only cash, Zelle, or checks for adoption fees; we do not accept debit or credit cards. ***

Story
Male - 5 years - 40 lbs - Microchipped - Neutered - NYHi, I’m Ricardo. I’m a 5-year-old, 40 lb neutered male. I am already housetrained and crate-trained. I use my crate as a safe space mostly; I do not need to be shut in my crate when I am left home alone. I have coexisted well with adults, with a preference for women, though I am very shy and don’t seek much interaction. I will accept calm affection from my foster mom. Most of the time I am happy to people watch from afar. I will need someone willing to be patient as I come around to them and my surroundings in my new home; I had had no or minimal human contact prior to coming to Echo Dogs so this human world is all new to me and I have been trying hard to learn! I love having the company of other dogs and will require at least one confident canine companion to help guide me. I am wonderful about adjusting my play style to match that of the dog I am playing with and all around have good canine social skills. I am also gentle around cats and wouldn’t mind having feline siblings. I have been learning about these things called toys and they’re pretty fun! I especially like the plushy toys and benebones. I have been working hard on leash skills and can now join on quiet outings! I may get nervous at times and need gentle encouragement. I am still pretty uncomfortable with car rides so that is also a work in progress. I have learned to reliably come to my foster mom when she calls me. I currently take clomicalm to help me manage my anxiety. I am a gentle-natured boy who is ready to find a patient human ready to help me continue navigating this human world—could you be my human(s)?

Story
Male - 10 months - 52 lbs - Microchipped - Neutered - VAHi there! My name is Silver and I am a 10-month-old, 52 lb neutered male. I am already housetrained and crate-trained. I am still young so I need to be crated when I am unsupervised. I love people! I have met both men and women with enthusiasm. I love to crawl into your lap for affection and will give hugs. I would love a home where I can spend plenty of time with my family and be involved in activities. I am happy to welcome visitors to our home. I can be pushy with other dogs and am selective about my canine friends. I have shown resource guarding of food / chew items towards other animals and barrier reactivity towards unknown dogs, which is something to be aware of. I would do best as an only dog or with a socially adept female dog. I have a strong prey drive so cannot go to a home with cats. I love toys—anything I can chew on will work! I would be happy to play fetch with you. I would love to have a yard where I can run! I am an intelligent boy who would love to find a family willing and able to dedicate time to continuing my training! I have learned sit and come with my foster family. I walk fairly well on leash and only pull slightly. I unfortunately get sick on car rides so they aren’t the most enjoyable for me. I am  a happy, loving boy who would love to find my perfect adoptive family? Could that be with you?
