Story
I have been known to shower my favorite people in love! I love getting pets and - you guessed it - snuggles! I am learning crate training and am quiet in my crate. I am a medium to high energy dog that LOVES to play fetch. It is my favorite thing in the whole world, aside from eating treats! Watch me play fetch here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IJREYwEZ-sk This handsome pup is originally from NYCACC - Queens and was a stray so we don't know much about his history; but I've found a few things Dobby loves - hanging out with his human friends; snacking on treats; and playing fetch! On our walks, I don't even need to call his name - I just stop and look at him, and in a few seconds, he's wiggling and butt-shake-dancing around my legs while enjoying getting his back scratched. He's been just as social and lovey-dovey with other volunteers he's hung out with, too. Though we estimate Dobby to be 4 years old, he has this adorable puppyish look to him, making everything he does ten times cuter - like the way he happily munches away on treats, and how he catches the toy I toss into his kennel and does a little gallop before carrying it to his bed for some playtime. Dobby knows Sit and is already learning more cues like Come, Stay and Spin in the short time he has been in his foster home. He can be timid at first with new people but then quickly becomes social. Dobby is also very attentive and highly treat-motivated. He's been doing great with his crate training, but he does show signs that he has experienced long term neglect from being in a crate. His foster home has been working on building positive association with the crate for him. Dobby currently sleeps in the crate at night and whenever his fosters are not at home. If you're looking for an active, happy dog that will love you unconditionally, Dobby would be the perfect match for you! Dobby is up to date on all vaccines, he is neutered and is also microchipped. He is believed to be a German Shepherd mix not only because of his appearance but also because he is so intelligent and loyal to the people he loves.

Story
Meet Layla, a sweet and loving 3 year old purebred German shepherd. We adopted Layla as a puppy and raised her in harmony with other pets (dogs/cats) in the same household with no issues. As Layla matured she began to struggle with. nervousness/reactivity, later causing a serious fight with a senior housemate (dog). But has shown zero aggression to humans but would be best in a home with older due to limited exposure to children .Layla Needs to be in a home where she is only pet and receive the love and attention she deserves. We are heartbroken to rehome Layla but have chosen to for the safety and quality of life for her and the other pets in the household. She needs someone willing to work with her on her reactivity and nervousness preferably with someone who has experience with reactive dogs/german shepherd. Layla is house trained,crate trained and knows basic commands such as sit/stay/come/shake and loves long walks and her pool in the summer. She will be dearly missed.

Story
When I got her I was told she was potty trained the lady said she could not keep her and she was beautiful. I was also told she was good with other pets. I was told she has seperation anxiety and would need to be in a kennel while not home because she chews on things. I figured not a big deal because she was less than 2 years old. She just turned 2. She needs a single pet home. she lives in the kennel except when I take her outside to go to the bathroom, eat and drink. She has always been sweet as pie to me. She barks a lot when people walk by or knock. I have the kennel and toys 2 leashes a harness and a collar. Ask me anything number is 315-209-9960
