Story
Hi, I'm Kendra. I'm a sweet girl with a playful spirit. I love to chase my tail and play with my squeaky toys. I'm a bit shy when I first meet someone new, but once I get to know you, I'll be your loyal companion. I love cuddling up for a good movie or a nap. I'm also a great listener, so if you've had a rough day, I'm here for you. I'm looking for a forever home where I can share my love and loyalty. Adopting me means gaining a friend who will always be by your side, ready to play or cuddle whenever you need.

Story
Sasha is one of a kind. We believe she is Golden Retriever or Yellow Lab with possibly some Greyhound mixed in. She is beautiful dog. Very regal in stature who needs to be met in person to get a sense of how special she is. She has a confident calmness about her but is playful and gentle.  She loves playing with her soft toys, chasing a ball, giving kisses and hugs, and rolling in the grass. She also enjoys afternoon naps and a laid-back lifestyle. Sasha walks well on a leash and wants to please. She hasn't been exposed to many children but would probably do best with an older child. She is good with other dogs and interested in cats but friendly.  She is slightly selective with female dogs with high energy but loves to wrestle with all the boys. Would be best suited with a playmate. This active gal needs a large fenced in backyard with a tall fence for her to get all her running out. Sasha is ready to be your perfect active best friend.    She currently resides with her foster parents and their animals on about 3 acres with a fenced in yard. They have 3 other dogs that just adore her, she is definitely the center of attention and friendly to everyone she meets. A fenced backyard is a must. She is current on vaccines, spayed and microchipped. Sasha is a great dog and will make a terrific companion for one lucky family!!! ##2034245##

Story
Meet Max. He’s a good boy and the most loyal dog. He loves cuddles and pets and gives the best affection. He knows basic commands like sit, lay, shake. He’s up to date on rabies and on flea preventative. He may be considered a senior but It’s never stopped him from enjoying physical activity. We’ve had Max for over 7 years and he’s done well with our twins (they’re 6). We also have another dog he does well with. Max loves affection and gets a bit sad when he’s not with anyone. He would do great with someone who spends a lot of time at home or could bring him along on their adventures. Unfortunately Max does not get along with our cat and this is the reason for rehoming. We had an incident and It’s left Max being an outside dog. Please consider Max as your next companion as he would make a wonderful one. It devastates us to have to let him go and would love if we could find him the perfect match!

Story
Meet Trooper! Trooper (5 years, 67.8 lbs.) is very lovable and loves going on runs and playing in the yard, he was surrendered by his owners because they no longer had the time to give him the attention he deserved. Trooper would need to be an only pet, but I promise he's got enough love in him to fill the role of 2 dogs! He would love nothing more than to snuggle on the couch and play tug of war. Trooper is waiting for his forever home!

Story
Introducing the stunningly handsome Moss! We rescued Moss from a local overcrowded animal control and he has become a volunteer and staff favorite during his time at Furkids. This beautiful, 3 year old boy has a big personality that's hard to ignore. His lively energy makes everyday and every new adventure bright and exciting. Moss is a sweet boy with a playful side, but he is also independent enough to keep himself entertained. He is house trained and is pretty good at picking up new commands like "paw" and "lay down" - he's a really clever dog. He would absolutely thrive in a home with a fenced in yard where he can zoom around. Moss weighs 51 pounds and is around three years old (estimated birthdate 03/25/2021), and his adoption fee is $185. He is neutered, microchipped, and up-to-date on all vaccines and preventatives. Want to learn more about Moss? Fill out a survey at https://www.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/FKDS/Dog, and an adoption counselor will reach out within 72 hours of your survey submission to provide more details and arrange a meeting. You must be at least 21 years old to adopt.

Story
    Hey everyone, my name is Tibia, aka “the Golden Child.” My momma was a chocolate lab and my daddy was a golden retriever/black lab retriever (he was on the smaller side). I'm the "golden" child because all of my siblings are black ;-)  I'm about to turn a year old soon, and I'd love to celebrate by having a home of my own.  I haven't had a lot of exposure to the outdoor world and all that it has to offer. Sometimes, it feels scary But I'm eager to explore and to learn. I can be an only child or I could have playmates, but fommy says no little dogs or cats because I don't know how to play properly with them and sometimes when we're in a big yard I think they're a squirrel instead of a little dog. It was an honest mistake, right? ;-) I didn't hurt the little guy, but I sure scared him and his mommy. So we'll stick with bigger dogs for me.   I'm working on crate training and doing very well, and I’m doing really great with my collar and leash because I never even knew those things existed until a couple weeks ago. But I sure am enjoying learning all these new things about the world.   Snuggling and supervising you do the laundry are just two of my favorite things. I'm a super quick learner, and I love to be outdoors with my person. So, I think I'd make a great running partner. Right now I'm barely 40lbs, but I should get to be about 50/55lbs max.   Well, if you've gotten this far in my autobiography then you must be captured. So click on the application form and come and meet me. You won't regret it, I promise!       An Adoption Application for this dog can be found and submitted online. http://www.angelsrescue.org/adopt/adoption-forms  Please be sure to like our Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/angelsrescue.  Email inquiry@angelsrescue.org  Note: Some apartments and neighborhoods have breed restrictions. We verify rental policies and adhere to any regulations. Please ensure you understand those restrictions before choosing a dog.          March 10, 2025, 9:35 pm
