Story
CARSON is an 8 year old Portuguese Water Dog looking for a quiet household with active dog parents. He has some behavioral issues, so we are looking for an adult only home with one or two adults (no grandparents or in-laws) and an outdoors oriented family, who loves to hike, camp, etc. Carson is energetics and a lover of life and people 99% of the time. He is a resource guarder and has bitten several times over his life when somebody has reached in to pick up something that he was guarding. Most recently when the mother-in-law picked up a toy that he dropped when he was in an over excited state. Carson is very smart and very trainable, and these situations are very avoidable. Carson gets along well with cats and can be paired with a Doggy friend when introduced properly. He walks well on a leash with his head harness and has learned not to be reactive on his walks. He loves to play! Great in the car! A perfect travel, buddy! Has always been good for the groomer. And did I mention he loves to hike! If you are interested in adopting Carson, we would love to hear from you. Please fill out an application at www.companimals.org. There will be several meet and greets and several home visits prior to the final adoption so please, families within a normal driving distance only. Adoption $250. Carson is neutered, vaccinated, heartworm tested negative and on prevention. November 3, 2024, 10:40 am

Story
Let me start by saying that Hank is a loveable pup. We adopted him at 6 months old from a rescue about 14 months ago. He will turn two on 03/17. He still is very much a puppy. He is 100% house trained. He does not chew and is crate trained. We have 2 other dogs that he loves. The problem is he has anxiety. He is afraid/anxious of my husband and 3 teenage children. He barks and tries to run and hide when they enter a room. We have tried everything. He’ll put himself in his crate when we have friends or family over because he is afraid. He is 100% fine with me. Initially, it took him a few days to warm up to me. Hank would do great with a single mature woman. He is afraid of men and children. He will need a fenced-in yard and would do great with other dogs in the home. He loves to run and play ball. Other then his anxiety, he has no other health or behavioral issues.
