Meet Candado, a canine resident of our shelter. This adult dog is known for his intelligence, independence, and curiosity. Every day is a new adventure for Candado, as he loves to explore his surroundings and learn new things. He`s often seen solving puzzles faster than any other dog in the shelter, showcasing his sharp intellect. His independent nature doesn`t mean he`s not affectionate; he`s just as ready for a cuddle as he is for a solo adventure. His curiosity keeps him lively, always sniffing out new experiences and making each day exciting.

Hi, I'm Tanner! I am a ball of energy and I love to play! I am very nervous around new people and will take some time to warm up. But once I get comfortable, I am your best friend! I am not sure about other dogs yet but it is definitely possible for me to have dog friends. I LOVE treats, they are the way to my heart! Please stop by or call my friends at Journey Home if you are interested in meeting me!

Story
Meet Raya Sweet and Loving 6-Month-Old Dog Looking for a New Home We are looking for a loving, forever home for our wonderful purebred Akita. She’s a loyal, affectionate companion with a heart full of love to give. This beautiful girl is great with people of all ages, from children to adults, and has a gentle, playful nature. She does well with larger dogs but, unfortunately, does not get along with cats or small dogs. She’s a smart, treat-motivated girl who is housebroken, playful, and eager to learn. With her loving temperament and striking appearance, she’s sure to make a great addition to any family. Her AKC paperwork is included, and she’s ready to find her new best friend. If you’re looking for an intelligent, affectionate, and stunning dog, she may be the perfect match for you!

Story
Arizona is a 4.5 year old Akita Mix that was transferred to rescue from a local shelter with her newborn puppies. After raising her puppies, who have all been adopted, Arizona has settled into a happy life and routine with her foster and is a friendly, healthy adult dog. She's been with us for more than seven months, which is surprising given that she is housebroken and gets along with people, other dogs, and even cats. We believe that prior to rescue, Arizona spent a lot of time outside and can sometimes be more comfortable lounging in the backyard than in the house. She's also become very attached to her foster dad (as Akitas tend to do) and will require an adoptive household that understands there will be a transition period before she is comfortable with her new family, surroundings, and routine. Arizona can present with separation anxiety, which includes pacing and verbalizing her displeasure, however with time and consistency, these behaviors have been eliminated in her foster home. We'd love to see Arizona thrive in a home that knows the breed and is truly committed to the time and energy required to help a rescue dog settle into a new and better life. Whether you work from home, are active and like to take your canine pals along, or own property where she can explore, we'd encourage you to consider making Arizona a member of your family. Arizona is spayed, fully vaccinated, heartworm tested negative, microchipped with registration, wormed, and has had entropion correction surgery on her left eye. Her adoption fee is $350.
