She is so sweet, loves everybody and wants to be near you always. She would do very well in a home where someone is around all day or with another dog. She has a lot of energy so access to a back yard or somewhere she can run and get her energy out. She is very smart and crate trained Rehoming due to lifestyle changes and I am no longer able to give her what she needs.

Story
Hi, my name is Coco and I am available for adoption!Watch Coco`s adoption video!I am an affectionate love bug who likes to meet every person I come across, and if they let me, I will give them a kiss! My prior owners were seniors. They brought me to the shelter when they were no longer able to care for me and said that I was outgoing, loving, playful, and a true Prince.I was a bit chonky when I first came to the shelter on April 14, but now I am at a much healthier weight at around 69 pounds. I do love my food and will happily do (almost) anything you ask for a treat!I may be a senior dog, but I still have plenty of get up and go for adventures or play sessions! If you take me for a walk or let me enjoy a good chew toy, I am happy to hang out while you work or binge watch your favorite show. I prefer to do my snoozing on a comfy dog bed, couch, or on your bed with you!At my foster home, I like to look out the window and watch what is going on and if a dog goes by, I will bark and whine because I am excited to see them. I do not really like to see cats or squirrels so I will let them know that. I need a home with no cats or small animals.My prior owners said I was dog-reactive. I am showing some reactivity in my foster home, but when I was at the shelter, I participated in play groups with other dogs my size and seemed to really enjoy it! My foster caregiver tries to take me on walks early in the morning when there are less dogs out and about. I am working on seeing dogs without reacting. Sometimes I can do it, other times it is harder for me. Hopefully my forever home will continue to work on this with me as I love my walks!My foster caregiver thinks I would enjoy a home where my people are home more often than not as I really like spending time with people. I do not have to be by your side all the time, but I like to know you are there with me. I have been learning it is okay to stay by myself. At first, I whined and barked, but I am much quieter and relaxed now that I am learning my people will come back and also have access to the couch to snooze on while I am alone. I am a bit of a couch potato!My foster caregiver says I am the perfect mix of chill and silliness. She tells me I am such a sweet boy and hopes that I will find a forever home soon!

Story
Hey there! My name is Oro!I came to RASKC as a stray on May 20th 2024. Now I`m looking for a new home.Do you like fetch? Because I LOVE fetch! I`ll play from sun up to sun down, every single day. I`ll fetch round balls, footballs, flat toys and I`ll even try to round up things too big for me to carry! I`m a very smart and energetic boy who is looking for someone who wants to play as much as I do. I`m very eager to find my new family and get to impressing them with all of my amazing jumps.Speaking of skills, I`ve also been working on my manners at RASKC and I`ve got `sit`, `shake`, and `down` down! I`ve got pretty awesome leash skills too. I keep a clean kennel so I may have had some prior house training.I`m the type of dog who wants my family all to myself. I don`t mind seeing other dogs from a distance on walks, I`m great about minding my own business. At home, I just want to be your only fuzzy friend though.I weight 64lbs and am considered a large breed dog.I am a spirited dog with a fun-loving personality. I am still working on my manners, so I would do best with a family who is willing to work with me and help me become the best dog I can be!So why don`t you come on down to RASKC and say hi! I know that I`m already excited to see you!

Hi! My name is Badruu and I am available for adoption. I was brought in by a good Samaritan on 07/09/24.I weigh 78 lbs and am considered a `large breed` dog.I am a very smart dog! At the shelter I am practicing how to `sit`, `down` and `paw`.I am an affectionate lovebug who would be thrilled to cuddle up with you at home!I am full of energy and I love to play! I tend to calm down more when the people around me stay calm. I do best when I have lots of exercise and something to keep my mind busy.I would do best in a home with older children. I am excitable and I may accidentially hurt a smaller child not knowing how strong I am. I have been known to resource guard, meaning that I am displaying behavior that is intended to convince other dogs or humans to stay away from a particular treasure or `resource.` The resource that I tend to guard is toys. If you take me home you will benefit from in home guidance to help to manage and improve this behavior.I am a spirited dog with a fun-loving personality! I am still working on my manners, so I would do best with a family who is willing to work with me and help me become the best dog I can be!
