Story
Hello! My name is Wishbone. I came to RASKC as a stray and now I`m ready to find a new home! I`m a sweet but low key boy who needs time to get to know people before I get affectionate. Nothing is known about my history but my behavior suggests I may not have been well socialized. This means that everyday experiences may frighten me more than the average pup. I will need a home that understands my shyness and is willing to go at my pace. I`ve been very loving with the staff members who frequent my kennel and spend time with me - I like to put my big head in their lap and get those sweet, sweet ear rubs. I love chicken jerky treats and will be the bravest boy possible if it means I`ll get one! I keep a clean kennel and am polite for leashing. Due to my size and fearfulness, I will be most likely to succeed in a teen/adult only home where my boundaries can be easily understood and respected. I weigh 60lbs and am considered a large breed dog. I am currently underweight, my new family will want to work with their vet to help me get to the proper size. I am a gentle and loving dog who likes to take things slow. I may get nervous in new situations, so I am looking for a family who understands that I might take some time to warm up. Once I get to know you, I will be a very devoted friend!

Hi! My name is Meza and I am available for adoption.I was brought in by a good Samaritan on 02/07/2025.I weigh 37.9 lbs and am considered a medium breed dog.I am a very smart dog! At the shelter I am practicing how to `sit`, `stay`, `come`, `down` and `shake`.I am an affectionate lovebug who would be thrilled to cuddle up with you at home!I am an independent dog who likes to do my own thing!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 will need to find a home where someone is available for me in these early days. It is important to be consistent with me and socialize me so I can have the best companionship with people and other animals. I require patience because everything is brand new so I will need some TLC while I learn it will help tremendously on a road to success! If you and your family are ready to fall in love my awesome self, please check me out!!

Hi! My name is Duque (Doo-Kay) and I am available for adoption.I weigh 60.0 lbs. I and am considered a `medium breed` I am quite short and stalky!I am a sweet, goofy boy looking for a home to call my own.I love to play in the yard with toys and will quickly win you over when you hear my adorable snorts. :)I am very smart! At the shelter I am practicing how to `sit`, `stay`, `come`, `down` and `shake`.I am an affectionate love bug who would be thrilled to cuddle up with you at home!My caregivers have noticed that I seem to do well with other dogs around my size. I came in with my pal Rambo. When meeting dogs in a new home, I would do best with a slow introduction. I have gone to playgroup several times and seem to have a rambunctious, full contact playstyle that may only be appreciated by other outgoing dogs. I would do best in a home where the other pups are forgiving of my bombastic nature and `Bull in a China Shop` demeanor.I went into a foster home for a little break and my foster states that I did great with everyone I met and loved meeting other dogs. I caught a glimpse of the cat in the home and was quite excitable! I would probably do best in a home without prey-like animals.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!

I am a huge foodie so I can be won over with treats. I take treats gently and will happily `sit` and `shake` for them :)Once I warm up to you I am a sweet guy!The good samaritan said that I was very excited when I met the other dogs in the home! When meeting dogs in a new home, I would do best with a slow introduction.My caregivers mention that I appear to be potty-trained!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!
