House trained, Needs basic training, Walks on leash
From Lego's Foster:
Lego is as cute as a button and has a heart full of love. This sweet boy is quiet, affectionate, and happiest when he's spending time with his people. He absolutely loves cuddles and will often gently place his paw on you when he's looking for a little extra attention, one of his many adorable quirks!
Lego enjoys going for walks, loves treats, and is a pretty chill guy overall. He's content to relax by your side but also has a silly personality that shines through and keeps life entertaining. One of his funniest habits is when he decides he doesn't want to go outside, if you try to pick him up, he'll roll onto his back and make himself as comfy as possible, showing off his stubborn (and hilarious) side.
Lego is looking for a family who will appreciate his sweet nature, lovable personality, and desire to be close to his people. If you're searching for a loyal companion who loves affection and will happily be your cuddle buddy, Lego may be the perfect fit for you.

From nelly's Foster:
Nelly has a sweet soul of a Golden Girl and just as much sass. This little grandma gives the best side eye and pursed lips, as she decides she what kind of young wipper-snapper you are. She's very chill if she likes you and very still if she doesn't. She would fit it easily at any knitting circle as she love to curl up, relax and listen to the gossip. She can't seem to find her dentures, so she loves her mush and soft treats due to her missing teeth. She will still try to sneak hard treats if given the chance. She does tend to yell at people to stay off her yard. Nelly is so happy with other dogs, and will play for a minute or two, but a nap is usual to follow such activity. She has her favorite toys that she likes to gum. Help this nervous Nelly become a WHOA NELLY, by giving her the best home a sweet old girl could ask for.

Occasionally, she will lift her little paw to request a back scratch or a belly rub. Shilo has recently learned how to play and will pick out a toy and bring it back to her bed to chew or toss, all the while wagging her tail. She seems so proud of herself! Shilo would love a dog friend to play with, as well. Shilo is a very easy going old lady who is not bothered by too much and will give you so much calming joy

They call me : Snoopy
Predicted Breed: Boxer mix.
Sex: Spayed female
Approximate Age: 7 year
Weight: 42 Lbs.
Rescued from: Local surrender

Ideal Home: Snoopy would prefer a quiet home that will help her grow her confidence. She prefers her humans to be home more but may be ok to leave longer if she has another dog as a companion. She has lived with several other dogs of various sizes and is currently being fostered with cats.
Attached home, Detached home, Condo, Senior home, Quiet home, Left alone 2-4 hrs only
Energy Level: Low
Experience with Kids: Unknown
Experience with cats: Yes
Medical Needs: May have an allergy to grains
Training Needs: She knows some commands and is house trained.
Knows sit, Knows stay, House trained, Crate trained, Shy, Fearful, Walks on leash
From Snoopy's Foster:
When Snoopy first arrived, she was hesitant to leave the house let alone the yard. Through baby steps, she has gained significant confidence; she now explores the sidewalks and pathways. When she hears “Go Walkies” she rushes to the door to get her harness and leash on so she is the first out the door.
Snoopy is a loyal & loving companion who enjoys being near me, whether watching me work in the garden from her favourite hidey-hole or sleeping at my feet indoors. While she remains cautious in entirely new situations, she has become much more comfortable with her daily routine. She would benefit from a training class specifically for fearful dogs, but I believe as she gets to know you she will continue to gain confidence & just be a dog.
As a senior gal, Snoopy is a bit creaky & stiff, but she remains happy to go for walks, as "motion is lotion". She walks well on a loose leash in a heel position in a pack of four dogs.
She is now looking for a retirement home where she can be spoiled with love, treats, pets, and plenty of outdoor time. If you know you can provide this for this lovely senior lady, please let us know.
