Astro is a 7-year-old, 96-pound big ol’ boy looking for a home for the pawlidays. Astro is an A+ cuddler and is exceptionally sweet and affectionate. We know from his previous guardian that he is house trained, knows cues for sit, shake and fetch, and has done wonderfully around kids. Astro loves to play fetch and chase tennis balls. Astro is working very hard on his leash manners and clicker training. He’s a staff favorite and for good reason!

Kipsie is an almost 2-year-old male dog who weighs 75 pounds. Kipsie has a beautiful brindle coat and a glimmering personality. Kipsie is extremely friendly with everyone he meets. He adores playing with other dogs and knows some cues, like sit. He is a great leash walker — very easygoing! We know from his previous guardian that he has lived in a home harmoniously with other dogs, kids and even cats.

Ike is a young male dog who is looking for a patient, loving family. We don’t know much about Ike’s past, but we know he’s had a bit of a rough start. He was found as a stray animal with another dog and both of them were underweight. Ike can be very shy when meeting new people, but is gentle. He would love a quiet home that can provide him with the comfort and space needed to acclimate to a new environment. Ike seems interested in meeting other dogs, so he may enjoy another canine companion to help boost his confidence. We promise this sweet and handsome boy is worth a little extra work.
