Buster-on a medical hold
|
Name: Buster
Sex: Male Breed: Chesapeake Retriever X Age: 6 years Energy level: medium Kids: No Cats: No Dogs No Rescue Story: Owner Surrender Hi there! The name is Buster! I'm a 6-year old, 100 lb Chesapeake Retriever looking to find my forever family. I was previously an acreage dog but now I'm a city slicker that enjoys walks around the neighbour, playing fetch and destroying all the stuffies available. I didn't get walked very much by my previous family but I am good on leash and know how to stay, sit and heel. Because I didn't get much interaction with other dogs growing up I want to ignore them on walks and don't go out of my way to say hi. My foster family has muzzle trained me so that if a dog unexpectedly approaches me on a walk everyone is safe. I currently live in a town house with no backyard, but because I am on a consistent schedule I don't have accidents in the house and gladly wait for my foster parents to return from this thing called "work." Although I'm a big guy I am a HUGE cuddle bug and will gladly take up 75% of the bed and allow you to sleep around me. The retriever instinct in me is strong - so if you are relaxing on the couch I will be bringing you offerings of stuffed toys begging for you to 'Netflix and Fetch' with me. If I sound like the perfect guy for you please don't hesitate to ask about me! ** Enrollment with a force free trainer will be mandatory with my adoption! I also have slight arthritis starting and will require supplements in the future** Apply to Adopt me Today! https://www.pawsinneedanimalrescue.com/apply-to-adopt-a-dog.html |
Sammy & Prim (Bonded pair)-Adoption pending
Names: Sammy (short hair) + Prim (long hair)
Gender: Females
Breed: Chi X
Age: 3 yrs
Size: Small
Energy level: Medium
Rescue Story: I was given up by my owners due to allergies.
Dogs: Yes!
Kids: Yes!
Cats: Yes! Sammy likes to chase them at first but eventually gets used to them.
Hello my name is Prim! and the larger of the two dogs you see in this picture and the other is my Sister Sammy. Don’t mind her if she doesn’t react to you calling her name because she is deaf. However Sammy doesn’t let that get in the way of her doing her dog thing and our human foster parents say for the most part she behaves like any other dog.We are three year old chihuahua cross and my foster parents think there is some terrier in use because of our energy. We would be considered high energy dogs because we want run a lot. Our foster parents say we are very affectionate dogs that are constantly looking for our humans to get snuggles with. We are very well house trained and never had an accident inside. Our human foster parent let us sleep in their beds. However our human foster parents though don’t trust us to be off leash at all. I have a habit when I am out to be so excited by sniffing at things that I go off on my own and I completely ignore my human’s calls to come back. Also my Human has gone on to call me the “Destroyer of Toys” as my chewing has destroyed several toys that needed to get thrown out. Me and my sister are both kennel trained as will go willing when my humans have to go out of the house. My human suspect that if we were left out I might chew furniture and I think they might be right.
Also me and my sister are working on reactiveness. For those who don’t know, it means when me and my sister meet somebody or something new we become very excited. Bark a lot, and if you didn’t know better appear to be very aggressive (but we aren’t). However after we calm down we become very sociable. After our reactive phase we interact very well with dogs and new people. We are currently working with my foster human on this and my forever home would need to continue this. Also when we are reactive we could set off other dogs and possibly intimidate people who aren’t used to dogs. So our forever home would be best someone who has had experience with dogs or who is willing to commit to work with a trainer after our adoption.
Hi this Sammy! As Prim mentioned I am deaf. Though my human says that there are only a couple of things that are effected because of it. Firstly I don’t hear cues to let me know that I should stop barking. What this means is I can go barking longer then I need to. However my human has gone to stomping the floor with their heel to get my attention and sometime that works.Secondly I take a lot longer to warm up to people but when I do I become very clingy. Thirdly with out hearing, I do a lot of following of my human to see what they are up to. Other then that I am as cuddly and loving as my sister. Also one last note. Me and my sister are inseparable. I use my sister as my ears. My sister also lets me eat first and comes to me when I make a sound. We also wrestle each other quite a bit. We are considered a “bonded Pair” and I am told by our humans that Paw In Need will only adopt us out as a pair. I am not leaving my sister behind!
** Special Needs! Sammy is deaf**
**Enrollment with a force free trainer will be mandatory as we can be reactive**

Sex: Female Breed: Lab X Age: 4 years (approx) Size: Large Energy level: medium Kids: Yes! Cats: Yes! Dogs: Yes! But I prefer lower energy dogs that respect my space Rescue Story: Abandoned at the pound Hello I'm Boots! Somebody once loved me but forgot about me. I was left at the pound where I didn't like the environment. I split my tail from wagging it so hard and it is currently healing up. The lady that brought me to the pound said I had a few litters of puppies and was not being taken care of. I am a medium energy girl who is good with all the dogs I have met so far. I don't care for dogs that are up in my face and hyper, that's rude man. I am happy to be the only dog or co-exist with dogs, maybe one day I will learn to play. I am such a good girl though! I am house trained, kennel trained and know sit and lay down. I am also really good on a leash! I mostly love to play with balls! Omg any kind of ball is good, I could play fetch all day! Even by myself! I love to get pets and love to cuddle! My foster mom says my tail is always wagging cause I'm a happy girl but watch your wine on the table! 😐. I do like to protect my kennel a bit but I'm good with sharing everything else. I am a quiet girl but bark if I hear noises sometimes or if I'm left too long and have to use the bathroom during the day. My bark is a low, raspy one though. If you are looking for a new dog who is an easy dog I'm your girl! Apply to Adopt me Today! https://www.pawsinneedanimalrescue.com/apply-to-adopt-a-dog.html |

I am tall so please keep counter areas free of accessible foods. I am house trained and kennel trained but am so big I need a large x pen. I am good on car rides, but can drool as the motion makes me sick. I am currently on medication for my anxiety issues.

Gender: Female Age: 8 weeks old (approx as of November 2018) Breed: Husky X Size: expected Large Energy level: high Rescue story: I was found with my friend Finn in a rural area. Kids: Yes! Dogs: Yes! Cats: Yes! Hi! My name is Ash. I was found huddled against a school and brought to Paws In Need. I was so skinny that my foster pawrents have spent the past couple weeks just trying to fatten me up. They say Im a very smart girl and can't believe how gentle and calm I am considering my age (apparently puppies can get into a lot of michief) Im learning non-verbal cues with a thing called a clicker. I get lots and lots of treats, so I really like the clicker! Ive been learning that a whistle means 'follow me' and that Ill get more treats if I go. What a wonderful thing. I dont mind my collar and leash, but seeing how its new to me I tend to try to wander but Ill get the hang of it sooner or later my foster pawrents say. Oh, and I love love love cuddles. Being a puppy I can chew, so you might want to keep the shoes put away. **I will require force free training upon adoption** Apply to Adopt me Today! https\://www.pawsinneedanimalrescue.com/apply-to-adopt-a-dog.html |

Name: Charlie Brown
Gender: Male Age: 1 year (approx) Size: Large Breed: Lab X Rescue Story: I was found dumped at a rural property. Good with cats: Yes! Good with kids: Yes! But older kids as I am hyper and can knock over smaller kids. Good with dogs: Yes! Hello, I am Charlie Brown. I was dumped a few weeks ago at a rural property and a nice lady took me in and fed me as I was very skinny. It turns out I am mostly blind but I get around fine as I can see a tiny bit. I am a very happy boy who loves everyone. I am very hyper so an active family would the best. I do best with calmer dogs, most likely because hyper dogs energy is scary for me at first. Once I get to know dogs I love to play! I will pull on my leash because I like to go! go! go! so leash training is on my list to learn. I will go into a kennel but it's not my favorite thing. I am working on my house training, because I am visually impaired this is harder for me, but I'll get it! If you are looking for a handsome, active man in your life who loves to give kisses, look no further ;) **Medical: I am mostly blind in both eyes** **I will require force free training enrollment with my adoption due to me needing basic and leash training** Interested in adopting me?

Sex: Female Breed: Newfie X Age: 2 years (approx) Size: XL (110 lbs) Energy level: Medium Kids: Yes! Cats: Unknown Dogs: Yes! Rescue Story: Owner surrender Hi. My name is Lux! I am a 2 year old, 110 pound Newfoundlander looking for my forever home! I am a very gentle giant and super polite in my foster home. I love to go for walks and walk nicely with my foster sister who’s a bit older than me. When I’m excited though I am pretty strong so a harness might be a good idea until I have more training. My favourite thing to do is play with a ball in the back yard. It’s nice when people can throw it for me but I’m pretty good at kicking and throwing the ball myself and sometimes don’t want to give it up! I am very polite in the house and on car rides. I only go on the furniture if I’m invited, I respect the kids that I live with, they think it’s funny when I try to sit on their lap! I’m not as slobbery as my foster mom thought I was going to be and my manners make up for that anyway. I love to be around my people but when I’m tired I like a quiet and cool place to sleep. I am house trained and don’t chew on anything I’m not supposed to. I love to chew on rubber toys! If the front door is left open I will run out if I can past you. I am starting to listen better though and am very motivated by treats. I am not kennel trained and fine out of my kennel. I will run away so a 6 foot fence is mandatory for my adoption. **Force free training enrollment will be mandatory for my adoption due to me not knowing any commands and me running away** Apply to Adopt me Today! https://www.pawsinneedanimalrescue.com/apply-to-adopt-a-dog.html |
