History: We recently welcomed a group of deserving puppies and dogs to our organization from an overcrowded shelter who needed to give them a second chance! They are sweet, social, and goofy pups who are hoping to find their forever home soon!

A note from the foster: Now that he’s all healed up, it’s finally time to introduce Podrick! Or as we like to call him, Pirate Pete. He’s such a goofy, happy guy that until you see it, you’d never even know he was missing an eye. He loves his spot on the couch, exploring the nearby trails, and his favorite game: chasing waves by the shore. He’s very good at matching your energy, so he knows when to relax and when it’s time for an adventure. He absolutely adores people, and always greets them with excitement. He’s been such a sweetheart, and so well behaved in the house that we haven’t even had to crate him. He’ll do anything for a treat, but still knows how to sit patiently for his meals. He’s come a long way with his leash walking, too - he rarely pulls anymore, unless he sees another dog (which we’re working on). At this time, he’d do best in a home without other animals, but I do think there's potential for him to do well with another dog. They seem to make him nervous due to his blind spot on the left, but he’s been getting more comfortable every time! Podrick is an amazing dog with so much character, and will do great in any home that’s willing to give him lots of love, walks, and just a little extra patience to help him safely learn his new environment.

Adoption Fee: $500 + tax

Adoption Status: Is this dog available? Submitting an application is the best first step to learning if a dog is still available. There is a chance this dog could have a pending adoption when your application is submitted, however our team will offer approved applicants to be put on a waiting list for that dog. Additionally, we can make recommendations on other dogs that may be a match. Pending adoptions do not mean the adoption is finalized. Why did we implement this change? We implemented this update because, unfortunately, dogs were pending for applicants for several weeks and then the applicant would change their mind. This happens more often with puppies, as applications are submitted impulsively more often for them. Our process is great because it takes a little time, so impulsive decisions fade. However it was unfortunate for the dogs, and the foster homes, as then the process needed to be re-started. By securing a wait-list we are able to move forward more quickly if a pending adoption falls through. This is a new process for us, so your feedback along the way is helpful! Thank you for supporting rescue and adoption!
