Griffey
Age: 2 Years Old
Weight: 112 pounds

Good with people? Yes

House trained? Yes
Crate trained? Yes. Not crated at night but does great for a few hours when we’re not home.
Energy level: High-moderate but loves his afternoon naps, too.
Travel well? Yes
Favorite toy/activity: Walks and carrying his stuffed toys around the house. Not at all interested in swimming!
Leash trained? Working on it and getting better with every walk.
Fence required? Yes, if he’s not supervised or on a lead he will run after walkers or a car pulling in the driveway.
Griffey is a big, strong, lovable boy! He’s doing great with his basic training but will need someone to be consistent with him, especially with leash training as he can be a bit rambunctious when he sees another dog or decides he wants to go sniff something. Training with treats is not a good approach for him because he gets fixated on the food, plus he needs to shed more pounds. He will sit, shake, stay, and come for a toy. He may do best as an only dog for a while so he gets one on one training. He’s scheduled to be neutered in mid-June.

Yes she is great with people 👧 Children? Yes she is fantastic with children of all ages, can’t get enough of them 🐕 Dogs? Yes 🐱 Cats? Yes 🐄 Other animals? Unknown 💩 House trained? Yes 🌐 Crate trained? Yes she is great in crate, goes in easy & is quiet all night ⚡ Energy level: medium 🚗 Travel well? Yes 🧸 Favorite toy/activity: chasing toys, running around with her Foster Brother, chewing on bones 🚶♀️ Leash trained? Yes but needs some work as she pulls a little bit 🥅 Fence Required? Yes as she is very fast, we would recommend it. Hello everyone! Meet the lovely Violet. This lovely lady is a year old & weighs 54 lbs. When we first got her we thought she was a coyote, ha ha. When Violet came to us she was a little under the weather, so her first day she was sleeping for the day. Since being on Medication for Kennel Cough her true personality has flourished. She has her appetite back but does like other dogs to keep their space as she eats. She is both sweet & spunky, lol. She can sit with you on the couch & take all the affection you will give her, as well as rough house with her 100 lb foster brother with toys, chasing each other around the yard & playing tug of war. She likes to sunbathe in the bay window & will alert you when a dog outside walks by. Violet will greet you as you walk in the door & will jump up only once but we have been working on that. Violet is great around kids & is a little bit obsessed with them as she will just play & entertain them until you go get her. Violet does pull slightly on leash but is doing better. She is wonderful in the crate at night as she sleeps the night away & has zero accidents in the house. Violet would be a wonderful addition to anyone’s home. Violet could be an only dog if you keep her busy, but would also be good with another dog as well to get exercise in for the day. The more we have Violet, the more we get to peel away how wonderful she is. Don’t miss out on this sweet lady!

Breed: Black Lab Mix
Blackie aka Ladybug
Dog’s weight: 68 lbs
Dog’s Age: 7 years
Furniture: Easily moved off
Car Rides: Good but barks at times
Can open muzzle (mouth): Easily
Touching: Loves to cuddle

House trained? Yes. I don’t usually crate her but she is scared of thunder so when it storms she finds comfort in a crate with a sheet over it and thunder shirt on.
What is your foster dog’s prey drive? On a scale of 1 to 10, “Oh look there’s a squirrel” to “SQUIRREL!! I gotta get the SQUIRREL!!!”: 7
This furbaby knows: Sit, Come, Leave it, Off, No (jumping on guest)
Any known medical issues? She’s been treated for heartworms and her back legs seem a little weak but don’t seem to cause pain.
Any known history? Was surrendered with several other dogs when owner was evicted.
Good with dogs? She’s been great with everyone she met. Sometimes she’ll be playful and sometimes she’ll get annoyed with rambunctious ones that jump on her, like a mom…..and they all listen 
Does your foster dog NEED a fence? No….she is trainable to use an invisible fence
Cats? No
Leash trained? Yes she’s great but will try to chase a cat or squirrel for a few seconds if she sees them but is easy to redirect
What is your foster dog’s activity level? On a scale of 1 to 10, couch potato to wild child: 3 she will have bursts of playful and loves to go on walks but she also enjoys just watching out the front window
Blackie aka Lady Bug, would be amazing for an older person who can manage her moderate bursts of wanting to chase a cat or squirrel. She really hasn’t been around kids before we got her so she was a little nervous or uncertain around them at first but seemed to adjust quickly. She hasn’t had any little kids climbing on her or anything so she probably would not appreciate that. She does bark at things she sees while on “watch” or random noises so an apartment probably isn’t ideal. She loves overseeing her castle, rides and walks. She doesn’t seem to care about toys. She is a great copilot in the car.
