Jake

Age: 9 years
Sex: Female (yes, Jake is a female)
Size: Large

Jake is a very friendly shepherd/husky mix who came into rescue because her longtime companion was very ill, and he decided to let Jake go now because he wanted to make sure that she would be in the hands of people who would find her a loving and happy forever home. We promise to do that!

Jake is a great girl who lived her life contentedly as an only dog, and she really misses her longtime friend and the comfort of being in a home. She wags when she meets strangers and is very affectionate. Her human reported that they spent most of their time inside, but also took many nice walks together. Jake had free run of her house and was always a very good girl who is well house trained. She shows no signs of food aggression but she can be a bit possessive with her toys (squeaky toys are favorite). Jake has a strong prey drive toward small animals, so no cats or other small pets. She’d also prefer to live without other dogs or children.

Jake would be happiest in a quiet home with one or more adults who are around much of the time because she’s used to constant companionship and feels anxious when left alone. If you spend a lot of time at home and are ready to be loved by a truly wonderful senior dog who wants to be a great companion to a special someone, then maybe Jake would be the perfect new best friend for you.

Rufus

~ Congratulations Rufus! ~

Age: 5 years
Sex: Male
Size: Average

Rufus is a great talker and could be just the dog for you if you’re looking for a fun woo-woo conversationalist. Rufus is a very good natured guy who came into rescue as a result of his former owner’s need to downsize into a smaller living space. He is housebroken and has no food aggression. Rufus has a good amount of energy and enjoys getting out for a walk, or just hanging around the yard. Rufus is friendly with all people but can be choosy when it comes to other dogs, mainly males. He enjoys the company of all of the females we’ve paired him with in the MaPaw play yard.

Jessie knows sit and down commands, enjoys riding in the car, and is good on a leash. Jessie is a great young pup!

Snickers

Age: 8 years
Sex: Male
Size: Average

Snickers, also known as Snitch, is a loving, cuddly, and funny boy who would like nothing more than to spend his time being your loyal companion. He knows his basic commands and is good with most other dogs. Snitch is a senior, but still enjoys getting out for a good walk. He does well on a leash and is fine in the car. He’s got some mild separation anxiety but responds very well to over the counter medication to help him relax and stay calm. He can be a bit possessive when it comes to his food and toys, so this dear dog would do better in a family with just adults, or with children who are older. Snickers is a great dog who is ready and waiting to offer loads of love to that special someone.

Bella

~ Congratulations Bella!!! ~

Age: 8 Years
Sex: Female
Size: Average

Bella is a sweet and sassy eight year old Siberian with beautiful baby blue eyes and a constant grin. She is a petite girl with a huge personality. Sadly, Bella was a victim of the economy and needed to come to us until we could find a new forever home for this sweetheart.

Bella is at a wonderful age ~ she is calm and trustworthy in the house. When invited, she loves to kick up her heels and play. She is wonderful with other dogs and loves quality time with people. She has a beautiful voice and will greet you with “woo woos”. She walks well on a leash (husky style) and loves walks and car rides. Sadly Bella has an inoperable tumor and she will be staying with her foster family (who officially adopted her in June 2015).

Coco

~ Congratulations Coco!!! ~

Age: 7 years
Sex: Female
Size: Average

Meet Coco, a very affectionate and loving husky/shepherd mix. Coco is in rescue because her family downsized to smaller home. Space was too tight for she and another family dog, and the other dog forcefully claimed the space. (You can see some of the injuries on her leg, but she’s healing well.) Luckily for a special someone, Coco is looking for a new forever home. She is timid at first, but this sweetie will be rolling on her back and wagging for a belly rub as soon as she gets comfortable. Coco is house trained, completely friendly, and walks beautifully on a leash. A quiet home with just adults and maybe another mellow dog companion would make her happiest.

Nikita

~ Congratulations Nikita! ~

Age: Almost 2 years
Sex: Female
Size: Average

Look at that sweet face! Nikita is a gentle, petite, and friendly girl. She is house broken and shows no signs of food aggression. Nikita has occasional seizures which are treated with modestly priced medication, and she is doing very well in her foster home. She’s good with children, gets along with other dogs, and walks well on a leash. She can be a bit shy at first, but you’ll have a dear friend once she gets comfortable and warms up to you. She knows her basic commands and responds to them selectively (like any young husky). At home Nikita respects boundaries with baby gates (even though she could easily jump them), and when you’re ready to venture out, she would love to join you for a joy ride in the car. Nikita is a dear dog who deserves a great forever home with that special someone.
