Name: Mugsy
Breed: Pekingese/Pug mix
Gender: Male
Born: November, 2006
Size: 15 pounds
Who could resist that face? Mugsy is the cutest little bundle of joy. He loves to play and wrestle with toys and especially balls! Wouldn't you love to cuddle with this cutie?



Name: Dugan
Breed: Doberman Pinscher/Lab/Weimaraner mix
Gender: Male
Born: January, 2007
Size: 70 pounds
Dugan is a happy-go-lucky fellow who aims to please. He thrives when he is around people and there’s nothing he treasures more. Dugan has a fondness for children, and children quickly fall in love with his goofy ways. He forms bonds quickly and prefers not to be left alone. This is one dog who eagerly does whatever you want him to, whether it’s obedience, walks, rides in the car…anything, as long as it’s with his people. Dugan is perpetually happy and it’s hard to feel blue whenever he’s around. He is extremely bright and loves to show off what he knows, and to learn new things. He already knows “Sit”, “Down”, “Crawl”, “Spin” and “Twirl”. Dugan would love to spend his days with an active family, and would surely enjoy having a “girlfriend” to pal around with. He is vaccinated, neutered, micro chipped, housetrained and leash trained.



Name: Billy
Breed: Terrier Mix
Gender: Male
Born: July, 2007
Size: 16 pounds
Billy is a cheerful and devoted "Velcro dog". He is mischievous and lighthearted, and enjoys playing spirited games. Billy has the JRT climbing and jumping skills, and he easily clears a four foot fence. Fortunately, he loves her people, and comes when called if he escapes. Billy possesses a high IQ and will "work for food"! He is not difficult to train, particularly if you have some cheese in your hand. Billy is demurely manipulative when he pleads for attention. If you're a Jack lover and would love a feisty, affectionate dog, Billy is the fellow for you. Billy is vaccinated, spayed, house-trained and leash trained.



Name: Angel
Breed: Terrier mix
Gender: Female
Born: July, 2007
Size: 30 pounds
Angel was named for her sweet little brown eyes. You can’t resist her charm when she looks up at you. She is more of a people dog than a dog dog… and would probably do best in a home where she can have all the human attention for herself, though she does enjoy playing with Little Man.



Name: Emily
Breed: Labrador Retriever/Great Dane mix
Gender: Female
Born: January 18, 2008
Size: 75 pounds adult
Emily is an adorable girl with a sunny disposition. She is the social director for her foster siblings, and is always right in the middle of all the canine activities. She loves toys, and is always exploring her environment for new things to play with. She loves her foster family, and is very devoted to them. She is initially a little reluctant with strangers, but quickly gets past that, and makes them her friends. While playful and affectionate, Emily can also be mellow, and after a short period of cuddling she's likely to wander off to lie in her bed for a short nap. Emily is an active girl, and loves to play. She would probably be best suited for a home with a fenced yard and at least one other playful dog to have fun with.



Name: Evie
Breed: Labrador Retriever/Boxer Mix
Gender: Female
Born: January 28, 2008
Size: 40-45 pounds adult
Evie is lively, lovable, and happy. She loves to race around the yard playing with her foster siblings one minute, and lounge comfortably enjoying belly-rubs from her people the next. She loves being the "couch potato" as well as the "Olympic athlete." She loves to fetch balls and chase the ever elusive frisbee, and her favorite activity is leaping through the air in a vain attempt to catch the ever illusive fireflies that inhabit her play yard. Of course, snuggle time comes in at a close second. At just a year old, Evie would be a good companion for someone who enjoys water and outdoor activities. Whatever you decide to do, she's right there to join in. Evie gets along great with her foster siblings and after an initial introduction, she is comfortable with most strangers. Evie is housetrained and is a low shedder. Evie is current with her vaccinations, takes monthly Heartguard, has been spayed and microchipped, and is ready to be your new best buddy.



Name: Snickers
Breed: Cocker Spaniel
Gender: Male
Born: January 2004
Size: 35 pounds
Snickers is an endearing sweetheart with eyes that penetrate your heart. He is always the cheerful and smiling dog, forever wagging his tail. Snickers is a playful boy, but very gentle with people. Belly rubs send him into a trance every time. This loveable fellow would love to find a family to call his own!
