My name is Gunter and I'm here to bring you 🌞SUNSHINE🌞 and ✨HAPPINESS✨! Here's how I greet people: the first two or three seconds, I go ❓🤨❓and then I go 😄🥰😍 Hey, d'ya think you could pick me up and hold me on your hip like a toddler? I would FREAKING LOVE THAT. I'd be at just the right level for face kisses! I'm like 40 lb, so yeah, I guess most people think I'm probably too big to carry around, but a guy can dream. At about a year old, I'm still practically a baby! And, no matter how
Hello, my darling. My name is Luigi and I'm looking for love. I'm not one for big public displays- Jumbotron smooches? Skywriting? Getting up in front of the whole school and putting me on the spot with a cheesy serenade? I think I would literally sink into the ground. I'm a very loving fellow, but privately- when things are quiet and it's just the two of us and the rest of the world can just... fade away. That's my favorite. I purr and arch up to meet your hand and give cheek rubs and everything. It's beautiful and sweet and only for
Hi! I'm Toffee! I'm a good boy! Wanna be my best friend? Too late! I've already decided! We're TOTALLY best friends. Hey, let's go for a walk! No wait- let's play tennis ball! Oooh, hang on- are those treats? Guess what?! I know how to SIT for treats! I'm really good at it. Hey, do you think you could teach me some more tricks? I'd love to learn! I'm smart and eager to please. Sometimes, I get excited just to see people and I forget my manners and jump! Can you blame me? I just REALLY love people! It doesn't take

Hey pal! Hey! Come on- don't pass me by without stopping to talk. That's better. Hey, let's start with the basics: My name is Sprocket, I'm two years old, and I'm looking for a home. How about you? Oh... you HAVE a home? That's... that's cool. Good for you. I don't suppose you have room in that home for, say, a strapping black-and-white feline? I mean, yes- I'm unemployed and I can't pay rent in a traditional way. But make no mistake: I still bring a LOT to the table. For one thing, you'll never be hurting for conversation with
My name is Chomper and I'm not the kind of dog whose world is just black and white. Where some dogs are brown-eyed or blue-eyed, I'm both. Where some dogs' coat colors are easy to describe, mine is... Blue? Tan? White? Merle? A little of each? It's not just that, though. For some dogs, life is good. People are great. That's all they've ever known and all they ever will know. And for some, people are scary and life is tough. For me... it's a little of both. I love people. I'm cuddly and affectionate and I really WANT to
Well! Hello there! I've seen a lot of people around these parts, but... none of them quite like you. You're incredible. My name is Matais, by the way. I'm about two years old and I need a new home. Thing is, I've been looking for someone special. That's why you caught my eye. Because I can't go to just ANY home. See, I have a condition called Feline Leukemia (FeLV). It's not as scary as it sounds- I'm a healthy boy who doesn't need any extra care or medication and I could stay that way my whole life. My FeLV
Heartworm disease is devastating. The treatment is vicious, painful, expensive, and takes months to complete. It's also completely preventable! A tasty and relatively inexpensive monthly chewable knocks those suckers right out before they can take hold. So you would think it wouldn't be very common, right? Unfortunately, it's not at all uncommon. We take in about a dozen heartworm positive dogs every year and make sure they get the treatment they need and deserve. Toffee was one of those dogs- found as a stray, Toffee was young, active, and apparently healthy. Whoever his former owners were, they likely never would
My name is Harley and I'm ready to have the BEST. SUMMER. EVER! You might not think I look like a summer girl and... well... yes and no. I mean, obviously, I'm a husky. We're snow dogs. But THIS summer is different. Because this is the summer I'm going to find my FOREVER HOME! I can't wait to see what kind of adventures I'll have! The holidays I'll celebrate! I'm 8 years old, but I've still got plenty of wonderful things ahead. I'm an excellent dog- great house manners, friendly with strangers (I'm not really sure about little eye-level kids, but bigger
