Salty is a 4 year old yellow Lab who weighs about 60 lbs. He has a docked tail, and is a very handsome boy with a lovely coat. Salty is a sweet boy who loves to be in the house. He has no use for a yard if someone isn't in it with him. He is a very friendly boy who has never met a stranger. He is a typical Lab in that he loves to play fetch and also loves water. He is very enthusiastic about his ball, and plays hard until he gets too hot and has to quit. He goes swimming daily in the creek at his foster parent's house, and can't wait until the daily afternoon walk. He gets along well with other dogs, male and female alike, but he is more interested in people than other dogs. He has good house manners and settles down immediately in the house. He is house broken and crate trained. He also loves car rides and is always ready to go for a ride. He has been around toddlers in his foster home and done fine with them. He would probably do best in a permanent home with older kids however, as he is so intense when throwing a ball that a toddler can get knocked down. He would be a good choice for a working family who can appreciate a dog who doesn't need a lot of daily exercise, or a family with older children who want a buddy to hang around with.

Mischief is an approximately 4 month old Lab mix puppy who was found running loose and never claimed her. She is being fostered with several other dogs, cats, and horses, so she is getting a wide variety of exposure to other animals. She sees children on a regular basis in her foster home, and her foster mom is exposing her to new people and places so she will be well socialized. She lives in the house, is crate trained, and nearly house trained. She loves toys of all types and going for daily walks with her foster family.

Rusty

Rusty is an 8 year old red merle male Australian Shepherd. He has a docked tail and a moderate coat. He is needing a new home because he is very stressed by a toddler in his home. Rusty is quiet and well mannered in the house, and is used to being professionally groomed. He is a sweet older boy who just wants a home without any small children falling over him on a daily basis.

Remus

Remus is a blue heeler mix with an abundance of personality. He is about 4 years old, and weighs about 70 lbs. He is very loving and snuggly. As big as he is, he likes to sit on people's laps or lay next to them. He prefers to be left indoors if his people are gone for less than 8 hours. He is fully house trained. He NEVER has potty accidents even when left alone in the house. Remus knows lots of tricks - sit, turn around, lay down, play dead, take a bow. He is very smart. He sometimes thinks he's part of the conversations and will put his two cents in. He enjoys rawhide, pig ears, dog biscuits (he knows them as cookies), sitting on laps, and having his neck rubbed. He is very affectionate but isn't much of a licker. He'll usually oblige you with a kiss but only if you ask for one. He would do best in a home with no other dogs or cats because he is afraid of them despite his size. Remus is located in Little Rock, AR.
