Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Banner is a very sweet boy who wants to please and give kisses. He is timid in meeting new people and needs time to warm up to you. His foster mom is helping him slowly come out of his shell and now he's a big snuggler! He loves other dogs, but cannot be around cats as he has a prey drive towards them. He is house broken and crate-trained. We are looking for a home with another dog to place Banner in, so he has a sibling to play with, to teach him the ropes and let him know he can trust his humans. We are looking to place him in a home with children 10+ or adults only since he may feel overwhelmed around younger children.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Meet Blanca - This beautiful girl is a 4 yr old Great Pyrenees is about 90 lbs,  Blanca had to have her front leg amputated a couple of weeks ago due to an injury.  This has not slowed this girl down at all.  Blanca is loving and sweet.  She is great with other dogs, but we have no idea on cats.  Blanca is not a working dog as she prefers to be in the house on a nice comfy dog bed.  Blanca requires a fully fenced yard with a 6 ft fence.  Blanca is not crated in her foster home and does not need to be crated.  She does well on leash.  Blanca is not suited to apartment/condo or townhome living.  Blanca is spayed, up to date on shots, heart worm negative and microchipped.  If you want to meet Blanca, please fill out our online application HERE or https://www.lovepawspg.org/ and email Kim at KLarimerLovepaws@gmail.com  Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Meet Rocko! This rambunctious and funny pup is ready to be your forever pal. He loves walks, playing fetch, and gnawing on doggo-safe toys and, most of all, he loves to be by your side. This handsome guy is house-trained, crate-trained, and mostly leash-trained, though sometimes he still finds that a little confusing. Rocko is still a puppy and sometimes forgets all the manners he has learned, so he will need reminders and training to help him be the goodest boy. While Rocko is not aggressive toward other dogs or cats, he is extremely forward and assertive and will need to work on proper socialization and manners around other animals. Due to his puppy energy and exuberance, Rocko would do best with a family who has had a puppy before and have older children.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Navy is an approximately 1 year old black and white male Pitbull (Staffordshire Bull Terrier).  He weighs almost 40 lbs, and is yet to be neutered.  He is shy initially but turns out to be a very sweet boy once he gets to know you.  He doesn't mind sharing his food and toys.  Navy knows the sit command and is an eager learner who will greatly benefit from further training.  He loves to climb up on your lap and to get belly rubs.  Navy is curious but a bit cautious and does well with slow introductions to new pals.  Navy was a stray so not much background information is available, but given his sweet disposition, he would make a nice addition to a family who is willing to train him and give him lots of love.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.
