Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Hello, I'm Kung Fu Panda! Named for my cute mask, obviously I'm a sweet and fun 3 year old heeler mix looking for an active family. I’m not crazy or anything, but I do have a good amount of energy and I do best when I have structure & regular activity. I make an excellent jogging partner, anyone on the track team?! I’d be happy to help you practice! I’m potty trained & still working on my crating skills. I don’t like to be left alone for long periods of time. It would be awesome if my family stayed home more. I need a family that has older kids (15+years old). I never know what younger kids will do & it scares me. I’m a real lover, and am a hog when it comes to my people’s attention. I don't want any fur siblings, just me & only me is how I like it. But don’t worry, I’ll give you so many cuddles you’ll never miss having another animal! I’m crazy smart and I’m super lucky to have an incredible foster mom who’s taught me lots of stuff. I’ve got my basic obedience down and I have some sweet party tricks like waving and shaking hands. I’m sure to impress your friends. If you think you could be the family for me I’d love to meet you!

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Hi there, I’m Fantome Nyx! I’m a 2.5 year old Belgian Malinois, the kind of dog you see doing all that cool stuff in the movies. My breed is incredibly smart and able! Some of my kind can climb walls and walk on tightropes! We’re agile and hard working as a whole. As for me in particular…I’ll confess, I’m not quite that talented. Don’t get me wrong, I’m smart and active! I’m just not quite suited to a real job…which is fine by me! That means I’m looking for home life, which suits me great. Now, I’m not your average pup. I don’t have the best time meeting new people. I get a bit…barky and assertive. With a confident handler, though, I do pretty well. I need a decent amount of exercise. My foster mom takes me running with her several times a week and I love that. I will also need mental stimulation – if you are looking for a pup you can do some super fun agility or GRC stuff with, I am your girl! Regular training to establish a bond between me and my new people would be recommended as well. Once I fall in love with you and I’m comfortable, I am a really great companion. I’m loyal until the end and I will love you intensely. I am good with kids, although if your kids have friends over a lot that wouldn’t be a great fit for me. I am GREAT with other dogs but not with cats. I am house trained and crate trained. I’m really ready to be a forever dog. If you think you’re ready to be my forever human please apply to meet me today at rescuerovers.org. I promise I’m worth it!   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. Hi! I'm Mac Donald. I am the sweetest, goofiest boy you'll ever meet. I love playing fetch, going on walks, and snuggling. I'm happiest when my head is in my human's lap getting pats. I'm high energy when I'm outside but the second I get inside I'm a total couch potato. I'm house trained and know basic commands like sit and shake, and I'm very smart and eager to learn more!  I am not sure how I would react to a cat or a child because I have never met one but I think I'd be great with both. However, I'd like to be the only dog in your house because I can get jealous with my toys. If you think you could be my furever home,  please go online to rescuerovers.org to fill out an application today! I can't wait to meet you  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. Hello from Cruisin Cruise. I am a brindle Chihuahua weighing in at at 11lbs. My pearly white teeth say that I am about a year old. I am neutered, microchipped and up to date on all of my shots. I have an in-operable fracture in my lower spine, therefore I drag my back legs. I do have some feeling in my rear legs and tail, and I occasionally stand and take a few steps. My foster mom has taken me to a vet for acupuncture, laser and hydrotherapy. We are all unsure if I will walk again, but the doctor seems to think I have a chance, in time. Don't worry, I don't let that hold me back. I can scoot quicker than most pups can run. I am a very happy boy, and I get along well with all of my foster fur siblings. I am crate trained, but currently need to wear a wrap/diaper. I am a bit nervous around kids, so older calmer kids would be best for me. I also need a little more care and attention than some other pups, but I sure do appreciate everything! I would need some on-going therapy and vet care. If you have a little extra time & patience and are looking for someone incredible to love, please apply to meet me at www.rescuerovers.org.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Hi, I’m Morton! My foster parents call me Morty. I am a 6 month old mix between German Shepherd and who knows what else! Foster mom says I am a smart boy and a really quick learner. Before I came here, I lived on the streets of New Mexico with all my litter mates. I was completely feral when my foster parents took me in, but with a little patience and consistency, I caught onto the way normal puppies live and learned a lot pretty darn quick. My foster mom says I’ve come so far since the first day we met and she is so proud of the pup I am today. I've got a big personality and like to talk back sometimes when mom tells me no, but she still loves me anyways. I’m extremely loyal and love my humans more than anything, cuddles are one of my favorite pastimes, and mom says I am sheer entertainment. I weigh 40 lbs, shed lightly, and am fairly active although I love to nap a lot. I will be 60lbs or so when full grown. My ideal home would have another canine companion to play with, no kids, and no cats. Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.
