Berkley

Berkeley is an adorable, happy, and energetic 5-month old jack russell/pit bull terrier mix. He has a lot of energy and loves to play, but also is a cuddle bug. He is very sweet and learns quickly. He will do best with a very active and structured family. Berkley is also housebroken. His adoption fee is $250 and includes: spay/neuter, parvo/distemper series of shots, rabies, Bordetella, heartworm preventative while here, worming, and microchip.

Gus

Gus, a mixed German wirehaired pointer is a gorgeous boy with a huge heart. He is a perfect gentleman in a home and enjoys meeting new people. Gus has been bounced around quite a bit this past year so he is looking for a patient person who will give him time to trust his new family and settle into a new home. Gus is working on leash manners so until he masters them, he is looking for a home with a fenced-in yard. Gus has met some dogs here and while he has liked some of them, his perfect home would be as a single dog with someone who is home a lot. Gus is 5 years old and weighs about 55 pounds. His adoption fee of $195 includes one free training session with a professional trainer to help kick start his leash walking manners.

Shea

Shea, a mixed corgi hound, and her brother were adopted from North Meck Animal Rescue together in December. Shea’s brother has decided that he is not fond of her, and they have been getting into squabbles. The owners feel that it is best for Shea to go to another home where she does not have to worry about her brother. Shea is about 10 months old and weighs around 35 lbs. She is a very sweet but is nervous when she first meets you. She loves to play and will do best in an active family where she can get a lot of exercise. Shea does like children and plays well with kids. She will do best as an only dog or in a home with a playful or submissive dog. Her adoption fee is $250 and includes: spay/neuter, parvo/distemper series of shots, rabies, Bordetella, heartworm preventative while here, worming, and microchip.

Jax

Jax is a two and a half year old German Shepherd/Siberian husky mix. He is neutered, heartworm negative and house and crate trained. He is a very loving, very active young dog. Jax was in training with the police department, and though he flunked out, just that he made it to be trained shows that he has a lot of potential. He loves humans and is very smart and treat motivated. He knows sit and down and with good direction will blossom into a great companion. Jax has the makings of an amazing dog, but to get there he needs an experienced dog owner that enjoys and allows time for training and exercise far beyond the command of “sit.” He is a lot of dog and needs to learn manners, better leash skills and how to become a well behaved companion. His first few weeks in a new home will require extra time and patience while he learns. Because of his training and exercise needs he should not be placed in a home with children, nor a condo or apartment. He has had dog friends in the past and he will be able to play and be with some other dogs, but dogs closer to his size are best. Jax also loves water and should go to a home where he will have opportunities to enjoy the water on a regular basis. His adoption fee is $195 and includes: spay/ neuter, parvo/distemper series of shots, rabies, Bordetella, heartworm preventative while here, worming, and microchip.
