I got myself into hot water by wrecking the house when I was alone too long! I had been adopted lickety-split, but returned for investigating closed drawers, opening doors and knocking the TV over. We were all sad about it and now I need a new home ... one where there is a person around who can give me more time and exercise.
With my compact size – about 40 lbs – and beautiful features, I captivate many people, but the tomboy in me doesn’t allow me to be a couch potato. At around 3 - 4 years old, I’m a real prize being housebroken, sitting on command, looking my handlers in the eyes and being treat-oriented for ease of training. I’ve been at a busy event greeting lots of people. My ideal family would be with active adults and older children. I’m not too fond of other dogs up close and personal, but mostly I just ignore them. Once in a while when walking, I will put on the brakes and stop in place. The walkers have caught on to this and toss treats a few feet ahead of me to get me going again. They give me lots of attention, but it can’t compare to a real home, so please come meet me and let me show you my stuff. I was named Nila when I first got here. My first adopters called me Sadie. You can give me any name you want and we can call it a fresh start.

I’ve had a few different names and some tough breaks, too. I had a family and my own little boy to look after, but we lost our home and were all living in a car. Now I’m in a kennel waiting for another family to ask me to join their pack. I was called Kong in my past life, but was renamed Conjure when I came to the shelter. Some call me Conjure and others call me Kongo. I don’t always answer to those names but I always answer to kissing sounds with kisses for those who spend time with me, walk me and pet me.
I’m a middle-aged, pot-bellied bulldog mix with a love for people and quick with a smile. I was a “comfort pet” for my family’s 8-year-old boy and I miss him. I am housebroken and prefer to have company most of the time. I would make a great companion for senior people who want a warm, furry head in their lap to stroke, or a walking buddy. I have a few moves that showcase my “big baby” side which has earned me a lot of coveted time with volunteers who find me irresistible. Come see for yourself.

Sweet is the word that is most used to describe
me. Photogenic, not so much! Yet up close, my dark freckles show through
my snow-white coat and both of my super-soft ears are a lovely taupe
color that gives me a truly unique look. I’m one of many bully mixes, most likely an American bull dog mix but much smaller in stature. I’m a dream walker, rarely pulling and always waiting for my next queue. I sit for treats and take them gently from hands. As my excitement increases, I tend to want to jump up and give kisses, but have been rebuffed in the name of good manners. I like everyone I meet...adults and kids alike, and I would prefer to lap up all their love myself rather than share it with another dog. I’m a great passenger on car rides. It’s really fun! How about you drive on over and take me for a spin?

I left as an 8-month-old pup and was returned
as a 3-year-old. My owner explained that their lifestyle had changed and
they no longer could give me the attention I needed so here I am on the
market again. I was adopted briefly but was returned yet again. Although they gushed about what a good dog I was — housebroken and affectionate — they were exasperated by my “escaping” several times and did not feel that they could give me enough exercise so that I wasn’t bored and looking for other things to do. I’ve met and played with many other dogs. Being a big boy and rather rambunctious, I’m best matched with another dog who is up for some bouncing around. Don’t confuse me for a couch potato even though I hang out and wag my tail soaking up attention. I love to be outside, walking just as much and need an owner who is active and around so that I won’t be lonely. The volunteers think I rock! So roll on in and ask to meet Rocco.

If you’re looking for a Hero, I’m looking for a
savior. Despite the many times I have been shown to potential adopters,
there always seems to be a reason why they pass me up and choose a
different dog or no dog at all. I have all the qualities of a fine companion...I’m playful and friendly with people of all ages. I am very treat-driven and will sit on a dime for the most meager of offerings. I love tennis balls and will trade for a reward. I can also catch them in mid-air if you aim a little and give me a heads-up! I’m approximately 2 years old, have that wide bulldog head, the brindle coat of a boxer, and weigh about 60 lbs. Although I am not fond of other dogs, for the most part I ignore them and am perfectly willing to turn around and walk away from them. I am much improved walking on leash and I look forward to my walks with the volunteers. My mouth is gentle when taking treats and I love attention returning the affection the volunteers shower on me with kisses to their chins. There is no question that you would be my Hero if you made me your Hero.

When it’s time to “Buddy Up” I hope you think of me. Having the most popular name for a dog has gotten me nowhere so far. I was in a foster home for a few months but my foster mom worked long hours and I was alone too much. I’m very good company — social, outgoing and loyal to a fault. Some other great qualities I possess include being potty-trained and walking well on leash.
There are some dogs I like and others I tolerate but I won’t be pulling your arm out to lunge at them. I don’t care that much. I can even live peaceably with a cat if the situation calls for it. I’m very flexible! Specifically, I am your basic, mid-size, middle-age, beagle-boxer mix with a little extra padding that I’m hoping to walk off. Maybe we can do that together.
