FOXY
4 years old, Shiba Inu Mix
A sensitive guy who came to us from a difficult past. He has lived with many other dogs before, but very little of his life was spent around humans. Because of that, he is still learning what it means to trust people and how to feel safe in a home. He has been learning about leashed walking, the outdoors, and recognizing humans as friends. Do you have a confident dog who could be Foxy’s best teacher and friend? If so, you might be the perfect match. Photos courtesy of Soul Friends Fur-tography

BLIX
4 years old, Pittie Mix
Blix is a sweet, playful guy who dreams of a home where he can spend time with his people, play to his heart’s content, and soak up all the love he deserves. And let’s not forget his true love: treats! They work wonders in helping him with his training. Blix has successfully socialized with other animals, but since he’s a big, strong boy who loves to run and play, his future companions should be comfortable with his size and energy levels.
