• “Howdy! I'm Calamari but you can call me Callie! I'm a German Shepherd who's 4 years old - we think. I lived in a shelter for almost a whole year before finding my forever home in 2023. I'm a very happy good girl! I love my mommy and my big human brother. I used to live with my adoptive sister, Daisy (Boxer), but then we moved. I still see Daisy a lot! She's got a cheweenie and a frenchie for siblings too. I will play with them, but I am sometimes too rough for them and need to be reminded to calm down. I love to play with rope toys and squeaky toys, but mommy always makes sure my toys are tough and not filled with stuffing. I don't eat it, but I do like to throw it everywhere. I love meeting people and running, too! I'm good in crowds of people and around little children who wanna pet me. I only wanna be around either for a little while though. When I'm bored, I can throw my toys up in the air to catch them! I love sniffing around outside and exploring every corner of new places. Sometimes I can be claustrophobic and antsy. That's cause I was abandoned in a crate before being found by Animal Control. Bc of this, I can get mad when a dog gets too close to mommy or when it seems like a dog is gonna take my food. I also don't like mirrors or dogs on leashes. Sometimes, I like playing with other dogs for a little while. I get tired of playing with other dogs kind of quick but I can play fetch with a person for a loong time. Thanks for learning a bit about me! I look forward to running in your space!!“

• “I am not a chihuahua! I was dna tested and am 16% border collie (52% chihuahua but that means nothing)!!! I am similar to my siblings and look just like them don’t you think? Anyway I am just a little dude who alone and afraid living alone on the streets of Central Phoenix without any food or water . Luckily I somehow found a nice girl who save me when I was being attacked by other dogs and dying from behind a alley dumpster. She not only held me but took me to her car and had my Grandma take me to a doctor so I could feel better and she then just fed me. Boy what some food will do for a little guy! I almost doubled my weight in just 5 months! I have been with my forever home for 5 years now and all that is in the past. For a little guy I now feel amazing! I got 3 big siblings who I will warn of danger and they come running to protect me and I am now strong and mighty. Most importantly I am loved!!!“
