• “I love everybody! I love treats, balls, toys, and food! I want to play until I drop!“

  — Julia R.

• “2 year old German Shorthaired Pointer just trying to sniff all the sniffs and run through all the trails!“

  — Zoey M.

• “2 year old Treeing Walker Coonhound mix living in Baltimore with my mom and dad 💖 I love to sniff and run!“

  — Jaime C.

• “He’s such a love bug, loves everything and everyone! Loves friends and loves to run after balls. He’s such a happy little boy!“

  — Jaclyn J.

• “I am the most stubborn, lazy hound around. My favorite pastimes are sleeping and pancaking on walks. I am as sweet as they come.“

  — Diana R.

• “Hi, the shelter told me I was a sheltie mix but my mom thinks I’m a Dutch Tulip Hound mix! I am a soft sweet boy who’s a pretty good listener!“

  — Emily S.

• “Rescued in 2021 and has lots of reactivity to other animals, so requires privacy for off-leash time. He has been in a training program for about a year and his confidence is slowly improving :)“

  — Ruby S.

• “Earl is a four year old schmutt with a ton of energy! He loves to play with every pup he meets, and enjoys harassing his older brother Maverick into chasing him. He didn’t know much of anything when I adopted him earlier this year, so somewhere he can safely run around while we work on his recall is perfect!“

  — Tess M.

• “Hi, I’m Earl! I’m a 3 year old standard poodle and LOVE to run. I’m also my mom’s service dog! My favourite things include frozen sardines, toys and helping my mom. I’m unneutered so love finding good spots to sniff and pee on! My mom is very protective over me so likes to find good fenced in areas without strange dogs where I can run for a long time.“

  — Olivia W.

• “My name is Earl! I love people but a little more hesitant around other dogs. I love to run, explore, chase birds, and play with my younger (but a lot bigger) sister. I’m obsessed with any type of ball that I can get a hold of. My moms joke that I need a helmet cause sometimes I hit my head while playing cause I’m partially blind in one eye but it doesn’t slow me down“

  — Bianca R.

• “Hi I’m Earl, I’m a 2 1/2 year old Heeler X German Shepherd cross. My mom was a heeler but you would never know it as I look like a shepherd. I also act like a shepherd, which is why I need to go to sniff spots. I’m very protective of my people and not great with some dogs. Bikers, runners and skateboarders set me off and intact male dogs. I’m well trained in obedience and I’m working with a behaviourist to help me with my guardian and reactive behaviours. My parents live me to bits and I’m a sweet boy if I know you.“

  — Sarah B.
