• “Love love love everyone and everything. Do like to chase small animals (Not cats, live with cat), but will chase birds (Livestock birds included), squirrels, and rabbits. Do not like men carrying backpacks. (And ONLY backpacks)“

  — Cole V.

• “Finch is an energetic, sweet 6 year old Corgi with no shortage of personality. She loves her people and her younger dog brother, but has become reactive to unknown dogs as she’s gotten older. She’s obsessed with fetch and loves to sniff!“

  — Kelly R.

• “I’m Finch, a rescued husky mix originally from TX, flown to FL by Pilots n Paws program. Because I spent the first 3 months of my life outdoors with my siblings, I’m wary of other dogs and prefer to only socialize with my brother and other known pack members. I get the zoomies and love exploring!!“

  — Amanda L.

• “Finch is a serial ladies man! He is such a charmer and a love! His darkside is that he is a serial plush toy killer.“

  — Adria L.

• “Finch is a rescue that is used to having a backyard to run but due to recent events we’re in an apartment. He is high energy and has never met a stranger. Sometimes other dogs don’t love his enthusiasm.“

  — Haley H.

• “He is a newly adopted 2 year old bully! Very sweet and a little timid.“

  — Rebecca B.

• “I love my mom, my dad, and my sister. Even if my sister only tolerates me. I get scared and overwhelmed by my emotions and my reaction is to bark and lunge. But once my emotions calm down, I am the sweetest boy. My mom is helping me build my confidence but the world is big and scary. But I sure do love belly rubs“

  — Hannah P.

• “Hi! I’m Finch, a Golden Retriever puppy with a lot of curiosity, some serious zoomies, and just a touch of land shark. I love to run, sniff, explore, chase toys, and investigate absolutely everything. I’m still learning how to tell my humans what I want without using my mouth, and they’re helping me find better ways to communicate. We’re also working on recall, check-ins, settling, and learning that I don’t have to say hello to every exciting person, dog, animal, or thing I see. My humans hope I might have what it takes for therapy work someday, so right now we’re focused on helping me grow into a confident, well-mannered, adaptable guy while still letting me be a puppy. Safe, fully fenced places where I can explore, learn, and get my zoomies out are pretty much perfect for me.“

  — Mike &.

• “Tons of energy! Loves to run and will play woth just about anything. If anything remotely exciting is going on she has to be in the middle of it.“

  — Elizabeth S.
