Featured Pet

"Rebel"
*

Being the trainer’s “pet” at the racetrack, Rebel has an outgoing personality and is very accustomed to human interaction. Content to lean against the legs of anyone willing to show him love, he is quite the affectionate man. Surprisingly, Rebel knows how to fetch a tennis ball. When muzzled during playtime with the other dogs, he will still attempt to fetch, but is just as content to play “soccer” with the ball. In obedience class he is willing to try all things new, and is really excited about new surroundings, playgrounds, birds, flowers, etc. A handsome fawn who holds his ears in a unique position when at attention, he will make a greyt pet in home with other dogs his size and children over 6 He is not a fan of cats!

Adoption Success Story

"Rocko"

 Dear AWS,
 We wanted to write to let you know how great Rocko is doing at home.  Since adopting him in November, we've found that he does well with other dogs, all people, and even stays with us without a leash.  He loves going down to the ocean and getting his feet wet and finding shells to carry around.  He loves going to the dog park too, but he's also quite the couch potato and prefers to sleep on our bed more than his.  Thank you so much for everything you've done, we don't know what we'd do without him!
