Featured Dog

Ralph

Cute little Ralph was found several months ago along Highway 12 between Aberdeen and Groton, and brought to AAHS by a good samaritan.  Poor little bubby was adopted out but came back when the family had some changes.  He's being a good sport about it, but we know he really wants a home to call his own. 

He is a 2-3 year old terrier mix.  He is a ball of energy.  He would do best with older children due to his excitability.  He could do alright with dogs as long as there is a proper introduction.  He  doesn't seem to be fond of cats.  He loves to go for rides and to go swimming in his pool.  He loves his chew toys and playing ball.  Quite the little guy!  He is houstrained as long as there is a routine for him to follow.

Jax

4 year old Pug mix.  He loves to fetch and loves attention.  He does not like loud voices.  He is house trained and listens very well.  He likes to go for car rides and walks and loves his bath.  Jax is a sweetheart.

Jezebel

3 year old heeler mix.  She came in with Traeh. We don't know a lot about her yet, other than she seems friendly and enjoys playing catch all day long.  She never gets tired.  She does have a lot of energy, so would like to be on a farm possibly or have a large back yard.  Very cool-looking dog!

Traeh

Young female shepherd mix.  She came in with Jezebel.  She is very timid but is a sweetheart!  She seems to do really well with children and walks awesome on a leash for kids as well.  She is pretty quiet and doesn't play a lot yet, but she is still new.  She just loves attention whenever she can get it!

Puppies!

10 week old puppies.  All males.  They appear to be a lab mix.  They are a bit shy but we're sure they will  become  much more outgoing and energetic as they become comfortable with people.  Stop in for a little puppy huggin' and lovin'!

Duke

5-1/2 year old Basset Hound.  He is friendly as all get out and loves attention and playing with other dogs.  He doesn't seem to mind cats too much.  He likes to go for car rides and for walks.  Duke would need to be in a crate when home alone so he doesn't have any potty accidents.  Look at those sweet eyes!

ADOPTED

Sophie

5-1/2 month old Yorkie/poo.  She is an all around puppy!  She loves one on one attention and being held is one of her favorite things!  She would do best in a home with older children.  She doesn't seem to mind other smaller dogs and we don't think she would mind cats.  She is just a bundle of joy.

Taz

1-1/2 year old small breed mix.  He is very high energy.  He would need to be an only pet as he does get a little jealous with other dogs and tries to dominate them.  He has lived with cats but doesn't seem to like that!  Taz is house trained and crate trained.  He is a very active dog and would like an active family to help him to burn off his energy in a productive way.

Sandy

Here is Sandy the wonder woman!!  She is a 10 month old yellow lab.  She was always an outside farm dog and has a lot of puppy energy so she will need either a farm or a very active family with a large area to run.  She is just so darn energetic and wants to play all the time! 

Booker

Young Boxer mix.  He came in as a stray. He is a little thin, but we are working on that.  He is very friendly and enjoys going for walks and playing with his squeaker toys.  He is coming along way in just a few days and we are still learning more about him each day. 

Lucy

2 year old husky.  She is very shy and doesn't seem to do well with men.  She seems to be alright with little kids but will need proper introduction to new things.  She is very timid and takes awhile to warm up.  She is a beautiful dog and is house trained.

ADOPTED

Oreo

Rat terrier mix born on 12-23-10.  She is a very friendly little dog.  Oreo has lived with other dogs and likes them very much.  She likes attention and going for walks.  She is frightened of loud noises and she is good at letting you know if someone comes to the door.

 

Chipper

2 year old male German Shorthaired Pointer. Rather then being a hunter he would much rather spend his afternoons hanging with his family, whether its playing outside, going for a car ride or just hanging out with the kids in the back yard. Did we also mention that he is totally housetrained?

 

Connor

Young (2-3 year old) male black lab or lab mix.  He is as sweet as can be.  He is friendly with other dogs and cats.  He seems to really like kids too!

 

Bo

Bo is a 7 month old border collie mix.  He is as sweet as they come.  He is feeling alone, as his brother just got adopted, so he is trying his best to find himself a forever home.  He is a bit timid at first but warms up quickly.  He likes his squeaker toys and other dogs are fine with him.  He would love nothing more than a place to live with lots of room.  He absolutely loves his pool time!

Lil' Joe

11 year old male Min Pin/terrier mix. Cutest little guy you may have ever seen! He is totally housetrained and loves kids and cats. He is more then happy to sleep in your bed with you or have a bed of his own. He loves to smile and hang out on your lap while you're watching tv!

 

Grizzly

Young neutered male shepherd mix.  This is one sweet, energetic boy!  He loves playing with other dogs.  He might be a bit too rambunctious for small children but should do fine with older kids.  He's smart and likes to stay busy. 

 

Champ

6 yr old yellow lab. He was kept as an outside dog. He likes to run, loves car rides/pickup rides. He knows basic obedience. He's good with other dogs (never been around cats) and he would do best in a home with no kids or older kids.

 

Kendra

2 year old lab/husky mix.  She is a beautiful sweet little gal.  She was brought in because the neighbors in the country did not like her coming over and messing with their livestock.  She would be better to live somewhere with a fence so she doesn't get into trouble.  She doesn't seem to mind other dogs but would probably do best with no cats.  She enjoys car rides and going for runs and would like an active family to match her spunkiness!

Adopted

Gunther

1 year old corgi mix.  It's a mystery to us as to why he's still with us.  He's just a perfect little guy!  He is as sweet as they come.  He loves to go on walks and play with other dogs and older children.  He does very well going for car rides.  He is house trained and awaiting his home!  How do you resist that face?!  Plese stop by the shelter and pay him a visit--you're sure to fall in love with him! 

 

Ozzy

8 year old lab mix.  He loves to go pheasant hunting whenever he can.  He is pretty well behaved and listens very well.  He always lived in a garage but never messed in there.  He really likes having his freedom to run and play and enjoys vehicle rides.  He is also crate trained.  He loves to have his ears scratched and to be loved on all day!

Cash

2 year old neutered male black lab mix.  Cash's family didn't have enough time for him.  He's been an inside/outside dog. He's good with kids, gets along with small dogs, and hasn't been around cats or big dogs. Sweetie pie!

Update: Cash is doing well with is foster family but he is still available for adoption.  Please give the shelter staff a call at 226-1200 to get more information about this beautiful boy!
