Name: GuntherID: A1170663Age: 11 monthsWeight: 47 lbsSex: NeuteredDate of Arrival: 8/28/2020Adoption fee: $40Vaccinations: Has all required vaccinations Has been microchipped He is still a puppy who has lots of puppy energy.This boy LOVES waterHe likes chasing the flirt pole, playing tug, and is crazy about toys; he definitely wants to be chewing on something (no towels in the crate for him). He needs durable chewing toys! He would be a great companion for sports or exercising. He's house trainedHe is good in the crate at his foster home, but will whine firstHe will sit and wait for you to tell him to come out of the crate or to go outside, and he does well with training and picks things up pretty quickly. Foster thinks he's okay with dogs but needs slow introductions, he gets scared when dogs or strangers approach him too quickly. He appeares to be kid friendly; He is an energetic puppy who might be too much for a toddler though. Gunther will always need some kind of entertainmentNot cat friendlyHe is not an annoying barker but he'll boof/bark at strangers or weird noises when he's in the house. All in all, he is such a fun pup!!
A dog that earned the longest-term resident award at a Pittsburgh animal shelter has finally gone home for the holidays. Capone, a Labrador retriever mix, spent more than three years at Animal Friends while he waited patiently for a loving family to find him.
The 10-year-old dog lived there for 1,134 days after he was transferred from another organization. And Capone’s day finally came last week when he was officially adopted by a family who had been fostering him for a few weeks.
It breaks my heart that people don’t want adult dogs. I personally adopted my dog from the North Meck Animal Rescue who was an adult dog that stayed in the shelter for 6 months. Older dogs need love too!
