Knez, a 3 year old Yellow Lab, came from a kind rescuer who took in her and her two siblings from a family who could no longer care for them. Unfortunately, the family did not have any more room in their already dog filled home so two of the dogs came to us. Knez is a very sweet girl who adores her family. She is a little timid at first of new people so needs a calm adult only family or one with older kids who can help introduce her to the finer things in life!! She has been in a home with multiple dogs and cats and did fine -- played with the dogs and tugged to see the cat the first time, gave him a couple of licks of approval and ignored him ever since. She also enjoys taking walks and her toys. She is housetrained, crate trained and is learning some basic obedience.

Weight: 35lbs

 

Talk about a sweetheart! Born in March 2005, Klein is a 35 pound Sheltie mix who came to Circle Tail from a county shelter. She was in our service dog training program and even worked as a service dog for a short period of time. But she's scared of walking on tile surfaces and other non-carpeted flooring, so it precludes her from being a full-fledged service dog. She is a very sweet, loving girl who enjoys take walks and playing with her stuffed toys. She would be happy snuggling up next to you watching TV together have a fun game of fetch. She likes playing with dogs her size or bigger when introduced slowly. She is a little too into rough-housing for small breed dogs. She ignores cats. She is a little tentative with fast movements towards her so is looking for a family without young children. She needs a home that is mostly carpeted, since she hates tile/linoleum surfaces. Klein has so many wonderful qualities, she's sure her new family won't mind this quirk! This bright girl is housetrained, crate trained and has all basic and advanced obedience skills and some retrieval skills. She's eager to find a family who will keep up with her skills and challenge her mind. Klein will make a wonderful addition to her new family!

He prefers cuddling on your lap over a long game of fetch. Carlin can be a little protective of his space so will do well with teens/adults to help him learn to share.

This 2.5 year old Chocolate Lab loves to work - do you have a job for him? Maybe agility or obedience trials? He's very loyal to his person. He's a little unsure of newcomers and just needs a second to be introduced. He knows the "go say hi" command and quickly gets to know and love everyone. Miser will thrive in a family with kids over age 10 who will provide him plenty of physical and mental stimulation and exercise. He wants to chase cats outside, but lives with them inside without a problem. He doesn't like to share his toys with other dogs, so would do well with a submissive, laid back dog who doesn't care about trying to take his toys, bones, or food. For fun, Miser enjoys a good game of fetch and a long walk or jog. He's very intelligent and knows basic and advanced obedience plus service dog skills. He'd love to continue with his knowledge.

Weight: 84 lb.

 

Born around November 2006 Tonkah is a 75-80 pound German Shepherd Dog who came from another rescue for our service dog program. Though he lacked the high level of confidence needed for the job, he has plenty to make a wonderful pet. He is a very sweet, loving, medium-energy boy who enjoys hanging out with his people. He wants to be involved in whatever they do, including placing his head on the keyboard to "help" you type on on the computer!! Because he is a tad shy of new people and situations, he'd be thrilled to find an experienced Shepherd family with adults or older kids who can provide him the leadership that he wants. A household without a lot of people coming and going would be most relaxing for him as well. He loves to rough-house with dogs, so he needs a tolerant playmate. (He would prefer humans any day!!). He seems a little too fixated on cats to live with them. And just in time for the warm weather to come, Tonka loves water!! Take him to a pond, and he'll run in circles in the water. This handsome boy is housetrained, crate trained and is learning basic obedience.

Tyrone has stunningly beautiful looks with a wonderful personality to match! This friendly, affectionate boy is a result of an unplanned breeding.

Fun and energetic, Tyrone can light up a room. He is great with people - very loving! He should be fine with people of all ages, including kids. He loves other dogs and appears fine with cast too. He loves to take walks and play with his toys. He LOVES to play fetch and is great at retrieving.
