Zazu here! I’m a shepherd mix looking for my forever family. I know sit, shake and down, which is pretty good, my foster dad says. I almost have the potty training thing down too, I even bark to tell my foster parents when I need to potty, now! I’ve also been cat tested and I’m curious, but will be willing to love them like family with time.

Mera, coonhound and husky mix

Mera is a charming female coonhound and husky puppy in the care of Hands, Hearts and Paws.

Mera loves other dogs. She's been vaccinated.

Notes from Mera's caretakers:

Mera was rescued as a baby, adopted as a baby and returned as a young adult. Mera is good with dogs her size, no small dogs. She needs a firm but fair owner, probably not a dog for a first-time owner. She is smart, but sometimes likes to make her own choices.
