Hotchi, German shepherd mix

Hotchi is a female German shepherd mix staying at Other Mothers Animal Rescue and Rehabilitation.

Hotchi is spayed, and she has had all her shots. She's already house-trained.

Roy, rottweiler and Labrador retriever mix

Roy is a male rottweiler and Labrador retriever mix currently housed at Family Dogs New Life Shelter.

Roy is friendly as can be — he's happy to keep company with children, dogs or cats. Good news: He's already house-trained. He's already neutered and vaccinated.

Roy says:

Yes, ’tis true, good citizen—I am his Royal Hiney Roy! Wait! I mean Royal Highness Roy! Sorry, I’m still getting used to my title and duties as the new Royal Ruler of the Heart. Now I am sure you are wondering a few things: for one, shouldn’t royalty of my stature have a kingdom to rule over? Yes, yes, I should. That is where you come in. I ask that you provide me with a home and family to call my own. So if you would kindly see that I get the proper environment to expend all my unspent love.

Misha, Belgian shepherd

Misha is a sweet female Belgian shepherd dog in the care of My Way Home Dog Rescue.

Misha loves being around people, and she'd do great in a home with children. No other pets please: She is looking for home without other dogs or cats. Have no fear: She is already house-trained. She is spayed and vaccinated.

From Misha's current caretaker:

She is such a serious girl. Misha has been through a lot in her life and is looking for a quiet home where people are around a lot. Misha’s perfect home would have her person around a lot. She would love to take a walk every now and then to keep her active. She mostly needs a soft bed and a person to spend her golden years.

Roxy, husky mix

Roxy is a female husky mix in the care of My Way Home Dog Rescue.

Roxy gets along well with other dogs. Her ideal forever home would be a cat-free environment. She has had all of her shots, and she is spayed. She's already house-trained.

Here's what Roxy's friends at My Way Home Dog Rescue think of her:

 Roxy is immediately friendly and endlessly playful with other people, dogs, toys, cats and the paper cup she picked up when you weren't looking. She attempts to play with anyone even our old blind dog and our grumpy cat. She will also entertain herself running around the yard with squeaky toys you give her or the Santa hat she finds in your garage. She's an affectionate dog who wants to be part of your life.
