Krypto is an outgoing, active, dog-friendly 3-year-old German shepherd mix. He loves to play, go on walks and explore the outdoors. Krypto needs a yard of his own and a family who’s up for adventures. Because he’s strong, any children in the family need to be old enough to handle his energy. To meet Krypto, email Dogadoption@nawsus.org. Visit nawsus.org.
One-year-old Maestro was found as a stray and brought indoors to safety. He’s very friendly, engaging, chatty, and will “talk” to visitors to get love and attention. He is active and likes to explore and play. Maestro is scared of dogs and needs a home without them. To meet Maestro, email catadoptions@nawsus.org. Visit nawsus.org.
