Tank the Lab Mix from Minnesota

My name is Tank and I'm from St. Cloud, MN. I'm a mix of black lab and corgi. Mommy arranged to buy a purebred corgi from a breeder. She bought toys and bones and everything. But when she went to the breeder to pick the dog up, the breeder had sold the dog to someone else. Mommy was devastated. She went straight to the Humane Society. There I was, sitting quietly in my kennel. It was love at first sight. I reminded her of her childhood dog, but shorter. Much, much shorter. They were calling me Fred, but I was quickly renamed Tank. People say I look like a midget lab, but the vet says I have a lot of classic corgi features. I love to clown around and I'm very friendly. One of my favorite things to do is chase my tail, but I can never get it, so I always give up and go for my leg instead.

Harley the Spaniel Mix from Georgia

My name is Harley and I'm a cocker spaniel/golden retriever mix from Atlanta. I was adopted from Atlanta Pet Rescue by my mommy. I love squeaky toys, but I squeak them with my nose instead of biting them like other dogs. Mommy plays softball and kickball, and I am her teams' mascot. I sit quietly by the field with my paws crossed. Everyone thinks that if I could speak, it would be in a British accent, wearing a monocle, and drinking brandy out of a sifter, because I'm so refined. Despite that fact, in the summer, Mommy always shaves my hair into a mohawk.

Zophia the Terrier Mix from New York State

My name is Zophia and I'm a scruffy terrier mix from Buffalo, NY. I was born in a junkyard in Virginia. My litter mates and I were attacked by other dogs there. We were rescued and brought to an overcrowded shelter where I was slated to be put down, but thankfully another rescue group in Pennsylvania took me in. They posted my story on the Internet, and when my parents read it, they drove all the way down from Buffalo to adopt me. I am now happy, healthy, strong, and confident. Not to mention smart -- the first command I ever learned was "put away". When I hear it, I put my toys back in their box all by myself. Also, my world revolves around my sister Kelsey. I love her so much.

Maggie Rose the Lab Mix from Massachusetts

Hi, my name is Maggie Rose and I'm a lab mix from Massachusetts. I've got some hound, pointer and mountain dog in me, too (I think). I was rescued along with my litter mates in Virginia, and Mommy adopted me within a day of my arrival in good old New England. The shelter people guessed I would grow up to be about 50 lbs. Well...I'm 105. I'm the most mellow dog in the world, and get along with everyone. When I see new people, I wag my whole body greeting them. I wag even more for people I know. We live next door to a preschool, and if I'm outside during recess time, all the kids will line up along the playground fence and call me--I run over to the fence and lean against it so that all the kids can reach through and pat me!

Oscar the Terrier Mix from Oregon

Hi, my name is Oscar and I'm a Jack Russell Terrier mix from Portland, OR. I was adopted at nearly a year old, and as my mom puts it, I was a mess. But I took to my big sister Hazel right away, so ever since then I've been referred to as Hazel's dog. She even potty trained me! When I was first adopted, I had a bad knee and had to have surgery. That's a photo of me in my cast. Mommy says I sounded like an old man shuffling in his slippers around the house when I had it on. Now I'm all better. I love to snuggle and take walks. But more than anything I love Hazel!
