SASHA: is an 18 month old rough-coat female. She is a smaller bred Saint & weighs in at 95 lbs. Sasha will fill out a little more. Sasha is spayed, housebroken, current on shots, & is on heartworm & flea preventative. Sasha is great with people & children, we prefer 8 years old & up. She has great house manners. Sasha came to us as a neglect case. The former owners left her outside tied up to a tree. Sasha loves to run & play. We prefer her to go to a family with a fenced yard. She walks well on the leash most of the time, but can be easily distracted. Sasha wants to a be a dominant dog. She seems to be fine with other male dogs, but tries to dominate female dogs.

Fortunately for his new family, Taz does not drool as much as most Saints! He does know a few commands such as "No" , "Sit", "Lay" & "Paw". He also walks well on the leash as long as nothing sparks his interest too much. He gets along well with dogs. He does well with cats, but he will chase them if they run. He has also been around loose chickens and has never bothered them. Taz loves to ride in the car, but thankfully he has stopped eating socks! Yes this boy did have a sock fettish!

He was also very underweight which has caused some resource protection issues with food. Trooper is a sweet soul. He is great with other dogs, large or small (although feeding will need to be done separately until he overcomes his food issues).

TANK: This sweet fellow is an almost-two-year-old roughcoat male. Tank is a tall boy who is housebroken, neutered, vaccinated, and HW-negative. But as you can see from his photo, he's missed quite a few meals in his young life. At only 115 pounds our vet thinks he needs to pack on another 30 pounds to grow into his big feet and reach his optimum weight. Poor Tank came to us dehydrated, with a urinary tract infection and an ear infection, which are responding well to antibiotic treatment. Despite this rough start, Tank's a terrific boy who's great with children of all ages. He does well with most other dogs. As for cats, he's quite curious but we don't think he'd harm a cat. Tank would like a family of his own. A fenced yard would be nice, and preference will be given to applicants with previous Saint or giant-breed experience. Got room in your heart for Tank? He promises to return your kindness a hundred-fold. 11/8/2005

Max: is a 10 year old neutered male. His owners used him for breeding and when his usefulness was up and they decided to clean out their stock and Max was tossed. The poor guy wouldn’t even respond to people when he first went into the shelter. The only stimulus he ever had in his life was eating, smelling where he was to pee, and mating. Thanks to the wonderful shelter staff Max has begun to realize there is great pleasure in being with people who enjoy his company. Max is like a toddler though pulling everything down to taste it. This morning he tasted the flowers on the table and when it fell down he ran into the hallway to hide. He LOVES people, food, and giving kisses. He has even begun to play with one of the fosters dogs. The normal lifespan of a saint Bernard is 8 to 10 years but we have been finding that saints can live up to 12 years old. It is very hard to determine how long Max has to live. We have found a mass in the abdomen but it doesn’t seem to affect him in anyway. It would be wonderful if someone could find room in their hearts to make Max’s their special pal. It would be the first time in his life that he will matter to someone. 10/27/2005

RIGGS: is a 5 year old purebred male sporting a fashionable smooth coat. This boy is awesome!! We've only had him for a short time. He was turned into a humane society in central West Virginia when his family had a change in circumstances. Riggs rides well in the car and has gotten along with others during the time he was in the shelter and during the meet-and-greet session that he had upon arrival with us. We have been told that he spent the first year of life in the house, but then got too large. After that, Riggs has been outside. As we gain further information and understanding of this boy, we'll update. Riggs will be brought up to date on his shots and placed on heartworm & flea preventative. He will also be neutered prior to placement. Don't let this boy pass you by!! 10/21/2005

Pepper: This sweet 5 year old came to us after her owners could no longer care for her. She is great with children, dogs, and cats. She can be quite timid around other dogs her size but warms up. She will require a 5-6ft fence as she likes to visit the neighbors with anything less. She loves to curl in your lap for a belly rub and loves to roll around in the grass! 10/20/2005

Mozart: is a stunningly beautiful Saint Bernard whose pictures do not do him justice. He is a very well behaved boy in the home who gets along well with other dogs and is respectful to cats. He was exceptional for the groomer and appears to know his basic commands, and has lovely leash manners. This is a very masculine boy who would do his best in a home with large dog experience as he weighs in around 130 lbs and has some filling out to do yet. 10/19/2005

Jake: Male, very big, shorthair, 1 1/2 year old, neutered Saint Bernard. Jake needs all forms of training and will need a person committed to take him to a formal obedience school. He was never socialized or trained, but wants to please he just does not know how. Since being with me he has come a long ways in a short time. Jake needs a home without small dogs, cats or small/young children, he is a bull in a china cabinet. 10/18/2005

Juggs: JUGGERNAUT aka JUGGS D.O.B. September 14, 2003 Juggs is a very sweet and lovable almost 2 year old purebred Saint Bernard. He is somewhere between a smooth and a rough coat Saint and drools VERY little. He was given up by his original owner as a puppy because he wouldn’t be contained in a 3-foot fence. The owner wanted him put to sleep but the shelter had other ideas and a young woman took him home. Sadly, she can no longer keep him as her circumstances have changed but she loves him and wants the best home possible for him. He’s a good dog, crates well, loves children, gets along with other dogs and, while very interested in cats, causes no harm and is tolerated by our felines here. He’s pretty laid back but will gladly join in if boisterous play is initiated. He loves to play tug o’ war but this is definitely an outside activity! Weighing in at 106 pounds, that can be pretty destructive. He’s good on lead, rides very well in a car with no crating, comes when called and understands ‘no’. Not a counter surfer and does not beg at mealtime and not a barker. He loves squeaky toys and is a bit of a hoarder. Sound perfect? He almost is. However, he’s still in the puppy stage and should be crated when his people aren’t at home but has not needed the crate at night. We don’t know about bathing but is a real crybaby about having nails trimmed; doesn’t care for ear cleaning and absolutely doesn’t like teeth cleaning. We’re working on that. He’s neutered, UTD on vaccinations, is on flea/tick preventive but still needs the HW check done. 10/18/2005

BERNIE: Hi, I'm Bernie and I'm a BIG handsome , lug of a dog. I am a rough-coat male estimated to be about 4.5 years old and came to HSHC as a stray. I'm a fairly easy going lad who is strong ,but there's not many reasons that I would pull on leash or get riled up, so a calmer home would suit me best. I also have particular choices in dog friends and haven't been able to find any here yet as I don't like boy dogs or dominant females, but staff thinks a low key, submissive female friend might work with me. Otherwise I'd like to be the only dog if that's ok with you! As for kids, Bernards are typically good with kids, but staff says I haven't met any here yet, so they ask that anyone interested use good judgement with me and kids. I'm a nice boy who is affectionate but not overwhelmingly so. I am fine alone and can be a bit independent at times. But maybe that's just because I haven't found my soul mate yet. 10/17/2005

SAINT: is a 2-3 year old handsome smooth-coat male. He weighs in at about 130 lbs. or so. Saint came in as a stray & nobody has claimed him. Saint has been tested with other dogs & cats, & he is absolutely wonderful with both. We believe he is also house trained, since he hasn't gone in his kennel, & when we take him outside he pees for 5 minutes! Saint has been heartworm tested & is negative. He seems to be a VERY loving big boy! Saint will be neutered & current on shots prior to adoption. 10/16/2005
