We call this guy "Champ" aka ""Mr Wiggles". It's literally impossible to get a still frame of this dude, so belly rubs was a must! He's young, about a year old. Still intact. Full of young, happy, socialized energy! He just wants to GO GO GO! Do you blame him? Let's help him get out and spread the word. Videos will be in the comments.

5 months in our care!

Guys! Let me introduce you to my personal favorite (don’t tell the others)! Miss Marley is the twin to my own dog, and if I could adopt an army of them, I would!

She’s an older lady who just wants to lounge and cuddle, she’s goofy and will surely brighten your day.

She’s bound to knock your socks off with her confidence and personality. She’s great on a leash!

This old lady just needs a soft place to land, and spend her days in the sun with you.

She’s done well with some staff pets, but that being said she’s not actually been been temperament tested with dogs/cats/kids.

Please contact Riverton Animal Control at #801-208-3168 and give them the case number above, to meet/find out more about them!

A meet and greet with potential family/housemates can be set up through Animal Control.

Name: Cyper
Case #: 0723-12176
Age: ~1yr
S*x: intact male

(More photos/videos in the comments!)

Cyper has been with us since he was roughly 8 weeks old. We’ve had him in our care for 11 MONTHS now. He’s been posted before, and we’ve sought rescue with no success. We really want to see him go!

This young man still has his puppy energy, but he is so well mannered! Cyper has lived with us for ages and has been able to learn routine well! He knows how to sit! Is nice on a leash! And does great in the kennel!

Cyper is confident and happy, he would make a spectacular addition to a household. Bringing nothing but joy with him!

He’s done well with staff pets, but that being said, has not actually been been temperament tested with dogs/cats/kids.

S*x: intact male

12 MONTHS in our care!! Get him adopted!

Cookie Monster is just like his namesake, a fiend for a snack! Very food motivated, and would likely do well with training!!

He’s a big fan of digging, and tries to get out of the fence, so some supervision until trusted is a must. He’s a dog who’s made to do something, and would do well with brain games, or outdoor activity!

Cookie Monster has been affectionate with kennel staff, and after a few treats he does well with any others who pass by!

They’ve not been been temperament tested with dogs/cats/kids.

A sweetheart among men!! This guy just wants affection. He melts like butter when you love on him (and I’m sure your heart will melt too!).

C**t is easy going, loves to play, and really is just a heartthrob. If you’re looking to add a new man into your life this summer, I suggest checking out C**t!

RESCUED

At risk!! Needs adoption or rescue asap!!

Name: Chipmunk
Case #: 0823-14760
Age: ~3yrs
S*x: Neutered Male

(More photos/videos in the comments!)

NEEDS ADOPTION/RESCUE ASAP! 10 months in the kennel has started to take a turn for Chipmunk. Chipmunk began self traumatizing by running head first into his kennel doors. He was removed from the space and placed in our hospital to live (and receive treatment) for sometime. Since being back in the kennel space he is depressed. Spending most of his day just sitting quietly, disinterested.

Every single staff member comments about how “this is going to be a great dog in a home.”
Chipmunk is incredibly well mannered on his leash, loves to self entertain with a stuffed animal or a tennis ball, and has a personality of an angel. Chipmunk knows how to sit and shake!

Chipmunk is NOT kennel trained, though we believe it’s behavioral (due to hating it here!).

I would not recommend a home with cats! Would be cautious with any small animal, as he’s exhibited some prey drive.

He’s been friendly in passing with dogs, and gives off decent body language when he’s in the same room as them. All that being said, they’ve not been temperament tested with dogs/cats/kids.

Name: Beans
Case #: 1123-21401
Age: ~1.5yrs
S*x: male - intact

(More photos/videos in the comments!)

7 months in our care! Someone get this boy a home!

This young man is a sucker for some attention, be that in the form of affection or in the form of treats! With how food motivated he is, training should be an activity you can manage well!

Being a young man, he’s still full of that puppy energy! But don’t let it go to waste, he’s ready to learn and please!

Beans was a fearful boy when he first came in. He’s still unsure about the original staff members who did his intake, but has grown to love the kennel staff and other treatment members he passes.

He’s progressively gotten better in the kennel environment, and has adapted to routine slowly but well!

They’ve not been been temperament tested with dogs/cats/kids.

S*x: female - assumed intact

(More photos/videos in comments!)

This girl needs to go! She’s spent 12 months in our care!

Isles came in as a pair, her mate has long since been adopted and we’d love to see the same fate for this girly. When she was first with us, she was extremely stressed in the kennel environment and was a huge flight risk. She was transitioned out of the dog boarding space, and into an area of cat boarding. Since the change, she’s made a 180 - calm, relaxed and does very well in the space. We presume she is house/kennel trained, as she doesn’t have accidents in her kennel.

Isle’s is incredible on her leash (what a feat for her breed!!) and loves a sun filled walk. She knows commands (sit, lay, shake) and has done well picking up routine!

She’s not been temperament tested with dogs/cats/children. Has done well non directly with cats though. She’s done well with kennel and treatment staff.

Name: Emily Spinach
Case #: 1123-20718
Age: ~2yrs
S*x: female - assumed intact

(More photos/videos in comments!)

We need to get this girl out of here! She’s been residing in our care for 7 MONTHS now.

They say curiosity killed the cat, but they didn’t say it killed Emily Spinach.
Similar to her namesake, she’s a gal Alice Roosevelt would have ran rampant with!

Let me tell you about Emily Spinach, this girl is a charm but don’t let that fool you. She’s ~30lbs of pure drive and curiosity! This is a dog who wants to go! That being said; with or without you. Emily Spinach is a master at climbing fences, and will need to be kept leashed until trusted. I imagine she would do well in a number of different sports, or activities.
Kennel staff have said she’s an affectionate gal, and has the energy to keep it going all day long.
She’s compact, and ready to roll. If you’re looking for your next adventure buddy, come meet Emily!

She’s not been evaluated with other dogs/cats/kids, but has done well with staff.

At risk!! Needs adoption or rescue asap!!

Name: Cinder
Case #: 0223-2956
Age: ~3yr
S*x: Female - assumed intact

Cinder desperately needs adoption or rescue. She has been in our care for 16 MONTHS as of tomorrow.

A staff favorite and certified “personal shadow” Cinder is sure to impress you with her easy going attitude and incredible leash manners.
This gal is looking for someone who loves to sun bathe and snuggle! She loves hanging out, outside and enjoying the scenery! If you’re looking for a new friend to relax and find companionship with, I think this may be your gal!

She has not been temperament tested with other dogs/cats. But resides in the kennel environment well.
Unsure of temperament with children. But has done well with staff.
