Meet Hiway Patrol and Jinx (Bonded Pair)


We are Hiway Patrol (aka Huey) and Jinx. We are bonded brothers and need to stay together. We become depressed if we are separated. We both enjoy playing with each other and sometimes get rambunctious. While we enjoy going for walks with the humans, we do need an area where we can run free and chase each other. This is why we must have a home with a fenced yard (minimum 5 feet tall) so we have a safe place to play. Because we are shy and don’t always come when called, we are not yet ready to go to the dog park.

We do currently live in a home with cats. However, we do like to chase the cats and stop only when the humans correct us. For this reason, it would probably be best if we live in a cat free home.


Huey: If you look up the word “Sweet” in the dictionary, you will see my picture. I love to be loved. If you pet my ears and talk baby talk to me, I will give you kisses all day long.

I’m shy when I first meet people but I usually come out of my shell after 3 or 4 days. I love to spend time outdoors and I enjoy playing with squeaky toys and chewing on tuggy ropes and dental toys.

Any time any of the other puppies in the house are stressed, I’m there to watch over them. I care and want to make sure that everyone is happy and safe. I am happiest when I am by my human’s side. If you take me for walks and car rides, you will make my day.



Jinx: I am a shy boy and I am learning to come out of my shell. If you adopt me, please understand that I am initially cautious and unsure of new people and will take a few months to adjust in a new home. I’ve been with my foster family long enough that most of the time I relax around them and let them slowly approach me.

I enjoy being pet on my ears and my rear end, and I lean into the humans when I am able to drop my apprehension and appreciate the attention I am receiving.

I also enjoy playing with my brother and tossing around stuffed toys. At Christmas time, I liked going to the Holly Jolly Lights – they are fun to look at.

If you have the patience to allow me a few months to adjust to you and my new surroundings, I promise you, I am worth the wait
