Manny's Story

Manny the Majestic Goofball! <br/><br/>7/2026 estimated at 4 years old <br/><br/>Manifesting a forever home for Manny <br/>Day 365<br/><br/>Not one single application in an entire year... not one. <br/><br/>Manny, we love this guy BIG. We just want him to have the home and family he deserves. <br/><br/>Manny is a water boy! He absolutely loves the water and recently discovered something even better... having his people get in with him! There is nothing better than splashing around and sharing those moments with someone you love. <br/><br/>Manny does well with other dogs (we recommend a dog around his same size), or he would also be perfectly happy as your one and only! A home with children who are a little older and understand his size would be best.<br/><br/>We have worked so hard with Manny on his toy guarding, and look at this smart boy now — he is learning to drop it for us! This guy is proof that patience, love, and consistency make such a difference.<br/><br/>This handsome guy knows sit, touch, and down. He is treat motivated, loves his belly rubs, and is always ready to show you what a good boy he is.<br/><br/>Manny isnt looking for anything fancy... just a forever home where he can be loved, continue learning, and finally know what it feels like to belong.<br/><br/>We cannot let this sweet boy spend his whole life in boarding. He has so much love to give and so many fun memories waiting to be made.<br/><br/>Please share, share, SHARE! Lets help Manny find his people. <br/><br/> Boarding in Jefferson City, MO<br/>https://journeyhomegsd.org/<br/><br/>Manny just wanted to stop by and remind everyone that he is, in fact, a total catch. Like... Olympic-level catch — especially when theres a ball involved! <br/><br/>This big, handsome Husky mix has been waiting very patiently for his forever home, and hes dreaming of the day his person finally finds him. Could that be you?<br/><br/> Why Manny Should Be on Your List: <br/><br/> Dog-friendly! Manny has met Sly multiple times on leash, and these two have basically decided theyre bros.<br/><br/> Professional belly-rub connoisseur — Manny knows the good stuff and isnt shy about asking for it!<br/><br/> Goofy, lovable, and full of personality — hes the perfect mix of silly chaos and cuddle buddy.<br/><br/> He has manners! Manny knows his basics and is eager to please.<br/><br/> Treat motivated — he believes snacks are the key to friendship (and honestly, hes not wrong!).<br/><br/> Ball obsessed? Absolutely! Manny finds a toy he loves and sometimes thinks its his personal Hope Diamond. But heres the amazing part... look how far he has come! Weve been working on the drop it game with a little bait-and-switch magic, and Manny has learned to let us take the ball, throw it again, and keep the fun going. Thats HUGE progress!<br/><br/> Fetch is his happy place! Hell play hard, then settle in like the king he is, relaxing with his favorite toy.<br/><br/>Manny is a big guy with a big personality, so we want to make sure we find the perfect fit for him. Manny would probably do best in a home where he is the only dog or with another dog closer to his size. Because of his size and goofy energy, we also think he would do best with older children who can understand and respect a big, playful guy like Manny.<br/><br/>Manny truly is the whole package — sweetness, silliness, loyalty, and a heart that has been waiting far too long for the right human.<br/><br/>After all this time, we know Mannys family is out there. Someone is missing this amazing boy, and he is waiting for you. <br/><br/>Lets help Manny find the forever home hes been wishing for.
