Story
Odin is 7 years old and a well behaved dog. We have three dogs including him and just had an incident when a rover watched him. He is now aggressive towards one of our other dogs but not the other. He was always good around cats, dogs, and children but can’t be around our one dog now without be long aggressive. We don’t want to put him for adoption but have no other option with his aggressiveness in the household now. He likes to lay on the couch and sleep in bed with us. Fully trained to go outside and listen to commands.

Story
Sadie is 6 years old, naturally calm but does still have puppy energy when she goes to the park. She is a timid dog and is shy around strangers whether 4 legged or 2 legged. She enjoys a lazy Sunday as well as walking a 5K with her human. Sadie is very loyal and once she builds that bond she will be glued to you. Would be best suited in a household that is stable and quiet with similar sized dogs. She sometimes has anxiety when in new situations.

Story
Theo is neutered, microchipped, and up to date on all vaccines. He weighs around 65 lbs. he’s a lab/husky mix and has a beautiful coat. He’s house trained and knows basic commands (sit, lay down, come). He loves being outside and going to dog parks. He has great energy and would make a fantastic hiking buddy. He is the sweetest, most loving dog. Loves to cuddle and be with people. Dog sitters have always complimented how sweet he is. He’s good with other dogs and great with kids. He loves all the attention! He is very loyal and will bond deeply with the right person/family. What Theo needs in a new home: A family or individual who can give him the attention and love he deserves, A yard to run around in, or someone who is active outdoors so he can get plenty of exercise. He will come with food and water bowls, toys, his bed, leash, collar, and an almost brand new large kennel.

Story
I am looking for a caring home for my 13-year-old Peekapoo. She is up to date on immunizations, fixed, and has a sweet, affectionate personality. She is a relaxed, low-energy companion who enjoys lounging on a comfy bed or rug. She is house-trained but cannot be crated. She gets along with other dogs but prefers a calm environment without small children. She enjoys running in open spaces but does not prefer walks due to joint issues in her right hind leg. If you are looking for a loving, low-maintenance companion, she would be a great fit. Please reach out if you’re interested or have any questions. A small rehoming fee may apply.
