Story
Kirby is a very sweet guy who was adopted from a shelter as a pup. He was rescued by students who found him in a school bus. He loves to go for a walk, and because of his breed he is very active and would like to go to a loving home with adoptive parents c who is willing to give him the time and energy he needed. Unfortunately because I work 2 jobs, working long hours I couldn’t give him the time and attention, I couldn’t keep him.

Story
Hello! I am looking for someone to open their home to a lovely German Shepherd mix, Osiris. The price is $0 because I value Osiris’ wellness more than money as I cannot take care of him due to other financial issues. Osiris is currently 1yr9mo, weighs 73lbs, NO health issues, and was born in Jan 2023. He is good with children and other pets, neutered, chipped and up to date on shots (I have electronic copies). I have a metal crate, cushion bed, outdoor bed, and food/treats that will go with him for free if you want them. He is house/crate trained. Characteristics: - Very chill, will occasionally have hyper moments. - Likes to cuddle and sit beside you. - Likes to play tug a war with his rope toys - Loves to go outside, but is well behaved inside (he is a sniffer, will sniff everything!) - Loves treats - Loves belly and butt rubs - Loves to meet new people. Very friendly.

Story
My furry friend deserves better than my family is going to be able to give him. We are going to be moving within the next few weeks from our family home that is on a few acres of land. Our new home will not be able to accommodate him. I was hoping for some help in finding a new home for him. Opie is a 2 year old White Lab Mix who is also a terrible guard dog. He's independent, intelligent, and curious. He loves his rub on his sides.
