Story
Where do I even start my Hilda is so beautiful with a playful personality! She will tire herself playing fetch she will bring you that ball all day .. she is a blue heeler and loves cuddles she is 2 years old and she is my oldest blue heelers daughter. This is the hardest thing I have ever done but I need Hilda to have someone that has more time for her! I have taken in two other dogs that were being neglected and I have no room for more dogs I would love someone to love her and have a yard for her or someone that is active blue heelers are very active and require excercise. Please reach out if you have any questions about Hilda thanks!

Story
Sweet baby Tonka! She’s been a family dog for almost 5 years, with 2 other dogs, cat, and kids. Unfortunately, she has made it clear that she prefers to be an only dog where she can get all of the attention. She’s really sweet with people but has developed jealousy, and food, issues with the other dogs. She would be great for any person or family who wants a loyal, snuggly, pal.

Story
This beautiful 9yo girl is the perfect balance of playful and mellow. She enjoys walks, runs, hikes, dog parks, stuffed animals, and most of all spending time with her people. While she is well past her puppy years, she has lots of love and joy to share. She is affectionate, playful, relaxed, silly, and a very gentle soul. Dakota came to when she was four years old from a loving family who no longer had the means to care for her. She has been a loyal and loving companion ever since. Unfortunately, her health has started to take a turn. She has a mass requiring surgery, and I am unable to afford its removal or provide her with the necessary aftercare. She has a long life ahead of her with the proper resources. An ideal home would have a large backyard for her to enjoy. She gets along great with other dogs but could be comfortable with only having human companions. Dakota needs a home where she isn’t left alone for long periods and someone who can keep up with her activity level.
