Story
I adopted Benny from a shelter and he was abused by his previous owner. Since coming into our home he has done very well and has been very trainable. He is well mannered and loving. He is no longer afraid and has adjusted well. Unfortunately my shepherd is attached to me so much she will not accept Benny and we have to keep them separated. He doesn't mind her but she will not accept him. He gets along well with my little terrier fine. He is kennel trained but doesn't need to be in one he doesn't tear anything up or get into stuff. He just wants to be part of the family and play with his toys, but I have to kennel him at times because of my other dog. I don't want to rehome him but feel I need to for him to thrive and have the best life. He is an excellent boy. He deserves a better situation than what I can do for him right now. I want the best possible outcome for him he deserves it from everything he has went through. He shows no aggression whatsoever just love. Fully vetted.

Story
Axel is 6 year old miniature schnauzer, we got him when he was a puppy and we have been his only owners and all he’s ever known. We have four children and he loves them all. He can be nervous and grumpy at times, especially around new people or kids. He is very loyal and loving to his family though and does good once he warms up to new people. We have been put in a situation where we live and sadly, cannot have him here with us. We are sad to have to let him go, but are trusting we will find him an another loving home.

Story
Adopter must meet following criteria: 1. Experience with dogs 2. Retired/ work from home 3. No pets or small children in home 4. Willingness/ patience to give Shade time to adjust to new home 5. Must have a fenced yard Shade is the most loving dog I have ever had. I’m only rehoming her because she’s become so attached to me that she has become jealous and aggressive towards my 4 smaller dogs. She loves to cuddle but enjoys time lounging in her open crate or her dog bed-anywhere near her person! She has always slept in a closed crate at night (because of the smaller dogs) and has never made a peep! She rides well. She’s not been around strange dogs so she gets very excited at the vet’s office. She’s never been destructive in the house, but has brought in a tree limb thru the doggie door! She likes to chase birds as they fly and squirrels as they run along the fence. She’s never dug a hole! She’s content giving her love to her human. She’s had my heart. Will you give her yours?
