Story
Scar and his brother, Simba, are two sweet boys we've been fostering for 7 months. We intended to be their forever family, but the young baby we are in the process of adopting has proven to be extremely allergic to the boys. Scar is the larger brother of the two, weighing around 70 lbs. He LOVES to cuddle while pretending to be the petite lap dog he sees himself as. He will snuggle up to you without delay and snore like a baby bear. We will include any food, crates, toys, feeders, supplies, and grooming tools we have for him/them. Scar eats once a day. Dry + Wet food mix. (Though, he'll eat anything) We’d love to keep the brothers together, but the priority is to find a good home for this cuddle bug asap! He will be your best friend and cutest shadow!

Story
Simba and his brother, Scar, are two sweet boys we've been fostering for 7 months. We intended to be their forever family, but the young baby we are in the process of adopting has proven to be extremely allergic to the boys. Simba is the smaller brother of the two, weighing about 60 lbs. He is very relaxed when hanging around the house. He'll find a comfy spot, cross his paws, and enjoy his surroundings. He's a big fan of squeaky toys and will play tug-of-war with you for hours if you let him. We will include any food, crates, toys, feeders, supplies, and grooming tools we have for him/them. Simba eats once a day. Dry + Wet food mix. He is not the pickiest eater, but he will demand that any dry food be moistened to his satisfaction. :D We’d love to keep the brothers together, but the priority is to find a good home for this little gentleman asap! He will be your best friend and cutest shadow!

Story
Simba and Scar are two sweet, affectionate boys who have been through quite a journey together! They're looking for a loving home where they can continue to thrive, and their story is so heartwarming. Since they’ve been through a lot, it’s wonderful that they’re house-trained, good with children, and comfortable with crates. While it would be amazing for them to stay together, it’s reassuring to know they’d adjust if necessary. I will post separate posts in the event they are rehomed separately.

Story
She is a good dog, we found her roaming in the woods and believe she had been dumped. We agreed to take her in to get her healthy, vaccinated and spayed. She is great with dogs cats and children. She does have severe separation anxiety that causes her to tear up bedding and being in a kennel can cause her more harm than good. We are hoping to find her a good home and family that has more time to offer her more freedom throughout the day than my wife and i can give her.

Story
Reese is a beautiful 5year old girl. We got her from a shelter in Brandon, Mississippi. My son is now in college and I recently took a job transfer out of state. My son lives on campus. We love Reese and hate to put her up for adoption but she needs a nice home with a fenced yard. Reese loves to run and play. We are heartbroken but only have a few options.
