Story
Kumar came to the rescue as an owner surrender. He was very cautious of strangers at first. He does sometimes still growl when he first meets you, but it is not out of aggression, he is just scared at first. He loves attention and he loves to play after he knows you. He still has a lot of puppy in him and is energetic, so he needs room to run. He would need a home without small children because of his energy level. He has lots of love to give someone!

Jazzy is a female American Bulldog mix that is around a year old. She came to the rescue because her owner could not care for her, and she needed emergency medical attention. She had surgery to remove a corn cob that was blocking her colon, but she is doing very well now. She doesn’t seem to like other dogs or cats and will need to be the only dog in the home. She is good with people and likes everyone she has encountered here. She is up to date on vaccinations, spayed and microchipped. Jazzy needs to find a home with people who will give her all the love she deserves.

Story
I’ve had Bentley and Mia since they were 8 weeks old. I got them from two different farms. Bentley is 4 months older, he turned 5 on 10/26 and Mia will turn 5 on 1/5. I got a divorce and had to move to a small house and between them and my 2 year old there’s just not enough space. They love being inside with their people but love hanging out outside on the deck as well. They are both great dogs and I’ve tried making it work here with them because I want more than anything to keep them but they deserve the best and I can’t give that to them anymore. Bentley is my lover boy, he’s so sweet and loving and such a cuddle bug. Mia is my lazy nap buddy. Whether it’s laying on the couch or laying in a dirt spot outside you can always find her napping somewhere
