Story
We adopted Ivy from Louisville Metro Services in October. We thought she was a great fit, however, she is a very rambunctious puppy. She is about 40 lbs and does not realize her size. When she is calm, she is very sweet and loving, but when she has a lot of energy, there isn’t much stopping her. She does great going outside to potty, but is still having accidents in the house. Our family feels that she needs a family who can embrace her energy and help give her what she needs.

Story
Storm just turned 4 on 11/29/2024. She originally came from Mississippi. We are looking for someone that can give her a home full of love. She does great with kids. She doesn’t get along with other female dogs and should not be around cats either. Reason for needing to find her a new home. She is kennel trained as well. I do have a cd from her previous owner of vet records.

He is an adult dog with a lot of love and affection to give, and he is ready for his forever home. Sage is curious about people he doesn't know and for this reason he makes a loyal companion.
