Story
Hutch is a 45 lb border collie mix. He is a quick learner who is extremely food motivated and knows sit, lie down, settle, come, and heel. His ideal owners would be willing to take him on walks/runs and have a fenced in yard. He is potty trained and roams freely in the house without accidents. He is occasionally reactive to other dogs (especially larger dogs) and we have found that a gentle leader leash will help direct his attention back to you. Needs a proper introduction to dogs, especially those similar or larger in size. Neutered and up to date on all vaccinations and flea treatment. He currently lives with two cats and one smaller dog, and steers clear of the cats. Loves head scratches and belly rubs. When we adopted him he had severe separation anxiety and had frequent accidents in the house. We were told he was previously a “farm dog” and lived with two other dogs and children.

Story
King is an ESA. He will be 4 years old on December 7th. He is a great dog who loves kids. He is not fond of dogs and not sure about cats. HE knows sit, lay down, shake n stay. I love him very much n will miss him when he goes so I am hoping wherever he does go that I can possibly visit once in a while. If not, I truly understand. I have lung disease and my breathing is getting worse so I am unable to walk him because he is a puller. I am looking for a good home for him that preferably has a yard for him to get exercise, someone that will walk him and love him like he deserves to be loved. He is amazing❤️

Good with kids, Good with dogs, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Blazer was left in our care as his previous owners could not care for him due to living situation. Unfortunately they did not return for him. He's grown on us over the 9 months we've had him. We think he's about a year and a half old. We've discussed keeping him, but ultimately he was never ours to begin with. He's kennel trained and never has accidents. Hoping someone with a large area of land would take him in as I feel he'd love the freedom. He's a very sweet and loving boy and not extremely hyper. Also gets along with children and other dogs as far as we've seen. I hope he finds a family that will love him unconditionally and give him the attention he deserves.

Story
Hi, I'm Dolce! I'm 9 1/2 years old and weigh 40-44 lbs. I have one blue eye and one brown eye. I absolutley love to snuggle. My favorite game is fetching a tennis ball. I love kids 8 years old and up (I've no experience with kids younger than that). I'm good with other dogs. I prefer a cat-free home and lots of play time with my family. I don't chase or hunt cats, I just do not want them in my personal bubble. I spend way too much time in my kennel. I am lonely. I deserve to live the fullest and best life I can. I'm a very loving, sweet, and playful girl.
