Story
Buddy is a very well behaved dog that has been in our family since he was a few months old. His "dad"/owner has recently passed away so Buddy is in need of a good home, lots of love, and companionship. He's about 7 years old now, about 70 pounds, and is a "bear coat Chinese shar pei". Buddy is a super sweet dog, but has some minor health concerns that would most likely be resolved with proper care. He suffers from skin allergies, so he's become reliant on his "apoquel" medicine - it seems to clear things up when given consistently. A longer-term solution was never discussed at the vet. Also, because of his breed and lack of cleanings, his ears have become a big area of concern. Prior to this year, he was used to daily walks and expressed zoomies often! He's "house broken" and follows basic commands. Overall, Buddy will be an amazing addition to the right person/family and just needs a little extra care to get him back to feeling like himself again. ❤️‍🩹

Story
My dog name is Diesil. He is 2 years and will be 3 on December 24. He is a sweet boy, loving and loves cuddle and is a big teddy bear. I am looking for a loving family that will give him the time and attention. Also a home that has a backyard where he can get out his energy and have another pet in the home. I am not able to provide that for him and he deserves it.

Story
Ted is my 5 year old netherland dwarf rabbit. We recently moved in with a cat and unfortunately my rabbit and the cat are not getting along. The most ideal home would be a quiet home without other pets or a home with a separate room away from other pets. Upon adoption he will come with hay and pellets.
