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.

Daisy Mae

Not good with dogs, Not good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

This is Daisy Mae. She has a crooked smile, loves butt rubs, and the best cuddle dog. She is 8 years old, birthday September 7, which makes her a senior dog but she is still full of so much life and will run around and play fetch. She can be a little reactive in the sense she barks at other dogs and unknown voices. She means well and can get use to other dogs but with time. Preferably she goes to an only dog home. She does well with my under 1 son but unknown about children older than that. The only reason we are rehoming is because my son is allergic to her and we have been advised it’s best for his health she is rehomed. This is a hard decision for us as she is part of the family. I want her to go to a good home where she will experience the same love we give her and some more :)

Story

Emma was born and adopted in 2016. She is a pure bread German Shepard from a legitimate line; she was certified upon birth. The initial adopters had trouble adapting their dogs to Emma's presence when she was a puppy, and as a result had to put her up for adoption. She was quickly adopted into a home where she was the only dog. Due to her poor experiences with other dogs at an early age, Emma is very defensive around other dogs. She was house trained and gets along very well with adults and children. She absolutely loves to play frisbee, go for walks and cuddle. Her current family is active duty military and is growing. The attention that Emma deserves and needs cannot be given to her at this time due to the owner's pregnancy and pregnancy complications, work schedules and another tiny human to take care of. We just want what's best for her because she really is just the sweetest girl. She has a lot of personality and really would make an excellent and cuddly addition to any home.
