Story
Took in from someone that needed to get rid of him but my roommates moved out and I just can't give him the time or attention he needs. He is a young dog, guessing between 1-2yrs old. He is very loving, play nibbles but has never bit anyone or any other animals. He does require a lot of attention and training as he is still young. He does have a tendency to jump but that's all. He is leash and crate trained. Not completely house trained yet though. Just looking to find him a really loving home with some space to run.

Story
Tula is a 25lb mix, about 7.5yrs. Ive had her since she was about 8mos and LOVE her. But I moved (for my health) and she keeps getting out of my not well fenced yard and I cant afford new fence. For her safety Im looking for a new home. She's NEVER been an escape artist before, doesnt go far. She loves people, is dog selective but loves to play with doggie friends. My other two, both Collies, wont play with her and she is bored, so she gets out for fun. She needs a fenced yard to sniff & lie in the sun, and love! She lived with a cat before and did well. VERY smart and loves training. Knows some tricks. Positive reinforcement ONLY. NO SHOCK, PRONG, CHOKE COLLARS, NO CESAR MILLAN FANS. Pros: cuddly, smart, friendly, low shed, good with dogs when properly introduced, healthy. If you have a yard, she only needs one walk per day. Comes with supplies, coats, up to date on shots. Cons: Can be nervous around new dogs but easy to work with. She is an absolute doll and you will love her!

Story
I welcomed Hiro into my life from a family who, sadly, had to move overseas and couldn’t take him along. Hiro is a spirited 6-year-old German Shepherd with boundless energy, a wonderful personality, and a truly kind heart. He thrives in an environment where he has plenty of space to explore and play. Ideally, Hiro’s new home would include a large, enclosed yard where he can run to his heart’s content. He’ll do best with an active and energetic companion who can match his zest for life and provide him with the love and attention he deserves.

Story
🌟 Meet Buddy – Our Gentle Giant in Need of a Home 🌟 Buddy is a sweet, laid-back, 7-year-old, 70-pound bear coat Chinese Shar Pei who’s been part of our family since he was a puppy. Sadly, his dad recently passed away, and this "big ham" is now in need of a loving home. Buddy’s favorite activities include sleeping in, loafing around the house, and being close to the people he trusts. He’s quiet, protective, and housebroken, but he’s also heartbroken right now and needs someone to spoil him like his dad and uncle used to. He does have minor health needs: 💊 Skin allergies are managed with Apoquel medication. 👂 Ear care is important due to his breed. Buddy has never lived with other animals, but he’s been curious (and a bit indifferent) when he’s seen dogs and cats, so he may adjust with proper introductions. If you’re looking for a loyal, low-maintenance companion who loves to loaf and be adored, Buddy might be the perfect fit for your family! 🐾
