Story
Bella is a very sweet dog. She is great with my two younger children and gets along well with my cat and older Pitt bull. So why do I need to re-home her? Since I purchased her, I have needed to go back to work full time and have become a single mother. She just isn't getting the attention she deserves and I feel horrible about that. I hope she can find a loving home with lots of room to romp and play.

Story
Bernie is a very gentle dog that likes people. He is three years old and is house trained. He is not too keen on young babies. He likes his freedom outdoors and does a few commands. He works well on a halter collar verses just a collar. He does like to go on walks and works well on a leash. He does have energy to burn. We are looking for a home with maybe little older kids. He loves to sit next to you in a chair or sleep with you I n bed. Fenced yard would be great but does well either way.

Story
Samson is 10 years old and is truly a great boy who just wants a peaceful home to relax in! He is 100% potty trained and has perfect house manners. He will not get on any furniture and will not take food off of the table. He loves to go for car rides and is a very sweet boy. He is truly a great dog, and while he is welcome to spend the rest of his days with us, I know that he would be happier in a calmer environment than we will ever be able to provide him. We are a large family of 8 and are VERY active with kids and people in and out throughout the day. With the constant activity, it makes him rather nervous, and you can tell he has not been happy in our home for quite some time. While he is an older guy, he still has lots of life left in him and I hate to force him to stay somewhere he is not happy if there is potentially a better home for him. He does have a mild case of discoid lupus but does just fine without any medication. It never gets worse or causes him any issues.

Story
Meet Hank, a loving and spirited dog whose journey as a dog who was dumped at the end of our road by people who then sped off led him to find his temporary home with us! This energetic boy brings boundless enthusiasm and joy to every day. He's smart too - already mastered house training and responds well to cues like "sit," "go to bed," and knows his inside/outside routines. Hank has received full veterinary care including vaccines and neutering, so he's ready to start his next chapter. His playful nature and zest for life would make him an incredible companion for an active household. He'd thrive as either an only pet or with similarly energetic dog friends who can match his wonderful playful spirit. While we've loved fostering Hank and helping him, we're now searching for his perfect forever home - one where his exuberant personality can truly shine! Hank would do wonderful in a home who likes to be active with walks, hiking and playtime.
