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
Rocket is 7 years old & is in need of a new home due to no fault of his own. He is great with kids, all people, cats and some dogs. He needs regular haircuts as he doesn't shed. He lives with older kids and is okay although younger kids make him nervous. He is probably best in a home with kids that understand he is not a toy. He needs someone that wants a constant companion. He doesn't like to be alone. He is a very social dog. Very good on a leash and absolutely loves to walk the neighborhood. He is food motivated and has to be on a low calorie diet or he will pack on the pounds. (He is small but he doesn't know it! He's only 20lb or so but he thinks he is big) He is crate trained although he really loves to be on the couch or bed snuggled up next to you. Only rehoming because he is not getting along with my other dog and his safety is of concern. Please reach out if you would like to meet him! He would love to meet you & chat about his day - he's a character!

Story
Piper is the sweetest, most loving girl ever! She will be two years old in January 2025. All she wants to do is snuggle and run around! We just had a new born baby who is 4 months old, and that’s the only kid she’s been around, but has been really protective over her and sweet and caring!! She has a small issue with digging but that’s mainly due to the fact of lack of attention with us parents being so busy. Other than that, she is a really great dog and deserves a really nice home with a family to love and care for her:)
