Story

This is Benny, hes a 10 month purebred akc yellow lab. I got him in November of this year and I quickly found out I just dont have enough time for this sweet boy. He deserves a better home. He is not up to date on shots, all he has right now is flea and tick. I havent had time to get him in for his exams. He is very energetic and very playful. He is not fully crate trained yet but I was in the process of doing so. He is potty trained and does pretty well on a leash. He is a major lover and will snuggle with you anytime of the day. If you have any more questions you can reach me at (xxx) xxx-xxxx . Please do not call as I will think its spam. Please text. Thank you

Story

Originally an outdoor dog on a Mennonite farm. My uncle adopted her about 4 years ago. Unfortunately, my uncle has entered hospice and can no longer care for her. She prefer a quiet environment as she can become anxious with change. I believe she is 8 years old. She is a great companion and would thrive in a home that offers her love and attention.

Arlo

Goldendoodle

Male, Young

Size

(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Details

Good with dogs, Good with cats, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Arlo was born January 2023 and came into our lives April 2023. This is my wife and myself’s first pet dog. He is very good with obedience training (sit, stay, fetch, free, waiting for food until we release him from his place, etc.). He loves to play fetch, that is his favorite activity; whether inside or outside. He is crate trained so if you say crate, he will go to his crate. He can sleep in his crate or around the house. When letting him free roam around the house, he very rarely gets into anything he is not supposed to. We take him on runs or walks almost daily which he is good at. The main reasons we want to rehome him is his anxiety. He barks at any door opening, he growls at unknown people and will not let anyone groom him. Honestly I think he needs a house with other pets to help his anxiety so he can fit into a pack or he needs an owner that has experience with anxiety.

Copper

Miniature Dachshund

Male, Adult

Dewitt, MI

Size

(when grown) Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less

Details

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

Story

Copper is our sweet 9-year-old miniature dachshund who has been a loving and loyal companion since he was a puppy. He thrives on attention and snuggles in bed, and takes his role as a protector seriously. Copper has lived with cats his whole life, playfully chasing them without harm, and has lived with another dog but is reactive to new dogs and people. For this reason, we recommend he be the only dog or have a slow introduction process if a second dog is involved. Despite two years of efforts to socialize him with our two-year-old, Copper remains uncomfortable and on edge around children. With a one-month-old now in the home, we realize this situation isn’t fair to him. He growls, avoids, and occasionally snaps (without biting) when overwhelmed. Copper would thrive in a child-free home or with older kids who respect his space. He’s potty trained but will need time to adjust to a new environment. Copper is a devoted companion looking for a calm, patient home where he can feel safe.
