Story
Wally is the most kind and loving dog there is. He is very smart and well mannered. He does jump when people come in and could use some training on that. He is very good at letting you know he needs to go potty and almost has no accidents in the house (there may be one here or there if you ignore the signs that he has to go). He is very loving and cuddly. He likes to play with toys in the sense of chewing. Toys that are nylon are best for him. Wally does have separation anxiety. For this, he takes Triazadone. This can be prescribed by your vet. We do have a cage that we are willing to part with. He however, does better roaming in an environment where there is a door that leads to outside. Locking him in a cage or in a room has caused his separation anxiety to flare whether on meds or not. We adopted him from Canine Companions Rescue center when he was 8 weeks old. We can no longer keep him due to a divorce and our schedules/moves not working for his needs.

Story
Bindi Adelaide is a purebred Miniature American Shepherd (Mini Aussie). We got her as a puppy from a breeder in Plant City, Florida. She turns 3 years old in January and is 37 lbs. Bindi is super smart and learns fast. She knows sit, down, stay, roll over, shake, other paw, orbit, turn (in a circle), speak, quiet, settle, go to "place" (her kennel), go to spot (when eating), jump, beg, up, off, heel (working on it), upstairs, downstairs, and come. We have been working with her to walk on our treadmill, which she can do with food but not solo yet. Being a herder, she loves to follow you everywhere. She is a great cuddler and loves pets and belly rubs. Bindi has had two rounds of puppy training, two rounds of in-home training, and one round of group training. This has helped her reactivity. Bindi needs an owner that has experience with resources guarding. She would do well in a home without young children or other pets. She would thrive in the country and/or in a big fenced-in yard.

Story
**** MUST BE REHOMED TOGETHER/ BONDED PAIR***** Pongo and Nicky are sweet cuddly dogs. They are brothers and have been together their whole lives. They are 8 years old and we got them from a family friend at the time as puppies. They can be couch potatoes and run around and have fun. They have been around kids, other dogs and cats their whole lives. They match energy and can be very energetic when first meeting but after a little bit they will just match your energy. Nicky has an allergy issue right now and where we live doesn’t help. He had gotten an allergic reaction awhile ago and even though it was treated he still liked and scratched his fur and it’s currently growing back. He also had a mass on his leg that he has had since he was 4 and the doctors tested and said was non cancerous. I have changed their diet to help both of their coats.
