Story
This is Brody! He is 5yrs old. He was a Turtle Mtn. Rescue. I adopted him when he was about 5 months old. Brody has been to training. Knows basic commands. Loves attention, walks/runs, belly rubs & being outside. We are looking for a loving home where he will get more attention. I have two kids (2&under) he gives them kisses every morning but has also become very jealous of not being the only baby in the house. Looking for a home with older kids or no kids. Overall Brody is a good loving dog. He roams the house when no one is home and does not make a mess or get into anything. He is at the door waiting to greet you with his tail wagging. Brody is choosy on other dogs. He is dominant and should be your only pet. I have 2 ziplines, food containers & his toys that will be sent with him. Brody is a runner if he gets loose. I have done the doggie DNA on him and I am willing to share his multiple breeds. Hunting dog at heart. A faithful boy that will love you like no other.

Story
My name is Kander. I am a 2 year old pit bull terrier mix. I have been at my current home for 8 months. I love playing, going for walks and snuggling. My favorite toy is a chuck it ball. I love kids and playing with other dogs but I am not good with cats. I haven’t been around small dogs and don’t know how I would like it. I am kennel trained. I might be a little hesitant at first but I do good in the kennel. I stay in the kennel when I am home alone and at night. I’m not a big fan of car rides. I get calming treats. I have trouble using my voice when I need to go outside. My owners have me on a schedule of going out often but if I really have to go I wait by the door and I will pee if no one notices. I am the sweetest boy and I will be your best friend if you let me.

Story
Freya loves all people, knows how to sit, she did live with another male dog but can be reactive to female dogs. She has a lot of energy and harder toys would be best for her. She loves to go on walks, although she does need a little bit more leash training.

Story
Jared is an approx. 2yr 3months old German shepherd mix, who is good with other dogs and cats. He does need work on his potty training, he does good during the day when staff is here to let him out regularly, overnights are what is hard for him. Jared is very treat motivated, loves tennis balls, and also everyone he meets. Jared would do best in a household that has lots of time to help him learn and adjust, older kids would be best for him as well.
