Story
We got Duke from a lovely couple in the country side as a family dog. He was born in April of 2021, and will be 4 years old this year. Due to our busy schedule, we felt that we are slowly unable to meet the needs of Duke and that he deserve so much more, which makes us feel that the best solution was for Duke to go into a home where he can have the time to be outside and connect with people. Duke is very calm, friendly, and playful. He loves your attention and loves playing with toys. He was overweight being home for the most part, which has affected his right eye. But with working through many veterinarians, he has now slowly lost weight and that it was due to his lack of exercise/overweight that may have caused the discoloration in his eye. He loves to go on walks, but with the few interactions he has had with other dogs, he is afraid of them if they bark at him. Otherwise, he usually minds his business and is very playful once he gets to know others.

Story
Beau will be 2 in February. He is a fixed German Shephard / Siberian Husky Mix. Treat Trained. Knows commands. Can be vocal around new people but acclimates fairly quickly and stays quiet. Good walker. Better as a single home dog with adults and /or older children, no cats. He currently lives with his "sister", a young female German Shepherd, but would likely thrive solo. Active pretty guy who is very gentle, loves cheese, toys, peanut butter, and belly scratches. He e is crate trained, house trained, and has multiple beds & toys we can provide. He loves walks or running in a fenced yard, and horseplay. Due to a progressing cancer diagnosis, we need to find him a loving forever home asap.

Story
We are a retired couple. We have been traveling extensively and just bought a home in Gulfport. All the traveling is hard on Chachi, he needs a place to be without moving around so much. Chachi is a loving little dog who loves to snuggle with you. He can be on his own at home. He likes his "home" kennel. He is good with people once he gets to know them, same with kids. At first he can be very nervous and barking at strangers. He is good on walks and is overjoyed to ride in the car. He is mostly good with other dogs, sometimes barks at larger black dogs. He came from Texas where he was raised by a family that could no longer keep him. We have had him three years and we do love him, but think he needs a more stable home life. Not so much traveling around.

Theo

Lancashire Heeler Schipperke

Male, Adult
Maplewood, MN
Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Story
Theo is well-behaved and happy when he is home with his pack. He is ideal for those who do not have many guests over. He is low maintenance, calm, playful, gentle, cuddly, obedient, and loyal. He enjoys walks and dog parks but is also content being inactive. Theo is an easy and perfect dog outside of his reactivity to strangers. He barks protectively when others enter the home and will lunge if they try to engage with him. Unfortunately, he bit someone in the past year when they tried to pet him. Tools from a trainer helped reduce reactive behavior, but it continues to be challenging with our social lifestyle. He is not comfortable with kids but is fine with cats and most dogs. Theo deserves a forever home where he can be appreciated and loved as strongly as he loves back. Those considering adopting Theo should understand that he is likely to always be an anxious dog. However, this should not be a problem for those who have a private lifestyle.
