Story
Penny is a sweet and energetic dog. I would still consider her a puppy at 1.5 yrs old. Penny came to us from a previous home where the owner wanted to "get rid of her" if no one took her. Penny is very smart and very treat motivated. She does need some training and time to shape her into the perfect dog. Ideally Penny would be a perfect dog for someone with a lot of space for her to run to release that pent up energy. She would be a perfect hunting dog and is very interested in small animals, so a cat in the house would not be recommended. Penny is crate trained, and can go most of the day without making a mess. She has free range of our garage and has left things a lone so far. She has never been on a leash, but we are working on that and she is learning fast. She just really loves the squirrels and will pull. If you are looking for a hunting buddy or someone to go on an adventure with you, Penny is your girl.

Story
Sweet Reba! Reba is a bit shy but her personality really blooms with another dog. She listens well and loves treats and belly rubs. Reba has a sweet personality, both kennel and potty trained. She enjoys the love and affection of her humans. She is truly a gentle and loving girl. We do recommend she go to a home with another dog that will give her confidence.

We recommend children that have respectful boundaries with dogs. Dogs: Yes, we would prefer she go to a home with another dog. Cats: Unknown but with slow introductions she may be fine, she doesn't seem to have a prey drive Crate trained: Yes, she does great in her crate Potty trained: Yes Health concerns: None Adoption fee: $325 As a rescue, we provide the care, procedures and testing that is available to us. Adopters will be responsible for continued preventatives, follow-up appointments, and medications (if applicable).

Story
In search of his forever family, Bliss is a 16 year old gentleman ready to find a retirement home! He is vision impaired but that doesn’t stop him from loving his people and going on adventures . He’s good with cats and low-energy dogs (if they don’t scare him). He loves to walk and sniff the grass. He loves to walk and sniff the world around him. Bliss is a sweet boy, so healthy. His foster home has two adults, two dogs and one outside cat. Can he live out his golden years with you? Age: 16 years Breed: Poodle/mix Weight: 15 pounds Kid-friendly: Hasn't been around children in his foster home, sudden movements do startle him. Dogs: Bliss can be afraid of high-energy dogs. He would match best with a low-energy dog that will give him space. Cats: Yes Crate trained: He is fine with his crate and his enclosure. Those are his safe places. Potty trained: Yes and No. Bliss is potty trained but at age 16 he is best wearing a belly band. We take him out every couple of hours with our other senior but he can go longer. Health concerns: He is a bit stiff so continued joint supplements are recommended. Current medications & estimated costs: He is currently taking Trazodone. This is a recent addition, 25 mg seems to be good as he can be anxious, once settled he may not need Trazodone Adoption fee: $175 As a rescue, we provide the care, procedures and testing that is available to us. Adopters will be responsible for continued preventatives, follow-up appointments, and medications (if applicable). At times, adopters will be responsible for procedures not completed in rescue (dentals, bloodwork, etc.)  Your new dog will receive their rabies and distemper vaccine.  $50 discount for seniors (65+) and veterans.
