Story
Bean is loving,goofy,friendly and full of energy!! He is about 8months now. He knows some basic commands like sit,lay,wait,stay and bed. He shows signs of a good guard dog. Great to travel with and a big kisser if you let him get a few licks in. Really would like for him to find a good forever home!! He is a chewer and can be a little sneaky if you’re not paying attention. Also is potty trained.

Story
Oscar is a 4-year-old sweetheart with a big heart and even bigger energy. He was originally rescued from an abusive situation by my roommate, who found him through Facebook. Unfortunately, despite the best intentions, he hasn’t received the consistent care and attention he truly deserves. Oscar has had a tough start—he suffers from anxiety due to being confined in a cage for extended periods. Because of this, he needs a compassionate and patient person who can provide him with the love, structure, and outdoor time he craves. He thrives on movement and would do best in a home where he can play, explore, and bond closely with his new owner. If you’re someone with time, energy, and a caring heart, Oscar could be the perfect match for you. With the right environment, he has so much potential to heal and flourish. Adjectives to describe Oscar: Energetic, loyal, sweet, anxious, curious, and affectionate.

Story
Looking to rehome my lil guy. He sweet and trained but not good for older people with thin skin. He wants to touch a lot. Not lap dog but he thinks you want to pet him always. He is sweet with my 4 and 5 year olds just not good for 82 year old mother. He has 1 blue eye 1 brown eye perfect colors and markings. Parents were 20 lbs and 18 pounds so he will be small. He is 7 mos old up to date on shots chipped and been to training classes for 2 straight weeks. Did well. He’s a sweetheart. Always wanted one so got him and now my mom is constantly beefing from a touch by him. He loves outside better than in. And plays with toys. He will sit stay take a break, rollover most of the time. He is still on puppy food and has been groomed 1 time he did well. I have bathed him also. I trim nails no problem. Male uncut

I’m a cute four month old pup looking for my forever home. I’m learning some basic obedience and was introduced to the playgroups. It’s fun to play with some other doggies. Please consider adopting me so I can have a forever home.
