Story
I am looking for a suitable new home for Oso, a huge hearted three-year-old Anatolian Shepherd mix. He has a uniquely sweet disposition, shy demeanor, protective nature and affectionate personality. He would do well with land/acreage and with a bit more training, he would be a great guard dog for chickens/livestock. He LOVES being outdoors but sleeps indoors and will also include a large kennel. Let me know if you have any questions! ☺️

Murphy is the sweetest boy who just has a lot of puppy energy and needs a home with someone who has time to tame that energy. He loves giving kisses and just needs someone with the time to give him attention and maybe doesn’t have small children due to his size.

Bindi is a happy, outgoing leader and is such a sweetheart. She would love nothing more than to lounge around or hang out on your lap all day. If you need to go out, she calmly waits and will greet you excitedly when you return. She and her sister have been doted on and cared for by my mother for 11 years. Mom is now about to turn 80 and has moved to an assisted living where pets are not allowed. I would love for Bindi and her sister, Boo, to stay together and find their forever home. Please reach out with any questions, thank you!
