Story
One and half yr old intact male who is loving and in need of his forever home. He is house and crate trained, lives with sisters and mom and dad. He has learned to walk on a leash, when happy his whole back end shakes. Unfortunately we are unable to continue to provide the love and care he needs, due to landlord restrictions we are sadly forced to rehome our 3 dogs.

Story
Lucy is an adorable Border Collie mix with a great smile! She loves going on long walks and even sits politely when you leash her to go outside. Lucy enjoys traveling and is a great running partner. She loves snuggles and belly rubs. Lucy does well with sleeping on her own, with free access to her crate. She is a good listener, and overall well-behaved other than her jealousy/aggression issues. She is an anxious dog and we have given her calming medications in the past. Lucy was originally owned by a relative that adopted her from a shelter. Our relative could no longer care for her because of how active Lucy is. Our relative had a chihuahua and three other cats that Lucy did well with. From what we have seen in the past, Lucy does well with kids. We have seen that she must warm up to younger men.

Story
Shadow is a playful and sweet boy who loves to run but needs a bit of discipline and training. We are looking to find him a healthy, happy, and an energetic parent. A family that will treat him like a part of their own family and keep him indoors and not chained outside. He loves to eat and hasn’t had too much human or dog interaction but will learn with a good parent. Only reason we are trying to place him in a new home is because we just had a baby and our home is small so it’s really difficult to give him time and proper space also we feel as if we can’t give him what he deserves. We love Shadow and he is a joy to have but ultimately want what’s best for him.

Story
I am trying to help my elderly neighbor find a new home for his 4-year-old American Pittbull. He is 77 years old, and his wife is 78 and uses a walker, so they can no longer walk and provide an active lifestyle for their dog, Stormy. Stormy is well-behaved, and we are willing to give a few private dog training sessions offered by Puppy Prep By Steele for future owners to help with the transition. Stormy is spayed and fully vaccinated, and we can provide all her records.

Story
I adopted Brody from Angels of Assisi about 5 years ago; he's an incredibly sweet pitbull/boxer mix with no known health issues. He tends to ignore other dogs and focus on human attention. He's incredibly cuddly, and will whine if he can't lay next/on top of you while you're on the couch. He's comfortable riding in the car and knows how to wait for food, sit, and lay down. Unfortunately, he has to be in his crate constantly due to my schedule since entering grad school. I think he'll be happier with someone who can give him more attention and outdoor time. If adopted, I will include all of Brody's items. This includes: -a large crate -a no-pull walking vest -dog food -water and food bowl -nail grinder -clothes (costumes, jackets) -heartworm preventative

Story
Adopted from a shelter. Initially had separation anxiety, but now outgoing, snuggly, affectionate, fun-loving dog. No medical issues, never destructive to furniture, leash-trained, knows basic commands. If you squat/bend down he will come in for a cuddle! Would love a family with time to snuggle him and a yard to play in. He is friendly with humans and loves to play with most dogs but has had altercations with two; inquire for more details.
