Story
We fostered and were going to adopt but the dog just does not fit into our family. We have a small dog, cat and preteen. He is very very sweet and is some what trained. He is house broke and will wait to eat until he he told to. He plays very rough and has a nipping problem that we cannot seem to fix. If you go to pet his head, he will open his mouth and bite, not hard but will. He does it to play we think but it is not working with our other pets and kids. He loves to be outside and would rather be outdoors than in the house. He is a huge digger though. He is up to date at the vet but not fixed yet, as they told us to wait until he is at least a year old. In my opinion, he would do great in an only pet household or with bigger dogs and older kids. He likes kids and wants to play with them, but can be rough and nips. Some of our kids friends did not like that and we’re scared of him. But again, he has a very sweet dog and lovable, and does like to snuggle. He is crate trained

Story
Eve is 1-2 years old, 40 lbs. 'Eve' is a beauty! All black with white on her chest and at the back of her paws. She is a dainty little girl at only 38 pounds with a big attitude! Eve loves to play and has a rough and rowdy playstyle. She does get along with other dogs. She has the most unique and cute bark. Eve is potty trained. Eve does accept and respond to firm direction and commands. She will be easily trainable. She does not like the kennel so she has a confined space (laundry room) and does well in her space. She sleeps through the night with no problem. Eve will go to a kennel as long as the door is open so I do think kennel training could be done with her. Eve would do well in a home with a less dominant dog or well trained dog.
