Story
It breaks our hearts to do this, but we are looking for a loving home for our sweet girl, Princess. We’ve had her since she was just 6 weeks old, and she will be 8 years old in August. Unfortunately, our youngest child is developing allergies, and we want to do what’s best for both our child and Princess. Princess is a gentle, loving dog who gets along great with kids and loves to play. She is house-trained and potty-trained, making her an easy addition to any home. She would thrive in a family that can give her love, attention, and a safe space to call her own. A few things to know about Princess: 🐾 She is great with children and enjoys being around people. 🐾 She loves to play and cuddle. 🐾 She is afraid of thunderstorms, so she needs extra comfort during storms.

Story
Lucky was a stray dog. She's been with us briefly but isn't a good fit. She prefers to be outdoors all the time. Furthermore, she loves treeing possums and squirrels. Lucky is up-to-date on all her shots. She is spayed and microchipped. We are looking for someone who would love an outdoor-type dog. She is house-trained but does make mistakes when pottying indoors. Most of the time she will bark to go out. She is good with other dogs, and cats. She is fine around chickens and ducks if in her own space next to them and will keep other critters away as she has for us. She needs outdoor space which we just don't have currently for her. If you are interested in her please contact us at 252-397-0767
