Story
Bumble came from an animal control agency where his life was in extreme danger. He had been picked up as a stray. He is a good dog who loves to lay around the house. Bumble is 100% a house dog who walks well on a leash though will pull some if sees something he is interested in, he loves going to see people at Lowe's Home Improvement Store. Bumble loves to lay on the couch, sleeps well in the house all night but Bumble can open doors so needs secure locks, he also would need a fenced in yard, as well as to meet any other dogs in the household prior to adoption. He is a huge fluff ball at 128 lbs who does enjoy being brushed. The animal control agency said he is 2 to 3 years old. If you are looking for a dog who will lay beside you while you work from home Bumble is a great choice. He is vetted, neutered, and on slow kill heart worm treatment. Won't you give Bumble a chance at a great life with a home of his own? From Foster: -no barking -no digging -no resource guarding -no growling or aggression -loves people -gentle mouth when taking treats -healthy coat and likes being brushed -can hike and play (in bursts) but also likes to chill and sleep -rides well in a car -curious to explore and not afraid of new situations -goes to the door when he wants out (no accidents!) -total house dog

Story
PB for Pretty Boy. He was a stray. He was found to be shot with a BB gun, abused and scared of sharp noises and quick movements. He is extremely skittish and will run when frightened. He will need a secure fenced yard! As being retired we have gotten to know him well. He is house broken. He is not a barker. He won't bark outside even when he hears other dogs. We had him nurtured so it wouldn't be a stressful with going to a new home. He would do best in a calm home. He has no training for commands nor vocabulary He has never shown any aggression. I can put my hand in his food bowl. He would do well in a calm home. A military veteran could take advantage of free obedience training. He gets along with dogs, cats and people if they behave. He has never growled or shown his teeth. He is looking for love, trust and a fun environment. His potty breaks are approximately 12 hours apart. He is satisfied during the day inside with a bone to keep him amused. No regrets with this sweet dog!

Story
Hi! Brody is a sweet boy in need of a loving home! He is still a puppy, less than 1 year old, very loving and a fast learner! He loves new people and animals, when he gets really excited he will flop his whole body down on the ground at your feet to get some belly rubs! He has had a rough past, possibly abused and has been neglected by previous owners. Previous owners got him from the pound but they stopped taking care of him. He has the potential to be a great dog with some training, he’s so loving, good listener, and will stick by your side. I hope he could be a right fit for you and your family! All he needs is love.

Story
Hi. I am Frederick. I am a 2-year-old combo platter of a dog and weigh about 64 pounds. I am a pretty chill guy, but I get very excited the first time I meet someone. After a few minutes, I will be in your lap giving you sloppy kisses in return for ear scratches and cuddles. I get very attached to my humans and think that I am the only game in town. So, I prefer that I am the only dog (or child) in the house.

Story
Introducing Toby!Toby is a big boy, but don`t let his size fool you! He is a sweet and excitable boy who needs someone to help keep him in check! We believe he would be best to go to a home with no other dogs or children. Toby has the tendency to roam, so we believe he would do well to have a fenced in yard, or a safe way to keep him contained and on property while outside.
