Story
Henry is a 1st generation Cavachon - mom was a Bichon Frise & dad was a tri-color Cavalier King Charles Spaniel. Henry was born October 5, 2023 & is full grown at 16lbs. He is completely housebroken & crate trained - sleeping all night long in his crate/home. Henry has the sweetest temperament & is always happy & smiling. He loves to chase his ball & play but when he’s done he’s perfectly content to curl up with his human & sleep. Henry would be great for a single person or a family with children - adapts easily to all situations. He loves to go along with you in the car & will rest comfortably in his crate even on long trips - you never know he’s there. Overall, he’s just an extremely well tempered, lovable & adorable little fellow. 💕

Story
I have had smalls for 8 years and due to a bunch of circumstances I unfortunately have to find him a new home. Smalls is a 8 year old Terrier-Chihuahua mix. He likes flinging around his toys, laying on your lap, and sleeping under the blanket with you, and going outside. He doesn’t tear into things, and his favorite thing is to sleep. He’s fixed, potty trained, crate trained and all his shots are up to date He is a special case though because he hates other animals, but is friendly with people. Which sucks because it’s narrows down to a home with no other pets. I refuse to and absolutely would never consider giving him to a shelter, he would more than likely be put down.

Story
4 year old pitbull terrier. Very cute. He loves people but; he's nervous around strangers. He has been crate trained but prefers to be with people and his bed. He likes to eat cloth material, so he only plays with hard material toys like rubber rings or bones. He broke his shoulder once so he has some metal screws in his shoulder. He gets lonely easily and gets along with cats really well. He would really enjoy a nice yard to run around in.

Story
This is Rosie (pointed ears) and Lily (floppy ears). They’ve been together since they were puppies, so they need to go to a home together. We rescued them from a family member's home. Their living conditions were not okay; they were always in their cages. They were let outside, then they’d come back inside and be put into a cage where they slept, ate, and spent their whole day. We took them in to try to give them a better home, but our living situation has changed since taking them in. We now have kids and are unable to provide them with the care and attention they deserve. After having our second baby, it became too much for me to care for two kids and dogs. It hurts my heart that I have to rehome them. But they need a home that’s able to provide them with more love and attention. They really are wonderful dogs. They listen very well, are house/potty trained, can sit, and are good with children as well as other pets (cats and dogs). Rosie loves all the attention; she loves to play and cuddle. She loves all the stuffies as well. Lily we call “the mom.” She’s very motherly and loves to just chill and sleep. They both love to go on car rides and walks as well! They are both female, 6 years old, born in November 2018 from the same litter. They are a German shepherd and miniature pinscher mix, medium sized dogs. They are both spayed but not up to date on vaccines. I would love for them to go to a home that has a yard for them to roam in and not be confined in a cage or room all day.
