Story
4 year old pitbull terrier. Very cute. He loves people but; he's nervous around strangers. He gets startled easily, and he hates being alone. 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 takes glucosamine for joint mobility. He gets lonely easily and gets along with cats really well. He would really enjoy a nice yard to run around in.

Kookaburra is a smaller gsd mix. She is happy and loves to be with people. Even at about 2 yrs old , there are still things that she needs to learn about as she shys away from new or noisy.

She doesnt mind other dogs but probably not a good idea for cats to be around her.**Please fill out an application found on our website under "adopt a pet" and send it in to start adoption process.**All Dog Adoption Fee's are $175 Cats are $100Includes initial Vaccinations, De-Worming, Flea Meds, Heartworm Testing, & Spay/Neuter
