Story
Star needs a good home. She was abandoned and I didn’t have the heart to send her to pound. I had a couple of people interested in her but they were very sketchy. I’ve placed her on web sites people wanted me to drive hrs away. She is very easily trained and fast learner. She is house trained , she knows sit leave it , house, back, I just can’t afford her. She needs more than I can give her shots etc. she was spayed at human society. She’s approximately 6 months old. I was hoping to have found her a good home besides puppy jail at pound. She love to play with balls frezibies an trampoline’s. I am willing to apply the 150 adoption fee to your vet of choice to ensure a good home.

Size
(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)

Story
We have had Moose since he was a puppy. Our original intentions were for livestock guardian purposes, but that didn't happen he has been a household pet from the beginning. My husband and youngest child do not like Moose, and unfortunately he has become a source of contention in our family dynamic. He has recently been showing signs of aggression toward our cats. We have decided it would be best for him and our family to rehome him to a more appropriate environment where he can be himself and be happy, loved by all members of the household. Moose is 2.5 years old (born 6/18/2022), purebred Great Pyrenees, neutered, up to date on all vaccines and parasite medications (treated monthly with simparica trio), microchipped, and weighs 96lbs. He is goofy and playful, but a bit anxious at times, and suspicious of strangers/new things as pyrs are known for. Good with kids and dogs but NOT chickens or cats. NEEDS SECURE FENCING (not invisible).
