Story
Willow is a sweet dog, but she is nervous and because of my job (traveling), I need to board her. She is selective regarding her dog friends. Her passion is people, she loves them. Loves her belly rubbed. She needs to be in a home with someone who can give her the attention she needs. I have spent thousands of dollars on her training. She can sit, stay, heel without any challenges. She is super loving and super sweet. She does have high energy, therefore she needs someone to work her. My heart breaks that I am considering rehoming her, but it's not fair that she is being boarded so often.

Story
Hi, my name is Mavis. My foster mommy foundme in a really bad area of cleveland and I was in bad shape. Since then, she has vaccinated me, I am dewormed, and I was already spayed, i'm about 2-3 years old. Even though i'm young, i'm extremely intelligent.My foster mommy says I may be the most intelligent dog she's ever met. I'm not sure if I really like boy dogs or girl dogs, but I love kids and I love people. I know all of my commands, and I have wonderful recall. I just need to find my forever home or a foster parent.Will you please be that person for me?

Story
Meet Dasher, she is a black Labrador Retriever breed and is around 4-4.5 years old pup, she’s a fur ball of energy and excitement that just needs some extra love and attention. She is Very playful and jittery and loves to be around and be included in EVERYTHING, she suffers from separation anxiety so she is always under you and chance she can get. A while back in late 2020 early 2021 my aunt had received the pup as a gift from her coworker at work since then mom had a lot of pups ever since then she has been with her for about 4-4.5 years but due to her recent request to move we have to find Dash a new place to call home. We’re looking for a owner who can provide Dasher the right attention, love and care that she deserves and needs.
