Details

Not good with kids, Not good with dogs, Not good with cats, Needs experienced adopter,

Story

To know Jupiter is to be loved by her. This 4-year-old Akita mix has a soul full of devotion. She bonds deeply with her people and looks at you like you hung the moon. Due to a severe personal medical crisis, I can no longer give her the care she deserves. Jupiter is a "Queen Bee" who needs to be the only pet and in an adult-only home. She prefers not to share her space with other animals or small children. She has a tender heart and struggles with separation anxiety when crated or left alone too long. She needs a home where someone is around often (work-from-home or retired) and can provide plenty of opportunities to go outside for potty breaks. She thrives on routine and specific attention. If you are looking for a loyal, loving shadow to be the center of your world, Jupiter is waiting for you. She deserves a soft place to land where she can be the priority. Please contact me to meet this special girl.

Marshal

Bernese Mountain Dog Poodle (Standard)

Details

Story

Meet Marshal A Big, Handsome Softie Looking for the Right Home Marshal is a 6 1/2 YO, 90 lb male Bernedoodle. He is a loving, affectionate companion with a huge heart. He bonds deeply with his people and is happiest simply hanging out by your side. He is sweet, gentle with adults, and has an adorable, expressive face that wins everyone over. Marshal does, however, need a very specific type of home. He cannot be around children, especially small ones, and must be placed in an adults-only environment. He also has a low tolerance for frustration, and his anxiety makes him reactive. Because he is so attached to his people, he doesn’t like being left alone. He thrives in a calm, predictable home where he can feel secure. He would also do best with a fenced-in yard, where he can safely relax, explore, and burn off energy without added stress. With the right match, Marshal is an incredibly loyal, loving, and rewarding dog. He truly just wants to love and be loved.

Every day is an adventure for Pepper. He thrives on playtime, especially fetching and romping through the agility field. In his foster home, he was a perfect gentleman, happily lounging in his extra-large crate like it was his personal man cave or cozy studio apartment. When it’s time to wind down, he’ll tuck himself in without a fuss. Pepper is pure joy to be around—sweet, spirited, and full of personality. His outgoing nature and big heart make him the kind of dog who turns every moment into a memory. If you’re the adventurous type who loves staying active, Pepper could be your perfect sidekick. He’d make an incredible hiking buddy and an even better best friend. He’s house trained, crate trained, easygoing, and endlessly lovable. Pepper is a 1-year-old Black Lab mix.
