Story
Meet darlin! We are sad to consider rehoming our sweet girl. Darlin is a playful loving dog who will take over your couch or bed, loves to play &run, I would prefer her go to a home with a big yard and fenced in if possible. She loves children. Has never shown any aggression towards anyone. She gets along well with other dogs, just NO cats. One of our main reasons of rehoming her is due to our senior blue heeler dog, she is just not a fan, as darlin is 3 and still has some play in her- our blue heeler is just not interested in her & snip growls at her, darlin does not act on her behavior. Although she is not an aggressive dog I’m afraid our senior dog will upset her & it might turn into a fight causing her to be hurt. I listed her as house broken but she does have accidents, we are gone through the day& she needs someone who will have more time to work with her to finish the process. We adopted her as well not knowing if she was house trained. pls Reach out for more questions!

Hi! Her name is Blue. She is a mixed of pit with French bulldog. She is 8 months old now. She loves people and other animals. She lives with two cats. There was a family donating a few puppies and when I saw blue, I had to keep her. Unfortunately, I started working 12hours shifts and can’t give her the attention and care she needs. She is potty trained and she loves going for walks.

Story
Rin wandered into our yard six years ago. She was about 6 months old. We have cared for her for 6 years and she is up to date with shots, etc. and is in excellent condition. She is an extremely happy and playful dog. She loves to play fetch and to go for walks. She has been trained and heels well. She loves company. She gets along well with most other dogs. Many neighborhood dogs stop in our yard and play with her. She used to like cats until one scratched her nose and now she dislikes cats. We have an invisible fence that she has learned to stay inside of and she sleeps in the garage. We have left her for three weeks at a time when we are out of town; the next door neighbor feeds her and checks on her; other neighbors stop by and throw the ball for her; the invisible fence contains her; but we are traveling more now and do not want to leave her home alone for extended periods. For a new home, we would like someone who will be home nights with her.

Story
absolute sweetheart and great with other dogs. Due to work I’m going to be having to traveling more often for several days at a time. I’m seeking a loving home for my wonderful bloodhound. Daisy is affectionate, kind, and great with families. If you’re looking for a playful companion who loves to play fetch and cuddles, she is the perfect fit. Please contact me if you’re e interested in adopting her and providing her with the care she deserves. Pure breed with papers but please note she is not a hunting dog. She’s a giant baby :)
