Story
We have had Henry for the past 8 years, and love him so much. My wife and I got him as a puppy in 2016, after a friend of ours found him, his mother, and three other puppies as strays. We are not sure the exact history, but we surrendered the mother and 3 puppies to a no kill shelter where they were adopted. We kept Henry, raised him in our home and have been his only owners since. He is really sweet, gentle with people, charismatic and inquisitive. He is also anxiously attached to us, and is reactive towards dogs. He has bitten dogs before at the dog park just for coming between us and him, so we made the decision to stop taking him to dog parks and keep him as an only pet. He has never hurt a human, but started showing reactive behavior towards our newborn daughter, though he never hurt her, but we simply wont accept the risk. We made the heartbreaking decision to try to rehome him, otherwise we will euthanize at home where he is at peace. Please contact for more info if you can help

Story
Kira was taken away from an extremely abusive owner at the age of 1. She was brought to me, as my wife and I were fosters. One of my friends took her in and had her for 6 years. He's going through some child custody stuff where Kira would best be out of the picture. So I've had her for several months now and he won't be able to take her back with any certainty - so she needs a new home. She will do best being the only dog - she loves to be the alpha. She is very affectionate and follows you like a magnet! She is a true sweetheart and is very adorable. Come see her for yourself!
