Story
He was posted on Facebook and my ex’s family got him. He super sweet and loving with his main caretaker. He loves to be right underneath you. But recently he hasn’t been around people and have began growling and barking. I can’t afford the training that is needed to help him. I also started a new job recently and I’m gone a lot and I don’t feel it’s fair to him. He has never growled or barked at me. I’m hoping a loving person will adopt him so he can live a better life.

Chase is 3yo German shepherd mix. He is playful and full of energy. Gets along with other dogs but can sometimes irritate them with his playful energy. Unable to keep him as we have started to keep him outside more since my son has started to walk. Due to this he has been escaping and we are worried he may end up getting into some trouble.

Story
Hi, I purchased Maverick when he was 6 weeks old from a local breeder in Raleigh, NC. He has always been an inside dog who is crate trained, and had a fenced in backyard for exercise. He was neutered and then sent to professional training for 2 weeks when he was around six months old. The training was beneficial in terms of obedience but he began showing signs of aggression towards those who do not live in the home. I don't allow Maverick to interact with friends or family who visit my house, as he may become protective of me and/or defend the house. This makes traveling or leaving the house for extended periods almost impossible because I don't trust that he will not be aggressive towards a dog sitter in my absence. I am hoping to find Maverick a home with a new owner who is comfortable with German Shepards and can mitigate any potential aggression through a level o

Story
Ranger is a wonderful, sweet, good dog! He loves people of all ages! He likes to lay down at your feet. He goes to the bathroom outside. He never chews up shoes or items other than his pet toys. He loves treats. If he goes out and you want him to come to you just say "treat" and he comes running! We love him so much and do not want to part with him, but we bought a home in Florida that does not allow pets, so we must find him a really, really wonderful new home with someone or a family that will love him and treat him like the precious boy he is. He is 8 years old. He does not like to have his feet touched. He is very patient with children. He is very obedient and is no trouble nor does he have any bad habits. He is just the best!!

Meet Agatha, a vibrant German Shepherd who is 100% alive and full of life. Her enthusiasm for outdoor activities is unmatched, making her the perfect companion for an active family with kids aged 8 and above.Agatha thrives in the company of other dogs, especially those weighing 25 pounds and up. Whether cruising along paved trails in her scooter chair or frolicking in the backyard with her canine pals, Agatha is in her element. Outdoors, she expresses herself vocally, yet indoors, she transforms into an incredibly quiet and well-behaved companion. At least a year old now, Agatha has mastered the art of a peaceful night's sleep in her dedicated room.Her adaptability is evident as she navigates ramps effortlessly, and a few stairs pose no challenge. Agatha eagerly welcomes belly rubs and craves attention, making her a delightful addition to any family. Puzzle toys keep her engaged, and she excels at outdoor bathroom breaks. For any accidents indoors, cloth pads prove to be an effective solution.Agatha's love extends to rides in the vehicle, where she handles the experience with ease. With her joyful spirit and adaptable nature, Agatha is more than a pet; she's a pure joy to have as part of the family. ##1747122##

Story
Breed & Age: German Shepherd Mix, 1 year old Personality: Sweet, Silly & Goofy Likes & Dislikes: Likes - Playing, chew toys, cuddling. Hasn’t found anything to dislike yet!   Say “what’s up” to Willie Jack! This adorable pup is a bundle of joy who’s as sweet as he is silly! Willie Jack is always ready for some fun, whether it’s chasing toys, running around the yard, or curling up for a cozy nap once all the fun is done. Willie Jack is a lovable pup who knows his basic commands, is house and crate-trained, and is the perfect buddy to take on car rides for exciting adventures. He’s been living in a foster home with other dogs and is a big fan of his doggy buddies. He’d do well in a home with other dogs but could also be a solo co-pilot for all of your adventures. Though he’s still perfecting his leash skills, his eagerness to please makes him a quick learner, and he is VERY food-motivated (which makes training a breeze). Willie Jack is on the lookout for a family who’s ready to keep up with his playful spirit, let him be a part of all the fun and outings, spend lots of time with him, and help him continue his training so he can be the best boy. If you’re ready for a loyal, fun-loving furry friend who’ll make every day an adventure, Willie Jack is waiting to be your new best buddy!  ##1832974##

I enjoy going for walks around the neighborhood and saying hi to all the people and pups that we meet. I’ve been to a few breweries and those were fun too. I’ve mastered “kennel up” and “sit” so you know I’m a smart guy. Do I sound like I’d be a good fit for you? YouTube: https://youtu.be/19MIdIjX5-0?si=45Kblt8pK8vkBWBD ##1941186##
