Story
Gracie is a busy, energetic two year old little lady that was left in the unfortunate position of not having been socialized or properly trained. Her elderly owner passed away and left her very anxious and struggling with the change. She needs a calm, quiet environment, preferably with a female since she is very distrusting of males, and will need structure, exercise, and patience. Gracie is scared of cats and will bark and run at them, and she is sometimes territorial around our chihuahua so she would prefer to be the only pet. She is learning to get over her fears and can be very sweet around a favorite human but will need to continue extensive training before being able to be around others without barking. Potty training is coming along, and she would be amazing at agility or nose work and is great at puzzle toys and games. She absolutely loves to cuddle and burrow under blankets. Gracie is also crate trained and is doing well learning to walk on a leash.

Story
Nitro is a sweet boy. He is blind and heartworm positive. We have him on slow kill for the heartworm due to his energy level and not being able to keep him calm. He loves to play with other dogs and kids. He bosses around the other dogs so he needs dogs that will allow this behavior. He would love a home that he can be his spunky self and just love on his humans. He likes to cuddle and play with his toys. Nitro is crate, house, and leash trained. NO CATS!! ##2558243##
