Judiko is a 2 year old American Bulldog who needs lots of love and exercise. She is a very loving girl and enjoys walks, she is a very active girl and very protective of her owners and toys she is friendly with dogs but would need socialization. She needs a loving home where she will be the only fur baby there, if there are other animals she is overprotective when there are toys around. She also loves all the cuddles in the world. She gets a little nervous with new people that comes into the house but she’ll slowly warm up to you. She is also fully house broken and crate trained.

Story
Nefi is an 8-year-old dog, soon to turn 9 in April, who I got from a breeder in South Carolina. While she has a protective nature and is deeply loyal to her family, Nefi struggles with trusting strangers, a challenge she has faced since she was a puppy. Despite efforts to socialize her early on, she remains reserved around new people. She has lived alongside my stepson and another dog, but her interactions with them have sometimes been strained. She can be possessive about food and has shown behavioral challenges in certain situations. Over the years, Nefi has mellowed in some ways, barking less now that she’s older. She’s also incredibly intelligent, trained in commands and tricks, and responds well to patient, consistent guidance. Although she has her challenges, she is a loving and devoted companion to those she trusts. Due to significant changes in my life, I’m seeking a new home for her. Nefi requires someone with experience handling dogs with behavioral issues and the patience

Story
This butter ball here is Rufus, and he is on the hunt for his new Furever home. He came in as a stray and has not been reclaimed. upon him coming in he needed medical attention as his skin was not in the best condition. so, he is all cleared now but will need long term checkups as it seems to be allergies that went untreated for some time. Rufus knows basic commands and walks nice on leash. we are unsure how he will be with others so as always, a meet and greet is required.
