Story
Lenny was found as a stray by a family member. My father in law took him in and took wonderful care of him. Even being found as a stray, there has never been any aggressive behaviors displayed, and he been taken out in public around other people, children, dogs and animals. He a very laid back, loving cuddle bug. Lennox is perfect for any type of family, whether you're a chill one that stays home a lot or goes on adventures. All he cares about is getting love and attention. And treats! He's very well behaved out in public and on leash. He does stop to sniff a lot, and pee on everything outside, but he's a boy! My father in law passed away almost 3 years ago. The house was willed to us and at the time, Lenny wasn't in the will, but resided in the home, therefore he became ours. We can't keep him in our home as we already have 3 dogs with dog aggression. We had a tenant in the home, taking care of him, but now we are selling the house. He's estimated between 7-9 years old.

Story
"My name is Luke and I came here on 8/17 after being abandoned. Although it was sad, I think it was for the best, because I am a very smart dog and need to be in a home that can give me the exercise, time and attention I long for. I'm a beautiful brindle boy who is a great dog. I'm not a digger or one that destroys stuff. I'm not a barky or mouthy dog. In fact, I'm pretty chill in my pen. Even though my owners left me, I came here already knowing how to sit on command! I really want to please and love training! The volunteer trainer here says I'm a good dog and learning so much! I know how to sit, walk on a leash and am very treat motivated! I'll do best in a home who will be consistent and remind me about the proper way to get attention. I'm a young, energetic boy who needs calm, consistent, structured guidance. I had a sleep-over with one family and I did great with their small kids. I was fine sleeping in a crate there, and also did good with their pig, chickens, and dog (I like to play with other rough-and tumble dogs.) I LOVE to be rubbed under my chin, on my chest and around my ears. I hope for a family who will take me on walks, have a fenced yard or like to go on long walks. All I want is love and a chance. I have a heart of gold. I really do." BONUS: The dog trainer will give FREE training lessons to Luke's lucky adopter. This is something we will require, to ensure a long, happy life for Luke and his family! ........ We do ADOPTIONS BY APPOINTMENT ONLY.
