Story
Chai is a 13 month old Staffy/pit mix. We got him from a family friend when he was around 5 months. Unfortunately we have to rehome him due to an urgent moving situation that doesn't allow pets. we tried reach out out to shelters but due to him having "stranger danger", they are not able to accept him as a surrender. The only way they would accept him is if they take him and euthanize him, which is an option that we don't want to take but will have to by the 17th. Chai is a very loving and playful guy! He loves being pet and getting belly rubs. His favorite pastime is playing tug of war, fetch, or being chased around the yard. He loves cats and children and has grown up around both. He hasn't had a lot of interactions with dogs so we arent entirely sure how his behavior will be in a home with other dogs. Chai does have stranger danger and issues with focusing while outside so the perfect owner for him would be someone who can dedicate time to him.

Story
Major is a handsome, 19 month old Pitbull mix. We adopted him at 13 weeks old. Major loves people and has never shown any aggression. He is a 'Velcro' dog, who loves being with his people. Needs regular exercise - two 20 - 30 min walks a day and a space to run. He needs a dog owner that is comfortable with high energy dogs. He is curious and loving. We are rehoming because he is just too much around our young grandchildren. He would do well with older children. He is highly trainable and will do anything for a treat! He loves chewing on bones. He knows several commands, sit, stay, down, wait, leave it, drop it, get in your bed, etc. Despite his energy during the day, by 6pm he is asleep for the night, we have to wake him up to have him come up to our bedroom. He is house trained and crate trained.

She loves playing in the yard with other dogs, but she really wants to be the apple of someone’s eye when she goes to her own home.

Storm is a 72 lb rescue who is fully house-trained. Storm 2019 was born on August 1, 2019, and was fostered and found by a friend. I was lucky enough to adopt him. He is pure love and loyalty; unfortunately, we cannot keep him due to our recent divorce. Hi is roughly 72 lbs and a happy dog who loves to be walked daily and sunbathes out the window. He is good around people, children, and animals. He gets excited when he sees people and animals, but he is in control and has totally normal behavior for a dog. He has a very happy disposition.

She is looking for an active, patient family who is ready to shower her with love and is excited to continue her training.Hennifer has typical boxer mix energy, where she loves a good play session and will crash hard for a nap after. She's an absolute cuddle bug. She adores playing with other dogs! She'd do just fine with or without a canine sibling and would make a great candidate for doggy daycare. Hennifer's basically ignored cats in her foster homes, so she'd do well with a dog-savvy cat in the home. Because she loves meeting humans (small and big) alike, she'd do best with dog-savvy kids who are able to give her some time and space to get to know them.She is fully crate trained and is crated occasionally during the day and overnight without any issue. She is mostly house trained and will continue to thrive when taken out on a consistent schedule and routine. She walks wonderfully on leash and enjoys her daily walks around the neighborhood.Hennifer's a vibrant gal who's zest for life will likely have you falling in love with her in no time- is she the one for you?Please Note: All dogs currently available for adoption are posted on our website.
