Story

Luka is a 4 year old, 44lb, husky mix. He is talkative! We do not know the history of where he came from, but a scar on his back leg indicated that is was not a good place. Despite this, he loves people and other animals. He loves attention, getting petted, toys, and being the center of attention. He is very smart, but also is an escape artist. We previously had a fenced yard, but do not at our new home. We bought an invisible fence, however, he breaks through the barrier which is very unsafe. We have made the hard decision to find him a new home with a family who has a fenced yard to accommodate him. He does not come back when he gets out. He is microchipped and makes friends with whoever he sees, so we usually have to wait for someone to find him and call us. We are terrified he is going to be hit by a car. He has been very fortunate as he has had some really close calls running out in front of vehicles. He deserves to have a loving family with a yard to run and play in safely.

Story

Pip is about 1 year old, 40lbs mix breed. She is a very sweet girl with a submissive personality. She is very good with other dogs/animals and would thrive in a home that has at least one other dog (she does not like to be all alone). She is crate trained, she sleeps in her crate every night and when we are not at home. She is very obedient and eager to please. She is very loving and affectionate. She has good recall and knows all the basic manners. She does not bark at all, I don't think she has the ability to. She also does not jump on people when excited and has never shown any aggressive behavior, she's a sweetheart ❤️ She was left in my care after my sister abandoned her and I unfortunately cannot keep her because I already have three dogs. I want to find her a great home where she can be well cared for!
