Story
I got Nyla when she was just about 10 weeks old from a person I installed some appliances for. Her mom is a Husky mix and her dad is a Labrador retriever. Nyla is about 2 years old now. The only other animal she has been around is a cat. I am going back to college and working a full time job so I am not able to adequately care for her. Nyla is a loving, energetic dog that doesn't have even a single violent bone in her body. She is perfect for a family as she enjoys companionship.

Story
Meet Sam!Sam is 5 years old and an absolute sweetheart. He is loving, friendly, smart, and very well-behaved. He has a gentle personality, enjoys spending time with people, and loves receiving affection. He also loves taking long naps and relaxing in his favorite cozy spot. He is house-trained and knows to go potty outside. He does well with cats and gets along well with other dogs, especially his brother, Banji. He is smart, obedient, very affectionate, and loves being close to his family.I’m looking for a responsible, stable, and loving home where he can receive all the attention and companionship he deserves. Due to changes in my current circumstances, I’m no longer able to give him the time and life I want for him, so my priority is finding him a wonderful family.Sam and Banji have grown up together, so it would be wonderful if they could find a home together, but most importantly, I want Sam to have a safe and loving home where he can be happy.
