Story

Hello, this is Banji! He is 5 years old—an adorable sweetheart! He is energetic and playful, friendly, very obedient, and intelligent. He gets along well with cats and with his brother, Sam. He is looking for a home where he will receive lots of love, and he is already house-trained! I am placing him up for adoption because, given my current circumstances, I am afraid he would end up all alone. Things have become difficult, and I don't want him to be left homeless! I am giving up a true treasure; ideally, they would be adopted together, as he and Sam are brothers.

Story

Oliver is a very sweet, abstract apricot, intact, house broken, standard poodle that deserves his own special person. He spends most of his day outside with his abstract black mother and brother. His father no longer plays nice with him. He has been raised in a calm, no yelling environment. He's never been allowed in a kitchen. He eats 4Health salmon and potato food. He loves pumpkin, ground pumpkin seeds, and sardines mixed into his three meals a day. He will yodel if his meal is late. 9am 3pm and 9pm one heaping cup of kibble with a cup of water mixed in. He needs a strong fenced yard to roam and do his business in. He was born 11-27-2022. He hunts in his yard. No bird, bunny, mouse, rat, lizard, snake or chipmunk is safe. He has never seen a cat. We are retiring due to a sudden health issue and must give up 2 of our 4 standard poodles. He is precious.

Geo

Chihuahua Australian Cattle Dog

Male, Adult

(when grown) Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less

Details

House-trained, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Meet Geo 🤎🐾 Geo is a 4 yr old sweet, playful, loving boy looking for his forever home. He has a unique look, including one beautiful blue eye, but it’s his personality that truly stands out. Geo is affectionate, loyal, and loves being close to his person—he’s definitely a “follow you everywhere” kind of doggy. He LOVES attention and can be a little needy in the cutest way. Geo is so smart, knows commands AND he’s bilingual—he responds to “paw”/“mano”or “sit”/ “sientate” ☺️ He is potty trained, though he may have occasional accidents if not taken out regularly. He absolutely loves being outside. Fresh air and space makes him really happy. Geo can be shy or nervous when meeting new people at first, but once he feels safe, his affectionate and loyal personality shines through completely. I am looking to rehome Geo since I have a very busy schedule and not able to give him the time/attention he deserves. Not an easy decision but I am looking for a responsible, patient, and loving home.

Male, Adult

Decatur, AL

Size

(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)

Details

Good with kids, Good with dogs, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

I got Ludus as a puppy he is a good dog and very social and adventurous. The biggest reason I have to re-home him is I live in a small town house and all he wants is to be outside all the time. Day or night hot or cold, he wants and I feel needs to be an outside dog and I can't provide that for him. I did resort to getting a 20 ft leash for him to be on outside my townhouse but that's all the room I have and I'll put him on it out there and I have to drag him back him. He loves playing with other dogs so he's bored and miserable. Someone out in the country with other dogs already that have a good little dog house for him and yard to play and plenty of people to give him attention too would be ideal:)

Rusty

Great Pyrenees St. Bernard

Male, Young

Decatur, AL

Size

(when grown) X-Large 101 lbs (46 kg) or more

Details

Good with kids, Good with dogs, Good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

We met Rusty when he was born. His mom was a Great Pyrenees that lived in a farm and belonged to our elderly friend. Rusty was born on said farm with cats, pigs, chickens, children and a horse! So he is very friendly and loveable. However, we recently moved from a lot of land. Into a neighborhood with a strict policy on noise. And although in our last home Rusty lived indoors, here we have had to train him to also live outdoors due to our youngest son's allergies to pets that we were not aware of when we chose to have Rusty join our family. We love him very much and know that he would be very happy with more land to run around in. And maybe with a family that can spend more time with him than we can at the moment. He will seriously bring joy to the right family!

Buddy

Hound (Unknown Type)

Male, Adult

Decatur, AL

Size

(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)

Details

Good with kids, Good with dogs, Good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Buddy came to our home wearing a collar but no tags. He acclimated to our other dogs and cats with no issues. Attempts to find his owners through Social Media, flyers placed in the neighborhood, and calls to area veterinary clinics were fruitless. Buddy has been vetted, neutered, attended dog obedience classes, and is ready to find a forever home. He would prefer a home with a fenced yard that also welcomes him into the home. Although Buddy weighs 65 lbs, he also thinks he is a lap dog and will crawl up in any willing lap. He is a loyal protector, and his baying will keep your home safe from predators. Buddy has lived amiably with dogs, cats, and other pets in his foster home. He knows basic commands- sit, stay, place, and kennel. Buddy loves to play tug-of-war with his rope and is an intelligent animal. Loving, loyal, and full of energy, Buddy will make a great companion in a home with children. In return, he will be their constant loyal protector and partner in play.
