Story
Gardendale, AL (Near Birmingham AL) Sky is a 3.5 year old Husky mix . Due to a divorce & a moving situations, he needs a new home. He absolutely loves people. He loves toys, bones, to play & to relax and love. He loves walks, runs, hiking, water and riding in a vehicle. He needs regular walks but then tires quickly & crashes after. He prefers being inside as a part of a family. He is crate trained, neutered & potty trained. He has all of his shots & takes trifecta. He has a natural drive to chase squirrels etc when off leash outside. He was raised with 2 small dogs & 9 year old but I’m not sure how that would go with a new family. He has chased stray cats outside. He is a lover dog that wants to bury his head in your lap. So I think he would thrive as a companion dog. He likes small children a lot but wasn’t raised in a home with any. Due to his size, he could knock small children down jumping I think. He needs to be with someone with either a fenced in area to run or regular walks

Story
Kobe is a big-hearted, affectionate boy who truly loves being part of the family. He’s the kind of dog who wants to be wherever you are — whether that’s riding in the car, cruising on the golf cart, or curling up in bed at night. He is excellent with kids, great with other dogs (big and small), and does well with cats, which makes him an easy fit for many homes. Age: 4½ years (birthday in July)House-trained and uses bells that hang on the door to go outside Kennel trained Knows basic commands Responds best to praise (but definitely enjoys treats!) Loves car rides and outdoor adventures Kobe has always had access to a fenced yard, so a home with a secure fence would be ideal for him. He is an indoor dog and thrives when he gets plenty of attention and companionship. He does best with durable, indestructible toys, as rope toys aren’t safe for him if left unattended. He would be perfect for someone looking for a loyal, affectionate companion who wants to be part of everyday life.

Meet Sam. Isn't he the cutest little munchkin man?! He is 33 pounds of per love and personality. Master cuddler and silly clown.Sam is an English Bulldog mix. He may have some Frenchie and/or Boster terrier in there, too. Who knows, we just know he is absolutely adorable.This fella probably needs a home where he is the only furkid, as he's pretty overbearing and temperamental with other dogs in his space. He would be the perfect companion for someone who just wants a cuddle buddy and entertainer, because he is quite hilarious. He makes the most fantastic pterodactyl and gremlin noises. Sam loves to go for walks, rides and warm your lap on the sofa.Guaranteed, this chunky monkey will keep a smile on your face and fill your heart with happiness.

Pug

Pinson, AL
Size

Good with kids, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
I purchased Luna from a reputable breeder in my area. She just turned one 1/8/26 and weighs 20 pounds. She is crate trained, which means she sleeps in her crate at night and anytime time I need to leave the house. Luna is house trained which only took a little while, as she is very smart. She’s a little mischievous, but that’s what makes her so much fun. She is a fast learner, meaning you only have to let her know what’s not acceptable a few times. Luna would love to have another dog to play with, although not necessary as she loves her owner with her whole heart. Children would also be a plus for Luna. She loves to play with anyone that will give her attention. She loves everyone she comes in contact with, but will let you know if there is noise about that she’s not comfortable with. If you are looking for a sweet, loving Pug, then Luna would be perfect for you.
