Story
We have had him since he was 7 weeks old. Unfortunately we are entering into a season in our lives that we can’t avoid and the whole family is literally splitting up. My husband is staying in Birmingham Al , I am going to Mobile with a family member with our youngest child and my two oldest children are going to Montgomery Al to live with my mother and other family. None of my family is set up to take in a family of 5 and a dog. We have to recoup and get ourselves together and we pray Kong can go to a family who will love him as much as we have. This is a tough decision to make and we’re hoping that someone will at least foster him for a little while until we tie some loose ends. He’s a sweetheart but he does not get along well with other male dogs especially. He’s done great with our children and he’s a human lover for sure . He loves cuddles and he’s extremely affectionate

Story
Hello good morning I am actually reaching out in hopes to find a foster for my fur baby. I have had him since he was 6 weeks and now I’m faced with a very difficult decision. Up until early this year I lived in Birmingham caring for my father and when I returned it was difficult to find someone who would accept his breed so I sent Kong to live with a friend for a while and then she accepted a new career and Kong came back to me. Everything was going fine up until yesterday. My landlord reached out and told me it has come to her attention that I have him and that she wants him gone by Friday. Right now I’m trying to exhaust every option that I possibly can. I know once I surrender him on tomorrow that I will not be able to get him back. My husband and I are willing to pay for his daycare so that he won’t have to be a bother during the day and can and will continue to take care of his food and vet care but we just don’t want to lose him

Story
Big boy was left near my grandparents home and taken in. Due to my grandparents age they aren’t able to keep up with him. He is a big baby who just wants love and affection. He’s a good dog and is very protective but loves attention and the occasional treat. House trained and a good deterrent for possible intruders. Overall he’s a protective lap dog but to much work for my grandparents and needs a loving home.

Story
My name is Josie and I am looking for my forever home! I love going on hikes and playing in water, and I can play ball fetch all day long! Balls are my absolute favorite thing! I also enjoy going on walks/runs and getting attention from my people. Although I don't cuddle for long (I am such a busy body), I will following you around the house and lay against you when you are still. I know all the basic manors and even know some fun behaviors! I need a loving home where I can work my body and my brain! I am a double merel, and because of this I am fully deaf and partially blind in one eye. I know to potty outside and will behave in a crate, although I am good about staying home alone without it. I don't get along with other dogs who are dominant or want to bother me all the time. Cats and small children are fun to chase and herd. It might be best to go to a home with no kids or only older kids, no cats, no dogs (1 laid back submissive dog might be okay...).

Story
Makita is a sweet 8 year old husky. I have had her since she was a pup, but unfortunately she does not like small children. With a 2 year old one twin baby boys, I can no longer keep her. She would do best in a single dog home. Huskies have a lot of energy, and she enjoys a back yard where she can run around.

Story
Her mom gave birth to 6 puppies and we were able to find them all a home. But everyone already had a dog or didn’t want one so we were left with him hoping someone would take him. He is very sweet and playful. He is very shy and close to his mom. His new owner will need to have patience and show him the love that he needs.
