Story
Apollo is a very friendly, playful pup! He loves to go on walks and has really good recall. He is a very smart dog and will get bored easily if left in the house unattended. Apollo is being rehomed due to us not having the time for him after having a baby. He comes with his crate, leash, bowls, and food. Rehoming fee could be waived for the right family, I just want to see him in a good home!

Story
Sammy is an amazing lab mix who would make a great dog for an individual or a family with older kids. His favorite things are playing fetch and chewing a bone on the couch. He is five years old, up-to-date on shots, and very healthy. Sammy is crate trained, house trained, and loves learning new tricks. However he struggles with some leash reactivity around other dogs. He can be a bit exuberant when meeting new people but quickly settles when played with. Sammy is a very loyal dog and is being rehomed through no fault of his own. It breaks my heart to do but he is too much around our infant son and so not getting the attention or exercise he deserves. He would do great in a family with older kids or someone with no kids, We really want him to go to the right home so the fee could be waived if we felt it was the right person. Sammy comes with his crate, toys, leash, bowls, and food.
