Story
Nyx is a 6-year-old St. Berdoodle, about 75 lbs, who has been with our family since she was 8 weeks old, along with her bonded companion, Finn. She is laid back most of the day, with occasional bursts of energy running and playing with him. She is a huge cuddle bug, very intelligent, knows her basic commands, and loves staying close to her people.She is friendly and affectionate, and often greets new people by rolling over for belly rubs. She has no history of aggression or destructive behavior. Nyx is spayed, accustomed to a doggie door and self-feeder, and also does well with being let out and eating on a set schedule. Her biggest fear is thunderstorms, when she does best with reassurance and a comfortable place to settle.Finding a new home for Nyx and Finn is an incredibly difficult decision. They have spent their lives together, and we are strongly hoping to find a home where they can remain as a pair and be just as loved.

He is laid-back most of the day, with occasional bursts of energy running and playing with her. He enjoys cuddles and attention, but is also perfectly content relaxing nearby on his own.Finn is very intelligent, knows his basic commands, and has no history of aggression or destructive behavior. He can be a little reserved with new people at first and may keep his distance until he feels comfortable, but he warms up with time. He is neutered, accustomed to a doggie door and self-feeder, but also does well with being let out and eating on a set schedule.Finding a new home for Finn and Nyx is an incredibly difficult decision.

Story
I got him from my brother as he was about to become homeless and would no longer be able to care for him. He's about 2-3 years old and is very friendly and doesn't bite, and is good with other dogs. I live with 2 roommates and don't have much space, and I spend the majority of my time working, and he spends all of his time in my room. I feel like I can't properly care for him and give him the life that he deserves and he is clearly depressed as his breed needs a lot of stimulation and space. He is very high energy, affectionate and playful, but also has high anxiety and is easily stressed, when I got him from my brother he was terrified and stressed for the first couple of weeks, but then he started to settle in and his anxiety started to fade. I just want him to be somewhere where he can thrive and have the life he deserves.

Story
I got gifted nube by a family member and she’s been the sweetest and most active dog ever. She’s really affectionate and does requiere a lot of time and attention. I been trying to work with my landlord on keeping her but they gave me a month to find her a new home due to her size. She’s done good so far with my other smaller dog and other pets she’s met along the way. She’s a little shy at first but quickly warms up to people. She will be a year old this October. For her new home I need someone who’s owned German shepherds before who’s familiar with the breed and the attention and physical activity they require. Someone who wants her to be an additional to their family. Or who just wants a forever best friend.

Story
Clipse is a wonderful, affectionate Chihuahua with a big personality. He loves being with his people, getting attention, playing with fluffy toys & being part of whatever is going on. He can be shy at first, but quickly becomes a loving, loyal companion.He lives with our other 2 dogs and gets along great with them, but we believe he would be happiest as the only dog where he can soak up all the love & attention. He has also been around children & does well, no concerns there.Clipse knows how to use a doggie door, but has marked territory in the house. We believe this is related to living with multiple dogs & would improve in a single-dog home.We are making the difficult decision to rehome Clipse because we are expecting our first child and want him in a home where he can continue getting the individual attention he loves & deserves. Finding the right home for him is extremely important to us.
