Story
Due to the owner Verle having cancer and on hospice the two dogs penny and Volt need to go together to a luving home . Verle is dying and his last wish is that his dogs get adopted together and stay together in a luving home. Have all their shots, both spayed and neutered and also microchipped. They are house broke good with kids and walk on a leash. They are only 40 and 50 pounds and will not grow any more . They are also 5 and 6 years old. They like to be indoors but also luv to play and be outside for awhile. Very luving and Verle wants to know his dogs are adopted before he passes which is soon. Time is of the essence as they had to move and dogs will be misplaced or even taken to the pound and most likely put down ! Please let’s help this Cowboy get his dogs a good safe home , as he is already dealing with a lot

Story
Adoption fee is $1800 and works to serve the rescue as a whole. Mom is a Blonde 1yr old Goldendoodle and Dad is a red, 2yr old , Irishdoodle. DNA test says puppies are about 50% standard poodle, 30% golden retriever 20% Irish Setter. This was an accidental litter. Dad has been fixed and rehomed. Mom is scheduled for spay. Hope is tender and joyful. She plays well with the others and loves the attention. So far she does great on the pee pads and sleeps through the night. Granted having her siblings gives her lots of bodys to cuddle so being on her own will definitely be the biggest adjustment. She's as sweet as she is beautiful.

Story
Kane is a 6 month old Golden Retriever mix. Kane is gentle and very obidient. He spends most of his days outside with his brother in their own little oasis with plenty of space to run and play. Kane will be your shadow if you let him. He knows not to jump so when he is asking for pets he will sit pretty right at yor feet and give those literal puppy eyes. Irresistibly precious. He aims to please. Kane is crate trained and although I don't claim him to be fully housebroken, we never have an issue. He roams his areas and lounges in the kitchen waiting for a treat. Kane is very chill. Give him a bone and a bed and he is happy. Sort of a simple guy. He knows a few commands like sit, stay, off, and waits for his command before eating. His recall is good and he heals really well. He hates the leash but we're working on it. Kane is not much of a barker but he will if he feels he needs to protect even though he'd pee himself if confronted with any real danger. Facts are facts. Kane is a sensitive, simple pup, who just wants to be loved.

Jojo is a gorgeous gentle boy. At times he has a hard time staying still but he gets there. His tail.is always last to get the memo.Jojo's temperment is very happy and he is fine with letting someone else take the lead, k9 and human alike. He is not dominant but still confident. He is quiet and very obidient. Jojo is outside during a large part of the day in an area fit for a dog. He is active and has a nativity to him. He is gentle and excited at the same time all the time. He loves toys and wants to come along on whatever adventure you have planned. He quiets quickly and listens well. He is crate trained and sleeps through the night. He knows how to heal, sit, stay, quiet, and off. He does great at down but is a little stubborn about that one. Jojo is very loving and deserving of a reciprocated kind of love.

Story
Mika is a fun, loving, energetic and well trained dog. She is a inside pet at the moment but alot of times she prefers to be outside to sun bathe. However, I do not have the yard to do that for her. She is house broken and get along well with other animals. You can leave her out during the day and while you are gone and will come back to a home as you left it. However, Mika is VERY timid and shy. It will probably take some time for her to come around. I would prefer if she was the only pet because of how much attention she needs, however- if not that is fine. Mika does need join vitamins that I will provide when she is rehomed.

Story
Willow is an approx 2 yr old female GSD. She is definitely more of an introvert and somewhat shy, but she's come a long way since we picked her up. She is doing so well and building her confidence meeting new people, kids, and other dogs! Her perfect home would be a relaxed home. She gets nervous when she's bombarded, so a patient family would be great for her! Nothing could be better than sitting with you watching movies with some toys to play with! Anywhere you are, she wants to be. She wants to play with the cats like she plays with the dogs, and she gets super excited (which scares the cats). So, because of that energy, we're saying a family without cats would be best. She LOVES to play with other dogs and gets along with most of them! She is potty trained and kennel trained. Her favorite toy is a stuffed squirrel that she likes to fling around - super fun!! A $50 adoption donation/fee would partially cover medical and care expenses. She is spayed, microchipped, and vaccinated. More photos on request! We can only upload 1 here. ***If interested, please reach out. Our first step in adoption is filling out our adoption application. We will consider out of state adoptions, but please expect this to be a bit more complex.
