Story

Meet Dewey,Dewey is a sweet, loving, and happy little dog who brings so much joy to everyone he meets. He has a gentle personality, is very intuitive, and loves being close to his people. Whether he’s relaxing beside you, going for a walk, or simply keeping you company, Dewey is happiest when he’s part of the family.This is an incredibly difficult decision for me. Due to my health and mobility challenges, I can no longer give Dewey the life and attention he deserves. This has nothing to do with him—he is a wonderful dog.I’m looking for a loving home where he will be cherished as a member of the family. He has so much love to give and will reward you with loyalty, affection, and companionship. If you’re looking for a devoted best friend, Dewey could be the perfect addition to your family.

Story

Onyx (Bubba) is an amazing dog and an absolute love bug. Doesn’t have any idea that he is as big as he is because if he had his way, he’d be on your lap every chance he got. I’ve had him for about 5 years and he is a sweetheart. Life has changed a lot since I got him, I have 2 kids under 3 now and a wife. My wife got a dog about a year ago and they got along great at first but now onyx and the male weiner dog just don’t get along. Onyx has ALWAYS gotten along with my now 9 year old female black lab. With the 2 males not getting along now I just can’t have the animosity around my two small kids. It breaks my heart to get rid of him but I know that he’d be better suited in a home without another male dog and someone who can actually give him the love and attention he most definitely deserves.
