Story
Mia is about 1 year old. She's a great dog just needs attention. I just had a baby and is been extremely difficult to pay attention to her on a consistent basis. I paid for her training and she's really smart. I would just want somebody who can pay attention to her and have fun with her. She loves playing fetch and she'll even bring the rope when the word rope is said. She's a very protective dog so she's always on guard. Your family will feel protected as soon you get her.

Story
Millie here. Crate trained, house trained. Good with other dogs and I like to play with the cats in the house although I can irritate them or get a little rough with them at times. Just need to be reminded that I am quite a bit bigger than them and they don't want to play as rough as I do. I never hurt them though. Unfortunately due to life circumstances, my owners have taken on a lot more responsibilities and are not able to take care of me the way they feel I deserve and are gone from home a lot. Looking for a loving forever home with friends and family.

Cooper is a great dog. He is very calm and loyal, loves to follow you around and cuddle. He's a great companion for runs and loves to jump around to play with you. He loves to watch other dogs or animals on tv. He's good with other dogs, both big and small as well as kids of all ages. My family needs to move to the east coast and logistically, he can't come. We have a nice, large side table dog cage that you can have as well.

Story
Atlas is about a year and half old. He is a very affectionate and loving dog, he loves to approach anyone with his belly up and absolutely loves all the pets! His favorite snack is anything peanut butter flavored and loves a good bone to chew on. He is a very active dog and loves long walks or going to the dog park but is also very lazy and will sleep for hours upon hours. He is very well crate trained and treats his crate as his bed and favorite place to lounge around in. For being a husky he is extremely quiet, I’ve only ever heard him howl or bark maybe 4 times. He is very friendly with other dogs and loves to play with them any and everywhere.
