Story
Benji (5) is a very playful energetic and fun loving dog who brings joy wherever he goes. He absolutely loves playing fetch especially with his tennis ball and could happily do it all day. Long walks are one of his favorite activities and he enjoys staying active and engaged with his people. He would be a great fit for a family with kids or anyone who enjoys an active lifestyle and lots of playtime. Benji came to our family about four years ago as a gift for a family friend who was relocating and unable to keep him. Since then he has been a beloved part of our household. He is affectionate social and thrives on interaction and fun. Benji does well on a dry food diet and loves his treats. He currently lives with Chestnut (10) and they are very close with a strong bond. Chestnut balances Benji perfectly with his calm sweet and affectionate nature and if possible we would love to keep them together.

Story
We have had Chestnut (10) in our family for about eight years. I found him at a park one day and he ended up following me all the way home. We searched for his owners for weeks and made sure he received all of his shots but no one ever claimed him so he became a permanent part of our family. Chestnut is a Golden Shepherd and Cocker Spaniel mix and has the sweetest most gentle temperament. He is very calm and affectionate and truly just wants belly rubs cuddles and treats. Chestnut enjoys both indoor and outdoor time and adapts easily to different environments. He is very friendly with other dogs and currently lives with another dog Benji (5) who is a Doberman and Beagle mix. They are extremely close and balance each other well with Chestnut being more laid back and Benji having higher energy. If possible we would love for them to stay together as they have formed a strong bond. Chestnut is food motivated and does well on a dry food diet with occasional wet food and plenty of treats.

Story
Looking to rehome him. He was a rescue from some years ago and it spawned longer. Very lovable and cuddly most of the time. Sometimes, he can be a lot. He is house trained but if he eats too much (rich food) and drinks too much he will go in the house despite all the training and treats. He knows commands but can be a bit impatient. Although he does pull on his walks(he has leashes for this) he does fine for the most part on walks. Usually goes as soon as he gets out there. Very sweet with children and generally just curious. In full transparency the reason I am finally rehoming him despite delaying it after his initial rescue; He bit my other dog again and I unfortunately have to make the choice. He can be food aggressive with dogs but if separated is fine. However just recently he unexpectedly bit my dog again non food related and he’s just too much bigger for me to take the chance again. He is a loving dog and I’d like to take this route rather than the alternatives of course.
