Story
We got Piper from a rescue as a puppy. She is 10 years old now. Piper is a very sweet dog as long as there is someone with her at all times. She isnt very active. She suffers from anxiety when left alone. My mom lived with us until last year and was home with Piper all the time but she has passed and we work full time and she suffers all day. She doesn't like a crate if no one is home but will tear things up if not in a crate. Piper needs a home where someone is home constantly. We love Piper and want her to be happy, but she just is not happy here because she is alone alot. We have another dog that Piper gets along with but that doesn't make her happy or help with her separation anxiety. Piper would thrive with a stay at home or retired person.

Story
We acquired Lily from a breeder almost three years ago when she was a few months old. She was shy at first but warmed up quickly. She is 3 years old and is the sweetest girl. We know she deserves the best which is why we are putting her up for adoption. Our schedules are too busy to properly care for her and pay attention to her. She is incredibly friendly and never shows any aggression. She loves to play and spend time with her humans, whether it be cuddling up on the couch to watch TV or going on a hike. She tends to eat everything she sees on the ground, combined with a bit of a sensitive stomach means she will have diarrhea sometimes. For the past two years she has become accustomed to at least two walks a day, each being at least 45 minutes. She is extremely protective of her home. Only barking at new people when she sees them for the first time, but when they stick out their hand and remain calm she sniffs them and ceases to bark.Her recall is decent.Fee is negotiable!

Story
Charlie is a loving dog. We found her abandoned at a park not long ago, and hoped we would be able to care for her as our own. Unfortunately, our family is not suited to give Charlie the life she deserves. She is energetic, loving, friendly, and curious! She gets along great with children, and though it may take more than an initial introduction, she gets along well with other animals as well. We have a large dog and a cat. She gets along with our large dog very well, and her curiosity sometimes gets her unwanted reactions from the cat, but nothing some time will not fix. She is not house trained which has been the largest hurdle for us, as my wife and I don’t have the time, and our son is not old enough to handle the responsibility on his own. Charlie needs someone with the time she deserves and the desire to give her dedicated love and care. Charlie would make a wonderful companion to anyone capable of giving her the time to learn and grow.

Story
Meet Emi Emi’s sleek, brindle coat is a thing of beauty and so magnificent to behold. Engaging, charismatic, gregarious, and spirited are the first things you sense about her from the moment she enters a room. Emi exudes a brand of joy that makes her impossible to resist! Not until you witness her graceful elegance and see a bit of frost around her muzzle, do you realize she is a senior beauty with an abundance of life experiences to share. She’s 8 years old and has found herself homeless, but she’s seen enough in life to know there’s still a wondrous journey ahead. She is a lover of people and she’d much rather be enjoying a fun adventure with you by her side on interesting walks or trips to the beach, than be left at home alone. She needs to be an only dog and is not suitable with cats. She is approximately 60 lbs. and seems unaware she has some arthritis and hip dysplasia. But as you can see, she enjoys playing with her toys and doing tricks for treats. Her healthy curiosity keeps her engaged in life’s adventures, though she also loves her beauty naps. Please don’t let her age deter you from considering giving her a home. Her heart is overflowing with love. If you are interested in Emi, please complete our adoption application in the link below.
