Cocktail was born in January 2020.I acquired Cocktail from a husky breeder in Michigan when he was 8 weeks old.Cocktail is surprisingly a very quiet husky, and he doesn't house break.He is very friendly to everyone.My 1-year-old son was discovered to be allergic to dog, so we have to find a new home for Cocktail.We want to find a family that can take Cocktail out to play and treat him like a member of the family.

Story
Astro was brought to us by a neighbor that found him abused and abandoned as a puppy. He was very malnourished and we brought him back to health and now he is this chonky 6 year old boy. He is my elderly mom’s dog and he has unfortunately not been getting along with our older dog Cosmo. We have constantly had to seperate or stop Cosmo from hurting Astro. Cosmo is 10 years old and has high anxiety and gets irritated very quickly now. Astro would need a home where he can run and play and be his spunky playful self without fear of being bullied by another dog. We have had him for 5 years and love him dearly. So we want him to go to a loving home. He does not know when to stop eating, so we have to watch him when he eats. He loves toys and short walks. We professionally groom his once every 3 months. He is prone to ear infections and has a sensitive stomach that is his only health problem. We have him on a specific kibble.

Story
Blue is an australian cattle shepherd just under a year old-he's full of energy and has a lot of love to give.My MIL currently has two senior dogs at home, and even though she's tried a lot of different things to help everyone adjust, Blue's playful energy just isn't a great fit with his older housemates. She also had knee surgery not too long ago and isn't able to walk him or give him the exercise he needs.This isn't a decision she's making lightly, she's put in a lot of effort trying to make it work and just wants what's best for him. Blue would do great in a home with people who have the time and energy to match his, whether that's an active family, kids, or other playful dogs. He's neutered, microchipped and up to date on his vaccines.

Story
Energetic, loving, and happy dog looking for a new home. He does require regular exercise and an active environment. While I haven’t been able to fully train him on leash walking, he does very well with commands, free play, and listening overall.He knows commands such as sit, stay, fetch, bring it back, go inside, and responds well to his name. He’s obedient, playful, and good around kids.I originally got Boba so he could grow up alongside my children, but over the last few years life circumstances have changed. my health has declined and managing multiple health issues while providing for my children has made it difficult to continue giving him the time and care he deserves.This decision has not been easy, but I truly want to find him a stable, loving, and proper home where he can continue to thrive and receive the attention, exercise, and affection he deserves.
