Story
Clara is little over a year. She is house train and is good with kids. She needs some more work on recall when unleashed but this breed is very stubborn. We unfortunately just do not have the time to accurately train her like we have with our older dogs in the past that was also before five kids. She rides well in the car and is crate train (though she is not a big fan of the crate). We received her from the rescue when she was only a puppy and we have worked with her ever since. She needs room to play. So a large back yard is preferred.

Story
I first got Oso in 2021 when he was a puppy. He is 2 1/2 yrs old. He is very friendly when meeting new people. He is also very playful and enjoys playing with his toys. Unfortunately I am moving into an apartment that does not allow dogs. I am looking for a home in which they can dedicate him time and give him lots of love.

Story
I want to find a great home for an amazing dog. She’s a female two-year-old German Shepherd, she’s cream, and a smoky silver gray saddle. She does great with cats, small dogs, I’ve had her at the barn on a leash around my horses, and she did great. She’s crate trained, house trained, has her shots, she’s knows to wait till you tell her to eat her food, she walks really good on a leash, she’s an all-around good dog. The only reason I’m looking for a new home for her tentatively is because she needs more time than I have available, things have changed in my life that have kept me from home longer periods of time and it’s not fair to her at such a young age to be in the house all the time, she would do great with a family that’s active that had kids, but she would also do great with someone that likes to relax at home and watch TV. She’s affectionate she loves sleeping on the bed with you lol, she’s quiet, rarely barks. She is a wonderful girl.

Story
Hugo (black n white) is a little over 2 years old, Bella (black n tan) is about 3.5 years old. They are very bonded and will need to stay together so please be sure you would be good with having both of them, there adoption fee is $400.00 each. They are spayed and neutered. This has been a very difficult decision for me but I need to do this for them. I used to be able to bring them to work with me so they were with me all day, that has changed and I have had to take on a second job so I am gone from really early in the morning until the middle of the night so they spend the entire day and night in the kitchen alone, that is not a good life for them. They are crate trained and if necessary pee pad trained. If this was just a short time then I would try and find a way but I cannot see this changing for quite some time and they deserve better than this. They love walks and Hugo really likes to play, Bella loves to lay on your lap or next to you. I will share more with the adaptor.

Needs special attention, Needs experienced adopter, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Had three dogs for 6 1/2 years. I tripped and fell on all three. Not sure what happened but Sadie grabbed the Chihuahua's legs, pulling her away from me, it was not a fight or attack. However we have another small dog in the home and cannot risk injury to her. We have three cats, a guinea pig and leopard gecko. Sadie has never been aggressive before. She is 7 1\2 and we adopted her at 11 months. She is generally a goofy, sweet, gentle giant who is protective of her pack. She is afraid of large dogs as she was attacked in the shelter prior to us adopting her and then again by another large dog. We've worked with her on her anxiety. She needs physically comfort when scared. She gets scared over loud noises, fireworks, and large dogs. She takes calming chews when needed. She had a large benign external tumor removed from her chest three years ago. She has several lumps but her doctor was not concerned due to her age and breed. She needs to be only pet w/experienced owner.
