Story
Daisy has been with us since she was 8 weeks old. Both her parents are pure bred in their own respects, a Chocolate Lab and a Goldendoodle. She came to us with a great personality and was very easy to train. At the time we had 2 other dogs and 2 cats and 2 young children. Daisy is currently 68lbs and is almost 2 years old. She is not spayed. She is up to date on her vaccines and is in great health. Her leash walking skills are still in progress, but she is very eager to be trained is small rewards. We are currently expecting our third child and cannot give the attention needed to continue her training and the love she needs. She has shown some aggression toward our other female dog (also not spayed) we have as well. We have taken time to rehabilitate their relationship, and she has shown promising results. She just needs more time an attention we cannot give her at the moment. Daisy would be a great addition to a family who loves to go for walks and has a lot of love.

Story
We took in Damian as a foster for a friend. He immediately was warm and welcoming to our home and toddler, especially keeping his boundaries with our toddler. He spent his puppy time around kids and was crate trained. Our home is an upstairs apartment where he did well with puppy pads and regular walks. Damian has escaped twice, both times were able to get him back but with difficulty. We believe he would benefit from a home with a yard, he needs more space than I can provide. After running after him the second time, I realized as I get further into my pregnancy I will not be able to go after him, especially if I have one or both children with me. I fostered Damian with the intention of adopting and now with a heavy heart am looking for a better life than I can give him. He is a really good listener, he responds best to a woman’s tone but will submit to the man of the house.

Story
This is Casey. He is half of a dynamic duo. Teddy is his brother and best friend. You will fall in love with him. He is a lovebug and playful. Teddy and Casey need to be TOGETHER. They are so bonded. His mom passed away and I am unable to keep them as I have two dogs already. This is really hard for me because he and Teddy are just the best and cutest dogs. I really hope I can find them the perfect home to live out their days. I believe they are microchipped and have all their shots up to date but will take them to the vet to confirm. Other than that they are both healthy boys. I am planning to move at the end of February so I need to find a good home soon. Please consider these to wonderful dogs as your new families pets. They will bring you happiness and joy. **Look up Teddy posted here as well.

Story
Peach has been with us since she was 7months old. She was rehoused to us because her previous owner had a difficult schedule and could not support her growing needs to play. We seamlessly joined our family and was a wonderful addition. At the time we had one senior dog and she seemed to bring him new life in his last years with us. Peach loves to run and play and she is VERY intelligent. She loves learning new tricks! She is reactive, and has a hard time in new environments with a lot of people and dogs. However we have seen her gain more confidence with every outing we expose her to. She LOVES the snow, long walks and snuggles. She is crate trained and potty trained. We will be expecting our 3rd child and feel she would do better in a home that can give her more attention and exercise. We love her dearly and hope she goes to home with a lot of love.
