Story
I adopted Milo when he was 8 months old from an animal shelter. He is currently 2 years old and the reason I have to re-home him is because my landlord will not allow me to keep him any longer, I am not in the financial position to move and I do not want to take my dog to the shelter, so I made the decision to find him a good loving home. He is a loving and cuddly dog, he needs to be introduced to other people and other dogs, but after he is well introduced he is a very loving, loyal, and playful dog. I would prefer if he goes to a home with no kids just because he is a big dog weighing 72 pounds and very energetic. PLEASE IF ANYONE IS WILLING TO GIVE HIM A GOOD HOME PLEASE CONTACT ME IMMEDIATELY, BECAUSE I ONLY HAVE 2 WEEKS TO FIND A HOME FOR HIM.

Story
Toby is a very sweet chocolate yorkipoo. Unfortunately, Toby has severe separation anxiety. It has been that way from the first day we met. It has gradually improved over the past year but still can be difficult to manage. Toby would do amazing with someone who can be around a lot. (A family, retired individual, SAHM, work-from-home situation, etc. would definitely be a great fit for Toby.) I live alone and have a busy work schedule. I gave up one of my jobs recently (for various reasons) which has helped Toby to have company. But I can’t do that forever. Toby does amazing with my friend’s family (4 people, several pets) and I think it’s because he always has human contact (someone is usually at home or if everyone is away, it’s very brief). He LOVES to be held and cuddled. In fact, he’ll almost sigh in relief at being held.

Story
Had the dog from a pup. Was found in the desert. The dog is extremely friendly good with other dogs, I have yorkies and he gets along with them. I have never heard him growl ever. The yorkies get close to something hes chewing and hes never been aggressive. I do have to get rid of him because my yard is too small for him. Ive had him for 7 years. Hes healthy, strong, loves walks, and loves attention and affection. Will be heartbreaking to see him go but he needs more attention and affection and a bigger yard than we can give him now since we moved and my jobs interfere with my spare time. Please take him to a good loving home. Very good with kids, but he is a big dog and is clumsy sometimes lol but he is extremely friendly. Really good dog!!

Story
Found him roaming the streets. Took him in and he adapted well. He lets you know when he needs to go out. He doesn’t like wearing a harness or leash, but I gather these things are new to him. The vet said he is around two or three. He’s a big cuddler and likes to lick your hand as a thank you. He needs a home with someone who likes lap dog. I will be losing my housing at the first of the year and think he deserves an actual home not the back seat of a car.
