Story
Maximo will be a year old on July 27, 2026. He was born and had free run of a half acre of land. Now he is cooped up in an apartment . He is a sweet dog. I have done a little training with him—simple things like “sit”, “no”. He likes to wear his harness to go for walks. He likes to be out, but still pulls on his leash and barks and jumps around if he sees other dogs or cats or birds. I believe he is a smart dog and could be much better behaved with more training than I have time for. I have another dog that is a poodle mix and they get along well.

This beautiful angel is Athena. She is a year old Cane Corso mix. She is vaccinated but not spayed. She knows her basic commands and is leash trained.

She is a little energetic but nothing too bad. She is healthy and strong and has no medical problems whatsoever. She loves to play fetch and go on walks and runs. She loves getting belly rubs and she loves to rest her head on your feet or legs when she’s relaxed. She just needs a loving home who will take her in and give her all the love and care she deserves.
