Story
Alice was adopted from Santa Barabra animal services a year ago. Looking to re home her as her owner needs to move to assisted living. She was found on the street. We believe she had a litter, but is now spayed. She lives on a ranch and spends most of her time outside hanging out with the ranch manager. She gets walked 3x a week by her dog walker. The dog walker walks with her own dog. At first the dogs didn't get along but now they are friendly. Alice is protective of her human and her home. She will growl at first but quickly calms and seeks pets and attention from people. She has not been in public environments or around children. She is house trained. She gets regularly groomed and the groomer hasn't reported any negative feedback. She mostly has people around, but has been left alone for periods of time mostly outside in a high fenced area. At night she sleeps in a crate, happily. She has not shown any food or toy agression.

Story
ADOPT OR LONG-TERM FOSTER (2 YEARS) 📍Santa Ynez / Santa Barbara County, CA Agnes (staffordshire coonhound mix, approximately 3 years old) needs a new home or a dedicated long-term foster by August—I’ve loved and trained her for 3 years, but an upcoming relocation means I am heartbreakingly unable to bring her with me. She is a beautiful, intense working-breed mix who is an absolute dream for the right person! I am looking for a permanent adopter or a reliable, long-term foster who can commit to caring for her for the next 2 years. She is a high-drive, highly intelligent companion who thrives when she has a job to do. If you are a heavy hiker, trail runner, or hunter, she is unmatched. ✨ The good stuff (and there’s a lot): ✅ Fully off-leash trained (incredible recall) ✅ Loves long hikes, walks, and training sessions ✅ Deeply loyal, sweet, and a major cuddler with her pack ✨ Would make a phenomenal hunting partner with the right handler 🌲 ⚠️ Her specific needs: ▪️ Single-Pet Home

Story
Due to an upcoming relocation, I am heartbrokenly looking for a new home for my dog of 3 years, Agnes. She is a beautiful, highly intelligent working-breed mix who is an incredible companion for the right person. Agnes is an absolute dream on the trail—fully off-leash trained, loves long hikes, and thrives when she has a job to do. With her high drive and intense focus, she would make an excellent hunting partner with the right handler. While aloof with strangers, she is deeply loyal, sweet, and a major cuddler with her trusted "pack." Her Ideal Match: • Single-Pet Home: Must be the only dog (can be unpredictable with other dogs). • Experienced Owner: Needs a handler who understands high-intensity working breeds. She comes with all supplies, including a premium long-range Garmin e-collar to ensure continued off-leash success. If you are an active handler looking for a loyal partner, DM me with your experience.

Ivy is a 4 your old English bulldog, very loving and happy dog. She’s crate trained & loves other dogs & children. She goes for walk during the day but cause of her physique, she doesn’t go for very long walks. She’s purebred & she’s neutered.
