Story

Mila is an amazing dog. We got her in December 2023. She just needs more attention than we can give her. She loves humans and loves to be indoors and/or outdoors. She is still very curious (gets into everything) when left alone too long, and we honestly don't have the time to give her the attention she needs and deserves. She is potty trained and crate trained. She is great with kids of all ages (loves humans) takes about a minute for her to warm up to someone. If you have any other questions please feel free to ask.

Size

Details

Good with kids, Not good with dogs, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Notus, is an amazing and loving dog! He could not be happier around people. We adopted notice quite recently and quickly realized we can not accommodate him the way he deserves...It is hard to admit to being someone who rushed into this, but it is only fair to him to find an amazing home that can. For that reason, happy to pass along some of the resources we'd bough as well. Below is a portion of the shelter description about him: It’s hard not to fall in love with Notus. He has such a sweet and affectionate demeanor to him. He is an expert on leash. His favorite activities include, soaking in the sun, leisure walks, and being brushed to look his best. Notus has displayed somewhat of a prey drive so he probably wouldn’t be the best fit for a home with cats or other small animals. This sweet boy cannot wait to meet you and hopes you come and visit him soon. Notus is neutered, current on vaccinations, and microchipped.

Auggie loves people. He is great at home, uses a doggie door, is house broken, and can be left alone with no problem. We were told he was crate trained, but has not been in a crate for the last 9 months. His only dislike is having his nails trimmed. His bed and bowls, toys, etc will go with him.

Story

Get ready to meet Fusion. This 11-month-old German Shepherd mix is on a quest for a new kingdom to rule - your home! Fusion is a neutered charmer with a knack for playfulness and a heart as big as his appetite for treats. He's a master of tail-wagging diplomacy and gets along famously with other animals and pint-sized humans alike. But beware, beneath that fluffy exterior lies the soul of a guard dog extraordinaire. Fusion takes his job of protecting his kingdom (your house) seriously, whether it's from pesky squirrels or suspicious mail carriers. So, if you're in need of a furry friend who will keep you entertained with his antics and make you feel safe with his loyal bark (and maybe the occasional slobbery kiss), then Fusion is the pup for you. Just be prepared for a lifetime of laughter, love, and the occasional toy that mysteriously goes missing!
