Rescued freya outside of a Walmart as someone was giving her away for free and didn’t want her to end up on the streets , She is 10 weeks old , full of energy and needs someone who can give her the attention and time she needs . We would love for her to go to a home that has possibly no other dogs as she is an energetic puppy in her teething stage . She is a brave , bold and mischievous girl but a loyal and lovable girl

Story
🐾 Looking to Rehome Snow 🐾 Hello everyone, we are looking to find a loving new home for Snow, our Husky/Labrador mix. He is a handsome, affectionate boy who is full of energy and personality. Snow does well with his small dog brother, but he is not good with cats. He would thrive in a home with a large yard where he has space to run and stay active. He is also a great guardian dog and very loyal to his people. Snow is about 4 years old & neutered. We are looking for a responsible, loving home that can give him the time, space, and attention he deserves. 🐶💙

Story
Nyxx Bean is the sweets and most loving 1.5 pup. She was my ex partners, I have a soon to be 10 year old pit bull that needs more care. Plus with working two jobs, it’s not fair to the puppy to not have proper play time attention, and walks. hoping to find her a home that can love her spend the proper time she needs as high energy. I very much love her but doing her a disfavor not having time. She needs more training, but potty trained, food motivated as well. Her 2nd birthday is in June.

Story
Rehoming due to relocating to another town. Looking for someone in CA, willing to drive. I have a GSP mix male (neutered) who just turned 2 this past November. Dad was purebred GSP, mom was mutt from pound. My husband unfortunately was part of a mass company layout (the oilfield he worked for for the last 10 years was bought out by another company and they let go 80% of the company). With that we are having to relocated to the Bay for a new job, we will have to be renting and unfortunately we can only take one with us with my ESA letter so we are taking our senior German shepherd to prevent him from ending up in a pound. My GSP mix is high energy and loves to run and play. He loves to play with the other dogs as well and is great with our kids. He does chase cats & other small creatures because of his DNA but it’s just a game of chase. He never “catches” them or attacks. However he’s highly trainable and can be used to hunt / fetch if that’s what you wanted to teach him an

Story
This little girl is Mamma Mia. She’s very difficult to get good pictures of because she stays glued to you.🤣 she’s very affectionate, playful, loving. Around 2yrs old, gets along with dogs, people of all ages. Crate trained and also does well freely in the house. Here is a little bit more about her. Meet Mama Mia – The Ultimate Velcro Dog! Mama is a sweet, affectionate girl who is ready to leave her past behind and become someone’s beloved fur baby. Before coming to us, she had one litter of puppies—two of whom are also available for adoption—but now it’s her turn to be the one who is pampered and adored. With her plush, soft coat that feels just like a plushy stuffed toy, Mama is made for cuddles. She’s spayed, up to date on vaccinations, and an absolute dream companion. While she enjoys playing with other dogs, her heart truly belongs to her person—she thrives on attention and just wants to be by your side. Mama is incredibly smart, listens intently, and will do anything asked of her. She follows directions beautifully and is always eager to please. Whether you’re looking for a snuggly couch buddy, a loyal shadow, or a gentle, loving soul to call your own, Mama is ready to fill that role with all her heart. Could you be the one to give Mama the love she’s been waiting for? Text or call us to learn more about her, and set up to meet her and see why she’s so special! 661-840-7052
