Details

Good with kids, Good with dogs, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

My mom first acquired Zodo about 7 years ago. Unfortunately, as my mother has aged, she is unable to continue caring for Zodo. It has been a difficult realization for her. Zodo is 16 years old. She is a spry little thing for her age. Surprisingly, she is a very active dog. She has no known health problems except that she is missing some teeth. Zodo needs a home where she can come and go outside freely as she frequently needs to go outside to go to the bathroom. If Zodo needs anything more of, it's walking. My mom has been unable to give Zodo the activity she needs. I hope Zodo ends up in a home where she gets regular exercise, a soft bed to sleep in, and nice people to care for her.

Story

Snoopy is amazing dog. He’s so friendly and sweet. He loves people and to cuddle under the blankets. I’ve had him since he was a puppy and he’s now 14 with no known health issues. However, my wife is severely allergic and keeping him has become untenable for us. We have tried everything, but her health is really suffering.

Details

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

Story

Parris is a sweet dog and does not require much but she is aggressive with other dogs. It is becoming increasingly worse the older she gets, I have two other dogs in my house and I am breaking up dog fights a couple times a week. She has been like this since we bought her. She loves to lay in the sun and sit next to you in her bed. She really does not require much work except an occasional belly rub and loves to be brushed.'We have had her 10 years and she is up to date on all her shots. She recently had several teeth removed so we now put water in her food to soften it. the must haves are a nice bed for her to lay in, she really does not like to sit on the floor. She will go for walks but they are small and she can't be out in the sun for too long due to their compromised breathing, She is about 42 pounds. It will be hard to have her go but I just cant deal with the fighting any longer. And in saying that I can assure you she has never hurt or even attempted to harm a human.

Rev is a sweet goofy loving boy who has not had it so easy. He has gone through multiple homes and was abused by some. I was able to take him in for a few months and give him the love he deserves. He does have separation anxiety that I have been working with him on and he has come a long way. He is great with other dogs and loves to make friends. Rev is full of energy and has so much love to give. He is a loyal and compassionate dog who just needs someone to love him as much as he will love you.

Details

Good with kids, Good with dogs, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Hello. So my daughter bought Beaux in February of 2025 as a puppy. She was working from home at that time, lived on her own and wanted a companion. That all changed in August of 2025 when she changed her job and needed to be in the office full-time. She brought Beaux to me in CO and I've been taking care of him for the past few months. He's really a sweet dog, crate trained and potty trained but I'm not able to leave him at home everyday while I go to work so he spends most days in doggy day care. I would prefer to see him in a loving home where he gets proper exercise and lots of attention.
