Story
We got Koko as a puppy. She went to puppy training. Her daddy passed away from cancer in 2023 and I have to sell our house and cannot take her. She loves playing fetch with a tennis ball! (Must use two at a time!) She loves attention and saying hello to everyone! She would do best in a home as a single pet. (She had a brother who passed away 2 months ago and she just needed to have all the attention) She would do great with a home with a large space to run around in! She is crate trained and knows when it's time to go in.

Story
Jada is 4 years old. She has been with me for the past year. She was left with me after a break up and they never came back to get her. She is a very sweet, loving dog. She very seldom barks. She loves everybody. The only issues are is that she has a lot of medical issues and I can no longer afford to care for her. Eventhough she was not my dog, l treated her like she was but I can no longer afford to take care of her. She needs medical attention that I can't afford to provide any longer. I just want her to go to a loving home and to get the medical help she needs.

Story
Archie came to us via a family friend who was elderly and couldn't keep him where he was moving to. We took him in and he's been a lovely dog, getting along well with our cats and our now two young sons. Unfortunately our current home is smaller than he needs to remain active and has taken to excessively grooming himself out of boredom. We want him to go to a nice home with plenty of space to run and play while we try and find that for ourselves in the future, but for the time being it's not fair to him. He's a very sweet dog and loves to play with other dogs when he has the opportunity!
