Story
We adopted and got provided professional training for her. She is exceptionally well-mannered, obedient, and gentle, with no destructive habits. She responds reliably to basic and advanced commands, walks off-leash, and recalls instantly. Wonderful with children, she adores other dogs and delights in daily walks. We seek a loving, active home ideally with another dog for the companionship and engagement she thrives on.

Story
**Chance is not a purebred ** Needs a Fenced yard to run and play**Chance is a loving dog but needs parents to give him a lot of attention. He has a bit of a jealous streak...As far as we know he could be good with other dogs & cats. We have tried meet & greets and he just barks. I would not recommend young children, Older yes, little ones are too quick Chance is not neutered! As this could be a reason for many things. He does have nervous anxiety inching. We also live in a 55 older community & it is hard with the leash law to allow him to run as he should be able to, we take him to the dog park when able. He is crate trained, house and lease trained. Chance is still young and could be the best fur baby. He is loving, loyal, a handsome boy and loves attention, We took him in to adopt from a friend. As he grew we couldn't keep up with his needs as needed.

Story
Winnie is a playful pup with a-lot of energy and needs space to run all of the energy out. She is 10 months old. She is a little shy at first and will act like a big old dog when barking but will run if a leaf blows. She loves tug of war and treats. Will need durables toys or else she will eat them. Not fully potty trained but if on a schedule there is not to many accidents. She is crate trained so long as treats are involved and she cant be left out alone yet as she is a puppy and might chew things up.

Story
Buddy is a sweet & lovable dog who loves his person. He doesn’t sit on your lap but right next to you, snuggling close or laying on his back and looking adorable. I love this little guy & he has never had an accident-not once. He loves his walks & I’m sure he’d love a yard because he has lots of energy. He is reactive. He goes a little bonkers when he sees rabbits, squirrels or other dogs. I work full time but I am 70 and it’s challenging to walk him. He loves my older dog, a hound, and they aren’t what I’d call bonded but they love each other. But walking both of them is something I’m struggling to do and the bigger one (not Buddy) has pulled me down once and it’s why I have to make the difficult decision to rehome Buddy. He’s heartworm negative, neutered, gets groomed regularly and is up to date on all shots. I’m just hoping to find a great home and family and maybe a yard for a sweet boy that is a little too much for me.
