Story

KIRA Lynn is about 10 months old lab/bully mix, she has been spayed and is up to date on all her vaccines. Kira is super sweet with everyone and all animals. She is hugged and kissed every morning when we wake up and she gets out of cage to go outside to the yard. As soon as she sees another dog she wants to play. She walks on a leash pulling in the beginning until she gets tired and walks normal. Not even a grain of aggressive in her, other dogs can be aggressive towards her and even nip her and she just looks at them trying to figure out what they are doing. She is a super happy dog, very playful. Kira does have intense energy and it would be ideal for her to be trained.  She does great inside cage, she sleeps and eats her food inside her cage. She will not poop or pee inside house, she goes out 3 times daily for her necessities. She is extremely food motivated. She knows the sit command. She loves to ride in the car, she sits in the front sit and sticks her head out but due to her energy would be best to have her secured in the car. She will jump 4 foot fence to go to the car and wait for the door to open. She still young and needs supervision being she will chew on things if she doesn't have her toys and/or bones around. Mia has been around cats and is not aggressive towards them. Mia will be the best loving dog any family could ever ask for.  December 24, 2023, 12:04 am

Story

Rocco is the sweetest soul you will ever meet. He is very mild manner and just loves attention and wants to be around people. He was found at a construction site with his girlfriend, Mia Lee, and was a bit over protective of her around other dogs. When he is not near her he loves all dogs and enjoys being around them. He walks great on a leash and is house trained. He loves the AC and does not like being in the heat too long. He is a couch potato kind of dog. He will make a great addition to any family. Rocco was tested with a mild case of heart worms about 6 months ago and his vet recommended the slow kill process so he just needs to gets his flea and heart worm treatment every 4 weeks and soon he will be tested again to ensure he is heart worm negative. December 24, 2023, 12:04 am

Mia Sue

Dutch Shepherd

Female, Young

Hollywood, FL

Size

(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Details

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

Story

Mia Sue is a 2-1/2 Dutch Shepherd, she has been spayed and is up to date on her vaccines. Mia is extremely smart & sweet. She has all the energy in the world when you want to play but also has a laid-back side where she is happy just laying around next to her humans. Mia is quick and eager to learn and is highly motivated by treats. She knows basic commands, but you could probably train her to make you an omelet, lol.  She is great with other dogs but if a dog becomes aggressive with her after a few times she may snap a bit to let them know enough is enough. She is very curious when she sees small animals and goes bananas when she sees squirrels. She has not been exposed to cats so it’s hard to say how she would react. Mia’s breed is not a common one and she herself is one of a kind. She will make a great addition to any family and looks forward to finding her forever family.December 24, 2023, 12:04 am
