Story
Imagine coming home to someone whose whole world lights up when you walk in. That's our 8-year-old boy – a gentle, devoted soul who just wants to be near you. His perfect day? An outdoor adventure, a sunny patch of yard, and you nearby. What makes him great: House-trained, gentle with furniture, and quiet (neighbors will thank you) Sunbathes happily in the yard and stays put – no fence needed Lives for walks – (Ignores other dogs entirely) Good with kids, bonds deepest with adults Sleeps through the night (no 2AM wake ups!) Very compliant Zero aggression, ever He grazes at his own pace and thrives on togetherness – he wants to be your constant companion. Our young kids mean we can't give him all the devoted attention he deserves, and that breaks our hearts. Ideal for someone home often who loves walks and wants a dog who'll adore them. We're carefully choosing his next chapter – this is about finding him the life he's earned. Want to be someone's everything? Let's talk.

Story
I adopted Mac from Ewenity which specializes in herding dogs. One year ago, I suffered a stroke which affected my mobility. As a result, I made the decision to move from Florida to be closer to my family in the Chicago area. It is nearly impossible to find a condo that will allow dogs and I would have difficulty in exercising Mac as well as taking him outside for needed bathroom breaks. Mac is well-trained and has a loving personality. He is 14 years old but still has a lot of energy and loves to go for walks. I would love to find someone who will interact with Mac and is comfortable with an older companion.

Story
Sancho is an 8 year old Belgian Sheepdog. He grew up with another dog, cats, kids, and for a time rabbits. He is good with dogs, and loves humans. He is also a clown, and is purebred to champion parents who passed all health and hip checks pre breeding He moved with us from Alaska to Florida a year ago, and isn't enjoying it much. He much preferred laying in the snow to walking in 100 degrees, and is afraid of thunder. The house we ended up settling in has no yard, and I'm about to start traveling for work. He would do great in a home with a yard, and to be taken hiking in a cooler climate. He then wants to be inside with his family, as he has been a family dog since a pup. Being allowed on a couch would make him so happy! He also developed allergies here in Florida, so we've been giving him a shot for them every 6 weeks. He isn't toy motivated, but definitely treats. He will need to get a dental in the next few months, we usually do this once a year. Adopt fee is towards transport

Story
Luna is a Husky/Samoyed mix. Luna is a beautiful, fluffy, expressive dog with a sweet and sensitive personality. She loves attention, pets, and especially snuggles, and once she bonds with you she becomes incredibly loyal and affectionate. She can be a little skittish at first, so she needs a patient owner who will give her time to feel safe and adjust at her own pace. She does best in a calm, stable home with someone who understands or is willing to learn husky behavior. Luna is also vocal in the classic husky way and will talk and sing, making her entertaining and full of personality. She is looking for a home where she will be loved, given attention, and allowed to build trust. In return, she will be a devoted companion who loves to stay close and cuddle.
