Story
I am a sassy girl who loves long walks on the beach! I was found roaming the streets near downtown, covered in fleas and frightened. No family came to claim me, but that's fine! I've been flourishing in my foster home! I enjoy the sun and sand. I do well with other pups, but get a little snappy if they get too close. I'm working on it! Will you be my furever family?

Story
He's a great young pure breed Boston terrier. A little bit big for a Boston, but he's a great dog. He has So much energy the only issue is he's been a little overprotective Of me and aggressive towards my wife and goes a bit crazy when somebody knocks on the door or if my wifes phone rings and just hard for me to leave the house without him, losing his mind. This is sad time for us to do this as we love him very much but this is what needs to be done for my wife and the household.

Good with kids, Not good with dogs, Not good with cats, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
We rescued Cody after seeing a social media post about a dog in urgent need. His previous owner had abandoned him in an apartment for nearly a month, leaving him malnourished and scared. Despite such a hard start, Cody has the sweetest heart. He became part of our family, loves our small child, and gets along well with our female Yorkie. Sadly, due to a new tenant policy from our landlord, we can no longer keep him, which breaks our hearts. Cody does have some separation anxiety and isn’t fully house-broken, though he uses pads well. He can also be uneasy around other dogs. He is a loyal, gentle companion who deserves a safe and caring place to continue healing and thriving. He has come so far, and with a little patience and a lot of love, he will flourish even more. We just want a safe, calm home where he can feel secure and cherished. Whoever adopts him will gain a loyal, grateful friend for life. We will provide food, food bowls & cage as well.

Story
Hank is a gentle giant. Although he is 80 lbs, he has no clue he is a big dog. He is so sweet, incredibly well behaved, on the chill side with occasional zoomies and spurts of energy. Would make an excellent cuddly buddy. He is good with dogs and eager to please. Walks great on leash, knows basic commands, and LOVES to play with his toys. If he needs independent time, he is very content in his bed playing with his toys.

Story
Andy is a sweet boy who's true colors are hidden behind fear. He needs an extremely patient home who is willing to work with him as he continues to gain confidence and trust. He does not do well to authority and everything with Andy is at his pace. He is excellent and very affectionate when hes not in a situation where he feels threatened. He does not like to be "forced" to go to a playpen or a crate, however, he will gladly walk in there himself with toys or a treat. He will never react without very clear warning signs, often displayed with tail tucked and a low growl showing he is uncomfortable. He can be extremely clingy , affectionate and cuddly, but on his terms. He does not yet enjoy being forcefully picked up, but if sitting on the floor he will leap right into your lap and beg for gentle pets. He seems to do well with smaller dogs, and since he has not been tested with larger dogs it would be best to not adopt out to that.
