Story
Her name is Sonora sage. We got her from Arizona when she was two weeks old. We are very sad to give her up but my boys ( 3 ) lost their father and we had to sell our home. I’ve been hopping from Airbnb to the next because I cannot find a place for my dogs… I just want the best home possible. She’s LOVES people. All kinds. Especially children. She will go after cats and rodents in the yard if she see’s them. I guess that’s her nature. You can’t blame her. She is a cuddle bug and needs to sleep with you in bed.

Story
His name is Tucker Wayne and we have had him since he was 3 months old. We adopted him from a daschund rescue on the east coast. He was a Christmas present for our boys. He’s 10 years old and a great pup. Loves car rides, sleeps mostly and enjoys the ride. There was a tragedy in the family and I can not take him with me… it is very sad. But I hope to find him a loving home very soon. 🙏🏻

Story
Meet Harley 🐾4-Year-Old Female AussiedoodleThis is one of the hardest decisions I’ve had to make, but I want what’s best for Harley. She deserves a home where she can get more time, attention, exercise, and companionship than I’m currently able to provide.She would thrive in a home with:• A fenced yard to run and play• Possibly another friendly dog for companionship• Someone familiar with high-energy, intelligent breedsHarley is not being “given away.” Her safety and wellbeing are my top priority. Because of that, there will be a rehoming fee of $300 and I will be carefully vetting potential adopters. She will remain in my home and in my care until I find the right fit.This is not first come, first served — I’m looking for the BEST home for her.

Story
Looking 2 re-home our little Lily by Aug. 15, 2026. Lily is an active 6 year old, loving, sassy toy Spitz/American Eskimo breed w- hazel eyes. Applications of pet parents w-small male dogs will be reviewed 1st. My mom now has dementia now so Lily needs a new home. Lily needs loving & normal daily care, like private time w-her LambChop plushie doll (which beats up & mounts almost every morning) long walks, pets, scratches & brushing of her lovely soft, luxurious double coat. She is not a high maintenance dog, but her fur is. Keep this in mind as she sheds. But it's worth it when she jumps on the couch to snuggle w-you for TV time. Lily needs daily fur brushing, a bath once per week & a rump shaving (trimming) at least every 2 months. No one likes berries back there. I have trimmed her myself for the last 6 months & Lily is completely fine with it. I have a little muzzle I will give to you for free as well as a free a professional Wahl pet clipper & a smaller Wahl T-Blade trimmer.
