Story
Comet is a 2 year old border collie/lab/cattle dog mix. She is a very sweet and high energy dog. She is extremely loving, loyal, super smart, and friendly. She loves meeting new people and other dogs. She can be nervous and she gets separation anxiety, so we are looking for a home where she will feel safe and comfortable. Comet is very high energy and needs constant exercise and mental stimulation. Having these needs met is very important for her happiness. She loves to play and go on walks, and she would love to be your jogging or hiking companion! Comet is one of the most loving dogs you will ever meet. She will always stay by your side and give you lots of cuddles and kisses once she's ready to settle down for the day. She is crate and house trained, as well as spayed.

Good with kids, Good with dogs, Good with cats, Needs special attention, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
We are reaching out with a heavy heart to ask for help. He can no longer use his back legs. He is an 8-year-old Pit Bull Terrier who recently suffered a sudden paralysis due to IVDD. Nico is still continent and has a gentle, loving spirit. He is a candidate for surgery that could potentially mend his spine, but unfortunately, the financial burden is more than we can manage right now. We truly believe that, with a wheelchair and the right care, Nico can still enjoy a fulfilling life, with the right person. Nico has been my fiances best friend since his teenage years. This situation has been devastating for both of us. We work full time and also care for my disabled mother in law, which makes it even harder to provide Nico with the care and attention he deserves.

Story
We've been a foster family for Vinnie when his owner had to relocate. He’s 12 years old, but still spunky and has grown from having “a person” to being a true family dog. He’s submissive to larger dogs, so he gets along great with our labradoodle.
