Stormy is a 2 year old Pomsky that is a sweet and energetic bundle of joy. She is very energetic and loves to play most of the day. She's a fearless dog and gets along with every animal and human.

She can thrive in any home where she can have a lot of attention. She gets along with all animals. She is house trained, crate trained and knows basic commands.

Story
Max is a great dog. but he needs more attention than we can provide. He's the perfect dog for someone who is home often or has the time to play with him. He is 5 years old and has been part of our family since day one. We got him during COVID because we thought our golden retriever needed some company, and at the time, our 4-year-old wanted a new puppy. Our family has grown, and now we have two daughters with very busy schedules that prevent us from giving Max the attention he deserves. He tends to be shy around new people, but once he warms up, he enjoys being petted. He loves playing with toys and enjoys playing catch.

Silverado is a ball of Joy and a great family dog, he’s only 9 months old, house trained and great with other animals, sadly we are moving into a smaller home and we are not allowed to have such a large dog, we would love for him to go to a loving home, and bring others as much joy as he’s brought my wife and I.
