Story
10lb 4 yr old crate trained Toy Manchester Terrier- Nico is a sweet loving boy. He lives with 2 older large breed dogs. He is too small to play with either of my larger breed dogs. I am hoping to improve his life and find him a home with a smaller friendly dog that he can bond and play with or someone that has more time to give him. He loves chasing the plastic bag on his lure course. His outdoor exercise is in a separate fenced area with the 2 large breed dogs. He is a barker with incredible hearing and alertness. He loves to sleep under the blankets and snuggle in your lap. He is smart and has good recall. Maintenance: He had a dental in September and requires daily brushing to prevent plaque build-up.

Story
Beauregard is an 8 month old Great Pyrenees. He is a big, smart boy who loves kids and other animals. He has completed an off-leash training program and knows basic commands and has excellent recall. Beau needs to be adopted by someone with room for him to roam. I'm looking for someone with land or a farm, where Beau can roam and be a guardian dog. He would do great with livestock or other farm animals.

Story
We found Harley abandoned by railroad tracks in December of last year. We’ve been keeping her at our house, but we want to find her forever home. She is extremely cuddly, sweet and amazing with children. She treats her one year-old son as her own baby. She is trained off the leash and is a really good listener. She gets the zoomies and loves to run outside. She is extremely loyal and has a soft, gentle personality. She’s very emotional emotionally in tune and picks up on people’s feelings. It takes her a second to get comfortable but once she is, she’s the sweetest dog.

Story
Rehoming due to my husband was diagnosed with Stage 3 Esophageal cancer and between hospital stays and dr appts, I can't devote the time to my beautiful dog. Bogey is 3 years old and weighs 75 lbs. He is house broken, crate-trained, and knows some basic commands. He does not get on furniture but will get on your bed when you are not around, lol! Once you tell him down, he obeys and gets down. He does not counter surf either. He is crate trained but needs to only be in crate for overnight sleep. He will do well with someone who is home all day. He needs a fenced in yard to run in and needs to be trained because he barks at everything. We were working on leash walking and does well until there is a dog or person. He is very loving and will be your best friend. With some training he will be the best dog ever and he is really a beautiful dog. It breaks my heart to have to give him up but it's not fair to not be able to give him my time.

Story
My brother had purchased her from a family who had babies of her breed back in 2015 or 2016 I believe. We were told shes German Shepherd mixed with Labrador. She is about 9 yrs old, she's really energetic, loves to play and be outside! And she loves company from people. Unfortunately, we all have busy schedules and can't play as much with her anymore and we also recently moved with family and apparently my aunt is allergic so we can not keep her. Also we dont want her to go to an animal shelter because we believe she will be good with another family that will give her the time and love that she needs. Thanks for reading.

Story
Sugar is an amazing dog. She’s received a lot of training from an experienced trainer and is great on a leash. She is house trained, does not chew on things and is overall a great dog. She does have a lot of energy. We recently had a daughter and she is not getting the exercise she needs. She really needs a yard, long walks or another dog to play with to get her energy out. It breaks my heart to give her away, but we simply don’t have the time or bandwidth to meet her needs. We would love to rehome her to a good family in need of a well trained dog.
