Story
Zeus was given to me by a family friend because he had to much energy for their toddler (who was just learning to walk) . Zeus is very spunky, very playful, loves to run . Zeus is a very good cuddler , he is good around older children (ages 4+) he is an escape artist, some may say Houdini. But overall he’s a very good fur baby !

Story
I acquired my dog when they were first born and they’ve been a loving part of my life ever since. From the start, they showed a gentle and affectionate nature, quickly settling into home life and becoming a loyal companion. My dog is currently 2 years old and has an easygoing personality. He appreciates routine, comfort, and a peaceful environment where they can truly relax. They do best with people who enjoy a laid-back companion and understand the joy of simply sharing space together. In a new home, I’m looking for a place where my dog will be treated like family—one filled with patience, kindness, and plenty of soft spots to nap. A calm household where they can feel secure, loved, and unhurried would be ideal. If I had to describe my dog in just a few words, I’d say they are gentle, affectionate, calm, loyal, and sweet-natured.

Story
Cardi was born June 2023. She is very curious, loves to hunt/chase lizards, frogs, mice, snakes, etc. I call her Dora the Explorer lol. She loves to run and play with the kids and other dogs. We have 5 rescue dogs including her and they all get along great, up until recently. She has started fighting with ONE of my other dogs and I dont know why. I dont know what the beef is all of the sudden. She has also started chasing and has killed two of our cats. She is fine with them in the house, but when they go outside, she chases them. And SHES FAST! I dont think her intention is to hurt them, shes just fast and strong. So she doesnt need to be around cats (or chickens). She is very hyper. She loves to stand up and hug you and cuddle. She is so sweet and loving, I just cant risk losing another cat. I would be happy to do a meet and greet!
