Story
🐾 Meet Bandit Bandit is a smart, energetic little guy with tons of personality packed into one puppy body. He’s more high-strung than his brother, but in the best way—he’s alert, curious, and incredibly intelligent. Potty breaks are a breeze with Bandit; he gets his business done immediately and efficiently, though he often tries to negotiate for a little extra outdoor time before heading back inside. In the evenings—especially around 9pm—he’s known to get the zoomies and show off his playful side. Bandit is very food motivated and learns quickly, though he can be a bit protective of his food, so he currently eats comfortably in his crate. He’s excellent on a leash, loves to cuddle once he settles, and is an absolute sweetheart with a big, lovable personality. Bandit and his brother Bullet were rescued from a drainage pipe beside a busy road, where they were found huddled together. That early bond is still part of who he is today—loving, resilient, and eager to form strong connections with his people.

Story
Shadow is a 10-month-old, mixed breed with a soft heart and gentle soul. He came in as a stray and was terrified when he first arrived, so scared he had to be carried because he pancaked to the floor. Since then, he has been slowly learning that people can be kind and life can be safe. Shadow is kennel trained, very quiet, and has had no accidents in his foster home. With patience and love, this sweet boy will blossom into a loyal companion for a family willing to help him continue building his confidence.

Story
Rescued from animal shelter in another county from another person who couldn’t keep him! So, I offered to keep him not knowing his background. We have a child of 9 and Boone is way to much energy for our child with adhd ! Plus, we have a smaller dog that scared to death of Boone( size). Boone is very high energy that we can’t contain. He hasn’t bit but, he does nip my child’s ankles! He can be very loving when things are calm around him. He reacts fast to other dogs barking and it scares us. We love him but, my health has taken a turn and I can’t handle him any longer! Pls someone who is experienced with his behavior and size of 57 lbs to give him a loving home. He is crate trained also!
