Story
Meet Lilo! Lilo is a 1-year-and-6-month-old male mixed-breed dog, born April 29, 2025. He weighs 22 lbs and has a beautiful brindle coat — tan with black striping and a white chest. Lilo is very playful, great with children and great with other dogs, and he is a very good guardian who will alert you if something is not right. He would be perfect for a house with a large yard. He is not good with cats. Lilo is being rehomed because his owner's rental does not allow pets. His vet records are from The Pet Stop Mobile Clinic (July 31, 2025 visit: Rabies 1-year, DA2PP #1, Bordetella intranasal, deworming and a wellness exam). He has no microchip on record. Please note: his 1-year rabies vaccine expired July 31, 2026, so the new owner will need to update it with a booster.

Story
Kobe is an 8 year old pit bull terrier. He is loving, sweet, and cuddly. We retrieved Kobe from the animal shelter when he was a puppy and have loved him ever since. Now, our family is growing and we have three little children, two toddlers and an infant. With one of our children having high allergies, we had to make the decision to send Kobe to another home. Kobe is such a great companion. He’s playful and still has lots of energy. He’s obedient and such a joy to have around. We’ve taken great care of our furry baby and want to send him to a home that will love him in the same ways we have. He deserves great humans!

Story
Apollo is a 9-year-old, medium-sized dog with a beautiful chocolate-brown and white coat. We’ve had him since he was a puppy, and he has been part of our family for many years. Apollo is a domesticated house dog who is accustomed to living indoors. He goes outside to use the bathroom and will let you know when he’s ready to come back inside. He is calm, sweet, and lovable. Apollo is vaccinated but has not been neutered. We are looking for a loving, responsible home where he will receive plenty of care, attention, and affection. We hope to find a family who will welcome him as part of their family and give him a safe, comfortable home where he can enjoy his golden years surrounded by love. Apollo deserves a home where he will be cherished, cared for, and loved as much as any family member. ❤️
