Story
Her name is ziva and she is a very friendly happy dog. Her best friend is a Yorkie that she grew up with she's a year old just turned a year this past March. She loves to go for car rides and walks. I've taken her to Michigan she is a retreat road dog. She can play or sleep.. never seen a dog Her age sleep so much she loves her naps. Loves a good bone and a good trail. I want my baby to go to a good home. I am moving and she cannot come with me. She is great with other dogs. Big or small she loves to play anf is gentle with my other dog a Yorkie. Whoeever gets her will have a great companion. It breaks my heart I cannot keep her where I am moving I waited as long as I can and cannot find a place that will accept animals. If you want a cuddle bug and a walking partner and a passenger princess she is your girl. A great dog.. ziva is the goddess of love and fertility and she really is a big Ole baby..

Story
My wife and I adopted Chuy as apuppy (he is now young adult). Then, we were in excellent health; but now we have major health problems as humans recovering from a stroke (my wife) and monitoring and medication for cancer (me). Because of my wife's stroke, she struggles with balance and walking and my age (84) is a huge challenge for dedicating all that is needed for this beautiful baby. He deserves to with humans not struggling with medical issues, the way my wife and I are. He is a very sweet and affectionate young adult dog, up-to-date with all vaccines, never bitten anyone or anything, excellent around children, family friends, and other dogs. We raised him with positive training treats for good behavior. He responds to commands like sit and come. And if you like to throw a frisbee or ball, you will immediately be his best friend! He LOVES to fetch anything and will never tire of doing that. Once, we played fetch for almost an hour and he was in heaven.
