Story
We rescued these four blue heeler/catahoula puppies from a farmer who was going to shoot them in order to get rid of them. They were in horrible shape- filled with worms and full of fleas. They were being fed scrap bones and were so sick. We have spent the last two months getting them healthy. They have received all vaccines, been dewormed numerous times until the worms were gone, and we got them spayed and neutered. Black female puppy ROSA White Female Puppy (one blue eye) LUNA White and Brown Male Puppy BENNY The puppies are about 16-18 weeks old. They have been trained to sleep in the crates. We have walked them on leashes. They have been around other dogs (big dogs like a husky and a pit) and children as well. Luna has the personality of wanting to be an alpha female. Rosa is very sweet and follows you everywhere. Benny was the most timid but has flourished. We are open to rescues helping rehome them as well.

Story
Nala is an 8-month-old sweetheart looking for an active, loving home. She was adopted in November, but my senior dog has become territorial and hasn’t adjusted to having a puppy around. Nala deserves a home where she has space to play and continue growing. She’s crate trained, on a potty schedule, walks well on a leash, and does great in public. She loves playing with my 3-year-old dog and has never shown aggression. She hasn’t been around children yet. Kennel, leash, food, and grooming kit included.She deserves the best forever family!

Story
THE CUTEST BASENJI YOU'VE EVER SEEN! We adopted Charlie from an AKC (American Kennel Club) breeder. I have all her paperwork to show she's a pure breed Basenji. She was born on 1/14/2026. She is shy at first but very quickly adapted and became playful. She has an adorable underbite. Will come with a small crate and a large bag of puppy food; as well as all her AKC (American Kennel Club) paperwork. Very comfortable around kids and other dogs, even large dogs; just needs time to warm up. Healthy, happy, pup. Unfortunately, we cannot keep her.

Story
My children and moving and are not able to bring their dog to the new place and I’m helping them find a loving home. He is an incredibly smart, well-mannered, and affectionate dog who is happiest in a calm environment. He would do best as the only dog or with another laid back companion, as he doesn’t enjoy living with very hyper dogs. He has had some skin irritation recently, which we believe is related to environmental allergies from their backyard. He also has a sensitive stomach, so he doesn’t eat table scraps. However they have been feeding him meals of rice, chicken, and vegetables they prepare weekly along with dry food. He is house trained, knows his manners, and is a loyal companion who loves being with his people. We’re committed to finding him a safe, loving home where he’ll receive the care and attention he deserves. If you think you might be a good match or have any questions, please reach out.
