Good with kids, Not good with dogs, Not good with cats, Needs experienced adopter,
Story
We got Panda for my autistic granddaughter who loves her so much!! Panda loves hugs and snuggles and knows when you are having a bad day. I have severe anxiety and she knows when I am struggling. She is very protective of my grandkids and will let you know when there is a threat. She is a sweet girl, but doesn’t get along with my husbands dog lately and is terroizing my daughter’s cat. She would be great for someone who needs a support animal and willing to train her properly. We just don’t have the resources. I would want a letter from a vet and a rehoming fee of $50. I want her to go to someone who will love her and give her a solid chance.

Story
Dakota is a young adult probably 3 years old. He weighs about 65 lb. When he arrived he was heartworm positive. He has completed treatment as is doing great. Dakota is friendly but can be distrustful of strangers at first. He walks well on leash and will sit when asked. He can pull a bit. I use a training collar on him. He is well mannered. He will jump up but I've not had him put his feet on me. He loves attention and enjoys going for hikes with me. He would become a devoted, protective companion. All of our pets are spayed/neutered, current on vaccines, heartworm tested negative (on monthly heartworm and flea preventive) and are microchipped. Upon adoption, the microchip will be registered with your contact information and you will be eligible to activate a free 30 day health insurance policy.

Story
Murray's estimated birthdate is June 2021. He is a returned adoption due to illness in family. They could no longer care for him. He is crate trained and housebroken. He walks well on leash if using a "gentle leader". He can be very strong but is compliant with this type collar. He is very friendly and enjoys attention. He loves going for walks/hikes. He gets along well with other non dominant dogs. He would do best in a home without cats. He would enjoy an active family. All of our pets are spayed/neutered, current on vaccines, heartworm tested negative (on monthly heartworm and flea preventive) and are microchipped. Upon adoption, the microchip will be registered with your contact information and you will be eligible to activate a free 30 day health insurance policy.

Winnie  is a sweet sweet girl that we guess to be about a year and half old, and weighs in at 33 lbs .  She is a barker and will let you know if anything is happening around her. .  She loves to run and play - a very energetic and athletic dog that needs lots of play time.  she's independent, loves people but is low key on giving affection.  She has breathing issues that have been thoroughly investigated.  Her only medical need is a dose of meds once a day to help with her breathing issues.  Winnie loves children and would love to be a part of your family.     ##1836560##
