Story
Avery was my late daughter’s fur baby. My daughter passed on August 7, 2026. I am unable to keep her which breaks my heart. Avery is a lovable, silly girl. She loves to sunbathe outside and scratch her back. She loves to play with other dogs of all sizes and will stretch out her body and crawl on her tummy to little dogs. She is an inside dog at night. She was raised in the city and has lived in the suburbs. She is leash trained and house trained. This past month has been hard on her since she lost her Mama and her normalcy. She needs someone to love her, have patience with her, and help her feel safe during her grieving time. It is very important that she goes to kind, loving home.

Story
We have temporarily rehomed Bolt from a friend who was unable to keep him in their apartment which had a no pet clause. He was born August 20 2025. He is about 50 to 60 pounds. He is current on all his shots. He was neutered the end of June of 2026 and was microchipped at the same time. He is a high energy dog that loves to run and play. He is good on walks and does not tug on the leash. He understands come, sit, down (drop), and roll over. He sometimes understands no. He loves to be hugged and snuggled. He is house broken. We have a large crate for him, food, bed, toys and about 5 more months of heart worm. He is a good dog, he is just too big for us. We would be happy to arrange meet and greet.

Story
Skye is 10 years old and 82lbs. She has lots of personality and loves a lot of attention and needs a lot of loving and play time. She loves to play fetch. She loves giving kisses and snuggles. She knows command's like sit, come, back up and gives you her paw to say hello. She is very vocal. We adopted her in Austin Texas at 10 weeks old. She has had her shots every year. She would be happier in a home with no other pets. We have another dog and they get along fine. But she's known him down a puppy. Needs Someone active. She likes to go for walks and sit in the sun. She does get skin allergies. I give her a the multi benefit 8 in 1 soft chews from Costco.

Chowie is a 2-year-old Pitsky/Labrador Retriever mix who is currently in foster care. He came into my care after his previous owners moved and were unable to take him with them.Chowie is:• Housetrained and learning leash manners• Good with children and most other dogs• Responding well to basic behavior training• Cuddly, playful, and very people-oriented• Self-sufficient with no attachment issuesChowie is a sweet, playful boy who also loves to cuddle! While he is good with other dogs, he does best when greetings are handled correctly. He is very independent and doesn't have attachment issues, making him a great companion for a household looking for a balanced dog. He needs a loving home with people who can continue his training and give him the time he deserves.💰 Rehoming fee: $50
