Story
Brandy is a sweet, lovable 2.5 year old dog. She is fun and energetic, but she also knows how to chill. She loves to cuddle and hang around people. She is also independent and enjoys roaming the backyard. She is fully potty trained, is good on a leash and knows how to sit and lay down.. Brandy is great with my neighbor's boys (5 and 8). She is also good with my other dog - they sleep on my bed together, and play around inside and outside. She is great. until there is food around that doesn’t come from her bowl or my hand. She has fought with my other dog several times over food on the coffee table or a piece on the floor. She is submissive in every way except that one. I can’t take a chance that she won’t attack my other dog again. I am desperate to find her a good home. Rescues I’ve contacted say they won’t fake her and that I should have her euthanized…I won’t do that!! Please,, if you are looking for an only dog, take a chance on her! She will melt your heart!

Story
Meet Belle! A beautiful 4yr old Bully Mix (60–70 lbs) with a heart of gold and one captivating ice blue eye. Belle is incredibly smart, knows many commands, and has ESA/Service Dog experience. She is current on shots, spayed, and microchipped. Belle loves to be heard which makes her a loyal protector. She’s very friendly and loving once she warms up, loves to cuddle, house/crate-trained and loves car rides. She’s awesome with kids! She does well in public but can be skittish around certain things. She loves chasing lasers, chasing balls (especially "chew-proof" Chuck-It balls!), and going to the dog parks. She needs an active home for exercise. Notes: Belle needs slow intros to people/dogs and will chase cats. The $75 adoption fee is not set and MAY be negotiated depending on the adopter/circumstances. Reason for Rehoming: Due to a divorce, Belle needs a home with the constant love she deserves. She is an absolute sweetheart and a wonderful addition to any family!

Story
Rufus is such a good boy. Very well behaved, house trained and adaptive. He has lived in large homes with large yards and small apartments. He is good with children, cats and other dogs. He is about 7 years old and is happy being lazy at home, but he still has the energy of a puppy when playing or running. My favorite dog ever ❤️. Unfortunately we are in a very difficult time financially, and need to move. We cant find a rental that will fit our needs and allows pets. I love this dog, but I have to put my son, wife and elderly mother first and find us a place to live. If you can provide a good home for Rufus, I assure you, you will love this dog and gain a best friend. We Unfortunately need to find him a home ASAP, as our current lease end in April.
