Story
This is Lily, aka silly Lily, I promised her I would find her best I could to love her as I do, Back in the summer we saved her and her brother(littermate) from a shelter, I very much with whole heart in, Thought never in all our years of pets had no issues, Thought we would face the “littermate syndrome” in recent weeks we have and seen its no longer safe or fair to them to keep them in the same home as devastating as this is Lily deserves to be happy with her special person with a fresh start she LOVES her zoomies running our FENCED yard she loves to chase butterflies or anything that catches her eye she does potty outside but still working on fully house broke Lily needs her person to have patience and love to continue teaching her manners as she is a very excited girl with lots of energy She is still a PUPPYwhen it’s time to play loves fetching ball we are hoping her forever person sees her for her pretty blue eyes and her tan spot in shape of a heart she is special in lily’s way

Story
This is Maple! We acquired her from our local fire department! Maple was a stray that wandered into the fire house. One of the fireman took her in while she was being seen at the vet for getting shots and spayed. We were then lucky enough to meet her and knew she’d be perfect for our family. The vet thinks she is around 2 years old now. Maple is truly the best dog. She is super fun, very energetic, and extremely smart. She also loves to cuddle! She is great with other dogs (we put her in doggy daycare) and fantastic with young children. Unfortunately, our life is progressing fast and we aren’t able to give Maple the attention and time she truly deserves anymore. We are looking for a new home that has plenty of space for her to run around and play (she loves her toys) and owners that will give her the time and attention she deserves. This has been one of the toughest times in our life, but we love her and only want to see her enjoying life to the fullest!

Story
Roxy is 4 years old. She is a sweet, loving 44 pound baby. She is absolutely petrified of thunderstorms! She fancies herself a lapdog, as that is her favorite place to be! We have to keep our grandchildren quite a bit and although Roxie loves them, she loves any child, she is a bit too rambunctious for them and she gets hyper-focused on ANY type of ball that comes around…where there are children, there tends to be some type of ball. We had her DNA done after we had her a few weeks because we thought she was a Boston Terrier mix. Her DNA came back 100% American Bully, which explained a lot to us. Roxie loves to ride in the car and go places as she does well with leash and harness. We believe the best fit for Roxie would be a loving home with perhaps other dogs and a large outside area to run and play with other dogs to burn off energy.

Story
Isaac is a sweetheart and needs time spent with him. He is smart and truly only has 3 breeds in. He sits on command and is starting to lay on command. I just don’t have time to spend with him or I would be keeping him. He is an awesome hiking dog. He stays close by. He always always comes back when he is called by his name. He is a cuddler. It makes me sad to post this but being in a crate most of the day is not not good. This second paragraph is written couple weeks later. I have now put Isaac outside and it breaks my heart. He sleeps at door and will not go to doghouse or under porch when it’s raining. I promise you he will be a really good dog with someone who can be home with him more than I am and he is crate trained
