Story
Hi everyone, Dante has been a great dog to us for the past 4 years. We unfortunately have to rehome him due to our new born baby and the lack of interaction we give Dante. He needs someone who is willing to put some effort in playing, giving him the attention he deserves. Dante has experience with kids, does well with them. He’s good with cats, a bit pushy but hasn’t hurt any. He possibly won’t do good with male dogs, although he has been groomed with other dogs around. I recommend a home with him as the only male dog, also a home with land or a fenced yard he does well indoors and outdoors. Dante is such a great companion loves to cuddle, loves attention, also protective of his family. We hope to be able to find a good home for him ❤️

I Adopted Ace about 4 years ago and he's a sweet boy. He lo es to play and run outside. The more to scratch his back the more he'll love you. He loves it and goes nuts when he gets Moist and Meaty dog food for a treat. I have to move and can't take him with me and it breaks my heart. If you give him love he'll love ya right back

Story
Nyx is a two-year old mixed breed (put medium terrier because I wasn't sure what to put LOL) that weighs about 50-60 pounds. She is spayed. She has a lot of energy, but she is very sweet and extremely smart. I am looking for someone who has ideally a lot of space for her to run around and someone that has the time she needs to be completely and properly trained. She has a very big personality and while she is okay with other dogs, she would probably do best being the only dog in the home. I strongly believe she would be a very good working dog, maybe on a farm or something like that. The rehoming fee is simply to ensure that she goes to a good home. She wakes up at about 8am to 8:30am to go potty in the mornings, every day like clockwork LOL. She does currently live with her doggy best friend Hades. (He also needs a home! If someone could take them together, that would be even better! HOWEVER, he does have special needs. Please let me know if you'd like info about him as well.)

Story
Hades is about 1.5-2 years old. I believe he is some kind of shepherd but I’m not sure. He weighs between 55 and 65lbs. He is not altered. He is a very sweet, usually calm dog. He is incredibly smart. He was rescued from an extremely neglectful and abusive home and came directly into my care. He can get very nervous, but once he is comfortable he will be your best friend. He is quite sensitive to yelling and loud noises. IMPORTANT: He tested positive for heart worms in the middle of last year and has been on slow-kill medication (Interceptor Plus) for 4 months. I have 8 months of meds left for him that will be given to you. I am unsure if he is still positive for them, I would not be able to get him tested again until July at the soonest. He has a doggy best friend named Nyx. I would love for them to be able to be homed together, but I understand that that may not be possible. I want to ensure that they both have the best places to go to suit their needs. (Fee to ensure good home.)
