Story
She has grown up with our two boys (now 13 and 11), and they’ve been her best friends. She absolutely loves kids and is very gentle and loyal with them. That said, she would also thrive in an adult-only home where she can soak up all the attention and enjoy a quieter environment. She’s a true companion dog who wants to be right by your side and struggles with separation anxiety when left alone for too long. -Temperament: Loving, loyal, great with kids (but doesn’t require them) -Health: Sensitive skin but otherwise healthy -Personality: Protective of her people and home -Other Pets: Needs to be the only animal in the home, after 2 years, she hasn’t accepted our yellow lab -Around Other Dogs: Reactive in public, but does great at doggy daycare -Vet Visits: Gets anxious, we give her Trazodone before vet visits/nail trims -Activity Level: Enjoys hiking and outdoor time, she sticks close and doesn’t run off -Quirks: Will help herself to food left unattended.

Story
My husband and I rescued her 3 years ago and she has seperation anxiety and due to us working 12 plus hours a day 4 to 5 days a week she needs a more experienced person to work with her. She loves small dogs and gets along well with cats. Her and my older big dog do not get along. I have had to keep them separated for the last 2 years and its not fair to either of them to have to be separated and not enjoy time together with us. She is kennel trained and is outside during the day. She sleeps in her kennel at night. She's an aggressive chewer and requires hard tough toys. She will eat and destroy any bedding that is put in her kennel as well. She knows basic commands like sit shake and stay. Shes a whinner when not around her person. She likes women more than men and loves kids. Would not like her to go to a home with small children as shes hyper and likely to knock them down. Shes only had 1 puppy vaccine so she will need caught up on all her vaccines and will need fixed

Story
I got Olive as a gift from my grandma when I was 14. She is about 5 years old and in good health. She is playful and silly and loves to play fetch and tug-o-war. She enjoys scratches but is not especially cuddly. She does great in her crate and does well with other dogs. I love her, but as my schedule continues to become busier, I think it's time to find her a home with someone who has more time to devote to her. Ideally I am looking to place her with someone who is patient, and willing to accept that there will likely be an adjustment period before she exhibits the friendly behaviors that I have mentioned. She is a COVID baby, and her developmental socialization was stunted because I could not take her out into public. Nevertheless, she is sweet and will warm up to you if given the chance.

German Shepherd Dog

Story
Very sweet girl LOVES people however does not like other dogs or cats and has never really been around cats and kids. If you have children I would err on the side of caution. She is seven years old as of this last January. UTD on Rabies and DA2PP vaccines but not leptospirosis or borderella vaccines. She grew up with almost seven acres of land but now sadly is pretty much confined to a travel trailer while I’m at work (8 hours daily) and only gets her morning and evening walk. Would be ideal for someone who works from home and/or has a decent sized back yard or even better, some acres. Not a huge fan of car rides (pants, drools, and acts restless the entire trip) so ideally you wouldn’t drive long distance (>1hr) all that frequently. Despite being seven years old, she’s got a lot of energy so as I said, a good yard to run in or some acreage would be ideal.

Story
We are needing to rehome our sweet German Shepherd. Sasha is 7 years old, purebred, papered, fixed, and in fine shape. She barks very little and is good with kids, if a little energetic enough at 70 lbs to knock over the occasional toddler just by walking past, but we’ve loved her since her puppy days when our kids were all toddlers and would pull on her beautiful tail and ears. She needs a 5+ foot fence, is allergic to chicken, and comes with all the trappings (bed, leash, collars, crate, food buckets). She is a shedder, and my wife has unfortunately developed an allergy to our affectionate dog.

Story
His name says it all, Big Puppy, born 3/31/2018, is just that, a big puppy. He is playful, energetic, active, responds well to commands and training, and he is a very loyal and loving boy. He would not do well in an apartment or in city living. He needs to have plenty of room for running around. He loves to be outside barking and chasing squirrels up trees and running around. He currently lives with 5 dogs, a cat and 2 donkeys, so he gets along well with other animals. While he enjoys running around outside, as you can see from the photo, he also enjoys being indoors and sleeping with his friends. Big Puppy would make a wonderful companion for someone who enjoys being outdoors.
