Story
Sadie is a purebred Great Dane born in August of 2025. She is incredibly loyal, sensitive, playful, and loving. She loves kids and does great with other dogs. She has done well with potty training, but being only 6 months old, she does have accidents from time to time if you’re not consistent. We got Sadie and her best friend Stella from a breeder. I would like for them to go somewhere together, but will consider separating. When we got them, my lupus had been in remission for years. It is now back and hitting hard, and I have just found out that I’m pregnant and it is very high risk. I am unable to give my girls the care and attention they need. I want them to go to a loving home where the new owner understands that even though they’re bigger than most puppies, they are still just puppies and should be cared for as such.

Story
Stella was born in September of 2025. She loves to play and snuggle. She can be intimidating with her bark to alert you of people at your door, but she’s very much all bark, no bite. She does not “over-bark” either. Just to alert. We got Stella and Sadie from a breeder. I have lupus but it has been in remission for years. It is now back in full force, and I just learned I’m also pregnant and it is very high risk. I am not able to give these babies the proper care they need at this time. You will receive all papers from the breeder including shot records. I would like the girls to go together since they have been together for so long, but am willing to separate if needed.

Story
Meet Jax! This is a choice that wasn’t made easily or lightly. Jax is a 5 year old Pitt Bull who really is the sweetest cuddler. We are seeking to rehome him only because we inherited him from another situation and our current lives do not offer the attention he deserves. Jax is a hyper boy that would fit best with an active person that can give him the time and attention he needs. He’s great with other dogs he’s met and loves people, but doesn’t like cats!

Story
“You Think I Don't Know Ball?” Meet Emma! At 6 years old, Emma the Pit Bull mix has mastered the art of ball. Fetch? She invented it. Catch? She’s a pro. Tug? Only if you can keep up! With her adorable ears perked and eyes locked in, Emma takes her playtime very seriously - and she wouldn’t have it any other way. But don’t let her athletic skills fool you - Emma’s also a total sweetheart who loves spending time with her favorite people. She’s loyal, affectionate, and will happily snuggle up after she’s proven, once again, that yes… she does know ball. Emma is looking for an experienced adopter who understands her zest for life and can continue her training journey. She’ll need to be the only pet in her home so she can soak up all the love and attention she deserves. She’s also part of our Paws Forward Program, which means her adopter will receive 3 free training sessions with Janette from Kind K9s to help Emma keep shining both on and off the field. If you’re ready for a loyal teammate, a goofy best friend, and a champion ball player, Emma is ready to play ball… forever. Can't adopt? Please share!
