Story
Bizkit is an adult German Shepherd /Husky who is very timid and scared of everything. Before coming to our family, he was in and out of the shelter his first 2 years. Him and my other male dog do not get along and it’s been a constant battle, so he must go to a home with NO male dogsBizkit is:• Great with kids (we have children ranging from 1 to 9 years old)• Excellent on a leash and loves walks• Skilled with great recall and usually stays in the yard• House trained (but marks in the house when other male dogs are present)• Neutered, microchipped, and up to date on vaccinationsHe’s okay with cats if they both have their own space. He also has some food aggression, especially with male dogs. He’s PETRIFIED of storms and will pace, pant, and freak out during rain and thunder. He can NOT be kenneled during that time because he will injury himself. He is not an escape artist and is otherwise a sweet boy.💰 Rehoming fee: $75Includes: leash, collar, squeaky ball, and dog bed.

Story
Belle is 14 years old and has been with our family 11 years. Unfortunately, our kids have all moved out and our new home and schedule do not allow us to keep her. She is super sweet. She loves people. Due to her older age, she does sleep a lot. And will occasionally have an accident. We are very unsure about her breed. We got her from a shelter.

Hi, we’re looking for a new home for our Cane Corso due to relocating. His name is Gamble, he was raised in the home with 3 ladies so he’s naturally observant. He’s a sweet boy that crave attention. He’s a great family dog. He’s house trained, and has never tear up any of my personal items.

Story
4 years young. Family relocated & has less room in house, more stairs and less land. Stairs is part of why some family cannot take him. He is scared of steps & would be better in a ranch home because he had fallen down steps before. Or somewhere w/carpeted & not slick steps. He was in abusive/neglected/malnourished situation as puppy when found & originally rescued at about 6 months old w/2 other Great Danes all chained in a basement. (He was adopted from a rescue that had him fostered in a home w/a few dogs & cats.) That’s why he is not a fan of a leash we think but will use one with harness on if needed. Was able to roam his past property over 2 acres off lead & stayed in his boundaries. He also does not do well in a vehicle unless extreme circumstances which is why he was not kept up to date with vaccines or vet visits. He was well loved, had his own dog bedroom w/a full couch for a bed & large floor bed to choose from, with a tall feeder & low splash water bowl. Family heartbroken
