Marley is a sweet dog but needs a home without other pets or children. She is a great lap dog and wants love all day.

Story
We rescued Kojo 2 years ago, he was abused and stray for years before we adopted him. He is sweet as can be, but unfortunately I’m going to college come spring and can no longer look after him. He needs a family to give him plenty of exercise and attention. He is good off leash and his listening skills are good but not great. He loves to hike and swim and play with his tennis ball’s.

Size
(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)
Details
Good with kids, Good with dogs, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Her name is Marble but her nickname is Baby. She was born 1/24/2025 and I adopted her from a breeder in November of 2025. She is current on all shots, rabies, micro chipped, and is fixed. She's Semi potty trained, she'll will go outside and use potty pads. She's fine around other dogs and kids. I haven't had her around any cats. She is food motivated and when she wants your attention, she'll lay her head on your arm and stare with her big brown eyes. She's a big cuddlier and will want to be your lap dog. She will be your sidekick, one step behind you on anything you do. Due to work changing, I am unable to be at home for periods of time and found her to have separation anxiety. She will need a firm trainer to help her with it or give her a yard to run when not home.

Ally

Labrador Retriever

Female, Adult
Peoria, IL
Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
Details
House-trained, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Ally is an energetic affectionate dog that will do just about anything for butt rubs, going for a walk, and she's a great cuddle buddy! She also just turned 5 on February 21st. Ally loves feeling included whether it's putting away the groceries, moving furniture around or even doing laundry she will be right by your side! She does have a protective side to her that can at first seem vicious but overall, she is making sure she is being a protector. What I am looking for in a new home is someone/a family who can make time for her and can give her all the care/support she needs. Unfortunately, her owner abandoned her so I have been taken care of her until I can find a better home for her! For the past few months, I have been with her I have learned that Ally is a friendly, protective loyal dog. And I think anyone would be lucky to have her!
