Story
Shadow is 85 lbs of high speed energy. Loves to go outside and play and go for walks, he is bossy so he will try to lead the walk! If you have a fenced backyard, he will love and thank you! He is house trained and can be free to roam the house, he does not destroy furniture or toys, but he will sit on it. He’s very protective of his home and space so be careful introducing him to strangers, rest assured he will let you know every time someone is near your home! He can play with other dogs once he’s used to them, but keep in mind he is big and doesn’t know what that means. It would be preferable if he is the only child, human or animal! He loves belly rubs and is a literal shadow around the home, always close by! Reactive to people and animals during walks he will bark until they are out of smelling distance!

Story
Lola is a very sweet dog. She enjoys attention, being pet as well as snuggled, and she loves to roll around in the grass. Lola does well with other dogs, she plays but is really all about the snuggles. Cats are unknown My mom has had Lola for about two years, and her health is not the best these days. Looking for someone to love and care for Lola the way she needs with lots of attention and care. Having Lola as the only dog of the home would be preferred(but is not necessary) as she is good with other dogs. Lola can be anxious at times, but all she needs is some time, snuggles and understanding. Lola is also good around children as young as four years old(younger has not been tested).
