Story

I acquired Blue from a former roommate, who had previously gotten her from another situation. Because she has already been rehomed before, my biggest hope is that her next placement is a permanent, stable home where she will not have to go through this process again. She is five years old and is an extremely loving, affectionate, and gentle dog. She is calm and peaceful, especially when she is with her person, and she does not understand personal space—she loves being close, cuddling, and staying under or right next to people at all times. Blue is very friendly with everyone she meets and is highly people-oriented. She is smart, emotionally intuitive, and thrives on attention and affection. She would do best in a home where she can receive consistent love, physical closeness, and companionship. She truly enjoys being someone’s best friend and is happiest cuddled up, being touched, and settling down to sleep near her person.

Freya is still looking for her forever home or a foster family through a licensed rescue! She is current on her vaccinations, heartworm negative, spayed and microchipped. Her only flaw is that she doesn’t like to share her toys or food. Unfortunately miss Freya wants to be the only pet in her family’s house! She can be possessive over her food and her favorite toys so she will need to be the only pet in her home. She would also benefit from some more training. Some of our kennel girls have tought her the basics like sit, paw, and stay, but this girl is SMART and would thrive witheven more! Freya will love every human friend she makes! She just wants all the love and attention to herself 💜 If interested in Freya or if you think your reacue could pull her please give us a call!

Story

This adorable little girl is looking for a single pet home! Stormy decided she needs ✨proper princess treatment✨ So she is requesting that she is the only fur baby in her new home. Unfortunately, miss Stormy does not get along with other dogs and she is too prey driven for cats and other small pets that have the run of the house. That’s OK, a girl as cute as her deserves to be her family’s whole world! Stormy has A LOT of energy! She would do best in a home that is ready to exercise this girls mind! She would also benefit from some basic training. She may be cute, but she needs more manners so we’d love to find her a foster home to continue working on this! If interested in Stormy send us a message! Available at County Line Pet Hospital Clphadoption@gmail.com 708-754-2351
