Story
Remi is 4 years old. We got him from a breeder in Alabama. He is so incredibly sweet and low key. We are heartbroken to have to rehome him, but a member of our family has an auto immune disorder and has become severely allergic to pet dander. It is important to us to make sure we find him a loving home. Remi is very sweet and loyal to his people. He loves naps, stuffed animals, blankets, tug of war, and playing fetch. He is completely house trained. We have a crate that he is happy to go in, but we rarely use now because he has not needed it. I think with proper training, Remi, could do very well with other dogs but currently gets nervous and at times aggressive. He has not been around cats, but I think with some training he would be good with them. Remi's items include his XL crate, toys, dog food, and treats.

Story
Samson (Sammy) is a well-behaved adult male miniature Australian Shepherd purebred who has lived with an elderly couple with one other dog that he gets along with well. Due to one of his owners getting a serious cancer diagnosis, they are no longer able to care for Sammy and sadly need to find a new home for him that can care for him. He will make a great dog for either experienced dog owners or first-time owners, and he is good with kids, but has no experience with cats.

Story
Bane is a beautiful 3 year old GSD. He's lovable with adults and teens. He needs a fenced backyard, not that he's a runner but I have issues with deer, dogs and cats which he will go for. At 110lbs he's strong and it takes someone strong enough to hold him if there's no fence. I love him dearly but have a bad back thats getting worse and to be a responsible pet owner I have to find him an approved handler. He does know basic commands. He comes with an xl indoor kennel and muzzel for taking him out. I live in an apartment so no fence. He has Comfrt sweat shirts so you can order matching human ones. I would really like to find him a good home soon. Contact me anytime.

Story
❤️ Looking for a Loving Home for My Sweet Girl ❤️ With a very heavy heart, I am looking for a loving new home for my 10-year-old girl. This is an incredibly difficult decision, and I want to make sure she finds a family who will love and care for her for the rest of her life. She is an incredibly sweet, loving, and affectionate dog who absolutely loves people. She is wonderful with children and cats and has so much love to give. At 10 years old, she still has plenty of personality and would make a wonderful companion for someone looking for a loyal, loving dog. There are a few things her future family will need to know. She does not do well with female dogs, so she would do best as the only dog in the home or with a carefully matched male dog. She also experiences anxiety during thunderstorms and fireworks and will need a patient family who can help her feel safe and secure during those times. Please reach out with any questions.
