Story
Kaiser is about a year old. He was a rescue. He is fixed, up to date on all his shots, and microchipped. No health issues.He is full of energy and his happy place is outside with a stick or ball. He's good about staying in the yard, even without a fence, but occasionally he'll get distracted and wander off. He always comes back though. He is very protective of us and his property. He has some sep. anxiety but it's getting better with love and meds (Prozac).He likes some dogs and dislikes others- no rhyme or reason to it. He does get jealous if we give other dogs attention so it might be best to have him as the only pet in the family. He hasn't been around young kids, but he likes to jump and chew (not bite- we're trying to fix that) so older kids/teenagers would be the youngest he should be around.He is a great dog and it breaks my heart to rehome him but he and our cats don't get along. We can't leave them alone so the cats have been locked in a bedroom and it's not fair to them.

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.

I got her 7 years ago from a Facebook group as soon as I moved away from home. She has slept in bed with me every night since then.

But she has never shown any sign of aggression to anyone. Never bit any person or animal. She is crate trained, only crated while I’m at work.

Hudson

Treeing Walker Coonhound Pointer

Male, Adult
Bloomington, IN

(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
Details
Good with kids, Good with dogs, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Hudson is a 13-year-old hound with a gentle heart and a soulful presence. He’s a loving, kind boy who enjoys belly rubs, quiet companionship, and lounging in his favorite spots. He also has a playful side and loves to run, so a home with space to explore would make him happy. Hudson does well around other dogs in open, outdoor settings, but would likely thrive as the only dog or with a calm companion. He does best in a peaceful home where he can relax. He may have mild seasonal allergies but responds well to extra care. He knows basic commands, though like many hounds, he listens best when he feels like it—or for treats. He enjoys stuffed toys, howls with trains, and sleeps well through the night. Hudson is being rehomed due to changes in family circumstances and deserves a home that can give him the time, space, and calm he needs.
