Story
I got Dovah from a friend who has her sister. She’s a happy, high energy dog. She loves to play and run around with her favorite toys and is extremely treat motivated! She’s only a year and a half old. She does fine with dogs and cats but will chase the cats if they run because she thinks it’s playing. She’s extremely smart and knows sit, heal, leave it, and down as long as you have treats on you. She is a little bit Mouthy (never breaks skin ever ) and is reactive (excited to see) to people coming in the house. She guards food will have to be fed in her kennel. She will need more foundational training, would do great in a training class. I would like her to go home as the only dog in the household , but able to interact with family and friends dogs. She does still love to play with dogs or someone who can provide good 1 on 1 time with her for multiple hours a day. She’s mostly potty trained as long as she gets out 3 times a day! Comes with a large steel cage and other items!

Story
Roxy is a 5 year old female German shepherd. I got her 5 years ago, not knowing the maintenance I would have to keep up with on her. I am looking to re-home her to a good, loving family. She is a really good dog but I nor my family can keep up with the maintenance of her & we do not have much time for her. She is very smart, she learns fast & is very active. She has somewhat been around dogs for the past few years & she’s more friendly with male dogs than female dogs. She is house trained & very protective. She really is a good dog but it is unfair to her for us to keep her & not take care of her the way we’re supposed to & that is why we’re looking to re-home her.

Story
Chase needs some love and attention. Has great personality. Requires walks. Love to play with ball & rope. Works well with neighbors dog who is the same size, but I’m not sure about small dogs or small kids. Got him from a coworker at 7 weeks. He needs to burn off the energy. He’s somewhat needy. It’s only been him & me for a long time. He doesn’t want anyone disrupting him while he’s eating. Let me know when someone is too close to the house. He’s a good friend.

Story
"Leo" is pretty mild-mannered. He has NEVER become mean-spirited at all, and has NEVER snapped at any kid or adult at all - therefore he is great with kids! He gets a rather exuberant when he sees or is around other dogs, however Leo is very harmless with a great temperament. If I didn't have to work outside of the home - I could continue to care for him. I will certainly miss him a lot.
