Details

Story

Athena is a 2.5-year-old, 45-pound mix. Athena was at the Clinton County Animal Shelter when we adopted her in April. She rides well in cars, can be left on her own in the house, is house trained, and knows several commands including clicker training. She loves a fenced yard to run around in and goes for walks. She is fine being bathed, brushed, and getting nail trims. Athena is very affectionate once she gets to know you. She does extremely well with females and starts a bit leery of males. We worked with a trainer to help her get over her fear of males. Unfortunately, she is still afraid of the two males in our home, though training has greatly reduced this. Since being in our home, she has gotten used to males visiting. Ideally, Athena would live with in a home with females.

Story

Its actually 2 dogs. Seniors. Life mates. They're 10 yrs old and never been separated. Great dogs! I am ill. I adopted them out over 4 years ago but 2 weeks ago it was brought to my attention they had been found wondering around town and were taken to the shelter. My emotions of hearing this made me act on impulse not considering what I'd do with them,and I went to the shelter and got them outta fear for their lives because I didnt know it was a no kill shelter. Now I haven't been able to rehome them and im too sick to take care of them. Im in need of going to the hospital, but cant because these 2 dogs are here. Im in desperate need of them being rehomed ASAP please.

(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)

Details

Good with kids, Good with dogs, Good with cats, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

We adopted Potato from a shelter when he was about 3 months old. He was a super sweet and quiet puppy. After a few weeks, he became vocal. Very vocal. He likes to talk and let you know his opinion. We do NOT want to return him to there. We have other dogs, his vocal abilities aggravate my older dogs and has created an aggressive environment. Unfortunately, we are unable to keep him with us as much as we want to. He is a very sweet puppy and loves his ears and face scratched. He loves being around humans and playing with one of our older dogs. He a bit a much for the others. We have trained him that cats are friends and not food. He may chase them here and there but if they set a boundary, he respects it. He has been scratched a time or two. He is leashed, potty, and crate trained. He needs a XL crate and I highly recommend crating him while out of the house. He likes wood. He doesn't chew when we are present but if we leave him out while we leave the house, he eats our chair legs.

Meet Bruce! Bruce is around 4 years old and is a pit/boxer mix. This playful and energetic pup is completely house trained—never has an accident! He’s also a zoomies expert, and loves to spend his time sprinting outside. Bruce was surrendered with another dog, but we are unsure how he does with cats and he would prefer a home without young kids. If you’re looking for a fun-loving, reliable companion, Bruce is ready to make your home his own!
