Story
Stella is 7 years old. I got her from a breeder when she was a puppy. She has only lived with me. She does not do well with small children, as she likes to jump on people as she greets them. Stella does okay with older children. Stella has a loud bark but can be very skittish. She likes to go on walks, especially to the park. She currently has a fenced yard and likes to be outside when it is warm. Stella does not like to go out in the rain, but she will not have an accident in the home. She is very food motivated and will do most anything for a treat. Stella does not like loud noises or thunderstorms. I put a thunder jacket on her for those times. Stella likes to sleep in the bed with you but will lay next to it if she can't get on the bed. Stella likes attention. She understands basic commands and will respond appropriately. Stella really is a good dog. I wish circumstances were different and I could keep her. I am not listing a fee for Stella; I just want her to go to a good home.

Story
This is my Australian/ German shepard mix Ellie, and I need to re-home her. She needs a home with a yard and a fence. She is an escape artist I rescued her from the Humane society in August 2020. They guessed her to be about 3 at that time. She has been spayed, has all her current shots, and has been taken to the Vet on a regular basis. She has flea, tick and heart worm meds that are current through end of May. I have her shot record as well. She is a sweet girl, she does have alot of anxiety constantly licks. She was dumped off in traffic by previous owner. I took her to pet therapy and rold that she is moldy autistic, not sure about that. She is VERY smart. She enjoys other dogs, likes kids, but is used to living with 3 adults. She enjoys riding in cars, getting her belly rubs, shakes paw for treat, and walks. Knows ommands sit, lay down, stop ✋️ (expect when running). She sleeps in her kennel and it is her "safe" spot. Fireworks, storms make her nervous. She is a good girl

Story
Buddy is a rescue. We got him from a shelter that rescued him from a dog fighting ring that he was to be used as a bait dog. He is very loving and even will cuddle when he feels comfortable with you. He does not do well with other dogs while on leash, but at the dog park, he is completely fine but will stay close to me. He has never bitten anyone, he does growl and bark at startling noises like a knock on the door and can act tough, but never acts on it. We have tried to train it out of him with immersion, day care, training facilities, but to no avail. He is just a hyper nervous dog. Great with kids, very loyal. He is a7 year old lab/pit/other mix and has been neutered, weighs approx 45 pounds. We used to live in a house with a fenced backyard until my divorce and that helped a lot; however, moving into an apartment, I unfortunately cannot keep him due to my landlord not allowing him to stay. We hate to give him up, but circumstances dictate that we must.
