Story
I only charge an adoption fee to deter unsuitable individuals seeking a free pet. Bella is a sweet and loving dog. Our family is expanding, and keeping multiple pets with a large family is challenging. Additionally, living in a military community means owning a rottweiler, considered an 'aggressive breed,' presents difficulties. We adore Bella and want to find the very best family for her. She enjoys cold weather and is best suited for older children rather than toddlers. She is 50/50 with other dogs. However, she has successfully stayed at multiple group dog boardings over the years. While she may be protective, she is naturally relaxed and loving. She needs a bit of an experienced owner due to her size. She loves walks, chew toys, and cuddles. Bella has a dog sister and a cat brother she gets along with. Best if she is an only pet with a more mature family. I have Bella's stuff that I can provide for free if adopted. I will want to check on her if adopted as well.

Story
I’ve had Penelope since she was 10 weeks old, she is now 2. Her birthday 9/9/22. She’s fully grown and 48lb. She’s a snuggly bug full of character who keeps us laughing. Penelope is smart and loves to learn, she picks up on training and tricks very quickly. She’s has had basic training classes and is AKC star puppy certified. We have two other dogs and she struggles with guarding toys so she needs a single dog home. She’s also nervous around children. She loves being outside, nose to the ground and exploring. Penelope also loves a good nap and will happily snuggle up in a blanket for a long afternoon snooze. I would say she’s medium-low energy. She likes to talk and will use her voice with grumbles and all kinds of noise to tell you what she’s thinking. To be clear: she’s nervous with kids, not aggressive. She likes other dogs, but deals with guarding so being in a single dog home would be best for her. She’s never seen a cat

Story
Goody is an energetic 3-year-old boxer pitbull mix. He was my brother's dog. My brother passed away recently and I am unable to take care of Goody due to my poor health. He is a good dog and loves to run around and chew on his bones. He is a fabulous companion and will spend hours snuggling with you if you let him. He is fully housebroken. He loves children and is extremely food motivated. He would make a great protector of children and your household. Please consider him for adoption. Thank you

Story
Goku is a family dog, very smart and loyal. He is great with small kids, cats, other dogs and loves to just be glued to you. He is ever so curious about your whereabouts and loves long walks and just being by your side. As far as his story goes, he was found at a farm past Malvern, Iowa. Someone had dropped him off in the middle of the countryside and a kind farmer asked us if we wanted him. Of course we said yes. That same day, we took him to the Vet, got him all of his necessary shots and did a wellness check. They were so thorough with a heartworm test and did a full check up. We unfortunately are moving due to my wife accepting another position out of state. Our new apartment does not accept pets and sadly we have to reach out in order to rehome him. We will need to have him adopted out no later than the end of the month. He is a great family dog and we would love to get him settled in. Free to a good home.

Story
Bingo is a lovable bundle of joy who brings immense happiness to everyone around him. This sweet boy loves spending time outdoors, whether it’s going on walks, runs, or hikes. He’s a natural explorer and thrives in environments where he can sniff, chase, and play to his heart’s content. Bingo is incredibly patient with kids and makes a great companion for families. However, it’s essential to note that he has a limit to his physical play time and may not appreciate overly rough or boisterous interactions. A gentle and respectful approach is always best when interacting with any animal. One thing you should know about Bingo is that he can be a bit of a chatterbox when outside. It’s just one of his charming quirks that make him all the more lovable. He’s a quick learner and responds well to positive reinforcement training. I'm committed to finding the perfect home and to ensure he’s in a loving and suitable environment, I will require an in-person meeting followed by an in-home visit.
