Story

Daisy is a smart sweetie who needs a great home. She came into our lives in a unique fashion. I knew that we’d only be a temporary family for her. Unfortunately, we can keep her bc of restrictions at the apartment complex I rent from. Shes Lab/Heeler mix. She picks up tricks quickly. Learned to sit in 10 min of training. She’s 1/2 house broke. I don’t have the time I wish to fully dedicate to this pup. All pet supplies come with her including her crate, leash, toys, bed, food (fresh pet) shampoo… etc. please reach out via text. Rehoming fee is negotiable.7️⃣6️⃣3️⃣-2️⃣9️⃣2️⃣-0️⃣0️⃣2️⃣1️⃣

Details

Story

ALTOONA, IACharlotte will be a three-year-old Old English Bulldog. She is very sweet, intelligent, loyal, and energetic. She enjoys her walks, exploring through scent, and is a very affectionate dog who loves to snuggle. Charlotte does have some dominant tendencies and is naturally anxious. There have been a handful of incidents with my lab mix and Anatolian mix, and she has hurt them, though she has not shown any aggression toward other people or me. I am currently training her and focusing on revisiting the basics, going to spot, leave it, heel, and not jumping, as well as socialization outside the home, and will continue to do so while she is with me and my pups as a family. However, I think she would do better in a home where she is the only pet and has someone to give her attention and time. She will need boundaries set in her new home and ongoing training. I will also be very intentional with this transition process, including offering assistance in training. Please reach out!

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

Details

Good with kids, Good with dogs, Not good with cats, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Milo is a sweet, loving 9-month-old Great Pyrenees, Poodle, and Golden Retriever mix. He has the biggest heart and absolutely loves to cuddle, give kisses, and be close to his people. Milo came from a hoarding situation prior to joining our family, so he’s still learning confidence and structure. Because of this, he does best when he has guidance and support from a calm, confident older dog—he truly thrives with a strong canine companion to help him feel secure. He is a good boy with so much potential in the right environment. Milo would do best in a home that: • Has another well-balanced, older dog • Can provide consistency, patience, and structure • Understands he may need continued training and reassurance

Story

We are looking to find a loving new home for our dog, Theo. He is an 8-year-old pit mix with a sweet, gentle personality. Theo is incredibly loving, enjoys relaxing just as much as he loves to play, and is always happy to go on walks. He does great with children and gets along well with other animals. Theo is healthy, well-behaved, and still has plenty of energy and life ahead of him. This decision hasn’t been easy, but with our increasingly busy schedule due to kids’ activities and sports, we want to make sure he gets the time, attention, and love he truly deserves. We are hoping to find him a home where he can continue to be a cherished part of the family.
