Story
Hi my name is Serreno! I am a lab/Great Pyrenees mix I am 4 almost 5 and looking for a loving home. Serreno is fully vetted and spayed. She knows basic commands like sit, stay, come, lay, etc. She does great with other dogs and is good with cats just very interested and curious about them ( thinking they just want to play). Sadly she does not love little kids but is great with adults... a little more timid around men but warms up quickly. She is very loyal, loving and adventurous but also enjoys being a couch potato. She does need some exercise but is not super high maintenance in that area. Serreno is also fence and kennel trained and has never attempted to run. We are looking for a home that is better environment for her and her needs.

Story
We adopted Koda from a shelter in 2021. He was a stray so there wasn’t much info when we got him. He is around 5-6 years old. He listens most of the time. He does know “lay down” and knows that he’s supposed to lay down in a specific spot. He loves to be outside running around or even just laying in the sun. He needs to have either a fenced in yard or an invisible fence of some sort as he will take off. Koda is well mannered while inside. He was crate trained, but hasn’t been in one for a few years unless he stays at someone else’s house. He has recently started to become aggressive to our other two dogs. It isn’t all the time, but is enough to be concerning especially with our infant son getting to the point where he could start walking at any point. Koda cannot be around cats. He is very aggressive towards them. He would do well as an only pet. He has done well in the past with children around 3-4years old and older but is unsure of our 10 month old son.

Story
Milo is roughly around 3 years I got Milo through a friend friend so im not sure how old he is other than that Milo is very outgoing got lots of energy well with other pets he will let himself get dominated by any dog and cats very playful with them even though the some cats don’t like it. He will need a little more attention than your usually dog since he got tons of energy. He’s been an inside dog for 2-3 years since we had him. He will start whining when he needs to go to the bathroom. Overall he’s a great dog.

6 year old Alaskan malamute, Husky, German shepherd mix. He is 6 years old. His father was full Alaskan malamute. His mother was half German shepherd and half Husky. Busch is very energetic and talkative. He is very large and sometimes does not realize his size so I would prefer him not to go to a home with children. He loves to run and fetch.
