Story

PLEASE NOTE: we want to rehome Lightning with his bro, Thunder Lightning is a little baby. He loves anything and everything he sees. He cuddles hard and loves harder. He also loves chasing squirrels. He is a black shi-zhu-chihuahua-lab mix. He looks like a lab puppy though and acts like it too. I got Lightning (and his bro Thunder) about 4 years ago. My fiancé and I are moving to Chicago at the end of July 2025, and want to find a loving home for him and Thunder Lightning: - He loves hard and cuddles harder - He has a goofy little run that is really cute - He LOVES meeting new dogs. He's friends with everybody - He does not do well with cats or squirrels They are some of the friendliest and loving dogs ever. They deserve love and will love back hard. I am hoping to have Lightning stay with Thunder in a new home. They love each other and cannot live without each other.

Story

Very loving child friendly dog, very playful. Loves people time. Very much a velcro dog. Does not like water but will gladly jump in the tub for a bath. She is kennel trained and does not go inside. Loves her toy ball, and is a wonderful emotional support animal. She thinks she is a lap dog. Coco does not get along with other animals, so she needs to be an only pet. She also loves to go for rides. Coco loves to bat her ball around like a cat and roll around on the floor with her ball. We also have all the things you will need for her including kennel, food and water dishes, toys, gates, food and treats. We have had her for 7 yrs but now the kids are gone and we are relocating to a place we can not take her to. So we would love to find a loving home for her where she can enjoy the life she is used to.

Story

King is an ESA. He will be 4 years old on December 7th. He is a great dog who loves kids. He is not fond of dogs and not sure about cats. HE knows sit, lay down, shake n stay. I love him very much n will miss him when he goes so I am hoping wherever he does go that I can possibly visit once in a while. If not, I truly understand. I have lung disease and my breathing is getting worse so I am unable to walk him because he is a puller. I am looking for a good home for him that preferably has a yard for him to get exercise, someone that will walk him and love him like he deserves to be loved. He is amazing❤️
