Story
Lucy is incredibly smart. She loves hard. Give the biggest hugs. She will even jump into your arms and be held like a baby. LOVES to play fetch. She could do that for hours. She knows how to sit, shake, lay down, and roll over. Not a very good walking dog. She plays very good with kids and most other dogs. She is the friendliest dog when you take her to dog play places. Our other dog she is not a fan of and unfortunately due to our living situation and close quarters we cannot keep Lucy. We have all her paperwork. She is fine to stay with us for a while she is just having to be kept separate and not let out to run around or play as much as we know she deserves. She really is a good dog. Her smarts get her in trouble but if someone has time to spend with her she with be the most sweet loyal dog.

Story
Angel is a sweet, affectionate pup with a big heart and a playful spirit. She’s grown up alongside a cat, so she’s already used to having furry companions around. One of her cutest habits? She’s a bit mouthy—not in a biting way, but she loves to gently “hold” your hand with her mouth to show affection. Angel thrives outdoors and absolutely loves playtime, especially a good game of catch! Fair warning—she’s still perfecting the “bring it back” part. 😊 She’s full of energy and would do best with a family that can give her the time, attention, and activity she craves. She’s kennel trained, but when left alone for long periods, she can get anxious and may chew or damage things near her crate (like carpet or walls). Because of this, she’d do best in a home where she can be part of the daily routine. Angel is a loyal, loving dog who just wants to be part of a family that has the time to help her shine. Please contact to setup a time to meet her!

Story
Hudson is 3 to 4 years old and weighs 77 lbs . He is neutered and up to date on vaccines , is on a monthly heartworm prevention as well as flea and tick. Hudson has been an apartment dog since being adopted 2 years ago . He is pretty mellow as he likes to nap and lounge on the couch alot. He does get to go for some walks and loves them. They are very limited as it is risky that we run into another dog. He is reactive so he don't get much exercise . He is a big cuddle bug and wants to be with me or on me all the time. Hudson love to give kisses. He loves his treats and dinner time. He lets me bath him, trim his nails, clean his ears, brush his teeth. He does great at the vet for all his pokes. He is is a gentle giant. Hudson needs a home with a yard and no other pets. He needs to be able to run and get exercise . Hudson has had training can sit, lay down go to kennel, shake. He goes to the door and sits to let you know when he needs to go out and go potty. He is very smart!

Chase

Golden Retriever

Male, Adult
Shawnee, KS
Size
(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)

Not good with dogs, Not good with cats, Needs special attention, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Chase does well with our cat and I've seen him play well with small dogs. He does have big dog fear aggression. I asked previous owner if he had been bitten by a big dog or a wild animal, they said no. Chase has been a part of our family for 3.5 years and he isn't as reactive with big dogs as he used to be. That's to say, if he is a good distance he doesn't growl and lunge as much. Chase needs an experienced adopter with plenty of room to roam in his own private yard without big dogs nearby. I have talked with a couple of trainers and they think it's likely he can be trained out of his fear aggression. This would be from a knowledgeable owner or trained professional. He loves people and attention. I would caution that he isn't in a home with small children just because he hasn't lived with young children in our home or with original owner. He really is very sweet like Golden Retrievers are known for, he just has some special needs.

Story
We got Coco un March of 2021. She was supposed to be growing up with our daughter but we are getting divorced and neither of our apartments allow big dogs and we just simple do not have the time for an animal right now. She is great with kids, shes very protective over the people she loves. She has energy when she feels like it 😂. She is very chill but is always up for an adventure, as long as its not raining or too cold 😂. She loves to snuggle and just watch a show with you. She can very intimidating so a good protector for the household, people tend to be scared of her because of her size and deep bark but she has never hurt anybody and never will. Shes a sweetheart and we will miss her dearly
