Story
Captain is a handsome Shepherd/Hound mix with a playful personality and so much potential! This sweet boy was recently adopted but was returned through no fault of his own—he`s still learning the ropes of house training and needs a family that`s willing to be patient and help him succeed.Captain has already shown that he can fit in well with other pets. In his previous home, he lived peacefully with a cat and absolutely loved having a canine companion to play with. If you have a friendly, confident dog at home, Captain would likely thrive! Having another dog around could also help him continue building confidence.While Captain can be a little shy when it comes to walking on a leash, he`s making progress every day. With positive reinforcement, patience, and plenty of encouragement, we know he`ll continue to blossom. He`s looking for someone who understands that the best dogs aren`t always perfect right away—they just need someone willing to invest a little time and love.Captain is ready for a family that will celebrate his victories, help him master his house manners, and give him the stability he`s been searching for. In return, you`ll get a loyal, playful best friend who`s eager to share life`s adventures with you.If you`re looking for a sweet, dog-friendly companion who just needs a chance to learn and grow, Captain is waiting to meet you!

Story
Meet Roscoe! ??Roscoe is a 1½-year-old pittie and truly one of the sweetest dogs we’ve ever met. He greeted each of us like we were his best friends and he had known us his entire life!This happy boy play-bowed, wiggled all over, and eagerly asked for playtime and plenty of rear-end scratches. His owner described him as a wonderful dog and was heartbroken that his daughter could no longer keep Roscoe because of landlord restrictions.Roscoe is housebroken, crate-trained, and great with both cats and dogs. He has obviously never met a stranger! When you look into his eyes, you can see his gentle soul—and it instantly says “lover boy.”Roscoe is eager to please his person, although it doesn’t take much to make him happy. He seems to enjoy every moment of life and is ready to share all that happiness and love with a family of his own. ??

Story
Max is a gentle giant loves his belly rubbed he is 2 years old. He needs more room to play for his size. He is so smart and he is a lover too sweet for words. Max comes with a cage for his size, he has a GPS on his collar, toys for is size, he has a microchip, 10 month supply of heart worm, tick & flea for his size. I have relocated to a home with a much smaller yard. I just want him to go to a family that can love him and give him space to roam and play thats his happy place.
