Story
**Jakes Mom and Dad are featured in the last two photos! Jake is kennel trained and knows sit and lay. He is 4 months old. Kennel, 3 toys, feed/water bowls and pad as well as paper work are included. He is currently up to date on his vaccinations but will need his last round soon. Jake loves exercise. Has a very goofy personality. Needs an active lifestyle due to his breed. He stays in the kennel for periods of time with no problems. Jake understands the concept of going outside to use the restroom. However he will need more work as he still hasn’t matured enough to hold it for longer amounts of time. But the kennel has worked perfectly until then at night. We are rehoming due to an older dog that was previously with us that has had a hard time accommodating to a new dog in the house. Our older dog was a rescue We would like to see Jake go to a loving home as we care for him deeply. We will turn anyone away that we believe will not be able to provide these things for him.

Story
Molly is a super special girl who is very sweet and loving. She wants nothing more than to be with you full time. She can be a little overwhelming to little ones with her affection depending on the child. Our youngest she is a little overwhelming for. She is good with other dogs and does fine with our cat. She needs someone who can give her tons of attention, she would do best in a home as the only dog or only one other dog. Not because of any aggression problems but just so she isn’t feeling like she isn’t getting the attention she deserves. She would make an excellent farm dog or would be great with someone looking for a best friend. We really do love her but with our youngest being a bit overwhelmed by her we’re not able to give her to time she needs. She loves to give hugs and always has a smile on her face, and she will greet you as if you’re the best thing to ever happen to her. She is spayed as well.
