Story
He needs lots of training and care he was rescued as a puppy he was the only surviving puppy from his litter due to parvo. We are now in a situation where he might need to be put in a shelter or put down because we cannot find a place to go that will allow pets. I want him to have the best life and I’m not able to provide that for him anymore. Contact my phone 2707274602 text only and only if you’re serious about taking him

Zoe is a sweet dog. She unfortunately doesn’t get enough attention which makes her a little hyper. She needs room to run, she is house broke, comes with collar, and toys. My ex left her with me to find her a good home and that’s what I want for her.
