Story
💙 Meet Bowser — Looking for His Forever Home! 💙Sometimes, through no fault of their own, good dogs find themselves needing a new place to call home. That’s the story of Bowser, and we are hoping his next chapter is the one where he finds his forever family. 🥹🐾Bowser is an almost 2-year-old Great Dane/Mastiff mix, and he is one handsome, big-hearted boy! 💙 He was very loved by his previous family, but due to circumstances beyond their control, they were unable to continue keeping him. This was not because Bowser did anything wrong — sometimes life simply takes an unexpected turn.And Bowser? He is ready to love again. ❤️He is well trained, very loving, and full of energy. He absolutely loves being outside and would happily spend his days playing, exploring, and enjoying time with his people. But there is one thing that beats everything else in Bowser’s world…🎾 A BALL. 🎾Seriously, his favorite thing EVER is a ball! 😂 If you’re looking for a big goofy boy who will happily chase a ball, play until his heart is content, and then soak up all the love you’re willing to give, Bowser may be your guy.Bowser is parasite-free and has his basic vaccinations. He will still need his rabies vaccine and will need to be neutered as part of his adoption requirements.Bowser isn't looking for a temporary stop. He deserves a family who will look past his size and see the sweet, loving, playful dog underneath it all — a family who will give him the stability, attention, exercise, and unconditional love he deserves. 🐾❤️He has already known what it feels like to be deeply loved. Now we want to help him find the people who will make sure he never has to wonder where he belongs again.Bowser is handsome. Bowser is loving. Bowser is playful. Bowser is a BIG ball-loving goofball. And Bowser is waiting for his forever. 🥹💙🎾 Bowser🐾 Almost 2 years old🐾 Great Dane/Mastiff mix🐾 Male🐾 Very loving & affectionate🐾 Well trained🐾 Energetic & playful🐾 LOVES being outside🐾 Ball obsessed! 🎾🐾 Parasite-free🐾 Basic shots🐾 Rabies vaccine needed🐾 Will need to be neutered🐾 Being rehomed through no fault of his own📩 If you think Bowser might be the big goofy best friend your family has been missing, please apply now to adopt! 💙🐾Adoption Application: https://tr.ee/PEkjaidD6JPlease visit: https://callowaycountyky.gov/animal-control/ to fill out an application.

Story
Hello my name is Maggie. I am a senior Border Collie / Labrador Mix. Although I am over 10 years old, I have a lot of puppy / fun in me. My previous owner got too old to take care of me and had to go to a nursing home where I cannot stay. I am as sweet as can be. I whimper when you pet me and love attention. I am a cuddle dog that is fully House and Crate Trained. I do not bark. I am an indoor dog. I get along well with other dogs and won't give you any trouble. Please adopt me. All my shots are up to date and I come with 4 months of flea / tick / heartworm medications. I come with a large crate that you can put in the house and simply say "crate" and I will go into it. I pee on command Outside in the grass so you don't have to wait a long time for me 'to go". I am NOT a picky eater and will eat what you give me . I am a Good Girl ready for adoption.
