Rehoming 3 year old female Shepherd mix. She is up to date on all her shots. Very sweet girl. Good with other animals and loves kids. Unfortunately I need to rehome her as she gets out of our fence. I am afraid that she will get hit.

Story
It breaks our hearts, but we’ve made the difficult decision to find a new home for Mr. Rogers, our Labradoodle. We recently moved from our 3-acre property into a neighborhood. Mr. Rogers is 5 1/2 and is an incredibly intelligent, loving, and loyal dog. He was trained on an underground fence and has done very well with it. His favorite place is relaxing on the front porch, watching the world go by. He loves playing fetch, splashing in the water, and spending time with his people. He’s playful, affectionate, and always happy to make a new friend. He is happiest living outdoors. He only comes inside during extreme weather and would much rather spend his days outside exploring, lounging on the porch, or keeping an eye on his surroundings. Mr. Rogers gets along well with other dogs and has never shown aggression toward our small dog, even when she nips when playing. We’re looking for a home with acreage or plenty of space where he can thrive outside.

Story
Jaxson is lovable and a great at snuggles. But unfortunately he doesn’t get along with our other older dog. And the next door neighbor got a big dog and tries to get to him and he’s just to much for me now that I have a brand new babygirl. We love him but just want him to have a loving home. But needs to be the only pet household more than likely.
