Story
Kaia is a sweet 5 yr old husky/chow mix. She has been spayed and all shots up to date. She is potty trained, goes out and straight back in. She shakes both paws. Tinkles a little when she gets excited. Chases her tail and loves snuggles. She was abused when we got her as a puppy. She hid in my kitchen corner for a month before she would come to me. She's came a long way. She does not like loud noises, voices or chaos. It scares her. She needs a quiet, loving, tolerant, fenced in home so she can run out her energy. She will chase deer and other wild animals but she is very trainable if you have the time and commitment. We don't want to rehome her but we are out of options. We are going to be homeless if we don't, so pls only inquire if you plan to be good to her, keep her for her lifespan, love her, play with her, care for her, feed her, exercise her, and snuggle her. She is worth it!

Story
Vader was born October 20, 2019. He is a very loving dog that needs lots of attention and affection that we are not able to give him as much as he needs. We have 2 young children and 2 other dogs in the house along with him. We thought we had found him a home but the transition wasn't right for him and he came back to us. My 2 year old is high energy and can be rough at times and although he does very well with her it causes him a lot of stress and he takes it out on 1 of our other dogs. He is pretty much house trained but we use a male wrap to keep him from marking on things. He needs a home with older kids or an older person to give him all the love and attention he can get. He would benefit from being the only dog in the home (gets along fine with dogs but is very jealous when the other dogs gets attention and not him) but does really well with cats. He's truly a sweet heart and just needs the best home!

Meet Maddie, she's a petite little Pittie. 3 years old. She is a little scared at first of new people but warms up quickly and loves affection. Was around 4 children 2 and up. No cats she chases them.Does better with male dogs. She is heartworm negative . Maddie does have some separation anxiety she isn't fond of being alone. She would do amazing in any family. The owners have had a series of downfalls recently and they surrendered her to us so we can find her a new forever home.

Story
Ralphie is a loving sweet boy whose smile is the biggest in the county. As we are in the middle of some big changes we know Ralphie needs more attention than we can give right now and we are sadly unable to take him with us. We found him as a stray but he has been with us about 7 years. He is super mindful and very gentle around all ages. He is an amazing walking partner and he LOVES to play with a soccer ball.. in fact it's all he will play with. He is a bit afraid of storms but ok as long as he is with you. We truly want him to have room to play with a great family to love.
