Story

This is Ivy! Ivy is such a sweet dog. She loves cuddles! She’s a little over 2 I believe but I rehomed her from a close friend a few months ago. She requires a lot of attention and has a lot of energy so I’m hoping she finds a home where she can have the freedom to run and play! She is a little skittish but once she gives you a sniff she turns into the biggest baby! She is potty and kennel trained as well!

Looking to rehome our 3 year old Golden retriever. His birthday is 2/20/2023. He is pure bred & did go through obedience training. He needs to be able to run around and be loved on as much as possible. I unfortunately do not have the time that he deserves.

Story

I’m looking for a loving and responsible new home for my 3-year-old female Belgian Malinois. She is a loyal, intelligent, energetic, and protective dog with a lot of personality. I’m looking for someone who understands the commitment that comes with owning a Belgian Malinois and can provide her with the exercise, structure, attention, and continued training she needs. I want her to go to a stable home where she will be treated as part of the family and given the time and care she deserves. My biggest priority is finding the right home for her—not simply the first person interested. I’m happy to answer questions and make sure she’s going to someone who is prepared for the responsibility of owning this breed.

Lucy

Mutt

Female, Young

Lafayette, LA

Size

(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Details

Good with kids, Good with dogs, House-trained, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

We found Lucy near my daughter’s home and I took her home. I work Monday through Friday and she’s unfortunately in her kennel during those times. She’s less than a year old and has A LOT of energy. Would really benefit from a home with a yard. She plays really well with other dogs, loves to fetch, and is good with kids. She would ideally go to a home that has a human that would have time to play with her, a yard, and another dog or kid friend to play with.

Dottie

Mutt Australian Shepherd

Female, Puppy

Lafayette, LA

Size

(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Details

Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Dottie was found in a ditch on Christmas Day-a little Christmas miracle! She was only 7ish weeks old. Since then, she has been growing and learning so much - including a 6-week basic obedience training. She is full of energy & happiness, and maybe a little ADHD. She plays well with other dogs (goes to daycare sometimes) but she does like to retreat to her own space. She doesn’t understand her strength yet, so she plays a little rough for kids. She would do great with a backyard to be able to get that energy out & could also be a great sport dog. She sits at the door when she needs to potty, but is still learning to hold it for long periods while alone. Unfortunately, I travel for work and it’s getting difficult to make sure she is cared for while I am away. When I’m home, she has my allergies working overtime in my small, yard-less apartment. This is so difficult, but I’m hoping there’s someone out there who can continue loving & caring for her, and can provide more stability for home.
