Story
Laney has been a huge part of my life for more than ten years. She has been a best friend to me. She is cuddly, sweet and loving. I am a new mom to 10 month old baby and I’ve come to the sad realization I just can’t give Laney what she needs anymore while I’m learning to be a mom. I want Laney to experience the life she’s accustomed to. Long walks, sleeping in the bedroom, yummy snacks. She gets along with the new baby but she can no longer sleep in our bedroom anymore which makes me so sad. I’ve loved Laney for 11 years and she has brought me so much joy. I’m looking for a family that is happy to take in a spunky side kick. I want her later years of life to be comfortable and pleasant. I am doing my best but my husband is allergic so she doesn’t have full access around the house like she is used to and certain areas are off limits bc of the baby.

Story
Hello. I’m sad to say that my baby boy needs a new home with a loving family or couple. I received him from a friend at church and we’ve grown to love each other over a years time. But after his birthday in March 23rd, ALOT has changed in my family and personally. I’ve tried Facebook group but it’s filled with a bunch of trolls & ive tried shelters but they are all full 😔 Please help, I don’t want to just give him up to a shelter and I just wish the best for him.
