Story
Lucky is the most soft-hearted little soul, gentle and sweet just like a baby. He loves going on adventures and exploring the world around him, sniffing every corner with pure curiosity and excitement. More than anything, Lucky loves people — he lights up around humans and just wants to be close, soaking up all the love and attention he can get. He’s super needy in the most adorable way, always following along, wanting cuddles, and making sure he’s never too far from the ones he loves. His tender heart and affectionate nature make him truly special. 🐾💛 Lucky is not a guard dog, he can go with anyone! But need someone that’s have experience with GSD!! Lucky needs more training!

Baba (9) & King (6) – Bonded Pair Seeking Their Forever Home ❤️With heavy hearts, we’re looking for a loving home for Baba and King. They belonged to our beloved son, Steven, who passed away. Since then, we’ve made sure they have been safe and well cared for. If we could have kept them ourselves, we would have done so in a heartbeat, but we already have our own dog.Baba is incredibly affectionate and loves to cuddle. She just wants to be close to her people.King is a gentle giant who loves everyone he meets. His favorite thing in the world is playing fetch, and he has a sweet, loyal personality.They are deeply bonded and must stay together. They sleep together, comfort each other, and have been inseparable for years.We’re looking for a loving family who will give them the home they deserve. A modest adoption fee applies to help ensure a committed home.Please message me if you’d like to learn more.❤️ Please share!

Story
The sweetest smartest & neediest teddy bear. He will be 7 August 26th but he still has the puppy mindset & energy. Suffers from only child syndrome so everything MUST be about him! Also very vocal! Has a poultry allergy so we stick to fish & red meat. He has husky fur so he gets groomed every 6 weeks. Trained with a lot of commands. Sit, speak, paw etc. However the husky in him makes him an escape artist. He’s not good with recall/ off leash adventures, he loves to chase rabbits. He needs a yard or someone who can spend a good amount of time with him. He’s the sweetest boy ever.

Story
I adopted Leo in 2014 when he was only 1. He has separation anxiety at times and loves to be part of the "pack". He is good with kids, but difficult with very young children that dont understand not to hit or grab. He is very loving and protective. When my wife was pregnant he would get between her and any other dog that approached us. His energy is higher than expected for a nearly 13 year old dog. He is custom to texas heat, colorado winters, and boston weather. He needs a home where he can get the attention he needs without the worries or a very little one grabbing him or disturbing him while resting. Leo is kind, gentle, loving, charismatic and all around a great fur child.
