Story
Avocado is a 9 year old mixed breed. She is the epitome of a couch potato dog and would be the perfect fit for a senior looking for an easygoing and well behaved companion. She knows all sorts of tricks, is an easy walker (no pull), and is kennel trained. She is up to date on all vaccines, heart worm/flea prevention and annual bloodwork. She takes a daily medication called Proin that controls urinary incontinence but is otherwise a healthy girl. I am rehoming Avocado because even after 9 years, we have unfortunately never clicked, and I feel like I am doing a disservice to her by keeping her from someone she truly bonds with.

Story
Max was rescued at 1-1/2 (now 7years old). His owners were elderly and lived in a motor home. They could no longer take care of him. He was adopted by my daughter and 12 year old grandson. They also have a shiatsu and a Lhasa apso mix. Max fit right into the family. My daughter lost her home and she and her now 19-year-old son moved in with me (her mother). This was a temporary solution. The three dogs were included in this move. My daughter now has new housing which allows only 2 dogs and no large dogs. My grandson has moved in with friends and cannot bring Max. I promised to keep him until we found a good home for him. Max is a good dog and responds to some directions. He appears to be a very smart dog and is friendly once he becomes comfortable with strangers. This usually takes 10 minutes if you don't expect too much of him. He has never bitten any one while in our care. He is very protective and lets people know it with a growl. He needs someone who is active.

Story
SHAKIRA 1 year Attributes Dog friendly Needs another dog Housetrained Crate trained Likes car rides Potties on leash Medium energy Shakira is a one-year-old sweetheart with a gentle soul and a playful spark. She came to us as a stray and was understandably very nervous at first, unsure if people could be trusted. While she still needs time to warm up to new faces, once you earn her trust, she gives it wholeheartedly. Shakira forms deep bonds and will love you like no other. She's happiest snuggled up on the couch with her favorite humans or zooming around the yard, soaking up life with joy. Shakira absolutely loves her dog foster brothers, so having another playful dog in the home is a must for her—she thrives with a canine companion to help build her confidence and burn off energy. Shakira is potty trained, crate trained, and highly food motivated, which makes her a quick learner. She has learned a few commands since she came into foster care. She's medium energy and knows how to settle and relax, especially after playtime or a good walk. One of her most endearing traits is how excited she gets to greet her favorite humans in the morning—her happiness is contagious. She does well with small children once she gets to know them, but she can be a bit nervous around teenagers and may need patience and gentle introductions. Shakira loves going on walks and is learning her leash manners, though she's still prone to the occasional sudden lurch when an interesting smell catches her attention. With patience, love, and a playful dog sibling by her side, Shakira will blossom into an incredibly loyal, affectionate companion. She's a special girl just waiting for the right home to truly shine. NOTE: Dog may be located in any of our six volunteer states (WI, IL, IN, OH, PA, MI).

Ace is six years old, I got him from a breeder with paper. I may have to look for the documents because I did think I would ever need to use them. Ace is a loving and fun family member of my life and is always happy. Very playful and happy. Definitely a house dog. He has a strong bark and yet doesn't realize his strength.
