Story
This boy is a very special dog, that needs a very special human. Bentley is a Dutch Shepherd and Belgian Malinois. He is loveable, smart and very shy. He would do great with another dog to boost his self confidence. Bentley needs time to warm up. He likes kids, but would probably do best with older children. He likes dogs, but has never been around a cat. Bentley needs a home/family that is willing to be patient and work with him, to try and build his confidence. Bentley is housetrained, crate trained, neutered, up to date on vaccines, and Microchipped.

Story
The most affectionate dog youll ever meet. I fostered ladybug on behalf of my family’s changed living circumstances. and it was the best decision Ive ever made. She loves doing anything you do, whether its napping all day, sitting on the porch and enjoying the breeze, going hiking, or laying next to you while you watch TV. Shes an absolute cuddle-bug who will do anything to receive affection or playtime. She loves all sorts of people, especially men, and will loyally stay by your side throughout the day. She has an incredibly tolerant disposition- throughout my 3 years of owning her, she never once growled at me, or any other person, despite how much I try to annoy her. Shes gentle despite her size, and will love you as much as you let her! I cant keep her due to my living situation and it has crushed my soul, im looking for a family who will love and cherish this silly goose as much as I have. Shes about 6-7 years old, and seems to have been a mother at some point. Spayed.

Story
Shadow is a 5 year old male, neutered dog. I’ve had him since he was a puppy. Shadow is a sweet dog that loves to sleep by your feet on the bed. He loves being outside and in fact, would do best with someone who loves to be outside too. Before recently, we would go on long walks together. He doesn’t have much of a play drive besides being outside and running around (he doesn’t play with toys much). He does love a good chew bone. He’s gotten along with several cats we’ve had over the years and gets along with our small Boston Terrier. However, he does not seem to like other dogs in passing on walks and such. I’ve never taken him to a busy dog park so I’m unsure how he’d do there. He generally loves people. However, and this is why we are looking to rehome him, kids make him very nervous. Always have. And our LO is about 1 now (we’ve been trying to make it work this whole time) and it doesn’t seem fair to Shadow or the family to keep him. I’m running out of characters to type so ask Q’s!
