Story
Sam is the sweetest, most relaxed dog we've ever known. He loves lounging on the couch, soaking up the sunspots in the living room, or just being near his people. He almost never barks inside, is well-behaved, patient (except at dinner time), and has a laid back disposition. Even at 8 years old he still has his puppy speed and loves running after bunnies and squirrels in our yard. He chases after our cat around the house at times but then snuggles up to her when he thinks we're not looking. We recently had a baby and can tell that he thinks of her more as a toy than a companion and it’s easy to understand his confusion and frustration. We just don’t want to take any chances so unfortunately, with a heavy heart, we’re in search of a new home for our sweet boy. Sam would do well in a calm environment and with an owner or owners who are home often or work remotely. We want him to be safe, loved, and appreciated in a home where he can live out the rest of his years in peace and happiness!

Story
Luna is a sweet girl that is in need of a new home. She recently turned 1 year old. She is a playful & good girl, gets super excited when she meets new people, is potty trained, crate trained, and is good with other puppies, children and people. She goes for runs as often as possible, but for the most part stays at home. She is in need of a new home because I am currently going through a housing change and am unable to keep her. If you are interested in giving her a new loving home, she is excited to meet you! Feel free to contact me so we can discuss further on her and even meet her. Spanish available! :)
