Story
Mya was 1 year old when we adopted her in 2022. She’s a good Girl. We adopted her for our daughters. With one child heading off to college and one who is crazy busy all the time we just don’t have the time to give Mya the attention she deserves. Mya does just about anything for a treat. She knows how to sit, lay down, target, shake, and many other fun tricks. She is potty trained. She never has an accident inside even when our busy schedules neglect to let her out properly. She loves pets and people. She is great with our girls and loves to run around and play with her stuffy. She doesn’t jump on people or growl. She does bark occasionally but it’s a one time bark to let you know she needs to go potty. We love Mya and we just want to see her go to a good home who will love her as well. Somewhere with a fenced yard she can run and play. A home that will give her lots of love and attention. All the things she used to get here before our lives got so busy.

He’s 6 years old. He thrives off of having room to run around. And be his goofy self. He loves being around people and will let you know it. It hurts me to have to rehome him but he is a very playful pup.

Story
Bubba is some sort of pointer mix and is about 4 years old. Such a sweet boy who has always welcomed affection and has such a love for life. When we found him, he was quite emaciated and required proper refeeding and lots of love. Our family felt as though he found us for a reason and therefore he has been at home with us, hoping his owners may respond to social media posts however this never happened and unfortunately, he was never microchipped. He is doing really well right now in regards to having gained appropriate weight and although we will miss him, we are not in a position to keep him long term. Bubba is a high energy dog that thinks he is a lap dog:) Requires ability to get significant amount of exercise daily. Loves walks, car rides and palling around. Knows basic commands. Walks well on a leash but requires redirection with bunnies/other dogs/some people as he will bark. Has started to play along fence line with neighbors dog. Warming up to our FIVE cats :)

Story
B2 yrs old Chi X, colored like a Rottie, with lots and lots of puppy energy, and barks like a hound dog. She is pottie trained and enjoys racing around the backyard playing keep-away with the rest of her pack; especially with crinkle and squeaky toys. Bunny enjoys being sung to using her name ("Every BUNNY loves some BUNNY sometime"). Bunny wants her forever home to have lots and lots of cuddles and lots of lap time. She expects to sleep next to, touching, her favorite human. In return she will guard and protect her new family from all dangers. ##2706756##

Mini Schnauzer, microchipped & current on meds. Very polite, petite, and quiet little girl. Gets along well with other dogs and people. Potty training is a work in progress. Cuddles are a must in her forever home. Especially cheek to cheek cuddles. I am losing my hearing and vision due to my age, but would still love to spend my golden years with you!   ##2723601##

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Meet Nellie a stunning 8-year-old blue Doberman girl with a classic cropped and docked look and a heart just as beautiful as her sweet eyes. She’s the kind of dog who turns heads everywhere she goes—and once you meet her, she’ll win your heart just as fast. She has some hair thinning and areas of hair loss. She may need a little extra skin care and a family who understands that her beauty shines far beyond her coat. She is also heartworm positive but has started treatment and is on road to recovery. Nellie is a sweet, affectionate girl who loves her people and enjoys being part of the action. She’s ready for a stable, loving home where she can settle in, be cherished, and finally stop worrying about what’s next. If you’re looking for a loyal companion with a gentle soul and don’t mind a little “less fur, more love,” Nellie just might be your perfect match.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.United Doberman Rescue Adoption Process Application Submission: Complete the adoption application thoroughly.
