Buddy is a loving smart dog . Extremely loyal. He knows how to fetch, sit, stay and even shake. He loves dog parks. Does super well in the car. The biggest cuddle bug.

Story
We have a beautiful 2 year old pitbull mix that needs a new home. She will do best as an only dog with someone willing to train her. She is very sweet, but gets jealous of our other dogs and has started a couple of fights with one of the other dogs. Her name is Penny. We adopted her from the humane society when she was 10 months old. She still isn't fully house trained, and needs to learn how to walk on a leash. She knows the commands: wait, come, down, off, and leave it. Proof she can learn. She is the sweetest girl and will love her person with her whole heart. She would love to be spoiled. She has lived in a home with 2 cats. One tolerates her and she goes after the more timid one. If your kitty can stand their ground, she learns to respect quick after a swat to the face. Thank you for reading.

Story
Ichigo is 5 years old. He's definitely a fun dog to be around, gets along with all pets or human and is always so curious about new things. He knows a few tricks and loves fetch, although he doesn't like to let go out the toy sometimes. Unfortunately he was diagnosed with IVDD and has been in my care since then so he's unable to walk due to his hind legs. I want him to go to a good loving home as I'll return to office soon and won't be able to care for him as often anymore.

Size
(when grown) Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less
Details
Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Chancellor is a small Corgi/Pomeranian mix who is neutered and microchipped. Who loves giving kisses and flipping his toys around. He can be playful or just very chill next to you. He trusts my son and me; we can pick him up, handle him anywhere, and handle his food or toys with zero issues or resource guarding. However, he is hyper-vigilant and reactive toward outsiders. He barks excessively at anyone he sees, and will snap if a stranger tries to pick him up or touch him before trust is established. He also gets easily overstimulated by young children and prefers to avoid large dogs. He was previously in a respite program and it was noted that he was struggling to adjust with new people trying to adjust his collar or harness and trying to clip leashes on him and he snapped at them. I am looking for an experienced adult-only and single-pet home or someone specialized that understands fear-reactivity. I want to ensure he goes to a someone who is equipped to handle his needs and behavior

Story
Monty (Beaumont) is the SWEETEST boy! He is 3 years old and a complete snuggle bug. He’s good with other dogs and kids, and has a moderate energy level. Monty has gone hiking and camping with us before, and would be your best adventure buddy. He is a dog that needs lots of love and attention, and unfortunately because of life changes, we simply do not have the ability to offer as much as this boy needs. He is currently going through heart worm treatment, but we would be happy to coordinate with the vet to cover those expenses upfront. If you’re looking for a buddy that will go with you anywhere and never run out of affection, Monty is your boy!
