Story

Hello! I have a purebred Rottweiler looking for a good home! Nala is 9 years old but you’d think she was still a pup with the energy she still has! We’ve had Nala since she was a puppy but unfortunately life has made it so Nala no longer gets the amount of attention she deserves. She’s been wonderful with our 2 children as well as any and all children and people who have entered our home or outside of our home. She is the most loving and affectionate pup and loves everyone. There’s not a mean bone in her body towards anyone! We are hoping Nala finds a wonderful new home to spend her remaining years with the love and attention she deserves.

Buddy James

Miniature Poodle

Story

Buddy James! What can I say about this little guy, other than he reminds me of an over laundered Easter Bunny. BJ as I call him was returned to Rescue, reason: he doesn't like kids. He's nipped at his adopters 10 yr old a couple of times. He really didn't care for Pia (the pup we were told he was bonded with). I can tell you, he's a lap warmer, a shadow and cuddle bug. He's clueless on a leash and wears a bellyband. He enjoys going outside and watching out the window. He was a perfect little man in the car. He been fine with both my small dogs and large fosters. He does have a slight vision issue but that doesn't seem to effect his ability to run and play. Buddy James is 5 years young about 12lbs and said to be a poodle mix. https://airtable.com/shrSbfFkCdeRMtZw2?fbclid=IwAR2Q_R2qh2bk6pwcDPnrL8722wGTJORafSAWJObVLvz0g6ASJOFxLIdvsRw

Story

Adopted Boston Rob from a shelter when he was a few months old. He just had his first birthday. He is up to date on shots, crate trained, house broken, microchipped, good with other dogs and children. He needs a home where he can run for miles. He is in a crate all day and has so much energy to burn when is let out. I am a teacher and have after school activities that keep B-Rob in his crate longer than I would like. He is a good dog and would make someone a good companion. He loves big and loyal.
