Thor is a great dog that I have had for the last couple of years. He has been great around my neices and nephews ranging in ages from 16 to 5. I am now in a position that I can no longer keep him. I really want him to go to a home where he will be loved.

Story
In 2022, my husband and I found Stella on the side of a county road by herself. We rolled down the window of our car to see if she was okay. She wasted no time to jump right into the car with us. She was quite friendly and did not mind coming home with us. We searched the area for anyone missing a dog and even took her to the vet to check for a microchip. But, we only found that Stella had hookworms and scars on her legs. Ever since, we've had her as a part of our family. She is approximately 2 years old and FULL of endless energy! Not to mention, toys are a MUST for her obsession with them! An active lifestyle and plenty of room to run is a perfect home for her! Two words to describe Stella would be loving and energetic!

Story
Our dog Mitsie is approximately 15 years old and is white in color. Acquired her when she was 2 yrs. old for our youngest daughter. Very mild tempered, gets along with everyone. She is starting to not hear as well, and needs a little help with steps. Our daughter is no longer at home and being a retired couple, we are traveling a little more as time goes by. We feel she would be better off in a home that can give her more attention than we can give her.
