Story
​Meet an incredibly sweet, large terrier mix who is looking for a fresh start after being found abandoned. He is already neutered, fully house-trained, and has very low-energy—making him the ultimate laid-back companion. Because his history with other pets and kids is unknown, he is looking for a calm, mature, adults-only home where he can snooze the day away by your side. If you have room on your couch for a gentle giant, he’s ready to meet you!

Molly was brought home through NeedyPaws about 8 years ago. She’ll be nine on October 30th, 2026, born in 2017. She is a very loyal and loving dog. Looking for an owner that has the time to give her the attention she deserves. She’s good with other dogs as we know (we have another small dog).

Story
We adopted Esther from the Humane Society at 3 months old just after she and her brothers and sisters had been weaned off of their mother. We have 2 kids and a 7 year old Pit Bull Mix with whom she gets along well. We were hopeful about adding a second dog to our family but have come to realize that our schedules do not allow us to give a young puppy the training or attention that she needs to thrive. Esther is a sweet dog that needs someone who can be more focused on her development and can be more patient with her than we have been able to be. We are currently using a crate to train her, but during the week she can be in there for more than 8 hours per day (depending upon our evening schedules). We have made some progress with potty training; she does try to hold it as long as she can, but sometimes she just can't. She also submissively pees before taking her outside for a walk.

Story
I am a single mom with 3 kids under 5. I thought I could take care of my dog but it is way too much stress on top of kids. I have 2 cats but they stay away from the dog as Teddy is not good with cats. I have another dog in the house that Teddy gets along with. I also take him to daycare with other dogs
