As my work life gets busier, I cannot give Nina the time and attention she needs. She is a very good dog and has no issues. She can be a little fearful and timid at first but has a very fun playful personality once she gets comfortable.

Story
Winnie was adopted as a puppy and lived her first few months indoors. After having to relocate, she transited to outdoors due to her owner’s living situation. She has been living on a small “hobby farm” for the last couple of years (cats, chickens, goats). She does great with other dogs, she LOVES to play! She also does well with cats and other farm animals! She also really loves a good game of fetch and looooves swimming, she could do both for hours. Due to my changing living situation once again, I will not be able to take Winnie with me. As she has not been indoors for a couple years, if she were to transition to this setting it would likely take some getting used to for her as she has been staying outdoors (in a garage if weather is cold or stormy). She would do really good with a family/home that allows her to run a lot! She has so so much energy, but is truly a big lover! Sad to part with her, but with me moving again, I will not be allowed to have her indoors with me.

Story
Lucy is a great dog full of energy and pet. She is just right at one year-old, and could really use more attention than we are giving to her. She gets along very well with other dogs and is not aggressive. She also gets along well with our five cats. She’s used to being around children and small children, but doesn’t know her size and sometimes will knock them over. She’s also been known to lick small children in the face which they do not like. We give her locker rib bones to chew on. Great dog overall.
