Daisy is 4 years old. She is very active. She is good with other dogs and kids. She is friendly and loves to play tug of war. Daisy would fit better in a home with a backyard that has fences as she liked to escape from times to times. She loves the cold weather and a good walk.

Story
Cali is a 8.5 year old doberman/terrier mix that we assume has some border collie as she looks just like one! We adopted her when she was 9 weeks old, and she is absolutely amazing, but she cannot be in a home with kids any longer, and we have 3. She needs a home where she feels like a part of the family, which is how we have always treated her. She gets anxious with certain things, so she needs patience and someone who is willing to help her be confident. She loves to play, go on walks, but also loves to crash out on the couch or in her beds.

Story
Nonna is almost 2 and is a 70 pound love bug. She's loyal and extremely cautious of new people. She would need a few meets and greets with her potential humans. Nonna has shown aggression to dogs and small animals. I have another cat and dog, I would not trust her completely unsupervised with my cat. She has not been aggressive to the cat, she is just so big and a bit to rough. Although, I would not feel comfortable with other small animals. She is extremely reactive.She is eager to please and very much a sweetheart, she needs more and deserves more than we can give. She would be a great farm dog, that would be my ideal home for her or at least some wide open space for her to enjoy.She has been raised with older children her entire life, again a meet and greet would be required, she is a very cautious girl. You would have to be patient and willing to build her trust. I would prefer someone who is familiar with her mix. She is 75% Great Pyr and 25% Rott.

Story
Meet Asher—A Sweet, Loving Shih-Poo Looking for His Forever Home 🐾❤️ It is with a heavy heart that I am looking to rehome my precious Shih-Poo, Asher, due to my chronic health issues. This has not been an easy decision, but I want to do what is in his best interest and find him a family who can give him the time, attention, and active life he deserves. Asher was born on February 24, 2026, and I brought him home when he was just 12 weeks old. He is a healthy, affectionate little boy with a gentle spirit. One of his favorite things in the world is cuddling. Whether you are relaxing on the couch or settling in for the evening, Asher is happiest when he is close to the people he loves. He is sweet-natured, loving, and enjoys being part of the family. He has brought so much joy and companionship into my life, and I am hoping to find someone who will cherish him just as much. I am looking for a responsible, loving home where Asher will be treated as a cherished member of the family—not

Story
Charlie is very energetic dog who loves people. He sometimes forgets how big he is and can be a little clumsy. He has had basic training and excels at sitting, staying, shake, and spins. Walks well with a no pull harness however fetch is not his choice of playtime. He’s done well with children around toddler age and above, we just think he needs more attention
