Story
Hi, my name Milo and I am a 7 year old Jack Russel mix who loves adult companionship. I love to snuggle up on the couch with adults and enjoy short walks. I am older and looking for a calm environment without young kids. I am fully potty trained and am looking for someone who is looking for a new owner. I am very loved at my current home but I don’t enjoy the stress of small children.

Story
My son got this dog as a pup and raised him in his apartment. Ace loves to play catch and is very well behaved. He has always been with Lola, who we are also wishing to find a home for. We would prefer the 2 dogs be rehomed together. He is kennel trained and will go into the kennel when told.

Story
I got Milo when he was a puppy. His favorite game is fetch and he could play for hours. He loves hikes, camping, swimming, investigating new things. He taught himself how to play fetch by watching another dog do it. He is very intelligent and needs a lot of enrichment. I’ve had a lot happen in my personal life these past few years and have admitted to myself that I don’t have the time or resources to care for him in the way he needs. I work full time and am hardly home. He needs a home with a yard. He hasn’t been around other dogs since he was a year old and barks at other dogs when we pass on our walks. He would do best as the only dog unless you got a puppy after him. We've been working on his dog reactivity and it has gotten slightly better. He is a quick learner and Im positive he could be the perfect dog in little to no time. He’s tiny for your average heeler. Hes okay with cats as long as they are raised aside him. He is goofy and never seizes to make me laugh.

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

Story
Blue is to high energy for an apartment, with his size and the exercise he requires, a house is necessary. He is very affectionate but also loves nothing more than playing in any capacity from tug of war to wrestling to running around the apartment, he has very high puppy energy. He has not been socialized much but the interactions hes had with children and other animals have been positive. He does bark when people approach the door and is very territorial about his food. He is up to date on everything, paperwork will be provided, micro chipped, and healthy. He is experiencing some skin allergies at the moment but with the food I feed him, the fish oil and the countless medicinal sprays I have for him (which will all be provided) it is very manageable. Kennel and house broken. Comes with kennel, dog bed, blankets, large bag of dog food, medicine, toys, pretty much everything you would need for the first two months. I just want him to find him a good home and for him to be happy.
