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
Taz is very food motivated. He loves walks, sprinting, chewing bones, playing with balls and tug-a-war. He loves attention when he is in the mood. His kennel is his safe place when he is not in the mood for affection. Taz is stubborn, but very loving when he chooses his person. Taz is not an outdoor dog. He enjoys being outdoors for a little bit, but not all day. Taz is well trained and a great dog. He just has some quirks. He absolutely cannot be around other dogs. Taz currently is free roaming most of the day, but chooses to spend the majority of his day in his open kennel. Taz needs a tall, fenced in yard and walks. He is high energy and very good at jumping gates. He does OK with young kids. He prefers older kids. He will take time to adjust. He has separation anxiety and has been with us for 6 years. We are only rehoming to give him what he deserves, which is not something we can currently provide. Taz comes with all his things including leashes, kennel, toys, beds
