Story
I hate to be making this post but unfortunately I cannot keep Lily. I adopted her a few weeks ago and she’s genuinely the sweetest thing. She loves to cuddle, play, and just be in your skin. For some weird reason, she absolutely refuses to get along with my first dog . (Another Malinois..) My boy doesn’t provoke, cross boundaries or do anything that might cause her to correct or bite. It is completely unprovoked. She does however get along with dogs I see outside and my roommates dogs which are boy and girl. So I think she’d might do better as the only dog.

Midas will be 4 years old, this December, he weighs. A range from 150 to 165 pounds He's a really good dog. With family, friends and kids, we really didn't have him around any other pets. This is my son's dog and he moved out to an apartment. out of town and he can't take him with? I don't have no time for midas with work. Midas is really well taken care of. He's pretty much trained. Just want him to go to a good home. Where he'll be loved. And have a family that has time for him.

Story
This is a Shiba Inu I rescued roaming in the desert behind my house. She was not in great condition. I have pics for proof. I have done my best to bring her back to life. She is a Shiba Inu/Husky mix with street dog vibes. She loves hikes, river days, camping and SNOW. This girl loves snow. Will sit, shake, stay and lay down for treats if she feels like it. She does have a very Shiba temperament. Which means she needs a one person owner, lots of personal space, no other dogs and no kids. She is very driven and smart and needs constant stimulation. She needs work I cannot provide as I have two smaller dogs and kids. I can tell she is uncomfortable in this environment. I think the kids and other dogs in my home stress her out. Which is why I’m trying to find a better suited home for her. She is 30 pounds and I can see her thriving in a better environment. If willing to invest in training and time. She would be a great adventure pal and protector.

Pickle

Terrier (Unknown Type, Medium)

Size

Story
This cute little lady is Pickle. She is estimated to be about 1 1/2 years old, fully up-to-date on all shots, microchipped, and spayed. We adopted her from her 2nd foster out of the shelter not knowing much about her past other than she was not adapting well and seemed to have anxiety. We were told she was kid- and dog-friendly. We have had her for about 2 months and in this time have found that she is very reactive to dogs, especially while out walking on the leash. She has not shown aggression towards our kids. She is a sweet young dog that will basically be your shadow. We are looking to find her a home where she can get all of the training, time, and attention she needs to thrive.

Reggie

Australian Cattle Dog

Male, Young
Las Vegas, NV
Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Good with dogs, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained,
Story
Reggie has been in our family for 9 months. He plays beautifully with our other cattle dog. He is an excited, happy 2 year old that likes to jump. He still acts like a puppy. He would definitely benefit from more training. He attempts to go after cars sometimes on our walks. My mom lives with us, she has alzheimer's and is less than five feet tall. She is in decline and has come too close to being knocked down by Reggie. She is scared of him and he has reacted to that with barks and growls. We are very sad that he won't be able to stay in our family. We will miss him desperately and we want him to be loved by his new family.
