Story
Skye is a great dog who enjoys moderate activity like daily walks or just being let loose in a fenced yard to sniff and chase whatever bugs she sees. She has lived in small, one bedroom apartments and family sized homes. She gets along with other dogs big or small. She has an easy going temperment but will let you know if it is time to go for a walk. She is house broken and sleeps in her kennel just fine at night. She does a great job of letting you know if she needs to go outside, especially if it is an emergency! She has always had great health and has never been overweight. I need to re-home my best friend of the past seven years because I am unable to take her to my next military location. Skye is a good dog and I hope to find her a good home.

Story
Juno is a great dog. She snuggles and naps like it is her job and you will become the sole focus of all of her love. I rescued Juno three years ago and she has been a fantastic companion. She prefers napping over all other things in life. I take her on two walks a day but those are more for her sister, Skye, than for her. She can bark but I could not tell you what that sounds like because it has been so long since she has. I know how she sounds when she snores though, girl is a lumberjack sawing those logs. A significant other of mine had two small dogs and Juno always got along with them just fine. However, I do not recommend dog parks. She much prefers just being a house hippo and chilling.

Story
$0 fee - 100% (dna) american staff. 56 pounds about a year old, rescued over the winter. He is a total lover , smart, house trained, but has become a little too protective of mom. I love him and he knows basic commands and is housebroken. He has an Alcatraz crate he comes with. Utd on shots and microchipped and fixed. He has become very protective of me ( single mom of 4) and my kids aren’t loving it. He plays catch is good on a leash. I do crate him when I leave but recently have had him out for small periods of time and he’s done well. He thinks he’s a lap dog and is very loving. Would do well with someone active who is looking for a best friend. He is gorgeous. Walk him daily and he is comfortable playing in the yard. As I write this is sitting on my lap like a big baby. All dog treats toys and such etc free with him. All I ask is you love him. He plays with a pitbull friend on weekend so seems good with other dogs. Typical bull looks tough but is a lover!

Story
Max is 3 years old. Max is a happy dog and loves attention. Max is a goofy dog. Max does know a few commands as sit, down, and off. Max is used to being around children. Max still needs more training with not jumping on people for attention. Max is crate trained and house trained. I am looking for someone that is great with dogs and can provide a loving home for Max. I think a home with children 7 years or older and with no cats would be best for Max. Max is a strong dog. Max is currently homeless and is in need of a home as soon as possible.

Story
Meet Nugget! Nugget is a playful, energetic, and affectionate 1-year-old terrier mix looking for a forever home! Weighing in at 60 pounds, he has the scruffy charm of an oversized Border Terrier and the intelligence and drive typical of terriers. Nugget is still very much a puppy at heart—full of enthusiasm, curiosity, and a love for adventure. This smart and eager-to-please boy just finished 4 weeks of professional training—and he did amazing! He’s great with commands and learned so much. A fenced yard is a plus for Nugget, as he loves to play and explore. Whether it’s hiking, running, or fun training sessions, Nugget is always up for an adventure. He also has great recall, making him a fantastic outdoor companion.Like most terriers, Nugget is incredibly intelligent and would do best in a home with adults or older kids who can match his enthusiasm and love for playtime. He is good with other dogs. If you’re looking for a fun-loving, smart, and adventurous pup to join you on hikes, runs, and training sessions, Nugget might be your perfect match!
