Story
Friendly, energetic dog looking for a loving new home. Due to our busy schedules and a new baby on the way, we unfortunately no longer have enough time to give him the attention and exercise he deserves. He’s a happy, active dog who needs plenty of room to run around and burn off his energy. We’re hoping to find him a caring family with the time, space, and commitment to give him the happy life he deserves.

Story
Bruno was originally adopted from Common Sense For Animals, he is a super loving dog and is very trainable. He enjoys walks, chewing on toys, eating treats, and snuggling. He is loyal and protective. He is best suited for a one person home without other animals around. Other animals like fish or other small animals in tanks would be acceptable around him however he has a high prey drive and cannot resist chasing squirrels, deer, bunnies, and oddly leaves blowing in the wind. He is adorable and a big love bug, despite his intimidating looks he is a softy who is protective at the right times. Loyalty is his key trait and he often will guard the person he feels most loyal too, this could cause problems in a multi-family home especially with younger children. He is best suited for someone living alone who can accommodate to his loving personality!

Story
Dog (diesel )American staffordshire terrier 10 years old Medication Muvoflex (joint supplement) Apoquel (allergy) Neutered yes Diesel is such a great dog I have had him since 7 (I rescued him) he just turned 10 in may. He is a couch potato but also loves laying outside in the sun or going for walks. He is cat friendly and not aggressive to children or adults. Likes small dogs but any dog bigger or the same breed not a fan. Is fully trained does not need to be in a crate. he is getting older if I’m leaving the house for a little bit of a longer period of time I do put a diaper on him just because of his age sometimes he can’t hold it, but he never just purposely goes and pees on the floor. He needs a family who will be able to spoil him and give him the life he deserves. He really is the sweetest. I will include his toys, food and medication that I have. I am also open to potentially continuing to supply his medicine if it means, he’s going to a great home.

Story
“I'm an energetic dog ready to run and play for hours! Chewing on squeeky toys and tug of war are my favorite activities indoors, and I love zooming around outdoors. Happy to play with anyone - kids, other pets, adults, etc. - just as long as they can keep up! At the end of the day though, I'm perfectly content with cuddling up and sleeping through the night (or day) with you.“ Sparrow is a 30lb, 3 year old dog looking for a family to settle down with for life. She's very sweet and rarely barks. She's very treat motivated and eager to learn more. They are potty trained to wait to go outside, but will also go on pee pads if they're available. If you or anyone you know is interested in giving this good girl the best life she deserves, please reach out! Sparrow will have all her vetwork done prior to adoption (vaccine, microchipped, heartworm tested, etc).
