Story
Due to no fault of her own, Cristal was surrendered due to the breakup of her humans and neither parent could take her with them. From her foster parents: "Cristal is just a pleasure to have as a house guest. She’s potty trained, walks beautifully on a leash and best of all, is so playful and affectionate. She knows basic commands and is food motivated making her easy to train. Crystal is very watchful and intuitive and just wants to be by your side. She loves tug toys, but most of all squeaky toys (the louder the better!) and playing fetch with them. Any adventures are a highlight of Cristal’s day! Car rides, walks, hikes- she loves them all and gets so excited when she sees her leash out. She just wants to be by your side and in on the fun. Cristal is very observant and extremely intelligent. She knows commands- sitting for her meals, waiting, off (except when she just can’t control her excitement!) and is well behaved both inside the house and outside.Cristal is 56 lbs, potty trained, walks beautifully on the leash and has been trusted home for short periods of time (2 hours). She has pretty blonde fur, talks to you in her own language of little woofs and those big brown eyes follow you throughout the day! We would keep her in a heartbeat if we didn’t have Princess Piper!" We do not know what she thinks of cats. Cristal does not like to have the top of her head touched so a home without young children who cannot understand this is preferred. Cristal is about 3-4 years old and a slightly overweight 57 pounds. We do NOT ship our animals. All adoptive families must travel to us to meet their adoptive dog/cat.

Story
Daisy is nearing almost a year old. We added daisy yo our family through a neighbors purebred family. She has a bright personality and loves running outside and in the water. Our family's schedule got a lot more busy all of a sudden and we want the best care for Daisy. Daisy can also be a bit shy with new comers so please give her time to warm up. We would prefer her next family have a fenced yard she can play in. We hope Daisy's next family is warm, caring, and sweet.

Story
Molly gave birth to 5 puppies while in rescue. She was a wonderful Mom to her babies and now it's time for everyone to find their forever homes. Molly is now spayed so her Mommy days are over and her babies are weaned and thriving. Molly is good with people and other dogs. She has quite different look to her - her face looks like a Schnauzer but she has a long torso and short legs like a Dachshund. She is both beautiful and unusual to look at but whatever she is mixed with, Molly has the sweetest personality! She loves to be by your side and getting petted. She will follow you around and walks well on a leash. Molly is housebroken, good with other dogs and does not mind cats. She is about 6 years old and 28 pounds.
