Story
Chase was adopted by a rescue for us back in November. He was young at 12 weeks. He was house trained immediately. He's very playful a lot of energy. I have two young boys that were new to having a dog and have been adjusting to him, but we also have two young cats as well that seem to create a lot of stimulation for him and he does not do well with the cats plus the boys we also relocated to a EHT into a town townhome and does have a smaller yard now that he's getting bigger. Would love to see him in the area that had a lot of space for him to run. I also work long hours and recently went through a separation and have limited help with dog sitting where he does have to be in the house for a 12 hour shift at a time. He does well with strangers we have a Dog Walker that comes, but that is a cost to me so I'm looking for a great home for Chase that has space possibly no cats or at least a lot of space to separate them older children and more company at the house . Thank you

Story
Maddie is in need of a Home. At 13–14 years old, this beautiful senior girl was facing a heartbreaking end. Her family was moving and, after much anguish, had made the difficult choice of humane euthanasia. They loved her deeply and, knowing how scared she can get and how seniors like her often do in shelters, they feared she would not do well there or ever truly find a home again. Sometimes families choose the option none of us want to hear because they believe it is the kindest one. But that’s where we came in. One of the veterinarians we work with reached out and asked if we could help Tux and Maddie because both still had so much life and love left to give. Of course, we said yes. Maddie is approximately 13 years old. She has been nothing short of amazing with every animal and every human she has met. Everybody who spends even a little time with her falls in love. We would love to find her a forever home as soon as possible. Do you know someone who can open their heart and home to this incredible girl? Here’s what you should know about Maddie: She is crate trained and housebroken. She is great with other animals and people. She is low maintenance and easy to have around. Is very well behaved and has some energy. She weighs approximately 65 pounds. She is in good overall health for a senior, with only some typical senior-dog arthritis. She is looking for a soft place for her to land. Please, help us give Maddie the miracle she deserves. Share her story far and wide. Ask your friends, family, coworkers, and neighbors. One person’s “yes” can change the rest of her life. If you’re interested in adopting, or if you have any questions, please email us at pawdazzlepet@gmail.com Maddie has so much love left to give. Let’s not let her story end without the happy chapter she’s earned.

Story
Looking for a loving home for an exotic, micro bully very friendly House trained kennel trained. We are unable to give him the time and attention that he needs. Would love to find him a home with someone who has other dogs and children, but any loving home that has a time and attention for him would gladly be appreciated. It is hard for us to let him go. We’ve had him for five years now, but the unfortunate change of the demographic of our family doesn’t allow us to keep him.Aiko is allergic to chicken and beef

With an easygoing nature, Zoey adapts to new environments with curiosity and courage. She's affectionate and adores playing with toys and snuggling up on the couch.

Story
Meet Knox, a gentle giant and loyal shadow who is ready for a new best friend. Raised in a loving home, he is professionally trained by J Mack K9 and knows sit, down, heel, stay, and come. He is fully potty and crate trained, sleeping soundly in his cage at night.Knox is high-energy and strong, so he needs a home with a fenced yard and no small children. He is easy to train and highly motivated by hot dogs—his favorite treat for nail clippings! Please note he has a poultry allergy and requires a poultry-free diet.Knox is a soulful companion who is deeply loved and spoiled, and he is ready to bring that same devotion to a lucky new family. I hope to find a home that I can keep in contact with him and send him toys.
