Story
Athena is a beautiful dog. She is a little big and active, thus she needs some space to move around. We've had her for four years and she's been a good doggie. Unfortunately, our lives have changed a lot and we don't spend any time home anymore due to work. Athena doesn't do well staying most of the day on her crate and we feel she deserves to be in another home where she'll have more company. Athen is trained to do her needs outside. She used to know basic commands, but she needs a little refresh. She has never bitten or acted aggressively towards humans or animals. She's a sweetheart.

Izzy will need someone who can continue to work with her on her potty training.

Story
Hi everyone I would like you to meet Pops (or as I call him Popsy) a very sweet, loving and special little boy. His life has not been an easy one. This little soul was abused and neglected his entire life by the people who were supposed to love and care for him. We were asked to take him and of course we said yes! Only skin and bones(6 lbs.),matted,not neutered and rotten teeth we got to work to make him healthy. And we did! Pops is 11 yrs. young and thinks hes a puppy definitely has a bounce in his step now that he is pain free! But mostly wants to chill with his person.He is utd,neutered and has had most of his teeth pulled and can now eat pain free. Pops is mostly house trained but will have accidents.Pops does well with other dogs as he has a few foster siblings. In spite of what he has been through he is a sweet,loving,happy boy he loves everyone and deserves a loving forever home. If you think you have room in your heart and home for this precious little boy please go to Pawingmywayhomerescue.com and fill out an application.Fees apply

She loves to play catch she'll even throw the ball to herself and chase it! She goes pee outside. Sleeps in her pen with her trampoline bed with a toddler bed ontop! Brianna does have some special needs due to her being a tripawd although don't tell her she doesn't have 4 legs because she'd beg to differ! She does hold her pee but does have fecal incontinence which we are willing to teach the right furever how to make not such a big deal!
