Millie is a seven year old gsp. She is a great dog who needs more attention than we can give her. We recently had a newborn baby and we have limited time for her. She has a nerve condition in her trachea that makes her vomit frequently. She is very energetic and loves to cuddle (on top of you) lol. She is a great dog and we are looking for someone who has the time for her.. any questions please feel free to send message thanx

I have a 2 year old CANIS PANTHER (rear breed) breed dog. He is an excellent guard dog and takes to positive training well. He is very energetic and loves to go on walks. He is NOT a cold weather, outside dog. He doesn’t do well with other dogs if he isn’t properly introduced. He is full of life and a great companion.
