Story
This is a boy named Sue, named after the Johnny Cash song. He is a three year old pit mix. I am posting here in hopes of finding Sue a loving home. I unfortunately have a progressive disability that prevents me from taking proper care of him anymore. The plans I had for him and his sister Hella fell through. I'm hoping to find him a loving home that can take care of such a sweet boy.

Story
We adopted rocky from a pet store a little over a year ago and he is currently 18 months. We love rocky to pieces but unfortunately dont have the time due to our busy work schedules to continue loving him the way he should be. We're looking for a family that can give rocky all the love and attention he deserves as well as possibly a play mate. He is great with other dogs and kids and is an active lil pup that loves to play fetch and the occasional treat for a handful of ticks we've taught him. We prefer someone with experience and not a first time owner but simply want someone that will love him like we do. Rocky is potty trained but requires frequent walks as he is sometimes potty shy. (2-3 times a day). Please reach out with any other questions if need be!

Story
Ruff, my name is Finnegan and I am a sweet, cuddly gentleman who loves to be pet. My favorite activities are napping and running outside in the yard. I enjoy taking walks on a hiking trail and in a park, but can sometimes get a little spooked by other dogs so I must be leashed. I love to play in the lake but do not like camping- too scary! I prefer to sleep in the hallway instead of my bed- must protect my family from robbers, of course. Mom tells me I tend to get really anxious when I feel threatened. Problem is, i can be quite sensitive so seemingly normal things can make me nervous. I have an 8yo human brother who is my best buddy. I love to snuggle and lick his face. He has friends over sometimes and family visits most weekends. Extra people in the house can make me nervous so I tend to hang in a quieter room. Because of my nervous nature, mom thinks I would thrive in a home with no other dogs and no young children. I need an experienced home to offer me attn and training.
