Story
Rose is a very sweet 4 year old mixed breed. She loves cuddles and is super high energy. She has a large prey drive and would love hunting trips. Unfortunately, my other dog and her got into a fight and I no longer feel it is safe for her at our house. She will come with food, crate, toys, and everything that she needs to feel comfortable in her new home.

Story
This little boy was abandoned in a park so I took him in to prevent him from going to a shelter. He is an absolutely wonderful boy! I got him fully vaccinated, heartworm tested, neutered and microchipped. He will be neutered at the end of May. He’s quiet, calm, sweet, and playful. He loves to watch nature, take naps and go for walks. He’s terrific with my two Boston terriers. He’s now housebroken and crate trained. He enjoys small stuffed toys with squeakers. When he’s super happy he does puppy laps! He likes to cuddle but is happily independent too. He has never shown any aggression. He likes someone to sit with him while he eats. He does get car sick easily. I can’t for the life of me understand why someone would dump him! We can only have two pets or I would keep him. He’s a perfect little dog! He’s estimated to be a year old because of his pearly white teeth. He weighs 21 pounds and is a cute little low rider.

Contact foster at pauladgarzxon10@gmail.comI`m Magnum, the supercharged three-year-old pup here to spread some tail-wagging happiness your way. First things first, buckle up `cause I`m all about car rides – wind in my fur, tunes in the air, it`s like my own doggy party on wheels!Cuddles? Oh, you bet! I`m a cuddle champion, and there`s nothing I love more than snuggling up and soaking in all the love. House trained? Yup, I`ve got that covered too – no indoor mishaps with me around!Toys, toys, and more toys – they`re like my best friends! I`m a toy-tastic playmate, and fetch? Oh, you know it! I`ll chase after that ball like a furry lightning bolt.Energizer Bunny? That`s me! I`ve got more energy than a tornado in a doggy park, and I`ll keep going and going, ready for any adventure you`ve got in mind.Now, when it comes to my fellow four-legged buddies, I`m a bit picky. Some dogs, I`m totally cool with, but others, well, let`s just say I`m a bit choosy about who I hang out with.Energetic? Absolutely. Chewer? Guilty as charged! I can`t resist a good chew sesh, especially if it involves pillows, blankets, or even furniture – oops! But hey, it`s all in good fun, right? And guess what? Even though I might be a toy destroyer, I`m also a cuddle monster. I`ve got the perfect balance of play and snuggle!Sweetness overload alert! I`m like a sugar-coated marshmallow when it comes to meeting new people. And here`s a little secret: I might be three, but I act like a bouncy puppy half my age – age is just a number, pals!Playful is my middle name, and I`ve got a special talent – choosing random household objects over toys. Socks, shoes, you name it! As for correction, well, let`s just say I`m a free spirit who dances to my own tune.Quiet as a mouse, that`s me! I`m not one to bark up a storm, in fact, I`ve only barked once since leaving the shelter. And speaking of shelter, I`m a true people-lover, and being around humans is my ultimate happiness.Family dog potential? Oh, absolutely! With a bit of training, I`ll be the best family member you could ever ask for. And don`t worry, I seem to have this whole housebroken thing down pat.So there you have it, the whirlwind world of Magnum! Car ride enthusiast, cuddle guru, toy aficionado, fetch fanatic, and the world`s most energetic and affectionate pup. Life with me is a wild ride, and I`m here to make every moment a paw-some adventure!
