Needs experienced adopter, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Klepto was adopted from a shelter in December of 2022 where he was living in very poor unsanitary conditions. After adopted he began showing signs of food aggression, this was corrected by feeding separately and monitoring of food was around. This behavior has not been witnessed by owner since February of 2023. Klepto has gone through periods of successful potty training but is not fully trained. He is an invader of personal space and loves to be close. He is initially nervous around new dogs but is very friendly and playful once he warms up. He is also friendly with cats. He has lived with 1 dog, 1 cat, and 1 child since his adoption. He is highly intelligent but very stubborn and full of personality. He is in need of an owner with adoption and training experience. He also needs a large outdoor area where he could spend lots of time outside as he LOVES to run, preferably a farm. He does have a guard dog and protect mentality. Would be a great livestock guard or kid protector.

Story
Our family got Snickers in December or 2020 as a puppy. Her birthday is October 26th. She is 2 1/2 years old. She is a precious, loving and playful puppy. She thrives on attention and this is why we are having to rehome her. My son has started playing travel baseball. We are gone to practice and tournaments so much...it is not fair to her. Snickers sleeps in a crate at night and is hooked to a cable during the day to be able to move around. She loves to take walks, play ball and to be loved on. She normally eats once a day in the mornings. She is not used to eating table food except randomly I will give her a treat. She is completely caught up on her shots and medical exams. She has been treated for 3 months with a combination flea and tick treatment and has been treated for the year for heart worms. We are looking for a home where Snickers can receive the love and attention that she deserves. Please reach out to me with any other questions or concerns.

Story
This is an abandoned dog who is being cared for by myself and my friend. He has gotten off his leash but did not harm any of the cats at our home. He would definitely behave better if he was not on that harness all the time. He is living outdoors currently but is very sweet and very loving and very eager for a new home and good guidance. My heart hurts for him out in the weather and the heat mostly alone. He would make a great dog and would be great to protect a family and children and also maintain his loving character at the same time.
