Nynx is the sweetest most loving dog any could have as a companion. She will lay around all day and snuggles with me anytime. She is very well potty trained and love walk, but needs to be on a harness. Eats well with a slow feeder bowl.

Story
Harper is a loving, intelligent Cane Corso mix looking for her forever home. Rescued in October 2024 after being found living alone in a garage, she was initially timid—especially around men—but has blossomed into a sweet, loyal, affectionate girl. Born around 4/21/24, Harper is 95% Cane Corso and 5% Staffy, DNA tested with no known health conditions, spayed, and regularly vet cared for.She has lived peacefully with two French Bulldogs and a Rottweiler, but would likely thrive as an only dog or with one well-matched dog so she can receive the attention and structure she deserves. Harper is a true snuggle bug who loves being near her people, short walks, car rides, and relaxing in the sun. She knows sit, stay, place, shake, and spin, and is very smart. Like many clever young dogs, she may counter-surf if food is left out. Harper would do best with someone experienced with large guardian breeds who can provide continued training, structure, and lots of love.

Story
Merlin was a year old when we adopted him from a reputable breeder in Portland Oregon. She wanted to show him, but he had a different opinion!He's an absolutely wonderful little guy but still needs a little training. Since retirement, my husband and I have had serious health issues. The last thing we wanted was to re-home Merlin, but it's not fair for a young dog to have disabled owners.Merlin is AKC registered, weighs 8 lbs, and will be 3 years old on Halloween.Please text me if you would like to meet him (7068369563). He will only go to the perfect situation and owners.

Size
(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)
Details
Not good with kids, Good with dogs, Good with cats, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained,
Story
We adopted Karl from a breeder as a pup. He’s always been very good with our other dogs and cats, he is intact. He does well with our children though he is very reactive with a lot of commotion but it’s always just barking; I definitely feel this is on us due to his breed needing to be worked daily and intensely trained. He listens very well, he never leaves his boundary, he walks our perimeter with me everyday for 40 minutes, he knows sit, down and shake. He is a good boy, our family is just too busy to give him the German shepherd attentiveness he needs. He does suffer from allergies (itching) but we have been able to resolve this completely with salmon food and withholding beef and pork from his diet. Someone who is experienced with separation anxiety, German shepherd or work breeds would do very well for Karl.
