Story
We've had Kharma since she was 6weeks old. She is a absolute joy to be around. Very loving. She has been a inside dog her whole life, loving on her humans. She comes from a single dog home but does well with other dogs when we've taken her to other homes in visits. She is a huge softy. She loves cuddles. Shes happiest just being near her people. She turned 10 on 11/18. She had been raised with kids and does well with smaller children as well. We do not want to give her up but a series of unfortunate events had led us here. If you have the time and love to give she would make an excellent addition.

Details
Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
My name is Zeus. I am a 3.5-year-old neutered, male Siberian Husky. I was rescued in May 2023 when I was about 7 months old. The police found me tied to a tree in the park. A nice man adopted me and we have been together since May 2023. My human works 10 hours a day and I stay home alone in my crate, he has decided to re-home me to give me a better life. A husky needs exercise and we did not have a fenced-in yard, but he would walk me on the leash and take me to the park. I was spoiled with toys, and he would play with me, but I never had enough time with him before bed. I am now living with my grandma who has health issues and cannot keep me. I know most commands (sit, shake, etc.).I am potty trained and will bark twice or touch the doorknob with my nose if I want to go out. I am crate-trained, leash-trained (although when I want to go for a walk, I will get Zoomies).I am a very good dog. I have a large, heavy crate, beds, toys, bowls, leashes, etc. that will come with me.

Story
Bones is the most sweetest lovable dog I’ve ever been with. He’s very slender and can run 32 mph. He’s always happy and always wagging his tail. I found him on the side of the road about a mile from my house in the fall of last year and brought him home and got along great with my other two dogs up until two weeks ago. Now he feels the need to run from one of my dogs because he always wants to fight him. He knows many house tricks and his house trained and is very lovable. He actually has a spot of Hair on his side that looks like Woodstock. He loves all types of activities like playing ball, but his best feature is his cuddling. Great with children and great with cats. He’s very shy at first but once you get to know him, he’s very loyal I truly wish I could keep him, but my other dogs were here first. You definitely would have a friend for life and I’m assuming he’s approximately two years old.
