Story
I got clementine when she's was just a puppy from the summit county pound in late 2022. I hope to find a new home where she can get the attention she deserves and patient owners. She is very energetic and sometimes doesn't realize her own size but also super cuddly. She's a good dog just not very well trained since I wasn't prepared for a bigger dog.

Story
My elderly parents (mom 75, dad 83) found this dog in Kenmore Ohio. He was maybe 3 months when they found him. A homeless guy was trying to feed him cigarettes because "he had worms". So they brought the dog home. My parents are too old for a puppy. This boy is so sweet and just wants love and attention. I believe he is at least part pit bull. My parents have an older small dog that Scout gets along with great. This dog needs a home with people who will not clearly out live him. We are willing to pay for his shots and for him to be neutered. We really just want him to go to a loving forever home. I will even travel a reasonable amount of time to get him to you.

Story
Boots is a great family dog. He has really made our children happy, unfortunately at no fault to his own he needs people who are home more and can walk and get his energy out. He loves to run and play and is great with kids and other dogs. He loves his toys and really loves to eat! He’s looking for an active home with people who will take him on walks daily. He is a large bernedoodle breed that is active and would do great in a fenced in yard. He will come with food, toys, cage everything to make this a successful transition for boots. He’s about a year old.

Story
Great dog. His breed is American Bully, it was not listed as an option. He is not a pit bull. He gets along with the female dog in house just not other male. We have had the other male longer so it was a sad decision but he needs a home he can run free and be spoiled in. He has not been around kids since he was a puppy. He is a little rambunctious.
