Story
We adopted Buster from a passed relative. He is approximately 7 years old based on veterinarian reports. Even though he is very calm and layer back, he does not act old as I would describe. He will still play with kids and run with them if you interact with him. He is extremely loving and gets along with cats and other dogs very well, as well as the perfect dog for children. Never has he been aggressive in any way. In fact if your looking for a guard dog he is not that type. Just laid back, calm, and loving. He definitely could use to get his teeth checked at his age and gets a skin infection from time to time that will need anti-biotics or treatment. Other than that maintenance for him is very low.

Story
I’m currently being showcased by the Humane Society of Morrow County in hopes of finding my forever home. My previous owner made the loving decision to surrender me so I could have the best life possible, and now I’m ready for my fresh start. I’m about 3 years old (born July 2023) and weigh around 75 pounds — just the right size for big hugs! Here’s a little about me: • 🐾 Spayed female • 💉 Current on DHLP, Bordetella and rabies vaccines • ❤️ Heartworm negative • 👧 Good with kids • 🐱 Curious about cats • 🏡 House trained I’m in the prime of my life and have so much love to give. Whether it’s long walks, cozy evenings, or just being your loyal companion, I’m ready to be your best friend. Could you be the one to give me the forever home I’ve been waiting for?

Kona arrived as a stray. She is a big girl and loves people. We are guessing her to be 3 pulse years. She is very selective of her doggy friends. She keeps her kennel clean and loves her toys.  If you have interest please stop in during our regular business hours to meet and apply for him.
