Story
Meet Baby Girl! She qualifies as an “elder bull” on paper but don’t let her hear you say that!! Baby Girl hops around like a happy bunny particularly if you have treats. Food is her love language but she also loves snuggles. When Baby Girl is ready for bed she takes her emotional support stuffie & arranges her blankie so she is totally buried under it & you don’t hear a peep out of her! Baby Girl came to us after her person passed away and there was no one to take over her care. It was so sad because she went everywhere with her dad. Baby Girl is great in public! She has an autoimmune disease which causes the skin around her eyes to look funny. It is easy to manage as long as she only eats her food ( it’s a mature lamb that we get from chewy) & her freeze dried liver treats. Baby Girl also gets a pill every night  ( prednisone which is very inexpensive) & she eats that in bougie peanut butter which only has 3 ingredients! ( seriously Amazon is the best invention ever) If you're looking for a total doll baby who is ready to devote her golden years to you, apply to adopt Baby Girl! All of our dogs are spayed or neutered, up to date on age appropriate vaccinations, microchipped and if over 6 months of age, heartworm tested and on heartworm preventative in their foster home. We require an approved application to meet any of our dogs. We do not have a shelter location and will not arrange a meeting without an approved application.

Story
Hi!  I’m Catherine! I’m a 3 year old good girl and I get really excited at meal time. So excited that I give the cutest yips when my food is being prepared. Food aside, I love a good game of chase outside in the yard with the other dogs in my home. After some fun I enjoy a little snuggle time with my people. I don’t mind when my foster family leaves the house. They just toss some treats and a chew toy in my crate and I can keep myself occupied. Are you looking to add a pretty girl who loves snacks to your home?  Hit me up!  All of our dogs are spayed or neutered, up to date on age appropriate vaccinations, microchipped and if over 6 months of age, heartworm tested and on heartworm preventative in their foster home. We require an approved application to meet any of our dogs. We do not have a shelter location and will not arrange a meeting without an approved application.
