Story
Gilligan is a fantastic dog, he has a great personality and and very loving. I like to describe him like the3rd hyena off of the lion king lol the only issue he ever has is he needs to eat separate from any dog/child or anything because he used to be bullied in a kennel and has attacked our child trying to help feed him. Just feed him separately and everything will be perfect ! Would be great at hunting as well, please someone come love my sweet boy 🩵

Story
Remi is 1 year 3 months old, 130 pounds. She has been to puppy training, house trained, and crate trained. She can sit, lay, stay, come when called, heel, and leash trained, Unfortunately Remi has started resource guarding with our other dogs. We have spoke with our Vet and this is common with this age and breed of dog. With additional training she should be able to work through this behavoir. Out of growing concern for our other 2 small dogs we believe it would be best if she was in a only dog home. She has been fine around dogs outside of our home (big or small), she often lays down to greet them. She has never been around small kids but has always been very friendly to anyone she meets. She has a very sweet and funny personality. Couch potato most of the time. She is still young so spurts of puppy energy is to be expected. Best if you have time and room for a XL breed. Continued training would be recommended as she is not done growing. She is up to date on all shots.

Story
Joey is a sweet dog who has been with us since he was 8 weeks old. He is now a 60 lb., 2.5 year old dog who is house trained to ring a bell when he needs to go. He has lived life mostly indoors. He is on a leash when he goes out. He loves people, but other dogs have scared him since he was attacked as a puppy. He is a medium-high energy dog that loves to play and run when he can. He is also a notorious sock thief and never refuses a nap when play time is over. He is microchipped, neutered, current on all shots and in good health. We are looking to rehome as we are not able to keep up with him due to changing work schedules.

Story
English Lab looking for a good home through no fault of her own. Her human has dementia and has been placed in a memory care facility and the family is unable to keep her. She is fully housebroken, knows basic commands: sit, comes when called and gives paw. She is slightly over weight and could stand a diet. This sweet girl was born with only one eye but it does not appear to affect her at all. She is happy just laying around and getting lots of pets and tolerates slow walks. She would be an amazing companion to someone older looking for a calm companion.

Welcome back Jax (Newton) ❤️ Born 5/19/23, approximately 20lbs, neutered male Introducing Jax! Jax is looking for a new family, he was adopted as a puppy but was returned to rescue. Jax is a Mountain Cur/ Australian Cattle Dog and Rat Terrier mix, which means he is driven and craves attention. He has an eagerness to please that we don’t see in many dogs, making him a fantastic dog for someone who enjoys the outdoors, such as hiking, walking, camping or just a leisure walk around the neighborhood. Jax would also excel at agility or a similar activity, he is a quick and agile guy. Jax can be a bit possessive of his person and his toys so he needs a person who while give him clear direction and corrections. He responds very well to verbal commands, he knows what is expected, but he likes to push those boundaries sometimes, he is still young after all. Jax is totally house and crate trained. He walks well on a leash and knows several commands such as sit, down, shake, drop it and stay. If Jax sounds like he would be a good fit for your life, he would love to meet you! He current on vaccines, microchipped, and neutered. We are accepting applications at https://www.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/SHPA/Dog
