Story
This is malenia, she was born on 07/01/2024 so she is almost 2 years old! Me and my girlfriend got her from a coworker that needed to find her a home ASAP and we gladly took her in. She was the runt of her litter so she didnt get as nearly as big as her brothers and sisters and a key note about her is her mother had sat on her when she was a pup so she has some difficulty staying steady with her back hips, we havent gotten a proper diagnosis from a vet but we were told it could be hip dysplasia. She is a very friendly high energy dog that loves to play and also cuddle. Me and my girlfriend just had a baby boy and are relocating to a different home that has too strict of a pet policy for our liking so unfortunately are looking for a new home for this sweet bundle of joy. As for what kind of adopter we are looking for, just someone that is capable of taking care of her and fulfilling her everyday needs. She is house trained and will let you know when she needs to go out.

Nova came to our house as a puppy. She is 9 years old. She is a mixed boxer breed and very gentle. She likes to cuddle. She eats dry dog food. She loves to run outside and explore the back yard but does not like cold or wet weather. She will come in when called. In the house she is a good watch dog and will bark when she hears people walking past or someone in the driveway. She loves to be petted and brushed. Her spay has been scheduled for May 28. She is past the puppy stage so would make a great companion for your home.

Story
Leuke is a mini Aussie! I got leuke from my best friend who was trying to find him a home (due to moving), we had previously adopted Leukes son and thought it’d be good to have them together, they have previously gotten along.He is 3 years old and we’ve had him for about 5 months Leuke seems to do fine with our cats, but he’s gotten very territorial with my other male dog (his son) We were told he had mild food aggression, it’s seems to be more moderate. Growling when any of the animals get close, and sometimes snipping at them, he does well with cage feeding and feeding separately from other animals. He does seem to get stressed around younger children, but does well around my 10 year old. He is really a very friendly dog, very loyal, and wants nothing but lovins and attention. He would just do best in a slower environment with lots of room to run.
