Story
Semi house trained (due to a few bathroom accidents in the house) He does not tare anything apart but love to have chews and treats! He like car rides and LOVE to be outside and run! I recommend him to be in a ONLY dog house since he's been attacked by a larger dog before and held a grudge. He LOVES kids! Eeyore can be timid around some males (just depends). Crate trained as well. Eeyore is not fixed and I have their AKC paperwork. He bonded partner is in the picture on here as well. Her name is Piglet and is a ACA Merle Pembroke Welsh Corgi. Please message me if you're interested in her as well! Also, willing able to take money off if they go with each other.

Honey

American Pit Bull Terrier German Shepherd Dog

Female, Young
Millersport, OH
Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
Details
Good with kids, Good with dogs, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
I originally adopted Honey as an 8week old puppy through a county shelter. She was one of 12 puppies! (mix of 17 breeds!) She will be 2 years old in Oct., but still very much has the puppy face, eyes, and body movements. We adore her goofy personality and she LOVES to snuggle at night. Unfortunately, some life changes have occurred in the last 6months that I would have never anticipated. This resulted in her being split up from her older canine friend and moving into a house that does not allow her the space to roam that she used to have. My schedule with work and sports results in her being alone and in a cage a large majority of the day and sometimes evening. She does love chewing things, but handles well being in a larger cage with a chew toy and a metal drinking dish. I would include any and all toys, food, leashes, and cages that I have for her. She is up to date on everything. I believe she needs another canine friend, but may take a couple of days to warm up.

Story
Colonel is a young, sweet and highly energetic Bloodhound. He is neutered and up to date on shots and. He is house trained for a dog door. He gets along well with other dogs and currently lives with both male and female hounds and small dogs. He does need some training on leash manners and would benefit from some formal training since he is still young. He needs a very secure fence as he can jump a shorter fence and climb some of the privacy fences. He cannot be around chickens' small animals.
