Story
Shela is a mixed breed of lab/boxer/Belgian malanoise. She is FULL of energy. She loves getting pets and doing zoomies. She does have to warm up to you at first. But she loves love. She is just too much for me to handle. We have cats in the home. She leaves 2 of them alone but terrorizes the other one. She plays hard. My 3 year old granddaughter comes over once a week and Shela wants attention from her but she is a bit too rambunctious for my granddaughters liking. She does still chew things up and has accidents now and then. She needs a lot of exercise to run off her energy and I am not doing her justice as I work a lot

Story
I am looking to re-home my girl Zoey, age 4. I got Zoey for my daughter when she was 8-wks old. Due to homelessness circumstances I have to look for the best home for her. She is pad (washable) trained. She is an indoor dog, so being outdoors for longer than several minutes scares her. She does suffer from separation anxiety. She loves playing with toys, she can be very excitable at times but mostly she is a huge cuddle type and craves teddy bear attention. She's good with cats as long as you introduce them and she is good with other dogs. She is a lovable doggie and will lick your face a lot. She is very playful. She can be quite calm and at times can be quite hyper. I have a running line in the backyard and she loves to run for exercise. She is still a young adult dog and loves to be the center of our attention. She lays with us on the couch when we watch a movie. She will make a wonderful addition to any animal loving family forever home.

Story
We have 3 dogs and unfortunatly we have to rehme one, shes a great dog, listens is not agressive, shes pretty quiet, but she also makes a good gaurd dog, thats really the only time she barks. We wish we could keep here, we just dont have the space, or extra money because we have a baby on the way. So it would be very nice to see her go to a family that can give her attention and love her, we hope we dont have to surrendur her..and not know what happem to her.

Story
We are a bonded pair. We are 2 years old. We were born 12/09/20. Hershey is very sweet and loves attention. She is a very sweet lower energy dog. She loves to carry her toys around. It calms her down immediately. She loves to be around people and she’s very social. Food is the way to her heart. She is submissive and sweet and loves as much as attention as she can get. She is crate trained. She shares a crate with her sister. Reeses is a very sweet, high energy dog. She does get nervous in a new environment and/or without her sister. Reeses loves to chew bones and play fetch. She will gladly lie down by you and chew her bone quietly. Chewing a bone calms her down when she gets excited. She loves to greet you with a friendly growl and tail wag. She is very smart. She learns quickly. They haven’t been separated since they were born. They would need to be adopted together. They both have a lot of energy so they need a lot of playtime and space to play.

Story
I adopted Cavalier (goes by Cav) as a puppy. He is 7 years old. He is a bit hyper and timid around new people but warms up quickly. The key with Cav is to ensure he is getting his exercise in. He loves hikes, walks and playing fetch. He does well around other dogs and kids. It’s very important for him to have a backyard to play in. Unfortunately I am only rehoming him due to an upcoming move and a lot more travel for work.

Story
We found this pup in our neighborhood and our local shelters are full. He's been staying in our back yard for now. (He can't come inside due to a family members allergies). He loves people, good with kids and dogs. I'd guess he's about a year old. He still has some puppy in him, but is not too hyper. Hes not fixed. I'd guess about 30-40lbs. Please let us know if you know anyone that can help.
