Story

Alaska was rescued in 2021, after found wandering in the desert. She’s been a very good dog, is kind, gentle, doesn’t bark, and is good with other dogs and kids. I sustained a shoulder injury from a car accident and haven’t been able to walk her. Alaska pulls hard on a leash. I’ve tried multiple tools and training tips, but have never been able to truly resolve this. She’s been around kids the whole time she’s been with us. We have a four year old who has never warmed up to dogs and he doesn’t like her in his space. We moved last Fall and since the move I can see she’s become anxious, sad, and her life simply isn’t what we would want. We both have very demanding jobs and find ourselves exhausted. The move has been hard and we want better for this sweet baby. She’s truly a wonderful dog. Probably the best I’ve ever had. She is probably around 6 now.

Story

Ella is somewhere between 1 and 2 years old and weighs 9lbs. She was found abandoned on the streets in February and we adopted her not long after. She is a super sweet loyal girl. She doesn’t usually bark, even when people come to the door (even the mailman!)She is playful and cuddly and loves running. She hops like a bunny when she’s happy it’s really cute. She’s great with my 4 kids, but is not getting along well with our cat. Ella needs a loving family who can let her exercise regularly with a fenced in yard or multiple walks a day.She is a great pet and we are sad that it is not working out for us.She is up to date on all her shots, is spayed and microchipped and just had a vet checkup, got her dewormer medication and flea and tick. I have 6 more months of her medication that I’m willing to pass on at cost plus add in for free all her food, bowls, leashes, winter coats, sweaters and other gear we got for her.

Story

Have you ever wanted a goofy 93 lb. lap dog?? Prince is your guy!! We were finally able to pull Prince from the shelter, thanks to our wonderful fosters!! Prince is a loveable, playful, charming guy who is good with other pups and is fantastic with cats! He is up to date on vaccines & vetting. He was euth listed at a local shelter after a minor bite incident in which he clearly expressed discomfort and his warning signals were ignored. He was a staff/volunteer favorite, while at the shelter. He is with foster parents who are extremely dedicated to setting all of the dogs that they foster up for success, They really work to understand their quirks & work through any issues they might have. Prince is really becoming his best self, and is ready to find his forever family. He is muzzle trained. Prince does prefer a quiet, adult only household. He is somewhat slow to warm up to new people, especially men. If you are patient & give him enough treats and calm slow interactions, he will end up being your best friend.

Story

Welcome Pork-Chop to the rescue! He is a little over a year old, & 103 lbs. of adorableness. He is working on getting up to date on vaccines & vetting. He will be neutered prior to adoption. He will also be getting some training, once we find him a foster or foster to adopt home. He is a very happy, friendly boy, but needs to learn some manners. He does well with all humans, other than potentially knocking over small humans when he is excited. He loves playing with other dogs, and while he is curious about cats, he doesn’t show any reaction when swatted by a cat. We are looking for a strong adopter with Rottweiler experience.
