Story
Our family is experiencing many changes in a short period of time causing us to have to make this difficult decision to rehome our Luna Girl, she is almost 3 years old (born in July) and is Pitbull Terrier Mix. She is great with family and kids and was raised with another dog, but doesn't seem to adjust well to new dogs. She would do best in a single dog home where she can give and get all the love and attention she needs. She is house trained, crate trained while we are away from work and loves to give kisses and snuggle with you. She has always been an affectionate dog and would love for someone to get to share her like we have.

Story
Thor is 8 years old. He is great with all adults and children.we’ve had him for 4 years and he is great with everyone. He loves to play and is affectionate with everyone. He loves to travel in cars and when anyone sees him they want to pet him and he loves to be petted. We have food, bowls, leashes, shock collars and remotes. His only issues are anxiety issues. Always has to be with humans.We have 2 cats and he is good with them. We’re in our mid 70’s with health issues and we need to get him into a good home.

Story
We now have to rehome our dog Mylo. One of our kiddos has a pet allergy that was just diagnosed . We have had to keep him stored away in the basement since out of sight all day to accommodate. He is good with kids, house trained, seen and not heard from (unless he’s snoring) and we would like to find a loving home for him . He is a very relaxed dog, likes to lay outside and sunbathe or lay in the family room amongst people and chill out . We do not want to have to send him to a shelter but are running out of options and time . Serious inquiries only !

Story
This is Kaiser. I love him so much . I got him from a shelter in Georgia a little less than a month ago. He was about to euthanized due to kennel capacity. In his add it said GOOD WITH CATS. He is NOT. Very high prey drive. I have 2 and a bird. He needs to be the only pet. I don’t know how he does with other dogs. They would have to meet. He’s reactive to other animals from distances and I’m not sure that’s from the kennel. He did run with the other dogs in the kennel. He has anxiety and is a chewer. On anxiety meds. Needs lots of chew toys and supervision. He acts like a puppy in that manner. He is so gentle and a real lover. Needs lots of exercise and a fenced yard. Loves hikes, rivers, lakes, sand, pup cups, McDonalds and Chik Fil A. He’s a strong puller on leash so he needs training or a strong gentle adopter who knows positive reinforcement. I just love him and want the best home for him.

Story
Willow has arrived from a neglect/hoarding case and is looking for a Foster to Adopt home! She will be available for adoption around 6/10/26. --- Willow is ONLY available for Foster to Adopt until she is fully vaccinated. Meaning, she is still under responsibility of the rescue but, can enter a temporary foster home until she's ready to be adopted. All items are supplied during her foster period up until adoption. We do NOT do Foster to Adopt homes outside of the Rescue's local range however, once she's available for direct adoption, Iris will be eligible for long distance and out-of-state adoption. --- Willow has received her first round of vaccines on 4/23/26, and was dewormed. She weighs about 4 pounds at this time. We do NOT know what she is or how big she will get. We suspect her growth is slightly stunted from malnutrition. --- Adopters MUST have proof of training plans as puppies require training and work. https://form.jotform.com/243184639148060

Story
Cane just turned 2 years old on 3/16 & I got him from an old friend a few years ago after my uncle passed. He helped me get through the grieving process tremendously so eventually I made him my esa dog(I do have all the paperwork). Hopefully I can find someone with the space & time to love, play , care for him. Currently I’m in an apartment but he needs more space to work off his energy as he is very energetic. Also I couldn’t add this in above but cane is decent with other dogs really because it starts off as playing around then he wants the hump(excuse my language) other dogs no matter if it’s boy or girl idk why he’s been like this since I got him.
