Story
Oreo is the sweetest lovable big dog! He is a gentle giant! He loves constant attention and wants to be your very best friend and side kick. He will follow you around wherever you go. He is excellent with kids (I have 4) and other animals. He has never even nipped at anyone. Oreo is very smart and trainable. He already knows sit, floor, bed, and outside. He is also leash trained for walks. He has been to the vet regularly, and is very well taken care of! He is house broken and crate trained. Unfortunately, I lost my job and can no longer care for him. I just want him to go to the best home!

Story
Coco came to us after we offered to help neighbors that had a house fire. We offered to house her for a few days and never heard from them again. From the day that we took her and her house mate, she has been nothing but friendly. She has been good with her house mate, and my 8 year old daughter. She is potty trained, not aggressive with food or toys. She rarely barks and just wants to be the center of attention. She has changed our view about the breed, however we already have two dogs in a small house and she needs a forever home.

Story
Pretty and Joy are pure bred shorthaired border collie sisters, 21 months old. Pretty is strong, and gentle. She desires to be obedient, listens and learns well. She has a strong herding instinct and would make a great working farm dog. Joy is energetic and playful. She needs more attention than Pretty and is a fun family pet. She likes playing tug and fetch, and would make a good agility dog if you wanted to teach her tricks. Both have lived outside full time with access to five acres on which they happily roam and play with our four boys. Ideally, a new home would offer lots of outdoor time and space like they are accustomed to. They could live indoors with outside time, but may not be compatible with other pets. They both play well with children and would be good as a family pet, companion, or working farm dogs. I prefer if they could go to the same family, but would be willing to re-home them separately.

Story
Me and my 2 girls adopted Hope from Sisca in March of this yr. She was 11 weeks old. She's VERY loving and hyper. We live in a townhouse and don't have a yard for to play in. We're moving to a smaller apt and I don't want to take her. I love Hope but she needs the space to run and play and we just don't have that. I don't want to get rid of our pup because we love her but I have to do what's best for her too. She is fully registered as a ESA for my daughter. Hope gets car sick so we weren't able to take many places so we just didn't take her training beyond the house. She is strong and will gladly take you for a walk. LOL she will laugh. She definitely has her own personality. Also she can eat through any toy we have bought. So that's been a challenge.
