Story
Ace is a very high energy dog. He loves to play outside and loves water. He plays well with our male Tibetan mastiff and loves to cuddle with our 8 year old son. But, he has had a difficult time adjusting to our new baby and does not like her. The vet says it is his breed to choose who is in his herd and he has decided that she is not unfortunately. We really would like him to find the perfect home that will love him just as much as we do and maybe more space for him to run around and play. Maybe another high energy dog to keep him company. He is still intact but we are willing to pay for the neuter if you would like. He knows sit, down, shake, up, wait and very easy to train as he is very food motivated. He has lived inside all his life so we would still like him to be an inside dog. He loves to be next to his people. Ace would love a meet and greet ! Purebred paperwork available shots are up to date and can get vet record Is currently on Nexguard flea and tick

Story
Mooney is such a cute guy. His mom is an English Shephed and his dad is a rolling stone. He is crate trained without accidents. He can be left in his crate during working hours and sleeping time. He does chew on everything so he needs strong chewer toys. He is very trainable with treats and is working on recall. He will sit and is working on shake, kennel and house. He does table surf and needs a firm owner who will teach him that it’s not ok. He will chase small animals but WILL stop when called. He has been around cats, and Foster's cats don't run, but feels sure if they did, he would chase them too, so dog savvy cats only. He does jump up on people because he is excited to meet them, and we are currently working on that and trying to get him to stop the humping. He walks well on leash. He is microchipped, UTD and on preventives. He does need to be neutered and there is a $50 refundable deposit that will be refunded upon proof of procedure.

This fine lady is Poncho. Her mom is an English Shepherd and her dad is a rolling stone, although she does seem to resemble a lab. She is a very pretty girl and has a very High prey drive and because of this she cannot be around cats. She needs a fenced yard for sure. She is crate and leash trained and is fairly good with recall. She is a very affectionate girl and loves her people and loves to snuggle with them. Like her brothers she is microchipped, UTD and on preventatives. She does need to be spayed and there is a $50 spay deposit that will be refunded upon proof of procedure. Needs spay.

Story
This handsome stud is Cirrus. He's full of sweet love and energy. He is very strong and the biggest of his litter. He is currently in a XXL kennel! He does well in his kennel and lets you know when he needs to go out when kenneled. He still has accidents in the house if not let out every 2 hours. Cirrus will table surf and needs work on his manners and needs some leash work as well. He is a very smart guy and learns quickly. He loves his treats or toys which makes teaching easier. Cirrus does have one weird obsession, he loves paper plates, . So this is part of the manners that he needs to work on. He is a very strong young man and does have descent recall. Being a puppy, he also loves to chew, so lots of strong chewer toys will be needed. He is UTD on his immunizations, microchipped and on preventives. He does need to be neutered and there is an additional $50 neuter deposit that will be refunded upon proof of neuter.

Story
This is Bella. She's listed as a Collie/Lab mix, but who knows. She was a stray but is very smart and knows basic commands. She is super sweet with people and if shes not curled up on her doggie-bed, she will want to cuddle or play with you. Bella is house trained and doesn't like spending too much time outside. She's a good girl, just doesn't get along with the other dog in the house and should be the only dog in your household. I really want to see this sweet girl go to a great home.
