Story
Marshall is an amazing boy, due to financial and living changes I am unable to care for him like he needs and I can no longer afford to. Marshall has allergies and requires frequent baths and an allergy shot every 3 months. Marshall has a special diet where he needs to eat little protein and little starch. Marshall is on a salmon and sweet potato food which has made a huge difference. Marshal lives with young children and two cats. He is a very gentle and protective dog. We all love him so much.

Story
Sweet Momma Bee is up for adoption!Bee came from a rough start with her 5 one week old puppies and has since been in foster care raising her pups. It's time she finds her happy ending in her forever home.Bee's low-key and affectionate personality makes her an ideal family dog. She is house trained and non-destructive when left alone in the home. On walks, she is curious of the world around her and has been walking well using a martingale collar. When she sees dogs she starts play bounding with excitement, that being said, she has not officially be tested with other dogs. Bee has not been tested with cats yet either, but given she has some small animal prey drive a cat free home would likely be best for her. When out in the backyard she enjoys patrolling the yard for all those pesky squirrels and when inside loves sitting in the front window just watching the world go by or snuggling on the couch watching TV. Bee is also food motivated and eager to please, which gives her endless possibilities to learn new skills.All in all, Bee is a good natured and well-mannered German shepherd cross that would enjoy a family with a love for going on adventures.If you are interested in Bee, please call to book an appointment (705) 878-4618
