Story
This is Ares! He is a 3-year-old dog who loves meeting new people and making new friends. He's incredibly friendly with everyone he meets and thrives on attention and affection. Ares does experience some separation anxiety, so he'll do best with someone who can be patient and help him continue building confidence. He loves long walks, hikes, and any opportunity to explore the outdoors. He's also a quick learner and enjoys picking up new tricks. He would do best with someone who’s very active. Does best with cats who are indifferent. Like many of his breed he gets mouthy when playing but does well with toys to help. He’s incredibly loving but unfortunately our cats are not adjusting well and our schedules make it hard to help work with his anxiety when no one is home.

Story
We have had Blue since he was a puppy and he's a typical husky. He's very expressive, and talkative, he will let you know when he is sad or happy. He's very athletic and has quite the jumping ability. He won't escape though. He fully understands boundaries and will stay in the yard even when the fence is open. He's very cuddly, which could be bad since he is a full grown dog. He is a happy boy and is leash trained, he is a little scared of strangers while he's on the leash, he only barks and has never shown aggression towards a human. The reason why we are rehoming him is because we have four dogs, and blue is a reactive dog. If he feels threatened he will unfortunately fight the other dog. He needs to go to a home with no other dogs present. He has had to spend more time in his crate than what we think is fair to any dog. So ideally, putting him in a home where he is more free is what we are looking for. Feel free to ask questions.

Story
I got Adobo in May of 2024 from a shelter where they told me he was around 1 years old. He's a very affectionate dog who LOVES to cuddle and is particularly fond of soft blankets. He is good with other dogs and loves to play with them, but not good with cats. He is neutered, up to date on vaccines, knows basic commands, and is extremely treat-motivated, which makes further training a positive and rewarding experience for him. I'm looking to rehome him because he's become overly protective of me so he will need a confident and experienced handler who can provide consistent leadership.

Australian Cattle Dog

Story
I have had ShadowBear since he was a puppy. He's really a giant goofball and so lovable. He's great with kids, and adults and people in general. His downside is that he unfortunately is reactive to other dogs. We have four dogs and if something sets him off it, it usually ends in a fight. Ideally he would be going to a home with no other dogs around. He's around 6 or 7 years old by now. Vet visits and vaccines are up to date. He's house and leash trained. He currently spends more time in his crate than what we find fair to any dog. He deserves a life where he is free and unbound and happy. He's a heeler, which comes with its own sets of challenges but also benefits as well. They are a very intelligent breed but can be equally as stubborn. He can only be adopted out to someone who is experienced. I am open to any and all questions about him.
