Story
Benny was rescued in Texas and has adapted really well to being the best boy. He is the sweetest pit Bull mix you’ll meet. He loves people and loves to cuddle and play. He is 4.5-5 years old and is house trained. He’s really smart. Due to a new career shift that requires traveling for weeks at a time, Benny’s mom has made the heartbreaking decision to try and give him a better life by rehoming him with someone who can really take care of him (and she is very open to an open adoption!). He is aggressive with other dogs and very territorial. He needs someone with a yard, no other pets (at first), and dedicated to getting him better behaviorally trained. His behavior is not why he is getting rehomed — it is not his fault. Please help him find a real forever home. With rehoming, Benny needs to take his things! you will get the following: - two beds - food and water tray - water dispenser - food to last 2+ weeks - plenty of toys and treats.

Asher

American Eskimo Dog

Story
Hi my name is Asher! I am the ripe age of 4 and trained fairly well. I spend my days lounging around like a cat and daydreaming about my next meal. I am extremely food motivated. I’ll happily learn any trick for food. Currently I know sit, lay, roll, and down. I am potty trained and crate trained but I am used to roaming freely when I am home alone. On walks I handle my business very quickly so I can focus on the fun part - sniffing! I will need a gentle and patient introduction to other dogs because I am easily frightened. My instinct is to hide behind a friend for protection when I feel scared. I am looking for a home that will have lots of play, walks and love.

Walker

Staffordshire Bull Terrier

Male, Young
Boring, OR
Size
(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)
Details
Not good with dogs, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Walker is a very loving dog. He needs lots of attention and has never been alone. The reason we are re-homing him is because he and his brother have litter mate syndrome. We didn’t know of such a thing until it happened. He will turn 2 on Sept. 28. The home that Walker needs is a very loving and caring home. He is used to being with people all day everyday. He does sleep and eat in his kennel. He has had some training for basic commands. He is a nervous guy and takes a bit before he is used to someone. He loves sprinklers and toys! Loves treats and showers! He gets tucked in every night with lots of soft blankets. He enjoys the occasional pup cup and loves to go for a drive. He could potentially get along with another dog because he does get along with our daughter’s dog. Just haven’t had him in a position of meeting other dogs.

Story
Ranger is a great guy who needs lots of love and attention. He has never been alone. He loves to play and run outside. He is also very food motivated and is a good communicator. He loves structure and knows commands. We are having to re-home him due to litter mate syndrome. He will turn 2 on Sept. 28th. He needs a home where he will be played with and able to run. He eats and sleeps in his kennel. He gets tucked in every night with lots of soft blankets around 9pm. He enjoys the occasional pup cup and drive. He loves swimming pools and hanging out. He would make a good companion to go and do things. He is a talker and loves to make people friends. Not sure about other dogs (besides the dogs we have) but it seems like he would get along with other dogs as long as they are introduced properly.
