Story
Marley is 3 years old and was adopted as a puppy. He is great with kids and gets along with our other dog. Unfortunately , due to a divorce , I can no longer take care of Marley the way he needs. And my ex husband apartment does not accept pets. I was also told Marley was going to 40 lbs when we got him at 12 weeks old , he has doubled in size - so grooming and walking him is tough for me to alone. He listens well and trains easily.

Story
Zeus is a great dog. He's ~7 and has been us since he was 1. He's ~62 lbs. He is very trainable and picks up new skills quickly with consistency. He loves walks, sunbathing and playing with toys. He's fully housetrained and walks well on leash. He loves cuddling and has a sweet demeanor. We feel best if he is the only dog in a house and one without small children just given his size. He's never shown aggression to our children, but is a little clumsy. Rehoming fee is just to ensure he finds a good home.
