Story
Tank is 4 years old, I’ve had him since he was a puppy. Unfortunately becoming a single parent and trying to handle working 50 plus hours a week, dogs, a baby and keeping up on the house is way too much, financially and mentally. He does get along with my other dogs (one female and one male), there has been 3 occasions where the two males did get into a little fight, he is calm and like nothing happened right after. That being said I think it may still be better for him to be an only dog, unless you know how to handle it. Any time I am home he doesn’t go to the bathroom in the house. When I’m not home he does go in the house, that’s with me working 8-14 hours. I have no help or no one to let them out.

Story
Rue is a 9 year old female Bernedoodle. She is loyal and loves attention / to snuggle. Gets along great with all people, kids, and animals. She takes proin daily for her bladder but she is house trained. She’s a great guard dog. She needs more attention than I can give her (I have toddler twins at home).

Story
Zelda and Betty are wonderful dogs with their own fun quirks. Zelda is loving and energetic but has a love for calm cuddles and love when it's time for bed. Betty loves her food and rest & is the gentlest dog I've ever met. The decision to rehome these 2 has been a heavy one. We just know they deserve so much more than what we can give them at this time. They are wonderful with babies & toddlers. Zelda does stay to chase toddlers when they run (the cattle dog in her), but takes corrections immediately. Betty is attentive to give kids space & is very gentle. Zelda does get excited & anxious & will whine & bark in those instances. Betty very rarely barks, if ever. They love each other and are very attached. Anyone with time & love for dogs would be blessed to have these 2.They are used to crates, but haven't been in one for long periods for some time. They are not great on a leash & are used to a larger (around 0.5 acre) yard.

Story
We are looking for a responsible, experienced forever home for our 5-year-old Australian Cattle Dog. He has been part of our family (mom, dad, and two kids) and lives happily with our two other dogs—he truly loves his housemates and is affectionate with the people he knows. He is an active, playful dog who thrives on walks, playtime, and interaction. He is highly intelligent, knows all his basic commands, and is obedient. He is great with our kids and very affectionate once he trusts you. Important notes for potential adopters: He can be protective when strangers come to the house, which is typical of the breed. We strongly recommend an experienced owner who understands Australian Cattle Dogs and can provide consistent leadership. Ideally, a home without frequent kids coming in and out would be the best fit. He also has a couple of endearing (and funny) quirks: he sometimes tries to “herd” the kitchen cabinets and will jump at tree branches. These are classic herding-breed behaviors.

Story
Arrows looking for a Job!Meet `Arrow`!This 5 year old Pit Bull mix, has so much to offer the right person. He is very intelligent, and loves nothing more than to work. Arrow is looking for a human that has experience with working dogs, and willing to put their knowledge to the test, giving him the gratification of performing a task he longs for. Arrow loves his naps but is not a couch potato, he would rather be outside in the water, or hunting for treats in the play yard. arrow loves to walk in the creek at Mingo park. He is not looking for all hugs and kisses instead a good belly rub and pat on the head with a `Good boy`, is all he needs as a reward. He knows all his basic commands, and walks well on a leash with proper exercise prior. He is dog neutral, but because of his work minded drive, being the only dog would be best suited for him. Arrow will need to meet all humans in the family. Because he has been in our care for the past 4 years, he may need a couple meet and greets to feel comfortable going home with a new person.
